“Growth is rarely glamorous; instead, it’s forged in the rocky hills of hardship, the valleys of suffering, and the foggy paths of waiting. It’s marked by a gradual movement toward Christ in the middle of the messy, mundane moments of life. If you expect life to be perfect, you will be let down every time. But if you embrace the struggle, eyes glued to Jesus, you will surrender to your Savior and find in him the perfection you long for. He’s working in your waiting, creating a masterpiece out of your mess. In other words: life won’t ever be easy, but God is always good.”
― Gretchen Saffles, The Well-Watered Woman: Rooted in Truth, Growing in Grace, Flourishing in Faith

“Well, I guess you can’t always rely on feeling in love. That comes and goes. It’s a decision, too, you know. You have to look after it.”
