When you realize how powerful emotions can be... Remember to always elevate your faith above your feelings. Because what you elevate highly governs you. Feelings change, but, the precepts of faith are
unchanging. Put simply, feelings change, truth changes you! Always allow that which is eternal rather than temporary to govern you. 2 Co 5:7

When you come to a sudden bump in the road... Never allow your life circumstances to define you, instead, let them refine you. Hard things are like heavenly sandpaper upon your life! God uses them to shape and mold you into a work of art. When you feel the pressure of
trials, remember that God won't allow them to crush you, he intends for them to make you beautiful. 2 Cor. 4:8-9

When you feel afraid... Always exercise courage even when you don't feel confident. Courage is a choice, confidence is a feeling. Remember that courage and confidence are not the same thing. Be brave, my sweet Hannah for bravery broadens you. Fear limits you. Ask
God to help you overcome earthly fear by developing reverence for Him. The only fear that brings you wisdom is the fear of God. Fear Him, reverence Him and nothing else will shake you. 2 Tim 1:7

When you don't like what you see in the mirror... Look into the Mirror of God's Word. When you do, you will see how incredibly beautiful and valuable you are. Merely glance into the bathroom mirror, but, gaze into the Mirror of God's Word. It will always show you the truth because it is the Truth. Trust God's opinion of you
more than you trust others opinions or even your own opinion of yourself. Remember that only the Word of God is eternal and it is worthy of your gaze. To look into the mirror of God's word is to see the face of God, and in doing so, you are better equipped to see who you really are. And, Hannah, you are beautiful and dearly loved.
Psalm 45:11

Wow. It's amazing. Sometimes I read something like this and it brings tears to my eyes. Thank you. One of my most fervent prayers as a new Christian is for God to soften my heart. When I read this, it touched me somewhere deep in my heart and brought tears to my eyes. I don't know what it touched yet, but God doesn't reveal Himself fully and I probably wouldn't understand fully if He did. In time I may know or it just may be part of the growing process as a whole but I thank you all the same.
May God continue to lead you on your path and shine His light on your efforts. They are much appreciated.
Thank you again and God bless.
