Life Lessons Quote by Shaila Touchton — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“When God's Word is spoken, it can convict people of their sin (John 16:8). This conviction can lead to feelings of guilt, shame, and defensiveness. Instead of acknowledging their sin and repenting, they may lash out at the messenger. This reaction is often a result of the person's inner struggle to come to terms with their wrongdoing. As messengers of God's Word, it's crucial to approach these situations with empathy and compassion, while still conveying the truth.”

“True love makes us feel safe and secure, not anxious or uncertain. Genuine love prioritizes our well-being, not just our convenience. When someone truly loves us, they're accountable for their actions and communicate openly. They make time for us, listen to us, and understand our needs. Exploitation has no place in real love; instead, there's mutual respect and care. If someone's love is genuine, they'll be present and committed, not just making excuses or playing games. In true love, actions speak louder than words, and trust is built, not broken.”

“Satan's agents often wear sheep's clothing, but their fruit reveals their true nature. A strong relationship with God is the shield that protects us from the darts of deception.”

“When rejection comes, don't be dismayed, for it may be God's protection from what's not meant for you. Rejection can be a divine redirection, leading you to something greater. Trust that God's plan is better than yours. Though it hurts, rejection can shield you from harm. Let go and let God guide you to your destined path. In His timing, you'll find your perfect fit.”

“Life is meant to be fun, and joyous, and fulfilling.”

“There will be a few times in your life when all your instincts will tell you to do something, something that defies logic, upsets your plans, and may seem crazy to others. When that happens, you do it. Listen to your instincts and ignore everything else. Ignore logic, ignore the odds, ignore the complications, and just go for it.”

“Technology is developing so rapidly that none of us can afford to get set in our ways. Instead of hoping that your world won’t budge, stay alert to the new possibilities that are emerging.”

“The moral of the story is even though that seemed like the end of the world back then, right now I can look back on it and laugh. And if anyone is going through something similar right now just know it will get better.”

“The present moment is aptly named 'present'—a reminder that it is indeed a gift.”

“[...]he realized that some things were meant to be broken so that others could be made whole.”
