    I am always inspired by Eleanor Roosevelt quotes, these are just a few of my favorites:

    “You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do.” :heart: My absolute favorite quote :heart:

    “Every time you meet a situation you think at the time it is an impossibility and you go through the tortures of the damned, once you have met it and lived through it, you find that forever after you are freer than you were before.”

    “You can often change your circumstances by changing your attitude”

    One of my favorites:

    All things work together for the good of those that love the Lord and are called according to his purpose.

    It's a Bible quote that reminds me that no matter how bad things look, it will turn out to be for my good. I've been through some hard times, but God blessed me through those situations. Joseph's jealous brothers sold him into slavery, he was taken to Egypt where he became like a president of the nation and helped the nations of the world during a famine. He saw his brothers during this time and told them that what they did they meant for evil, but God meant it for good.
