Totally Quotable Tuesday

I love quotes.
In the clarity of others words, thoughts, and feelings I find connections with generations that have come before me, whose knowledge and grace ignite a passion in my heart, and a longing to become something better.

I want to celebrate those quotes. On Tuesdays I will be posting a quote that has touched me over the recent days, including an explanation for the connection in my life.

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face...You must do the thing you think you cannot do. - Eleanor Roosevelt.

There are so many areas in my life that this quote touches. Recently I have been dealing with fear from multiple angles. I have been fearful over the current status of my husbands job, I have been scared as a loved one is dieing without the grace of my Lord, I have felt anxious as I stretch and grow in my new job. I am terribly apprehensive about the results of a doctors appointment I have scheduled. I spend alot of my time praying to my almighty God for answers, relief, and knowledge of the unknown, and I keep on moving forward. Its the only thing I know to do right now. Dig Deep...and move on.

Please feel free to join me on Tuesdays and share a quote that impacts you.
