Life is going to give you a gutful of reasons to be angry kid, you only need to be grateful.
God doesn't promise our stories will make sense, but He does promise they'll find their greater purpose if we're patient.
It ain't giving up, it's the giving for. Like anything.. it's struggle that brings you closer to God.
You can't fool God.
My suffering is a gift from God. In this life, no matter how long it lasts, it's a momentary affliction preparing us for eternal glory.
I could have used God's help for a lot of things, but I never could find Him. My son said, 'God wasn't lost.'
This life, no matter how long it lasts, is a momentary affliction preparing us for eternal glory. We shouldn't pray for an easy life, but the strength to endure a difficult one. Because the experience of suffering is the fullest expression of God's love. It is a chance to be closer to Christ.
It's a profound experience, suffering. And the struggles of this disease help me, and help others, to learn the way that we should have been living all along. It's taught me a little humility. It's taught me, dignity & respect for others. Sometimes people like me- There's an extreme example. We need things like this to be able to make those changes and decisions in our life that are gonna help us become better people. Become the people that God has created us to be when he sent us to this planet.
You have to learn the hard way how to live in the light.
No one suffers perfectly.. even Christ had his moments of despair.

God doesn't make mistakes.
