Never look down on anybody unless you're helping him up. ~Jesse Jackson

You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

You life will go in the direction of your most dominant thoughts. When your thoughts are focused on the past, it hinders your growth. Your thoughts of the past hold you back, causing you to relive those events over and over again. But when you look straight ahead at the future God has planned for you, then you can move forward. It's just like driving a car. If your rearview mirror were as big as your windshield, you wouldn't get very far. You would just sit there looking at what's behind you. But when you fix your eyes on your future, the past disappears. Choose today to look straight ahead by forgiving those who have hurt you in your life. And it doesn't matter if it was years ago or just yesterday. Choose today to look straight ahead and move forward into the life of blessing God has in store for you!

After all, God chose you to suffer as you follow in the footsteps of Christ, who set an example by suffering for you. (1 Peter 2:21)

 

[GraceAbounds]

Bitterness is an extremely destructive force. It seeps into the depths of your heart when you choose not to forgive someone. When you harbor unforgiveness, it closes the door to God’s working in your life. The Bible even tells us that if we choose not to forgive others, God cannot even hear our prayers. Thank God that He has empowered us to forgive and release bitterness! You have the choice to get rid of bitterness so you can live in freedom! You may have been through unfair situations, but it’s not over until God says it’s over. God always has the final say, and He is a God of justice. God sees every wrong that’s ever been done to you. He sees every unfair situation. If you will stay in faith and keep your hopes up, He will make your wrongs right. He’ll bring justice into your life. Your attitude should be, “It may have been unfair. They may have done me wrong. But I refuse to get bitter. I know my time is coming.” As you choose forgiveness and keep your thoughts focused on the Word of God, you will walk in complete freedom in every area of your life!

So let's not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don't give up. (Galatians 6:9)

 

[GraceAbounds]

When all the world is looming dark
And things seem not so clear,
When shadows seem to hover 'round
Lord, may I persevere.



When it seems everything's been tried
And there's no way to go,
Just let me keep remembering
Sometimes the journey's slow.



I may just need to stop and rest
Along the path I trod,
A time to try to understand
And have my talk with God.



As I gain new strength to carry on
Without a doubt or fear,
Somehow I know things will be right,
And so, I persevere.

 

[Mrs Behavin]

When it seems everything's been tried
And there's no way to go,
Just let me keep remembering
Sometimes the journey's slow.

I really like this one. It seems to hit home right now

[GraceAbounds]

I've been through really rough times too. And I understand the loneliness and the pain. And I know sometimes it feels like you are all alone, but truly I say to you that you are never alone. I'm sincere when I say hang in there. You are worth so much.

 

[Suzie]

On the mountains of truth you can never climb in vain: either you will reach a point higher up today, or you will be training your powers so that you will be able to climb higher tomorrow.

sometimes you just need to take a step back and breath...things will settle down soon

[GraceAbounds]

It doesn't take much for us to idealize people, making them larger than life. In doing this, we embellish humanity and often fortify ourselves with faulty hopes and dreams. We do this particularly with the past heroes of faith. They too were, like us, men and women of ability and with great potential, but fraught with vulnerability and self-interest. It is not on Peter that God promises that He will build His church, but on Peter the believer in Jesus Christ. It is not our greatness that will further the kingdom of God, but our daring to believe the claims of Jesus and to take them seriously for the way we live.
