I Never Thought

When I was sick I never thought I'd be well.

When I was tired I never thought I'd find rest.

When I was unemployed I never thought I'd find a job.

When I was hurt I never thought I would be strong again.

When I lost my home I never thought I'd find a new one.

When I knew only abuse I never thought I would know love.

When I could not handle change I never thought I would be able to adapt.

When I cried I thought I would never laugh.

When I lost loved ones I never thought I could move on.

When I was scared I never thought I would have the courage to face my fears.

When I was attacked I never thought I would be able to forgive.

When I worried I never thought I would have faith.

When I think I am insignificant I forget all I've done that I thought I never could, all I have that I thought I never would, and all I've overcome that I never thought was possible.

There are so many things we believe ourselves to be incapable of. There are so many times we are put to the test and we believe we will fail. But take a moment to look at all you have been through and how far you have come and you will see how truly amazing you are.
