"Depression weighs you down like a rock in a river. You don't stand a chance. You can fight and pray and hope you have the strength to swim, but sometimes, you have to let yourself sink. Because you'll never know true happiness until someone or something pulls you back out of that river--and you'll never believe it until you realize it was you, yourself who saved you."
― Alysha Speer
"My Dear Son,
I am so very proud of you. Now, as you embark on a new journey, I'd like to share this one piece of advice. Always, always remember that - adversity is not a detour. It is part of the path.
You will encounter obstacles. You will make mistakes. Be grateful for both. Your obstacles and mistakes will be your greatest teachers. And the only way to not make mistakes in this life is to do nothing, which is the biggest mistake of all.
Your challenges, if you let them, will become your greatest allies. Mountains can crush or raise you, depending on which side of the mountain you choose to stand on. All history bears out that the great, those who have changed the world, have all suffered great challenges. And, more times than not it's precisely those challenges that, in God's time, lead to triumph.
Abhor victimhood. Denounce entitlement. Neither are gifts, rather cages to damn the soul. Everyone who has walked this earth is a victim of injustice. Everyone.
Most of all, do not be too quick to denounce your sufferings. The difficult road you are called to walk may, in fact be your only path to success."
― Richard Paul Evans, A Winter Dream
"I am the bended, but not broken. I am the power of the thunderstorm. I am the beauty in the beast. I am the strength in weakness. I am the confidence in the midst of doubt. I am Her!"

― Matshona Dhliwayo
"The most difficult battles in life are those we fight within. - Old Chinese Proverb"

"Friction is necessary. Ease of life leads to complacency and the atrophy of the human will and spirit. Within our struggles lives our strength, within our trials lives our triumphs. Friction creates a platform for change, generates heat and or fervor and creates a motivational charge that gives us an opportunity to be better. A gem cannot be polished without friction and so neither a person without hardships. Friction within and friction without sharpens our senses and revives our internal resolutions. Friction is uncomfortable, hardships are distressing but both are necessary. We cannot light a match without friction nor can we hone steal. Uncomfortable as it may be, our adversity ultimately lights a fire and sharpens our very will to flourish. Today, let us not be discouraged, let us not be bitter in our suffering rather let us be encouraged as we look to our trials as a medium that will eventually make us better."
― Jason Versey, A Walk with Prudence
"God does not want our faith kept in mothballs, so He sometimes allows trials and testing to come into our lives; the unexpected hardships and heartbreaks that rock us in places we never thought we'd face as a child of God. And it's in those defining moments that we knock off the cobwebs of our everyday faith and face life with a new and improved one that's empowered by God Himself."
― Ron Lambros, All My Love, Jesus: Personal Reminders From the Heart of God
"If you knew all the answers, there'd be no need for trust, little one."
― Patti Callahan, Becoming Mrs. Lewis
"Sometimes life takes you into a dark place where you feel it's impossible to breathe. You think you've been buried, but don't give up, because if truth be told, you've actually been planted."
― Karen Gibbs
"Life is an endless trial and death its certain verdict, but there are many recesses to enjoy before then."
― Stewart Stafford
"When you are being tested, strive to make God's honor roll"
― Tony Cleaver
"It is written that God cursed the ground for man's sake. Genesis 3:17. The thorn and the thistle—the difficulties and trials that make his life one of toil and care—were appointed for his good as a part of the training needful in God's plan for his uplifting from the ruin and degradation that sin has wrought."
― Ellen G. White, Steps to Christ
"Our man, it seems, being human was a walking welcome mat for many problems"
― David R. Bunch, Moderan

― EBINEZAR GNANASEKARAN
"Life gives you what you settle for."
― James Serengia
"In reality, the toxic of examinations don't really matter! It is, however, the lens with which we look at examinations that determines how the examinations of life rule us or how we are able overcome the hardships of life examinations with a good understanding."
― Ernest Agyemang Yeboah, Toxic In The Mind: daily use of the mind that kills you slowly

"When life spirals out of control, you start to grab onto everything you can. Eventually, you stop spinning, but it's hard to say what finally grounded you. Was it the many things you experienced during the trial or just the last thing you held onto?"
― Tammy L. Gray, Until I Knew Myself
"Trials there must be upon this earth. We are made of a stuff that easily corrupts when nothing calls to order, when a sign from the Lord does not reach us soon enough. Do not complain that destiny has rent your soul; For God knows best what will help us."
― Frithjof Schuon, Autumn Leaves & The Ring: Poems By Frithjof Schuon
"You see most people don't believe that miracles still exist. They believe those things ended with the disciples. I will gladly tell them our story and let them see that God is still working. Through all of my struggle and pain I want people to know that when we look at the storm of life and become afraid, God is there protecting us from the winds and lighting."
― Andrew Golden, The Storm That Grew My Faith: When you pray for rain, sometimes God sends a thunderstorm
"Has anyone ever said to you, "God never gives you more than you can bear?" Don't you hate that? That's because it's not true. Sometimes, God gives us far more than we can bear so that, by our prayer and the prayer of others, we will rely on Him only, so that when God delivers us, we will be comforted. With stronger faith, we can comfort others when they are going through their own trials."
― Bob Jennerich, Facing Life's Challenges Head On: How Jesus Gets You Through What You Can't Get Around

Trials are temporary"
