Paul suffered greatly during his lifetime– shipwrecks, beatings that left him near death, abandonment of friends, imprisonment, and eventually, execution. Scripture teaches us that all of us face various forms of suffering in our lives. How can you withstand suffering? One way is to ask God to help you have Paul’s attitude of confidence that earthly sufferings cannot come close to comparing to the glory you will one day see.

Some things aren’t worth sharing with anyone because its good to sort it out for yourself.

I got it out of my head.
One of the funny things about being on the internet is the silly  quotes they add to photos. Sometimes they have me screaming so loud. Here are some of my favorites.Â
