I don’t know what I don’t know. Everything I know I had to learn. Until I learned how to live without fear, fear drove my thoughts, feelings, and actions. I didn’t even realize it at the time. Now I see it. Now, I need to recognize my fears and turn them over to God. It

God answers my prayers. Not on my terms, but His. Not in my time, but His. So, if I get impatient with God and feel like giving up, I need to look around me. Perhaps what I’m praying for has already been answered. Perhaps I’m so self-involved that I didn’t notice. The answers

There was a time when I didn’t think I would survive very long. I could not foresee what my life would be like if I did make it. By taking care of each day, one day at a time, I have survived. My life did not unfold as I ever imagined it would. I am

I can’t please everyone. I just need to be consistent in what I do and how I treat people. I need to accept others for how they are, whether it pleases me or not. I must trust God to guide me in how I treat others today and to help me accept them as they

When I was lost, I wasn’t very good at asking for directions. I pretended to know what I was doing until I found that I felt totally alone. I had abandoned all good sense and had ventured into a dark place that I couldn’t return from on my own. I did not realize that God
