Blog every day in May... Day 4

Ok, so I am jumping on the bandwagon 4 days late but I just found this link and thought I would do it. At the start of the year I set some goals and one of them was to do more and better blogging. To be honest, this has been a tricky goal for me as I have been finding it hard to even do one or two posts a week with all the busy-ness of life happening. So why the heck would I sign up for blog every day for a month?? Especially a month with 31 days in it?? Well, I guess it is to help me with achieving my goal, so let's so how I go.

So here goes. The Blog every day in May has a set topic every day and here is today's:

Day 4, Saturday: Favourite quote (from a person, from a book, etc) and why you love it:

This is a hard one as I have so many quotes, scriptures, sayings, etc. that I just love and for several different reasons.

Probably one of my most favourite, however, has to come from the Bible. I love the verse Joshua 1:9 (NIV):

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

This is pretty much what I quote to myself every time I am running, particularly if it is a tough run I have to remind myself that I am strong and courageous. It seriously helps!

What's your favourite quote and why?
