    I believe that server a God who is big enough to fix any situation as long as you stay focused on Him. You have to take your hands off of it and let Him move though because He shares His glory with no man. You just keep holding on and it will all work together for His will and purpose

    I think good things do happen to everyone. Its up to them to count the blessings instead of the problems.

    I've always believed that the hard times i've been through have been to teach me something and have made me stronger as a person. Its hard to make sense of things when you are going through them, but looking back on several rough times in my life, God was in complete control and I was there for a purpose.
    Going through the valleys makes the mountain top views all that more amazing. And it makes me so appreciative of the good times and good people that I'm blessed to know. If every day were sunny and perfect, then they would just be ordinary.
    Good luck on your journey and stay positive.

    IMO, it's whatever someone makes of it. They can decide to make it good or bad. I'm an optimist so I ALWAYS think there's a light at the end of every tunnel.
