I'm jealous. I'm mad. I feel bad. But one day, I woke up and I thought, you know what? This is wearing me out. And I'm not getting anywhere.

Resist the need to be 'right' all the time or to always have the last word.
Joyce Meyer

We may feel fear but we do not have to give in to it. We can do whatever we need and want to do, even if we have to do it afraid. Courage is not the absence of fear it is action in the presence of fear.

God doesn’t tell you to do hard things so He can stand back and laugh and watch you struggle. He tells you to do things the things that He knows are gonna work out to your good in the end.
