My heart just breaks & I pray for so so so many things.l hope you pray before you lay your head down at night & when you rise up in the morning & when life is good too you & when life hits hard or just when you need uplifting or want to lift up someone else. I hope you tell them you love them & that you'll be there for them. I hope you make time & spend time with them even if you don't have time or even if you don't want to.
Choose joy, choose love, choose forgiveness, choose redemption, choose honor, choose satisfaction; NOT HATE!!
Tell them thank you always, make them know you care; even if you don't want to. I hope your heart doesn't find hurt before love.
This lesson is something I have to tell my mind, my heart, my body & my soul every minute of everyday.
I was honored to hear a lesson from a friend recently on a subject that is always so prevalent on my mind. This friend put this subject into a perspective lesson for me I hope I never forget! For that I am so thankful. So the lesson goes like this:
II Corinthians 10:3 is warning Christians against active way of thinking, and about capturing our thoughts.
1)discerning thoughts-good or bad??
2) looking for Gods word for truth not lies!!
Philippians 4:4 Do not be anxious about anything. We need to encourage ourselves to filter our thoughts. Are you being reasonable in a healthy way? What is honorable and just? How to turn your thoughts around? We need to familiarize ourselves with these passages.
Ephesians 3:20 He can do abundantly more than I can!
3) Prayer-HAVE YOU PRAYED ABOUT IT & HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT IT? AS MUCH AS YOU HAVE TALKED ABOUT IT!!!
We don’t need to let our thoughts spiral out of control we need capture our emotions
PRAYER IS WHERE YOU START!!
NOT WHERE YOU FINISHED!!
God is faithful & God will provide a way.
At the end of the day, God is in control.
