People will always disappoint. Even the most well-meaning among us will let others down at times. We strive for perfection but alas we are human.
Do your best in relationship with others. Forgive fully and move forward.
But remember, there is One Who can be counted on all the time.
Diligently seek your relationship with the Lord. Put your trust in Him.
For it is written:
“Let your conduct be without covetousness, and be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you or forsake you.””
The key is really where you sit every single day. Spend time sitting at the feet of Jesus as in the end this is the most important seat in the house.
Sitting at His feet will change you. Sitting at His feet will renew your mind. Sitting at His feet will direct you to the narrow road which leads to everlasting life.
For it is written:
“Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.”
Each day is a gift. God in His goodness ushers in renewal every day. Do not look back.
Walk in the new. Look for the renewal. Speak new life into your situation.
Do not miss the new because you are ruminating over the old.
For it is written:
“Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”
Instead of constantly talking about and complaining about someone, take the time to pray for them.
Let the Holy Spirit soften your heart to cover them in prayer. Bless them. Sincerely believe for God’s direction and help in their life.
For, we are all human. Not one of us is perfect. Often, what bothers us about another is something we ourselves find challenging even if subconsciously. There but for the grace of God we would manifest the very same actions. Pray for those who upset you. Pray for those who spitefully use you. Pray for those who…
Maturity is not a given with numerical age. Wisdom is not necessarily something that comes with the passage of years. To grow beyond yourself is surely a start.
See the needs of others. Be a blessing.
Instead of chasing after things, seek the Lord’s wisdom for your life. Let Him work in you and through you for the glory of His Kingdom “for such a time as this!”
For it is written:
“If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, Who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.”
God does not forget His promises. They are Yes and Amen!
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to hold fast to the profession of your faith. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to believe without doubt. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to trust Him despite what you may see around you.
The Kingdom of God operates quite differently from the natural flow of things. What looks like mission impossible in the natural is totally possible with God!
Life is a journey. Some places are just stop-overs. Some require a longer stay. And some are of a more permanent nature.
Whatever your situation, make the most of it. Seek the beauty. Enjoy the scenery.
Each situation brings its own lessons. Grow from them. Let them make you a better person. Let Christ be your strength.
For it is written:
“Not that I speak from want, for I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am. I know how to get along with humble means, and I also know how to live in prosperity; in any and
Are you living in abundance? Jesus came to give you life more abundantly. Sadly, many think this simply means the abundance of earthly things such as money, big cars, fame, a big house or material things.
The abundance He speaks of includes the indwelling of the Holy Spirit which produces the fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness. The abundance He speaks of softens your heart (for it is always a heart issue) and lets His compassion flow through you to others. His abundance is most notable in being able to rest in His peace despite what is
Just pay attention and stay open. Then, you will see His hand blessing you throughout your day. Heaven-sent blessings can be found in the humblest moments. Simplify your expectations.
Let God be God.
Let’s magnify the Lord every day and walk in His glory!
For it is written:
“Oh magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together.”
