Comfort kills ambition, but suffering breeds growth. It is easy to get comfortable with a life that we hate because at least we can breathe. But either way you are suffering, one just hurts less in the moment. Would you rather painful suffering and grow or painless suffering and remain the same?

If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him! (Mathew 7:11) Ask and you shall receive, O you of little faith.

In order to change, a man must first accept. Accept the things that you do not like about yourself, then change it. By disassociating yourself from that very thing. Ex: I am trying to quit smoking vs I quit smoking. The first one is still associated with you. The latter is disassociated.

So Peter got out of the boat and walked on water. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, "Lord, save me". Mathew 14:29-30 Keep your eyes on Jesus through all things you do. The moment you take your eyes off Him, you will sink.

One cannot change their past, but if you start today you can change your future. Your past does not define you. What you do today does. Will you change your future?
