Pressure

We are given such a short amount of time to make an impact.

so much pressure can be on us to decide who we want to be , where we want to live, and what we want to do.

allow God to relieve you of that pressure.

you can easily fear the future, and feel like you need to have it all figured out today.

instead, why not be content?

be ok with what you have today.

if you get what you want tomorrow, would that solve all your problems,

or would you just find something else to not be content about?

Proverbs 31:25 – She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future.

God’s Way

When we try to write our own story, we can miss the entire picture.

Every time we try to do it our own way, we end up feeling worse than when we started.

Isn’t it funny how the Prince of Peace actually lives up to his name but we’d rather try to find peace elsewhere.

When our hearts, minds, and souls drift away from what that reality, we get lost in our own bottomless pit struggling to find a way out.

Instead,

Choose God’s way.

His thoughts are higher, his ways are higher.

We may think we know but we have no idea what he’s doing behind the scenes.

What he is orchestrating.

You don’t see the demons he fights for you daily.

You don’t see the accidents he prevents from happening.

You don’t see the all the reasons why certain people are not in your life or why doors had to close.

But you can know that God will never leave you nor forsake you.

He knows what he is doing and nothing will stop his plan.

No demon in hell can ever stop God’s plan from happening.

His will be done.

His kingdom come.

Fish Out of Water

Being a Christian can feel like being a fish out of water.

You’re trying to breathe in a habitat that is not meant for you to survive.

The whole world is yelling and blaming you for everything and anything because they are blinded.

They don’t recognize the Holy Spirit because they are not looking for him.

We, who are filled with the spirit, see all the destruction.

Yet we are not alone.

There are many people trying to breathe in a world full of death, hate, and PRIDE.

People can’t see their own destruction.

How hard it is, to not want to yell out from the top of your lungs about these things are going on today.

The evil, the hate, the love for things that are bad, and the hate for things that are good.

Every job is affected, every career is influenced.

The world pushes their ideas on everyone and everything and gets upset whenever a Christian says anything because they know it is against what they believe.

Christian, don’t be shy, don’t get quiet. Get Louder.

God has not given us a a spirit of fear.

He has given us LOVE, POWER, and a SOUND MIND.

Wake up to God’s word. Let it play everyday and read it continuously, lest you be deceived and walk into the trap of the enemy.

Out of water , breathing for air.

You only have so much time left.

Plate Full

It baffles me how i can have so much that i am doing and still think it is not enough.

is it overachieving or just not fulfilling?

not being aware that my plate is full

way more than full.

it is overflowing with God’s grace , goodness, kindness and mercy

yet i am searching for more.

why is this?

why is it that our hearts can have everything and feel like we have nothing?

how can a woman look at her closet full of clothes and still go on a shopping spree and say she has nothing to wear?

oh i get it.

we want to control.

we want to control every aspect of every outcome.

we want everything at our finger tips, at our beck and call.

has society made us this way?

always throwing something new in our faces and telling us we have to have it.

is anyone content?

is anyone ok with just living with what they have or do they think they need more?

why would a man cheat when he has a beautiful wife and three kids at home?

losing everything to gain what we don’t need is a high price to pay.

we are so full we can’t tell ourselves when to stop even though we know we are about to explode.

reality has to slap us in the face.

we wake up and realize we’ve gone to far and have to begin again.

begin again.

this time with Jesus.

his cup runnneth over and you are full of peace and grace.

Let him be the one who keeps you full.

if you are gonna overflow with anything, let it be God’s grace.

No Point

There is no point in dreaming of something that you know is already going to happen.

While you wait to see it come to pass, let God be your main priority.

Let God be what wakes you up in the morning, excited for the day.

Let God be your reason for your smile at the end of the day.

There is no point of wanting what we cannot have especially when what we have now is already so good.

There is no point in wishing for a prophecy to come sooner because you think you are ready for it now.

That’s the whole point.

The point is to trust God. Believe God. Worship God.

Let your life point back to him in all things.

God is the point.

Without him,

There is no point.

Destiny

God has prepared a plan for you. As you walk on the path he has designed for you, you may encounter some roadblocks, hardships, challenges, and trials.

Get past those things.

You will see the Lord’s glory and goodness when you don’t give up.

Keep going on the path and walk right into your destiny.

Trauma

Life is not easy for anyone. If you have experienced trauma, you have experienced pain that should not be ignored.

I don’t know if I’ll ever have it easy but I know I’ll have to be strong.

If I look at what other’s have and think they are doing better than me because I am lacking something, then I can lose gratitude.

Trauma only becomes traumatizing when we feed into those thoughts.

Learn from your experiences and use them for the better.

Walk in Purpose

God removes people from your life, on purpose.

Some of us have very important destinies, on purpose.

You are no longer where you used to be, on purpose.

You are separated from the past, on purpose.

Don’t go back to where God freed you from.

You will never reach where you’re trying to go.

Trust in God and his plans for you.

The enemy has people working for him in all areas and all places.

The good news is , he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

Be strong, courageous, and recognize the tricks of the devil.

You are wiser and smarter than you know.

Eventually you will understand your calling and the journey to your purpose.

Live joyfully in your purpose.

Live freely in your purpose.

On purpose.

Walk in purpose.

Adversity Brings Us Closer to Jesus

Sometimes I am reminded of my need for God when I am hurting the most.

Adversity that is meant to break you, will only make you stronger when your unto Jesus for safety.

The name of the Lord is a strong tower. All who run to Him are safe.

Instead of turning away, turn towards.

Turn towards.
