"Even as the better things we now enjoy have come to us from the struggles of former years." As many freshman FFA Creed speakers know how many simple questions can come from that one line. As E.M Tiffany had a vision of the future, he knew what struggles American Agriculture had endured and would it would have endured that was going to make it a stronger industry. We are often told "what doesn't kill you only make you stronger." I live by this quote I know the struggles I face and the mountains I climb make me a better person, physically and mentally. Everyone has their own battles and struggles they face, which in turn makes them the person they are. Challenges make life interesting however overcoming them make it meaningful. So next time you think something is to hard, remember there are other people fighting worse battles than you. God's got you, if you have him. To live is to struggle, and to struggle is to grow.
Trouble such a simple word with such large meaning. The trouble with life is that there is always an excuse. An excuse to be better, do better, act better, live better. The trouble with life is that often times when things go right the first time, people don't appreciate how difficult it was. Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life and when it comes, hold you head high, look it squarely in the eye and say, "I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me." Through life trouble brings experience, and experience brings wisdom.
Store up on love, Stay humble
Faith, Hope, and Love but the greatest is love. -1Corinthians 13:13. Love is what keeps us going. If we have love we have everything. Did you know the word 'love' is mentioned in the bible 314 times. Thats not counting the multiple variations of the word. If something is mentions that many times, its has to be important! Love can keep an individual going through the tough times. Love from our family and friends. Store up on love and you'll have enough to go around.
God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. -1Peter 5:5. Staying humble is easier said than done, we all know that. However when people stay humble they are often more approachable and easier to relate too. Happiness keeps you sweet, sorrows keep you human, life keeps you humble, success keeps you glowing, but only God keeps you going. Being humble and thankful go along way in this world.
