    Eckhart Tolle
    “Don't look for peace. Don't look for any other state than the one you are in now; otherwise, you will set up inner conflict and unconscious resistance. Forgive yourself for not being at peace. The moment you completely accept your non-peace, your non-peace becomes transmuted into peace. Anything you accept fully will get you there, will take you into peace. This is the miracle of surrender”
    Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment

  • #2
    Craig D. Lounsbrough
    “Surrendering is intentionally laying down the power I possess. And have I considered that the power I lay down is often more powerful than that which I’m laying it down in front of? Therefore, I would be wise to recognize that surrender is less the absence of power and more the presence of fear.”
    Craig D. Lounsbrough

  • #3
    Tessa Clare
    “I think there’s a point in everyone’s life where they realize that despite their best efforts, they have no choice but to surrender. That carrying on will only bring them more pain or heartache. I don’t think there’s any way that we can avoid these moments. But I just want you to know that I’m not quite there yet.”
    Tessa Clare, The Divinity Bureau

  • #4
    “Surrendering is not the giving up of something.
    True surrender is the total acceptance of yourself.
    You're not 'losing' anything in the surrender, the way your society usually means that word. You are not giving up anything in the sense of loss.
    Surrender means to open up: Open up to your total self; to give in and let go of the things you think you're supposed to be. Just be who you are. It will see you through.”
    Bashar

    Michael Bassey Johnson
    “Those who pray for your downfall are concentrating negative thoughts towards you, without taking cognisance of the slippery ground in which they are standing, which could lead to their downfall.”
    Michael Bassey Johnson

  • #6
    Israelmore Ayivor
    “Your downfall is a preparation for your up-rise. If you don’t know this secret, you will remain on the floor, blaming your legs instead of your head!”
    Israelmore Ayivor, Daily Drive 365

  • #7
    Ramana Maharshi
    “It will come all right in the end. There is the steady impulse of your determination that sets you on your feet again after every downfall. Gradually the obstacles are all overcome and your current becomes stronger. Everything comes right in the end. Steady determination is what is required. (p. 27)”
    Ramana Maharshi, Talks With Ramana Maharshi: On Realizing Abiding Peace and Happiness

  • #8
    “Remember always, that downfall of a man is never the end of his life. This should give you inner strength, a desirable will to rise any time you fall.”

    “The thing with healing is that we often come back more resilient --stronger in the areas we once thought were broken.”
    Brittany Burgunder

  • #14
    “Through the trials of life, we are tempered and molded, forged into the strong and resilient beings we were meant to be. It is not the easy path that shapes us, but the difficult one, with its twists and turns, its hardships and suffering. But if we can accept and embrace these challenges as a part of our destiny, we will find the inner strength and wisdom to overcome them and emerge even more beautiful and radiant than before.”
    Sambou Lamine Diaby

    Germany Kent

  • #19

    L.J. Shen
    “Grandmomma always said people were like tacos—the harder they were, the easier they broke. Being soft meant being adaptive, more flexible. “When you’re soft, you can contain more. And if you contain more, the world can’t break you.”
    L.J. Shen, Playing with Fire

    Richard Paul Evans
    “My Dear Son,
    I am so very proud of you. Now, as you embark on a new journey, I'd like to share this one piece of advice. Always, always remember that - adversity is not a detour. It is part of the path.

    You will encounter obstacles. You will make mistakes. Be grateful for both. Your obstacles and mistakes will be your greatest teachers. And the only way to not make mistakes in this life is to do nothing, which is the biggest mistake of all.

    Your challenges, if you let them, will become your greatest allies. Mountains can crush or raise you, depending on which side of the mountain you choose to stand on. All history bears out that the great, those who have changed the world, have all suffered great challenges. And, more times than not it's precisely those challenges that, in God's time, lead to triumph.

    Abhor victimhood. Denounce entitlement. Neither are gifts, rather cages to damn the soul. Everyone who has walked this earth is a victim of injustice. Everyone.

    Most of all, do not be too quick to denounce your sufferings. The difficult road you are called to walk may, in fact be your only path to success.”
    Richard Paul Evans, A Winter Dream

    Jason Versey
    “Friction is necessary. Ease of life leads to complacency and the atrophy of the human will and spirit. Within our struggles lives our strength, within our trials lives our triumphs. Friction creates a platform for change, generates heat and or fervor and creates a motivational charge that gives us an opportunity to be better. A gem cannot be polished without friction and so neither a person without hardships. Friction within and friction without sharpens our senses and revives our internal resolutions. Friction is uncomfortable, hardships are distressing but both are necessary. We cannot light a match without friction nor can we hone steal. Uncomfortable as it may be, our adversity ultimately lights a fire and sharpens our very will to flourish. Today, let us not be discouraged, let us not be bitter in our suffering rather let us be encouraged as we look to our trials as a medium that will eventually make us better.”
    Jason Versey, A Walk with Prudence

  • #26
    Ron Lambros
    “God does not want our faith kept in mothballs, so He sometimes allows trials and testing to come into our lives; the unexpected hardships and heartbreaks that rock us in places we never thought we'd face as a child of God. And it's in those defining moments that we knock off the cobwebs of our everyday faith and face life with a new and improved one that's empowered by God Himself.”
    Ron Lambros, All My Love, Jesus: Personal Reminders From the Heart of God

  • #27
    Karen  Gibbs
    “Sometimes life takes you into a dark place where you feel it's impossible to breathe. You think you've been buried, but don't give up, because if truth be told, you've actually been planted.”
    Karen Gibbs

  • #28
    Ellen Gould White
    “It is written that God cursed the ground for man's sake. Genesis 3:17. The thorn and the thistle—the difficulties and trials that make his life one of toil and care—were appointed for his good as a part of the training needful in God's plan for his uplifting from the ruin and degradation that sin has wrought.”
    Ellen G. White, Steps to Christ

  • #29
  • #30
    “Trials come. Tribulation comes. Fires of refinement come. The purpose of refinement is to bring to light the things hidden in darkness and then remove them”
    Robin Bertram, No Regrets: How Loving Deeply and Living Passionately Can Impact Your Legacy Forever
