Several thoughts and quotes:
 
** "Make all you can. Save all you can. Give all you can."
        ~~ John Wesley
 
** "Misery might love company; but joy deserves a crowd!
        ~~ Joni Eareckson Tada
 
** "The one things I want from God, the thing I seek most of all, is the prvilege of meditating in His Temple, living in His presence every day of my life, delighting in His incomparable perfections and glory. There I'll be when troubles come. He will hide me. He will set me on a high rock out of reach of all my enemies. Then I will bring Him sacrifices and sing His praises with much joy."
        ~~ Psalms 27:4 - 6
 
** "Zero (health issues, family problems, money difficulties, etc.) is not such a bad place to be if you are looking to God. If something 'bad' happens to you in that realm, don't rely on your own strength, rely on God! Trust Him!"
        ~~ Bayless Conley
 
** "Each time he said, 'No. But I am with you; that is all you need. My power shows up best in weak people.' Now I am glad to boast about how weak I am; I am glad to be a living demonstration of Christ's power, instead of showing off my own power and abilities. Since I know it is all for Christ's good, I am quite happy about 'the thorn', and about insults and hardships, persecutions and difficulties; for when I am weak, then I am strong--the less I have, the more I depend on Him."
        ~~ Paul in his letter to the Corinthian people (II Corinthians 12:9 - 10
