We give people political labels, sexual labels, and religious labels. But in the process, we strip them of their individuality and complexity. Prejudice is pre-judging. It's assuming that bad stories end badly, but Jesus is in the business of turning bad beginnings into happily ever afters.. God cannot give up on you. It's not in His nature. His goodness and mercy will follow you all the days of your life. All you have to do is turn around. All you have to do is crash the party! . Mark Batterson
About This Quote

There are many people in the world who are struggling with mental health issues. These people may be labeled as “crazy” or “insane”, but they are far from being unintelligent. The truth is that they are the ones who have the power to turn their downward spiral around. If they can find the strength to get up every morning and try again, then they have the potential to be one of the most amazing people in this world.

They have the ability to be a shining light of hope for all of us to admire and follow. As someone who has suffered with depression myself, I know that it’s not easy to get up every morning when you feel like giving up. It takes a lot of effort just to get out of bed in the morning.

However, if you don’t give up, then you can achieve anything you want in life.
