{quotes}
Passing Through
I shall pass through this world but once. Any good, therefore, that I can do or any kindness I can show to any human being, let me do it now. Let me not defer it or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.
Stephen Grellet
End of the Day
At the end of the day, we can endure much more than we think we can.
Frida Kahlo
Improve Yourself
The safest principle through life, instead of reforming others, is to set about perfecting yourself.
Benjamin Haydon
Pass the Test
God does not give a person a test they can not pass.
Yosef Palacci
Routine
Patience and trust in the dullness of the routine of life will be the best preparation for a courageous bearing of the tug and strain of the larger opportunity which God may sometime send you.

{blessings}
Spiritual Healing
May God bless you to be the one who can ease the pain of someone suffering. Even if you can’t help them physically, you will be able to help them spiritually.
Answered Prayers
That thing you’ve never stopped praying for is finally coming to fruition. God will soon bless you with answered prayers.
Angel on the Way
There’s an angel on the way to bless you and set you straight. Have faith. Trust that a correction is coming soon.
Be Humble.
Some people think humility is thinking less of yourself. But that’s not what it means. True humility is thinking less about yourself. Be blessed. Be humble.
Nothing Can Stop You
Nothing stands in your way today. No barrier can hold back the blessings you are about to receive. Open your arms wide and reach out to grasp God’s gift.
{prayers}
Joy Enters
Dear God. Clear this space in my heart and move things out of the way so I can worship You without the clutter of doubts and denial. In my new mindset, praise and gratitude overcomes me. Joy enters. Contentment prevails.
Live With Intention
Empower me. I go through the motions, and I miss the miracles. Teach me to live with intention. Remind me to live in the moment. All praise goes to You, almighty God, who stays my restless spirit.
My Maker
I have these spare moments of time to reflect on the marvel of my Maker—the glory of having You in my life, always with me, never forsaken. How magnificent that You made the sun rise this morning, and I am here to spend another day walking in Your way. Thank You.
No Gossip
Dear God, I make a commitment to You to use my words in truth and kindness, to stop the flow of gossip and innuendo, and to distance myself from others’ negative speech. I will do all this with gentle gestures. I will do all this to honor You.
Rise Up
I am willing to rise above all circumstances in order to accept my part in healing the world by living with integrity, love, honor, compassion, and goodness. All praise to You, Holy Father, who guides the way.
