Don’t Get Discouraged

Waiting can get hard but don’t get discouraged. Wait patiently and confidently.

Good Reason

Here is a very good reason to let God’s Spirit control your mind.

Read: Romans 8:6

6 So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace.

Never, Never

Allowing yourself to have bad behavior and unpleasant language will never be pleasing to God.

Read: Romans 8:7-8

7 For the sinful nature is always hostile to God. It never did obey God’s laws, and it never will. 8 That’s why those who are still under the control of their sinful nature can never please God.

Keep Moving

When you trip and stumble get right back on track and keep it moving.

Read: Psalms 37:23-24

The Lord directs the steps of the godly.

He delights in every detail of their lives.

24 Though they stumble, they will never fall,

for the Lord holds them by the hand.

Not Your Problem

God knows how to take care of the good and the bad.  So neither is your problem.

Read: 2 Peter 2:7,9

But God also rescued Lot out of Sodom because he was a righteous man who was sick of the shameful immorality of the wicked people around him.

No to Fear

Understand that everything serves God’s Plan. When you don’t understand just know to trust His Word.

Read: Psalm 119:89-91,96

Your eternal word, O Lord,

stands firm in heaven.

90 Your faithfulness extends to every generation,

as enduring as the earth you created.

91 Your regulations remain true to this day,

for everything serves your plans.

96 Even perfection has its limits,
    but your commands have no limit.

Stay Alert

In this season it is important that you stay alert and give no place to the enemy in your affairs nor in your life. Be vigilant and stand strong in your Faith.

Read: I Peter 5:8-9

Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. 9 Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith. Remember that your family of believers all over the world is going through the same kind of suffering you are.

He Cares

Today is special to me. It’s the day God brought me into this world through my parents and I’m grateful. The one thing I’ve learned and know on life’s journey is God cares for me and He cares for you too.

Read: I Peter 5:7

Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.

Morsels of Kindness Gathering

Recently, some dear friends of mine opened up their home to me and gave me a Morsels of Kindness gathering. They asked me to show up with my books and what happened next was truly awesome. God gave me the opportunity to share a Morsel of Kindness with each person present and God blessed them each with a special word just for them. It was amazing and humbling at the same time. I enjoyed the opportunity to be present with them during this time.

Morsels
What a blessing to share my Morsels.

My friend Pat, of Pat’s Delites, made delicious mini “morsel” desserts for the guests at the end of the event. Though it was difficult, God blessed me with some strong will power to resist the temptation to eat them all! If you’d like to follow Pat Delites, you can find them on Instagram and Facebook.

God is so good!

Thanks, Pat’s Delites!

A Lot Going On

It is a busy time. Running here and there, needing to get so much done, but do stop and humble yourself. You can’t do everything so let God help.

Read: I Peter 5:6

So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor.
