the impossible is nothing

Why is it that some days, all we hear are discouraging words? It seems as if everything you say, everything you do, everything you believe in, is wrong. Why does it seem that even your friends feel the need to say one thing that will tear you down? You try to be positive, encouraging, uplifting, but the battle you are trying to win is a million to one. You want people to believe in you and support you; you want to be lifted up, you want to know that you can do anything. You want to know that you can be and do the unthinkable. And sometimes, even the ones that you thought would be there for you, let you down.

"He tears me down on every side till I am gone;
he uproots my hope like a tree."
Job 19:10

But anything is possible. Anything that you set your mind to, you can achieve. People will question you, doubt you, try and prove you wrong. But, the hope and faith that you have will only make you stronger. No one can tell you what you can't do; it is only you that limits yourself. It is not always easy to find strength even when you have been beaten down, but the little strength you do have left will build you up. Don't listen to the negativity because you are who you choose to be and no one else can define you; not your parents, not your friends, not even those who get under your skin. Don't ever let someone stand in the way of your dreams, because you can do things you never even imagined you could do. The impossible is nothing.


"...Everything is possible for him who believes."
Mark 9:23
