Daily Inspiration-Are You Shortchanging Yourself?

Love

If you choose to follow Jesus but do not accept His peace you are shortchanging yourself.

His peace is not as the world defines peace.

So, if you are looking for peace in a worldly situation, you will not find it.

Seek Him first.

Rest in His peace despite your situation.

It is possible.

For it is written:

“Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”

Daily Inspiration-Do Not Judge the Challenge

Love

Be kind to one another.

Do not judge what you think you see.

Just because someone else’s challenge does not look like your challenge does not make it any less valid or real.

For it is written:

“Judge not, and you shall not be judged.  Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned.  Forgive, and you will be forgiven…For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.”

Maturity does not necessarily come with numerical age.

Wisdom is truly a gift.

Therefore, seek wisdom!

Daily Inspiration-Move Forward!

Love

  As the seasons change, move forward.

Do not stay stuck in a prior season that has passed.

Each season brings its own challenges and its own gifts.

Learn from the challenges, embrace the gifts.

Move forward unencumbered!

Do not look back.

For it is written:

“Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on… forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead.”

Daily Inspiration-What Do You Hear?

Love

Cannot hear from God?

Rather than 1) recounting all that is going wrong (believe me, He already knows more about it than you do); or, 2) all that you want Him to do in your situation in excruciating detail (again, He already knows more about what is needed and when), simply be still.

Simply sit in thanksgiving for all He is and has done for you and simply praise Him.

Then, be quiet.

Be really quiet.

It is only then that you can hear His still small voice.

For, it is written:

“…but the Lord was not in the wind:

Daily Inspiration-Move On With Grace!

Love

People will use you up if you let them.

Be kind.

Be generous.

Have compassion.

But, do not allow yourself to be taken advantage of and used.

Move on with grace.

You are worth so much more!

For it is written:

“And whoever will not receive you nor hear your words, when you depart from that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet.”

Daily Inspiration-Peace Lies In Relationship

Love

Religion in and of itself brings little peace to the weary soul journeying through this world.

Relationship with Jesus, on the other hand, is a total game changer.

For it is written:

“Come unto me, all you that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and you shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

Daily Inspiration-Victim or Victorious?

Love

Jesus never promised us a rose garden.

He told us in this world we would have tribulation, but He has overcome the world.

He also told us, as it is written,

“Peace I leave you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you.  Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”

Jesus

John 14:27

The choice is yours really.

You can live defeated with a victim mentality or fully follow Him and His ways and walk victorious  in the peace He promised.

Daily Inspiration-Beyond the Mundane!

Love

Have you ever experienced someone thinking that what you do in your life is somehow invalid if it does not look like what they do in their life?

Their vision is limited to their own sphere of existence.

Do not let the words of another ever denigrate what God has put in your heart.

True vision sees beyond the mundane.

 

For it is written:

“We walk by faith and not by sight.”
