Your words are powerful tools, so start your day focused on the positive. Say it with me! I will keep my eyes on my goals, rather than my problems. #positivity

The wisest person in the world is the one who understands that he will never understand everything. #JoyceQuote #YourBattles

Committed people outlast the difficulty. Committed people go the extra mile and do more than they have to. They see dreams come to pass. Is there something you’re tempted to give up on? Stay committed, stay determined, stay faithful.

It may not be easy, but your destiny is calling. You have greatness in you. Don’t let people talk you out of it; don’t let circumstances convince you that you can’t.

Your #words are powerful tools, so start your day focused on the positive. Say it with me! I will choose my thoughts intentionally, and keep my focus positive.

The only one that can stop you is you. If you give up on your dreams, if you live bitter with no passion, thinking you’ve reached your limits, then you’ll get stuck where you are. You won’t see the beauty for ashes; you won’t see God pay you back for the unfair things.

Be thankful for all you have

Sometimes we tend to feel like, “If You loved me, You wouldn’t be letting me go through this.” But we have to remember what He let His own Son go through, and He had a purpose. #JoyceQuote

Get up, dress up, show up

When we face difficulties, one of the best things we can do is find a promise in the Scripture and remind God of what He said. Don’t just pray the problems; pray the promises. If you only tell God what’s wrong, then you’re limiting what He can do.

What you’re dealing with is not going to last as long as it looks. It’s not going to hinder you for the rest of your life. The sun is going to come up sooner than you think. Daybreak is about to happen. Light is about to break forth on the horizon.

Psychology says, your goals should scare you a little and excite you a lot.
