More From Joel Osteen

Dear god," she prayed, "let me be something every minute of every hour of my life. let me be gay; let me be sad. let me be cold; let me be warm. let me be hungry...have too much to eat. let me be ragged or well dressed. let me be sincere - be deceitful. let me be truthful; let me be a liar. let me be honorable and let me sin. only let me be something every blessed minute. and when i sleep, let me dream all the time so that not one little piece of living is ever lost.
Dream Prayer Liars
Fate is like a small sandstorm that keeps changing directions. you change direction but the sandstorm chases you. you turn again, but the storm adjusts. over and over you play this out, like some ominous dance with death just before dawn. why? because this storm isn't something that blew in from far away, something that has nothing to do with you. this storm is you. something inside of you. so all you can do is give in to it, step right inside the storm, closing your eyes and plugging up your ears so the sand doesn't get in, and walk through it, step by step.
Eye Fate Play
Let others lead small lives, but not you. let others argue over small things, let them complain over what might have been, but not you. let others cry over small hurts, let them be discouraged, let them be revengeful and vindictive, but not you. let others leave their future in someone else's hands, let them become materialistic and empty, but not you. let others become ungrateful and stop praying, but not you! let others give up, but not you! for you know in whom you believe and you know that he is always able. now, that's you!
Motivational Hurt Giving Up
And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. you won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. but one thing is certain. when you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. that’s what this storm’s all about.
Inspirational Change Life Lesson
You can get what you want. never sell out. don't break. don't weaken. don't let the kindness of strangers be your salvation, for it is no salvation at all. unless you sleep alone, you sleep with the enemy. never come out of the storm. on the other hand, maybe you should. you don't have what it takes to go the hard way. come out of the cold and sit by the fire. let them warm you with the smiles and promise of friendship's fortune. lose your edge. a soft body and chained mind suit you. chances are you don't have what it takes to walk the frozen trail. stay home and relax.
Kindness Sleep Home
Denna is a wild thing," i explained. "like a hind or a summer storm. if a storm blows down your house, or breaks a tree, you don't say the storm was mean. it was cruel. it acted according to its nature and something unfortunately was hurt. the same is true of denna.

...summer nights held a special kind of loneliness that gave rise to strange imaginings. one walked the beach alone and thought too much.
Summer Beach Loneliness
Like summer sisters comforted me just because i was like, okay things i've seen with my own eyes are not so terrible, and even though i knew adult gay people and had absolutely no issue with it. and i just couldn't articulate what made me so uncomfortable about the space that i shared with my friends becoming a sexual space. and it was very healing for me to read that, and feel like it was a part of other friendships, even fictional friendships i admire.
