Faith is why I'm here today and faith is why I made it through.

You need to spend time crawling alone through shadows to truly appreciate what it is to stand in the sun.
~ Shaun Hick
Life is at its best when everything has fallen out of place, and you decide that you're going to fight to get them right, not when everything is going your way and everyone is praising you.
~ Thisuri Wanniarachchi
There had been times when he knew, somewhere in him, that he would get used to it, whatever it was, because he had learnt that some hard things became softer after a very little while.
~ Nick Hornby
Often, moreover, it is...that aspect of our being that society finds eccentric, ridiculous, or disagreeable, that holds our sweet waters, our secret well of happiness, the key to our equanimity in malevolent climes.
~ Tom Robbins
Our vision is so limited we can hardly imagine a love that does not show itself in protection from suffering.... The love of God did not protect His own Son.... He will not necessarily protect us - not from anything it takes to make us like His Son. A lot of hammering and chiseling and purifying by fire will have to go into the process.
~ Elisabeth Elliot
A sense of the divine presence and indwelling bears the soul towards heaven as upon the wings of eagles.

And hard times are good in their own way, too. Because the only way you can achieve true happiness is if you experience true sadness as well. It's all about light and shade. Balance.
~ Gabrielle Williams
The way I see it, hard times aren't only about money,or drought,or dust.Hard times are about losing spirit,and hope,and what happens when dreams dry up.

Why wait? So precious is this life—this gift—this temporary blindness. Burn and drown and embrace the false dark, then grasp the unthinkable height of resulting joy. For in the end, in the light of truth when the flesh is cast off, there is nothing but this.
~ Jennifer Delucy
There never was, for all I could ever learn, a time when living was easy and peaceful.
~ Ellis Peters
We all go through hard times in life. It’s a part of being alive and it's the reality we all have to deal with. There are times we forget our value as a person because we are so blinded with these thoughts of loneliness, emptiness and ego. Somewhere along the road we become numbed with all the frustrations and dissatisfaction. But life itself isn't always about darkness and sadness, Life is also filled with colors and that makes it beautiful. Along this path of darkness there's always light waiting to be seen by our daunted hearts. Our heart is gifted to see this light. It may be hiding behind those circumstances that we encounter; in a stranger we just met at an unexpected place; a family who has been always there but you just ignored because of your imperfect relationship with them; it might be a long time friend you have or a friend you just met. Open your heart and you will see how blessed you are to have them all in your life. Sometimes they are the light that shines your path in some dark phases of life. Don't lose hope
~ Chanda Kaushik

~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Life challenges are unavoidable. We only need to develop new strategies overcome every challenge. And by faith we can graciously triumph.
We have come here together so that you might know, through virtue of your own pain, your own hopelessness, your own fear, your own darkness and the lie of powerlessness, the very actual power of your own will, of the will of your soul.
See your hard times through the spectacles of your experiences. They, too, shall pass away.
~ Ogwo David Emenike
It's hard at times, but it makes a kid strong in ways that most people can't understand. Teaches them that even though people are left behind, new ones will inevitable take their place; that every place has something good - and bad - to offer. It makes a kid grow up fast.
~ Nicholas Sparks
It’s true that no one ever said life would be easy, but it is also true that no one ever said you had to go through it alone.
~ Jellis Vaes
Peace doesn’t deny difficulty, but it has an inner calm and quietness even while enduring the difficulty.
~ Glenn C. Stewart
Humor can make a serious difference. In the workplace, at home, in all areas of life – looking for a reason to laugh is necessary. A sense of humor helps us to get through the dull times, cope with the difficult times, enjoy the good times and manage the scary times.
~ Steve Goodier
But there was a special kind of gift that came with embracing the chaos, even if I cursed most of the way. I'm convinced that, when everything is wiped blank, it's life 's way of forcing you to become acquainted with and aware of who you are now, who you can become. What is the fulfillment of your soul?
Never give up. Things may be hard, but if you quit trying they'll never get better. Stop worrying and start trusting God. It will be worth it.
~ Germany Kent

The grace of endurance is the great power of God at work within us.
We face many trials, beyond our human ability to endure. We learn to depend on only God’s grace.
God continue to rescue us from mortal sufferings.
Jehovah-Jireh is a Great provider. Even in times of famine, we have enough to eat.
Don’t complain. Find the courage to be grateful for every circumstance.
Whatever your situation, may you find hope.
God supply my needs, one day at a time.
Adversity tests what the soul can endure.
Adversity quickens the mind, awakens the spirit and strength the soul.
If you are an aspiring leader and you have not yet gone through any trouble, prepare for one. It is by going through the hard times that you become harder against the storms of life.
