“Great is Your presence, Lord. Great is Your peace. Great is Your truthfulness. Blessed be are we.”

Love. There are no barriers against its infinite power, my child, save for those we impose upon ourselves.

Yes, my child, in this world, following your heart, remaining true to your soul, is sometimes the bravest thing you’ll ever do.

Recovery isn’t an end-game. It’s an every day, by the grace of God, I choose me, I choose them, I’ve come this far, I will not go back, war for my soul that I will not lose.

We are not saved in order to be a blessing to other people.

Turn your attention for a while away from the worries and anxieties. Remind yourself of all your many blessings.

Life is the same way. In order to attract more of the blessings that life has to offer, you must truly appreciate what you already have.

You are never used of God to bring blessing until God has opened your eyes and made you see things as they are.

A true friend is the greatest of all blessings, and that which we take the least care of all to acquire.

As I lift up my eyes to Him and accept it as coming from the throne of God for some great purpose of blessing to my own heart.

To be able to thank Allah for a blessing is a blessing within itself.
