Although it pains me, I must admit that I have never found what I ‘need.’ And I am in this place because long ago I took it upon myself to decide what I ‘want’ to need, verses surrendering to what I ‘need’ to need. And thankfully I have realized that God made Christmas everything that I ‘want, ’ but more so He made it everything that I ‘need. Craig D. Lounsbrough
About This Quote

A person who has lived a life where he or she never found what they needed is bound to be miserable. That person is bound to live his or her life in a state of constant need. A person who has never given up on their dreams and instead believed in the impossible is bound to live a fulfilled and happy life. When we hear that we need something, we often become paralyzed and lose the ability to move forward with anything that we want. That’s because we don’t believe that we can do it.
