\n“I can turn failure into success, disappointment into increased understanding and loss into gain<\/em>.”<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Emerson stated in his essay Compensation<\/em> that for everything you lose, you gain something.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

For every loss there is a gain, so let go of the loss and accept the gain.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

“I will restore to you the years which the swarming locust has eaten,”<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

The years the locust has eaten symbolize those periods in life that seem empty of good or filled with trouble.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/span>Just as vines that are pruned bear better and fuller fruits, so all periods of hardship, problems and challenges through which we pass can be regarded as times of pruning.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Release all anxiety or condemnation of yourself or others about your past or situation.\u00a0 <\/span><\/strong>God can give such an abundant outpouring of good in the present moment that there is not room enough to hold it!<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Keep acknowledging the growth and the good that is coming out of every moment and every situation, <\/span><\/strong>no matter how improbable it may seem.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
