Don't let your past circumstances disqualify you from what God has in store for your future. - Tracie Miles
World
The world is so full of pain and confusion, but also such extravagant beauty, that sometimes it is in beauty that we best hear God whisper, 'I am still here.' - Madeleine L'Engle
God's Word

Rest
Rest will never come by trying to figure it all out. It only comes by trusting the One who has it all figured out for you. - Paul David Tripp
Into Words
He liked all books because he liked the mere act of reading, the magic of turning scratches on a page into words inside his head. - John Green
Read with a Pen
Read with a pen in your hand and enter in a little book short hints of what you find that is curious or that might be useful; for this will be the best method of imprinting such particulars in your memory, where they will be ready on some future occasion to adorn and improve your conversation. - Benjamin Franklin
Wellness
If you won't make time for your wellness, you'll be forced to make time for your illness. - Jill Savage
Hard Place
This hard place in which you, perhaps, find yourself, is the very place in which God is giving you opportunity to look only to Him. - Elisabeth Elliot
Like Breathing

God's Word
There's treasure just waiting for us every day in God's Word, and it will totally transform everything about our lives. - David Platt

Fingerprints of Heaven
Don't feel discouraged if the mission seems too big. It's a good sign that it's got the fingerprints of heaven on it. - Kathryn Scott
Prayer
Do not think that your prayer, however weak or trembling, will be unheard. - Charles H. Spurgeon
Handwritten Letter
A handwritten letter is a quiet rebellion against a fast and forgetful world. It says, "I slowed down for you." Each stroke of pen is a gesture of care, a whisper of presence, a way of saying, "You matter enough for this." - Author Unknown
