Strength

Strength is born in the deep silence of long-suffering hearts;
not amid joy.
Felicia Hermans

I know that I will learn from the trials that I experience in life. I know that God will bring me through these times. Why then do I agonize over them? Why do I let these trials get the best of me?

There is a wonderful book a read - I can't remember the author, but the title is "Hinds Feet on High Places". Whenever I am going through trials in my life, I think of this book. God is always there with us. He lets us go through these trials to strengthen us. I know this from the past. I wonder if, when I am old, will I find peace in my trials, knowing that God has a greater plan for me, and, thru these trials, He will give me a wonderful life.

Time Savings Tip

When you feel overwhelmed, that you cannot accomplish everything, sometimes it's best to take a time out. Relax, rest, and rejuvenate yourself!
