Have you ever been so sick of yourself? Well for me, I’m sick of not being satisfied. Every day I want something new. New food, new clothes, new drinks, new hairstyle, new song, new funny video, new, new, new. I always have to have something new. Our human nature is so fragile, can we ever go a day without wanting something new. The mundane gets mundane and we feel like we are missing out on something we don’t have. It is a really bad disease that I want to break free from. The disease of feeling like I don’t have enough when in reality I have everything. The enemy loves to make us feel like we need more and more. When God has said, do not worry, I will supply all your needs. Most of our wants are not what we need. I want a new shirt but I don’t need it. I want to spend money but I do not need to. I want to change something about myself but I don’t need to, I’m so sick, sick of all of my wants. I need more of my needs.
Big
What God has next for you is gonna be big.
The past will never return. Push forward to the future. God’s get ready to move.
It’s gonna be BIG!
Be You
Never lose who you truly are. You may walk through many fires and face much pain, but don’t forget who you are. Don’t let other people’s words, or actions define who you are. Sure they may say things about you, sure they may do things to you, but you.. don’t ever lose you. You are not who other people say you are, you are who God says you are. People only get to see the part of you that you allow them to see. No one sees all of you except for God. Even if someone looks into to your life, future or current situation without you knowing it, they will never fully grasp or understand who you truly are. None of us will ever know the thoughts or the feelings that another person goes through. We can never comprehend the human mind. All you can do is be the best version of yourself at all times and do not put on a show for others to make them see the real you because they will never know. Yes, their words and actions may have caused you harm in the moment or maybe even for years but you were never the problem , they were. No decent person on this earth would purposely cause someone pain. Don’t be that person. Don’t be the person who holds themselves back from enjoying life to please others. You are free today, in this moment be alive. God has set you free. Be you. Be kind. Be happy. Be free. Always be you.
I’m So Free
There’s nothing in my past that I want. All I want is my future. That’s it.
Live in the freedom that God has given you. You’re time to shine is now and always.
Be free.
Reflect
Reflect on how God has been gracious to you. He has protected you in more ways than you know. He has blessed you for your obedience and has never forgotten you. There is much more up ahead than you know. God loves you and you will always be loved.
God’s Plan
No one can stop God’s plan.
Joseph’s brothers couldn’t stop his dreams from being fulfilled.
Saul could not kill David since he was anointed as the next king.
Ishmael did not prevent Abraham from having Isaac.
The pharisees could not keep Jesus from the cross and resurrection.
4 Years
What if you were trapped & strapped down for 4 years?
What if you couldn’t breathe for 4 years?
What if you suffocated for 4 years?
What if every time you tried, you fail for 4 years?
4. Years.
Through all your success there’s a deep pain.
The enemy must really want to try to stop you from being something or getting anywhere
He has to use so many roadblocks, but wait..
What if, for years God has pulled you through?
For years God has saved your life.
For years you have never been alone.
God has protected you for years. You were always safe and sound. Even in the midst of fire.
You are loved and will be loved for many years.
4 all your years.
Truth
I don’t know what is worse than a racist pastor. Maybe you could think of something.
But the words racist and pastor should not be in the same sentence or category.
It is as if they missed the whole point of the gospel and the Bible entirely.
We are all made in his image. That means all. All means everyone. Not some. Not the people we like only.
It is a shame that so many people will get hurt in the church purposely by the hands or mouth of a person who has the title of a pastor but is nothing like one.
Listen, there is nothing wrong with you. If you have ever been treated less than because of the color of your skin, it is person tearing you down that way who has to answer God. We all do. No one is free from judgement day.
PRAY for your enemies but don’t let them take over your life. Take your life back.
The life that they tried to destroy with their their lips can be redeemed with praise.
PRAISE your Heavenly Father for giving you hope and love and peace. The world cannot give you that peace.
God does not see you as a color. He see you as chosen.
That is the TRUTH.
Like Yourself
Like yourself enough to laugh
Like yourself enough to forgive others and stop living in your past
Like yourself enough to follow God’s plan for your life
Like yourself enough to be nice to yourself
Like yourself enough to be loving and caring to others
Like yourself enough to have fun, to enjoy life, to live each day to the fullest
Like yourself
Past Haunting
Can’t shake the memories
of who you used to be
and all the things you once had.
You love the attention you got,
the love you once received.
It seems like every time you step up now
the enemy finds a reason to bring you back down.
Whatever God allows to happen is for your good,
for you to not take life for granted,
for you to see the blessings that are here now.
Man, it’s hard
to be in the middle of not where you once were
but not where you want to be.
How ’bout we start wanting to be right where we are.
Living in the past won’t change it.
Living in the future can’t create it.
Let your past be a lesson for you.
Don’t let it haunt you.
