Three Day Quote Challenge: Day Two

Hello! It's time for day two of the three day quote challenge! In case you forgot the rules, here they are again:

1. Thank the person who nominated you.
2. Nominate three new bloggers every day.
3. Post a new quote every day for three days.

Today's quote comes from an unknown source:


How true is this, folks? We so often look to the past in times of fear of trouble, longing for or hating what we see there. But that's not where we're going. We're going to the future. We're going with God. And we're going good places. So if you look back, try to be thankful. Don't lust for a past that often seems more idyllic than it actually was and don't let yesterday's hurt define who you are today; rather be thankful for the small blessings, the wheat among the weeds, and look to tomorrow with confidence for the old has passed away and the new is upon us. You are loved. You are known. And even when you don't have this, God does. How great is that?

Also, just because I think we could all use a little laughter in our lives, please enjoy three of my new favorite stories/posts:

The one time you were the evil classmate:

(This one almost had me in tears)

The too long; didn't read edition of the bible:

(Guys...)

This time talking to yourself actually worked out:

(I literally can't read this one to people I laugh so hard)


Alright, time for my nominations:

Actually, to be totally honest, folks, I don't know any other people who a) I read their blog, b) they know who I am, or c) haven't already been nominated. So instead of nominations, I'm going to give you some people to check out. I hope that's alright.

1. K.M. Weiland on Helping Writers Become Authors. If you don't already know about this amazing writing resource, then today's you're lucky day. This woman is FANTASTIC and her writing tips and breakdowns will revolutionize your work. I promise. 

2. Dr. Ian Osborn on OCD and Christianity. This site has been a life saver for me lately. If you have OCD - or suspect you might - and are a Christian, Dr. Osborn let's you know that it's totally beyond possible to be both. They are believing reasons for your suffering and believing methods of treatment that don't involve tormenting yourself all the time. If you're troubled by intrusive, unwanted thoughts and are suffering from repeated, nonsensical actions to try and diminish them, PLEASE go check this guy out. You're not alone. There God of the universe is waiting to help you.

3. Marissa Meyer on MarrisaMeyer.com. I have literally worn this woman's writing process posts to death. She is such a talented author and so kind and so willing to share with her fans. If you haven't read her books or checked out her website yet, please go do it! You'll be thanking your lucky stars that you did. 


That's it for today, folks! As always, much thanks to the lovely Alyssa for nominating me (Honey Drop Post, folks. Click. Love. Subscribe.) and to all you wonderful people for taking the time out of your busy day to read this. You are amazing. Love and be loved. Bye :).
