More From Joel Osteen

When you go through difficult times, make sure you pass the test. don’t be stubborn and hardheaded. recognize that god is refining you, knocking off some of your rough edges. stand strong and fight the good fight of faith. god has called each of us to be champions; you are destined to win. if you will work with god and keep a good attitude, then no matter what comes against you, the bible says that all things – not just the good things in life, but all things – work together for your good.
Strong Attitude Fighting
Some good leaders are rough around the edges and some leaders are difficult. some have difficult personalities and some are really nice to be around, but those are not the qualifications. the qualifications are their desire to see us achieve more, their desire to push us to be the best we can be. not for their selfish gain, but because they believe that we have something to offer.
Selfish Nice Believe
Let us not grow tired of knocking at god's door. let us go to the heart of god through mary, our whole life, every day, knocking at the door of god's heart! mary prays - prays together with the community of disciples, and teaches us to have full faith in god, in his mercy. this is the power of prayer!
Prayer Tired Heart
Sometimes, god uses difficult people, like sandpaper, to rub the rough edges off us.
Rough Edges People Use
What is sin? it is the glory of god not honored. the holiness of god not reverenced. the greatness of god not admired. the power of god not praised. the truth of god not sought. the wisdom of god not esteemed. the beauty of god not treasured. the goodness of god not savored. the faithfulness of god not trusted. the commandments of god not obeyed. the justice of god not respected. the wrath of god not feared. the grace of god not cherished. the presence of god not prized. the person of god not loved. that is sin.

We have been through, over these years, some difficult times. during the period that i have served as president of the united states, we have been through some difficult times together, and i can only say that the friendship that we have for this nation, the respect and the admiration we have for the people of this nation, their courage, their tenacity, their firmness in the face of very great odds, is one that makes us proud to stand with israel, as we have in the past in times of trouble, and now to work with israel in a better time, a time that we trust will be a time of peace.

My novel, which i had started with such hope shortly after publishing my first book of stories, wouldn't budge past the 75-page mark. nothing i wrote past page 75 made any kind of sense. nothing. which would have been fine if the first 75 pages hadn't been pretty damn cool.
