Some circumstances can be controlled, but others may occur without any opportunity to change them. Often people take credit when something goes right, but when things fail the circumstances are commonly blamed instead of the individual taking personal responsibility. No matter what circumstances you find yourself in how you react will reveal your true character as a person.
Sometimes I just look up, smile and say, I know that was you, Lord! Thank you for all you do for me.
Stand in faith even when you are having the hardest time of your life.
Remember, most of your stress comes from the way you respond, not the way life is.
If I told you my story you'd be stuck wondering how I smile everyday.
