Quote

When nobody else celebrates you, learn to celebrate yourself. When nobody else compliments you, then compliment yourself. It's not up to other people to keep you encouraged. It's up to you. Encouragement should come from the inside.

You can get bitter, discouraged and sour, or you can see it as fertilizer and say, “ This difficulty is not going to defeat me it's going to promote me. It's not going to hinder me it's going to help me.” Don't just go through it, grow through it.

Sometimes in life, a fog sets in and you don't know which way is the right direction. Every voice may tell you it's not going to happen, but God has placed a promise in your heart. Refuse to listen to those voices. Keep believing.
