Adulting – A journey through adulthood in all of its glory and responsibilities.  There are times when you just need encouragement.  In order to prepare for such days, I keep a collection of scriptures, encouraging quotes, pep talks, songs, videos, and things that make me laugh.  Here are a few pieces of encouragement from this ever-growing collection (in no particular order):

Scriptures:
“…being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” Philippians 1:6

“So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.” 1 Corinthians 10:31

“Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.” James 1:12

“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? ²⁶ Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? ²⁷ Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?…³⁴ Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” Matthew 6:25-27, 34
