Everybody have problems; we don’t wear them as sleeve, so unless we talk about it you may not know. My very good friend would always say ‘if only our look is a reflection of what we have been true.

Life can be hard sometimes; there is no need mincing words about it. Sometimes, our problems weigh us down and we can’t even find the strength to keep moving. And just maybe, one word of encouragement is all we need to lift us out of our depression…

When I am sad and troubled, I find myself looking out for inspiring quotes and the word of God that speaks to me at that time. Words are powerful; they have a way of encouraging people. But when used wrongfully, they can also demoralize and kill a person’s spirit.

For today’s article, I have carefully put together some of my favorite quotes that will not only encourage you, but provide you with a way forward…
