Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven

I want to encourage everyone reading this, that God is good and He has a good life planned for you, if you let Him be Lord of your life and show you. Look, I know you have been programmed to want things to happen fast, we all have. It's a fight to wait on God. It's a fight to just rest in Him. But let me encourage you, I have seen more good coming into my life by just resting and waiting on Him, than I ever have trying to rush and make things happen. Anything you make happen in your life is shortlived and temporary. But whatever God brings into your life will stand and nobody can take it away. A life of peace and joy can unfold if you just give God time to work in your life. Yeah, I know it's painful and it almost feels like you are being pressed on all sides as you wait. But the crushing is good, because just like when olives are pressed you get the oil. So to, must you be pressed for the annointing of the Lord to flow in your life. As I was sitting here today, I felt the Holy Spirit say to me "Just wait, it's coming". Once you let go completely is when you really see the flow of God in your life. I am so close to that point of completely letting go. I know I'm still holding on to a little bit. But I'm so close to letting that little bit go. Even in that, I wait for God to help me let go.

Think before you defend yourself

I get on social media and I do my best not to be critical of anyone. It's not my place. I do find it kind of interested how personal relationships, insecurities, and hurts are expressed where the whole world can see. Social media is like this enigma that continues to spark my interest. I find myself asking "why would he/she share something so deep and personal with people who don't know them or even care?". I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing. I just find myself being very curious and intrigued about why? There is one trend I see, on social media, that sparks a bit of concern. The amount of time we spend defending ourselves and our decisions on social media. I get concerned because I realize that when we spend a "noticeable" amount of time defending ourselves publicly, it is a strong indication that their is a much bigger private battle going on within . Social media speaks volumes to me about inner battles we go through. A thou

When we are troubled................

Have you have let the challenges you face, become a distraction for you? I have! Matter-a-fact, I'm going through it now. I hate it when I do that, because when you begin to let your heart become troubled about something, it's not long before fear begins to creeps in as well. Then I feel like it gets hard to focus on the other things you need to focus on, and it's hard to enjoy the blessings that you have. There is such a ripple effect when you let challenges trouble you. It leads to distraction, then, fear, then it starts to rob you of your peace, your joy and if you let it, it can completely consume you. God tells us to guard our hearts with all diligence. There are 2 things in the bible that God tells us to guard: Our hearts and our mouths. We have to watch what we let come into our hearts and we have to watch what we allow to proceed from our mouths. Even though we don't ignore challenges, it's important we don't let them take up residence in our

The best fight ever...............

Marriage.................................It's not easy. It is a colorful creation full of ups and downs, highs and lows. And some desperate times. It cannot be done without God. It is His invention and only He can navigate you through it. But marriage is worth fighting for. You don't always have the energy to fight anymore and that's ok. It's ok to not be ok. It's ok to not be ok with your marriage. It's ok to not be ok with your life. Just know that not being ok, with your marriage, doesn't mean that it's over. Not being ok, with your life, doesn't mean that its over. In the last couple weeks I have struggled with temptations of epic magnitude. God has seen me in my struggle. Struggling with my emotions. Struggling with my desires. Struggling to stay faithful. He saw me. He didn't look at me and say "I can't believe you are thinking this". He didn't look at me ans say "I can't believe you are
