The Power of Silence
I have learned to keep my lips sealed and speak only when necessary. This discipline
has brought peace and wisdom into my interactions.

"When words are many, sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise." - Proverbs 10:19
The Freedom of Forgiveness
Letting go of grudges and forgiving those who have wronged me has been a transformative experience. It has freed my heart from bitterness and opened it to love.
“Forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you." - Colossians 3:13
"And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins." - Mark 11:25
The Strength in Vulnerability
I have learned that it's okay to show emotions and cry when needed. Embracing my vulnerability has brought me closer to God and to others.
“The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit." - Psalm 34:18
"Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted." - Matthew 5:4
The Joy of Selfless Love

"In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'" - Acts 20:35
The Beauty of Patience
I have learned to be patient and trust in God's timing. This season has shown me that waiting on the Lord renews my strength.

"Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer." - Romans 12:12
The Peace of Trusting God
Trusting God in all circumstances has brought a profound sense of peace into my life. Knowing that He is in control allows me to rest in His promises.
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight." - Proverbs 3:5-6
"And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:7
