God won't protect you through what He can perfect you through.

Anybody who has gone through suffering/depression/hardship (which is the majority of us) knows that you have good days & bad days. Each day can be a challenge. I try to fill my mind with good thoughts or thoughts that would comfort me.

God won't protect you through what He can perfect you through. This statement really means a lot when you realize that God uses difficult situations to mold you into what He wants you to be.

If you're still on this earth, God's purpose for you isn't over. Sometimes people think selfishly & wish they were not here anymore having to deal with their problems. Don't worry, that's NOT the way that I feel. But I felt like this was something that someone may need to think about. God has a plan for each one of us. He will decide when your purpose has been lived out. Cherish each day & live to the fullest.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. - Philippians 4:6-7

It's God's presence, not comfortable circumstances, that lead people to the best version of themselves. So true! God is always carrying you through every valley & every mountain. Praise Him & trust Him throughout all situations. God will not give you more than you can handle. You are stronger than you may think, especially with Jesus on your side.
