Надійся на Господа і нехай буде певне серце твоє.
Роби що потрібне, що добре – кмітливо –
Праця, любов, життя, надія доведуть своє;
Мужність май – твоє не забариться диво.

When you lose yourself in life,
Your courage will soon follow.
Keep good things however harsh is the strife.
Your success will come, your storehouses will not be hollow.

Коли так тяжко,
Господи, помилуй.
Із Ним не буде важко,
Господи, помилуй.
Жоден волос не впаде,
Що Він не знає.
Хто втратив, знайде.
Бог любить, дбає.
Отож, звеселіться!
Хай ваше світло засяє!
Горе чи радість, моліться,
Сміливо хай нога ступає.

Be friendly if you want to have friends.
Be friendly, despite misfortunes it will all settle in the end.
Be gentle, patient and loving in all everywhere.
Be courageous, discover and dare!

Our bodies are like ships on the ocean that rages;
We are like captains who are courageous.
Our task is to direct our feet
To the safe harbour – the Kingdom of God, our fleet.

Stock up with courage; eliminate worry on all levels.

More than anything else I am thankful truly
And, therefore, happy fully.
Despite all hardships and fails
Toward the positive stuff I set my sails.
Although I may fear –
Let my courage make it disappear.
Although I may stumble –
Let God’s grace make me humble.

Time passes fast:
You are eighteen, you nap,
And you are forty and the younger years are in the past.
Do all good, kind, courageous stuff now – to recap.

Don’t be afraid to make a mistake,
Whether you are thinking to invite your date to a lake,
Or whether you are trying out new things to bake.
Be courageous – this is a feature to never forsake!

Christmas, what a bright Day!
It’s time to smile, give, take, and pray!
It’s time when you can play
As if you were a child constructing with clay.
Open your heart, let Christmas come and stay,
Let the kind child in you rejoice at each sun ray!
Keep your own bright, courageous, perseverant way.
Merry Christmas! I wish you happy smiles and a full tray!

Be courageous when you meet a lady or old buddies.
Be creative in doing good things.
Do all with love and see what fruit this brings!

Я бачив дівчину,
Одну ногу вона мала.
З подругою йшла у ту годину
Й підборіддя високо тримала.
В очах – любов,
В ході – сміливість.
Я згадую знов…
Невдачі дивна непокоривість.
А я зі своїми дрібними…
Клопіт мій – то ніщо.
Життя не бачу за ними,
А далі що?

When things are not working out,
Have courage to smile;
When the time comes and you figure out,
Thank God and those who helped you cover the mile! =)

Shine your way –
Hard or light –
Have courage to say:
“You are so bright!”
But saying is insufficient –
Believe if you want all to be efficient.
Be of good cheer!
Share the things that are dear!

In years to come
You will be more sorry about the things
You didn’t do, because they would seem dumb,
Than about those you did on your faith, hope, love wings.
So do good stuff today,
Do it with courage, without delay.
Skip reflecting on what they will think or say –
Do kind, wise, and simple things at home, at work, at play.
Iaroslav Wednesday 28.12.2016
According to the abundance of the grief of my heart,
O Lord, You helped me.
Your encouragements make my worries depart;
You show me the forest and make me distinguish a tree.
Your encouragements console my soul;
Your Grace fills my bowl;
You are close in distress;
You keep at bay any stress.

Courage, patience, and smile
Are the things to keep going –
Stock up to cover an extra mile,
Continue rowing.

When the things work wrong
And you want to despair, stop –
It won’t take long
Before all is back to top.
Have courage, eat porridge;
Keep balance, use your talent –
Take it out of storage;
Be gallant.
Iaroslav Sunday 11.09.2016

Be courageous in a lot of ways.
Let your heart be strengthened,
All you who hope in the Lord all days.
Love Him for your years to be lengthened.

Make wise and prompt your start.
Do your part, God will do His to help you break through.

They gave their lives
That we may enjoy the things we like.
Due to them peace thrives;
Without fear I can ride my bike.
Thank you
For you have showed courage, faith, and love.
You have prepared the place for the peace dove.
Every day you stood to your duty anew.
We remember and pray for you.
We live because your courageous deeds were true.
We enjoy hockey, pancakes, maple syrup, and barbecue.
Your glory did not fade, it grew.

Життя – це великий дар,
Не варто про це забувати
І тільки Господь може ним наділяти;
Життя наповнює все від моря до хмар.
Але той, хто його має
Розпорядитися ним правильно мусить,
Найвищої мудрості життя вимагає
І розумний для початку язика закусить.
Не варто життя марнувати,
Його треба цінити, сміливіше крокувати.
Кожен сам все зважить, але час швидко спливає,
Укріпиться той у житті, хто надію на Бога покладає.
