“What if God’s ‘NO,’ is really a gift? His way to protect us from what we cannot see, provide something better than we can imagine, or be part of the process of growing us closer to Him.”

Having faith doesn’t mean I have all the answers. It means trusting God especially in the midst of uncertainty.

Remember, the Devil loves to make us focus on the little that’s wrong so we miss the big picture of all that’s right.

The only way our faith can strengthen is if we use it.

Spending some time getting quiet can really be the best remedy for tangled situations. Taking a step back from all the emotion, frustration, and exhaustion to sit quietly with Jesus will do more to untangle a mess than anything else I’ve ever found.

Not reaching back for what was lost in my yesterdays. And not reaching for what I hope will be in my tomorrow. But living fully with what is right in front of me. And truly seeing the gift of this moment.

This life is not about me. It’s about joining hands with Jesus to fulfill whatever tasks He sets before me and to share His love with all He brings my way.

It is a rare and beautiful thing when we choose to offer love in situations when most people would choose to scorn or ignore.

Raw emotions – anger, frustration, bitterness, resentment – are the feelings we tend to hide from people we want to impress but spew on those we love the most.

Free yourself from the complexities and drama of your life. Simplify. Look within. Within ourselves we all have the gifts and talents we need to fulfill the purpose we’ve been blessed with.

The bible does not say that a man’s education makes room for him, but that his gifts does. Education is not the key to success, it doesn’t guarantee anything; it is your gift that is the key to success.

Not reaching back for what was lost in my yesterdays. And not reaching for what I hope will be in my tomorrow. But living fully with what is right in front of me. And truly seeing the gift of this moment.
