31 days of reflection {day 26} words and thoughts

I spent a lot of time this past weekend just reading words and thoughts and I came across some great words with meaning to me. Here are a few that really resonated with me and hit me and my soul! I am sharing these with you.

“it all begins and ends in your mind. What you give power to, has power over you.”

“Self love – once when I was running from all that haunted me; to the dark I was succumbing to all that hurt unbearably. Searching for the one thing, that would set my sad soul free. In time I stumbled upon it, and inner calm and peace; and now I am beginning to see and believe, in who I am becoming – and all I’ve yet to be.”

“A successful person is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at them.”

“A season of loneliness and isolation is when the caterpillar gets it wings, remember that next time you feel alone”.

“Faith includes noticing the mess, the emptiness, the discomfort and letting it be there until some light returns.”

“During a storm, hope gives us the ability to look at the things as they are and still be confident that something better is coming.”

“One of the most scariest things in life, is when you come to the realization that the only thing that can save you is yourself.”

“Patience is the calm acceptance that things can happen in a different order than the one you have in mind.”

“Pause and remember, at any moment you have the power to say this is enough and radically change the course of your destiny. Have the faith and courage to follow your hears calling.”

“After your season of suffering, God in all his grace will restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.”

“Truth is always found in the open, by the way of the light. Living in the open is scary because it requires vulnerability. Nakedness. It requires us to lay down our deeply en-wrenched beliefs that perception is reality and find the courage to be who we are with our whole hearts. It means understanding that what we look for in others is the ability for them to be authentic and vulnerable with us – the same things we try to hide or suppress in ourselves.”
