just wanting to feel inspired and empowered...

"God expects you to have enough faith and determination and enough trust in Him to keep moving, keep living, and keep rejoicing. In fact, He expects you not simply to face your future (that sounds pretty grim and stoic); He expects you to embrace and shape the future - to love it, to rejoice in it, and delight in your opportunities. God is anxiously waiting to answer your prayers and fulfill your dreams, just as he always has. But He can't if you don't pray, and He can't if you don't dream. In short, He can't if you don't believe." Jeffrey R. Holland
