Pray to God even after he gave you what you were praying for.
“Be grateful for what you already have while you pursue your goals. If you aren’t grateful for what you already have, what makes you think you would be happy with more?”— Roy T Bennett


“So, what if, instead of thinking about solving your whole life, you just think about adding additional good things. One at a time. Just let your pile of good things grow.”— Rainbow Rowell, Attachments (via wordsnquotes)
“Teach me to teach this to my children. That the loneliness we feel is actually an indication of our need for God. It’s never going to go away until we realise that the hole is a God-sized hole, and no intimate relationship is ever, ever going to fill it, no matter how hard they try and no matter how hard we try to fit them into it.”
