Food For Thought
God didn't promise days without pain,
laughter without sorrow, sun without rain,
but He did promise strength for the day,
comfort for the tears, and light for the way.
Disappointments are like road humps,
they slow you down a bit but you enjoy the smooth road afterwards.
Don't stay on the humps too long. Move on!
When you feel down because you didn't get what you want,
just sit tight and be happy,
because God is thinking of something better to give you.
When something happens to you, good or bad, consider what it means.
There's a purpose to life's events,
to teach you how to laugh more or not to cry too hard.
You can't make someone love you,
all you can do is be someone who can be loved,
the rest is up to the person to realize your worth.
What the heart gives away is never gone... It is kept in the hearts of others.
Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risks.
Secure a special place in your heart. A certain place only you can enter.
For there will come a time when you need to find yourself and only
your heart will show you the way.
The measure of love is when you love without measure.
In life there are very rare chances that you'll meet the person you
love and loves you in return.
So once you have it don't ever let go, the chance might never come
your way again.
It's better to lose your pride to the one you love, than to lose the
one you love because of pride.
We spend so much time looking for the right person to love or
finding fault with those we already love,
when instead we should be perfecting the love we give.
When you truly care for someone, you don't look for faults,
you don't look for answers, you don't look for mistakes.
Instead, you fight the mistakes,
you accept the faults, and you overlook excuses.
Never abandon an old friend.
You will never find one who can take his place.
Friendship is like wine, it gets better as it grows older.

I really like the first one, because it is so true. God wants us so badly and wants us to be holy so badly that He will let us go through all sorts of things to draw us closer to Him.
