Growing Pains

Don't blow this chance to grow.
God will give you a clean slate from which to begin each day.
You will have many opportunities
and what you do with each one
will determine your own growth.

Thought to Ponder . . .

I am not punished by circumstances, only by my refusal to grow.

I was amazed to hear someone speak when they picked up their 1 year medallion.  The person has had a really rough year with finances, being unemployed, their mother dying, and a lot of depression.  He stated that he now knows none of those things were done to him but FOR him so that he could grow.  That was awesome to hear and a great way to get out of feeling like a victim.
