I need a "pick me up"

The moment when you first wake up
in the morning is the most wonderful
of the twenty-four hours. No matter
how weary or dreary you may feel,
you possess the certainty that, during
the day that lies before you, absolutely
anything may happen. And the fact that
it practically always doesn't, matters not
a jot. The possibility is always there.
- Monica Baldwin

Life:
I read The Vampire Academy Series by Richelle Mead. I think everyone should read it. It's brilliant, to my opinion better than twilight although i don't like making comparisons since both are very different. I do say i did enjoy it better than the twilight saga. Can't wait for the new book coming out in July 30 that continues the Vampire academy series.

Life:
"But when I am afraid, I put my trust in you." Psalm 56:3

I am afraid....Very.
I decided to make a small post about quotes and inspiring pictures to blog a little about me. I sometimes get afraid. Common emotion we all feel. Afraid of obstacles, health, future and even the dark are among our usual fears. I sometimes fear when i am uncertain and doubtful...yet i remember to face my fear head on and not let it consume me. It is said that fear is an old trick the enemy uses against our lives, trying to stop us from being who we're supposed to be. So i tell you this: When you are facing your fear, whatever it is, God is asking you to hold on to Him. He in turn will hold on to you. And nothing and no one will ever come between you. He is your shelter, and the antidote to your fear. I pray that you learn to place your life in God's capable and strong hands.
