Perspective
I know it looks to you like it's really been a hard time,
and it has.
It looks to you like things are really messed up
--you messed up, others messed up,
and you ended up in a messed-up situation.
But you know what? I don't see it that way.
I see it differently than you see it.
There is a reason why I have allowed all of this to happen.
It's another step in your growth.
Every day I'm teaching you and helping you to learn more.
I know you've been discouraged and you've made mistakes,
but that's okay;
that's how you learn.
You're learning patience,
you're learning perseverance,
you're learning how to make decisions.
This time is meant to strengthen you.
I know it's hard, and you look around you
and it just doesn't seem like the greatest situation,
or like it's working out very well.
But you don't have to worry,
because I'm right there.
You can talk to Me about it any time, every day,
and if you listen, I'll talk back to you.
We can talk together and I'll help you solve your problems.
I'll give you the faith and perseverance that you need for this time.
yet another day of memories...
