Epilogue....that Rock Bottom feeling

Today is the last day of the month of June, that means we are done with the first half of the year 2015! Can you believe that!! Progressing and moving forward in the right direction with my life has me feeling great at what it has been thus far and excited about the endless possibilities lying ahead of me. You know for each one of us, it all begins with the choice to take the better journey of our lives! My hope is that you are also making the right ones.

In last month's post titled That Rock Bottom feeling, I talked about areas of struggle that we all face in one way or another in this life and I even opened up about two particular scenarios of my own. This month I will keep it very simple and just flood my page by picking some encouraging quotes and phrases from my endless collection and with scripture, that we can have to come back to during those discouraging moments as they will always arise in one form or the other, to keep us encouraged.

Some are new, some are old. Enjoy and may you be blessed and enouraged !!! 



You can’t change your past - but you sure can change your future!

It is never too late to be what you might have been.

If it doesn't challenge you, it wont change you.

One day in retrospect, the years of struggle will strike you as the most beautiful.

Keep pushing, the only way to get past it is through it.

Realise that failure is not an identity but an event...don't allow your past mistakes to define you.

Our greatest glory is not in never falling. Our greatest glory is in rising each and every time we fall . 

It's our attitude not our aptitude that determines our altitude.

Sometimes you win and sometimes you learn. Success is going from failure to failure without the loss of enthusiasm.

Never ever give up. Winners don't quit! Keep going.

If you do not take control of your inner thoughts, you will become a slave to your outer circumstances. You won't be driving your life; the storms and changing weather will.

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.

Courage is not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.



If at first you don't succeed, call it version 1.0

Don't GO through life ... GROW through life...

Don't stop trying because you've hit a wall, progress is progress no matter how small.

Never let a mistake take you down. If you fall, get back up.


Failure at some point in your life is inevitable, but giving up is unforgivable.

Just because what you are working toward hasn't come to pass doesn't mean that it's not going to happen! Keep PUSHING!

Never assume that you're stuck with the way things are. Life changes, and so can you.

Your present circumstances don't determine where you can go; they merely determine where you start.

Turn your low moment into your highest and strongest moment.

It is never too late to change the negative works into something positive.


I am who I am today because of the choices I made yesterday.

Your future is not ahead of you , it is within you .

If you'll not settle for anything less than your best, you will be amazed at what you can accomplish in your lives.

"w̶̶a̶̶i̶̶t̶̶ ̶̶f̶̶o̶̶r̶̶ ̶̶t̶̶h̶̶e̶̶ ̶̶p̶̶e̶̶r̶̶f̶̶e̶̶c̶̶t̶̶ ̶̶m̶̶o̶̶m̶̶e̶̶n̶̶t̶̶, Take the moment and make it perfect."


No matter how far you have gone on the wrong road, you can still turn around

Don’t curse your crisis- it can be a blessing in disguise!

A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances, but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes

Train your mind to see the good in everything.

Life is not waiting for the storm to pass, its learning to dance in the rain.

You are the average of the 5 people you spend your time with. - Get around winners.

No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up. Even when it hits the fan.

You are wired for greatness and success! Failure is not an option and fear does not exist in your DNA!


Let your faith be bigger than your fear.

When you are in Christ, you are victorious! :)


It is not by might nor by strength, but by unmerited favour of He who began the good work in us. (Zechariah 4:6)

I can do all things thorough Chirst who strengthens me. ( Phillipians 4:13)

“In the day when I cried out, You answered me, and made me bold with strength in my soul.” Psalm 138:3
“But Jesus looked at them and said to them, ‘With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.’” Matthew 19:26
“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7
Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7

 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. John 14:27




I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world. - John 16:33
