One Step Closer

Be grateful for your mistakes and the trials, travesties and tribulations from your enemies. Without the pain, you would not have the strength for your purpose, you would not be who you are today, have the people in your life as you do now, nor the passion that drives you to make a difference.  Believe, with all your heart, that evil attacks hardest, God’s strongest; those meant for God's greater purpose, and how great it is. Satan does everything in his power to get you to give up, give in, and go away.  Evil relishes those moments when you focus on what frustrates or angers you; all that is wrong is he and evil wants to be the center of your attention.  You may fall, you may fail and you may get knocked down; know, every time you get back up, every time you try, and every time you keep moving, you’re one step closer to God and the greatness He has in store for you!
