It's not all about me.....
You never know how something you do or say affects someone. It could be
the person behind you that over hears your conversation that is
inspired to see something positive in their life. It is a smile as you
open the door for someone that takes them out of the self defeating
space they've been in all day. It's that call just to say hey that makes
a person put down the razor blade (I lived this one so I know of what I
speak).
Sometimes we become so focused on what we need and
what we're dealing with that we forget that our purpose is to give just
as much as we receive. There are persons who need that encouraging word
or that help to get them through just as much as we do and it's our God
given charge to do so. The smallest word or the littlest deed can have
the largest affect on someone's life.
This also applies to allowing someone to help you in your time of need.
If you're anything like me, I strongly dislike asking for help and it
took a minute for me to humble myself enough to ask for assistance. But,
my friends and family have helped me to understand that in not asking
for help with some things, I'm actually blocking other persons blessings
because God has placed them in my space to help me and I'm not allowing
them to complete their God given task. Know that people want to help
you just as much as you're willing to be a help to them. It's a two way
street and sometimes we allow our pride to turn it into a one way dead
end. Just food for thought...
At the end of the day, be
willing, be positive, and be accepting to receive. You never know who
you will affect and whose life you will touch.
The problem didn't win. You're still here. #Grace is yours to recover your strength & testify that #YouMadeIt!
I
once read about an art competition where the theme was “peace.”
Interestingly, the judges unanimously awarded the first prize to an
artist who painted a raging storm, with a single tree atop a cliff as
the subject.
You might be wondering what the judges saw in
this. But give the winning canvas a closer look and you would see that
tucked away in a crevice of the cliff was a family of eagles snug in
their nest. The eaglets were safe under the shelter of the mother
eagle’s wings.
This is the kind of peace that Jesus gives to
you and me! Peace is not the absence of trouble, but the presence of our
Savior, Jesus, even in the midst of a storm. Right now, even if you are
in the midst of a crisis, receive His peace that surpasses all
understanding, and let His loving presence calm every storm in your
heart.

Give
the enemy NO place in your life! Joshua was given a clear Word from God
concerning his enemies. God said NO enemy of Isreal would be left
standing! God will do for you what He did for Joshua. He will give you a
clear Word. Move quickly in that word, and you will be positioned to
see a miracle of God! #BE STRONG! - Living Majestically!
God heals wounds don't spend time re opening them. #justsaying
Jesus came to give us an alternative. An opportunity to choose- the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus!!
Sometimes the process is more important than the outcome.

You
may be waiting on God, but God is waiting on you. If you’ll do what you
know God is asking you to do, your faithfulness will activate His
favor, increase & blessing.
