Today, I’m hoping to encourage at least one person, with these words that Jesus laid on my heart to share..I couldn’t name every kind of sadness, hurt, trial, or hard thing each of you reading this is going through, even if i tried..there is so much wrong and sin in this world that we tend to start thinking things won’t get better..it doesn’t help that our world is so sinful..seeing it at its present time can get depressing, I know. :( sometimes I even, get sad seeing how much hurt we have to go through and feeling alone.. But that’s just it! We Christians, have this HUGE advantage..this HUGE hope we hold onto. “Christ Jesus!!” Jehovah Jireh, our All in All!… One of you may be reading this and may be going through something so hard that its breaking you down and it’s saddening you so much.. Rest assured that Jesus is holding you tonight. He is working through you in this trial even when you can’t see it..this hard time you’re going through, is only preparing you for a future only you could imagine to have! Look at this verse! “And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you” (1 Peter 5:10) … Y’all!! That verse excites me so much and brings immeasurable amounts of comfort. Our suffering is only for a short while..He is strengthening, restoring, and establishing you for great things in Christ Jesus’ name..So tell satan to leave with his doubt and be filled with hope in Christ..only there, you will find peace again..I love and care for you as a sister in Christ to share with you how I found joy again! Let Jesus give you that joy again in your life.. :) God is in control! <3

I don’t know about all of you but I truthfully can’t even fathom the thought that our Lord Jesus, the One who who made the heavens and earth, each star, each planet, each person and everything on earth, would love me so much to hold my heart and life in His mighty hands! I mean, Psalm 147:4 says “He determines the number of stars; He gives to all of them their names”…Did you grasp that? God decides how many stars there will be and gives each one it’s name!! And this verse too, gets me, “By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of His mouth” (Psalm 33:6)…So if you ever feel alone as if you have no one who cares or loves you, realize that the same God that created our whole galaxy, who names each star that He “breaths” out, and formed each human, that same God, our Lord Jesus, cared so much for you to be crucified at our expense so that we can experience His love! He’s holding us in his hands an He’s not going to let us go..we need only put all our trust in Him!

I definitely recommend all of you watch Louie Gigolo’s passion talk, “How Great is our God”.. I stand in awe & am so extremely astonished of what our God is capable of creating!!! Definitely put that on your list to watch, please! :) God bless!

“Where is He who has been born king of the Jews? For we saw His star when it rose and have come to worship Him” Matthew 2:2 —- I hope everyone is having a wonderfully blessed Christmas season!!! Remembering the true reason for the season..I know things can get hectic but let’s slow down and reminder that we celebrate this season to acknowledge Jesus’ birth! Our Saviour King!! And also! Keeping Christ in CHRISTmas because it IS all about Him. God bless each of you!!

Mon, 26 Nov 2012 21:49:44 -0500

“But God demonstrates His own love for us in this; while we were still sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8) … People!! God loves us Sooo much! He loves with an everlasting love! Even in our worst times, He loved us and was ready to take everything away so you could be set free from this world. God demonstrated His love by dying on the cross so that we may accept Him as our personal Saviour!! If that isn’t the biggest act of love, I don’t know what is. To actually die for people (us) who rejected and mocked His name, it astonishes me how much love Christ has for us. So if you are a true believer in Jesus Christ, there is no need to keep dwelling on who you once were, what you did and what your past was. He took that away and you became new once you prayed that prayer to accept Christ in you life. It’s like a new birth. You’re born again through Jesus’ precious blood! - “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” (2 Corinthians 5:17)
*ْYou are loved! You are cared for. Let Jesus Christ make you new and clean! Those who have accepted His sacrifice can explain what a wonderful thing it is to be born again! God bless!!

No matter what is thrown at me..no matter what what I go through and what has come my way, I will always be grateful for today. We need to trust in what the Lord has planned for us. “Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love, for in You I trust. Make me know the way I should go, for to You I lift my soul.” (Psalm 143:8) … even when the tears fall and it’s hard to contemplate life, when we still thank God for each day and the blessings He has given us, He gives us the strength to go on. “Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love Him” (James 1:12)

spiritualinspiration:

” …But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God” (1 Corinthians 6:11)

Do you know how valuable you are to God today? Not only did He pay a precious price in order to have a relationship with you; He cleansed you, set you apart, and made you brand new.

Think of it this way, if you saved your money and purchased a very rare and valuable piece of jewelry, you wouldn’t just leave it around the house or office. You probably wouldn’t wear it to the gym or to work in the yard. You wouldn’t let your children play with it. No, you would set it apart and protect it. You would polish it, keep it clean and show it off on special occasions. You would handle it carefully because it’s valuable.

Friend, understand today that you are valuable to Almighty God. He handles you carefully. As a follower of Jesus, He has set you apart for a specific purpose. He is proud of you. You are His most prized treasure. Let that sink down into your heart today. Meditate on His goodness as you realize your worth in Him!

Sat, 03 Nov 2012 17:13:02 -0400

“Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.” (Proverbs 19:2) - Ever worry about the now? How you don’t like that you don’t know what your future holds? Well God wouldn’t be God if we all knew what we were going to be doing next month, year..etc. what would His job be if we already had our lives planned and figured out. We need to realize that God has every part of our lives planned and He’s holding us tightly in His mighty hands. He won’t let us go. We need to trust His will. He knows our deepest desires through Him. But like this quote says, “If God intends it, nothing can prevent it” ..even the tough situations that we see impossible is so very easily possible for Jesus. If it is His will, nothing can prevent what He has planned for you. Never forget that. Don’t let a moment of sadness bring you down because you see it is impossible. For anything is possible with Christ. This verse will reassure you 100 % - “Jesus looked at them and said, ‘With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible’.” (Matthew 19:26)

Yes..very true indeed. For those out there who have a lot on your minds or hearts that all get jumbled up into one big emotional time bomb, please take comfort in knowing that Christ is there by your side even in the most troubling times. He’ll never leave you nor forsake you..and even in those moments where you feel as if you can’t even put a prayer together, know that God knows what’s on your heart and hears those silent prayers you can’t utter to speak. I tell you all this, but I have to look at what I’m sharing w/ all of you and learn from it as well. We can only rely on Christ and His unfailing love. Because this world will fail us but His love will never fail. .

Mon, 15 Oct 2012 00:18:26 -0400

When I find these quotes, they speak to me a much as they speak to you. I hope that what I share, helps you understand things more clear through Christ. This quote has given me hope in the past and still does. (Eph. 3:20) - “Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us” - No matter what you’re going through in life..when you feel lowest or just feel like life isn’t much what you thought it should be, realize that prayer to our great Lord is always heard and He can bless us even more that we can imagine if we truly want His will fulfilled. Trust Him w/ all your heart. Give Him all your love and time and have hope in Christ. He is doing so much in our lives.. just wait to see what He will reveal to us. He will bless you in His timing. He may even let you meet someone that will help you get through things.. This season in life when you feel down or depressed, is only for a moment, trust me. “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:” (Ecclesiastes 3:1)… I highly encourage you to read the the whole chapter of Ecclesiastes 3. There is a hope in this fallen world. His name is Jesus Christ…. (Taken with Instagram)

Fri, 12 Oct 2012 00:29:21 -0400

How absolutely true! If we truly want a relationship that is Christ centered and want it to last, both sides must have Christ as their biggest love and part of their lives. Our biggest goal should be to praise and serve our Lord Jesus. God never intended us to end up falling for someone that we couldn’t live a life honoring Him in all that we do. 2 Corinthians 6:14 says “Do not be yoked with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have darkness?” - It plainly says that we ( Christians ) should not marry unbelievers. We need to be equally yoked in Christ w/ our ‘potential other half’ so that we will want to serve our Lord in all aspects of marriage. And yes, marriage should be the intention in any relationship. If we don’t have any intentions on marriage with someone, we shouldn’t be in a relationship with them at all. We need to keep ourselves pure and holy before the Lord. - “How can a young person stay on the path of purity? By living according to Your word” (Psalm 119:9) - Hope this encouraged you even in the littlest way. :) (Taken with Instagram)

I know we all have desires, aspirations, and longings in this life. We want certain things we want or want things to happen the way we want..but this picture quote says it all. We shouldn’t spend too much time thinking about it because sometimes, those thoughts will make you discontent with where you are in life now. Here’s what we should do and it has given me peace about so much! … Have our thoughts and passions after what God wants for us. Instead of pouring our thoughts of things we want, pour them into the word and ask God to fill your heart of all the empty space and discontents we have now. Once we commit to His will and love our close relationship with Him, He will see we are ready for those desires to happen ( of coarse those desires must be of God’s will ).. It’s quite beautiful to see God’d plans for our lives be revealed. A beautiful story to see us commit to Him and then He will give us what we desire if it is unto Him. I read this verse today and fits so *Perfectly* - ” Delight thyself also in the LORD; and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart” ( Psalm 37:4) - Thank you also @conpro123 for letting me use this photo.

October is breast cancer awareness month. I ask you to please set aside some time to pray for all the victims of this terrible cancer.. Also, that they will find a cure to heal all those who suffer with this cancer. They need to know that we care and want to put a stop to cancer. 💗 Prayers going out to all the patients & families that are suffering from this illness. Always remember through prayer, & putting all trust in God, all things are possible. - “For with God nothing shall be impossible” ( Luke 1:37 ) (Taken with Instagram)

“But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.” (isaiah 64:8) - So exactly! We are the clay and Jesus Christ is our Potter! He molds us and forms us into what He sees we should be. We are the work of His hands. Isn’t that such an amazing thought?! To be continually molded by the One who created everyone and everything. The One who made the universe and all of creation. To put all our trust in our Abba, our Father, Our Saviour! Giving Him all of our faith to mold us into anything He sees best for our lives. Yes, that’s faith. . Faith In Christ. Having put all our faith in Him, He will mold us to a beautiful work of His hands. Think how amazingly blessed you truly are if you are a sincere born again Christian, to be molded my THE POTTER. Ahh! blows my mind. :D So thought I’d share this with y’all. I hope this enlivened your thoughts as much as it did mine. ;) God bless each and every one of you!

(Matthew 28:19-20) … it is so important for us ( Christians ) to be disciples of this world. God has clearly demanded we do so. Even small things like posting convicting and encouraging posts w/ scripture is reaching out. But we should really want to do more. ( But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.. Acts 6:4 ) - I have a desire to one day go to foreign countries and help the orphans and needy find Jesus. To give them Hope through Jesus Christ and tell them through Him, all things are possible. To go meet people who have so much less and give as much as myself to them. - “Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world” (James 1:27) - We must not ignore these verses. This should definitely be something that we long to do to honor Christ..to be disciples of Christ! <3

I absolutely loved this picture quote when I found it! It’s so very true! Yes, there are people in this world that Satan uses to try and make true Christians look bad. It happens all the time. People may make up lies, and talk very badly about you behind your back (gossip), but God knows all and knows who is innocent in this situation. I urge you to let the light of Christ shine through you so that if anyone should speak badly about you, those people will have a hard time believing those lies. And if we are truly saved, it won’t take a lot of effort to try and shine the light of Christ and not do wrong things. We will not want to be like the world but our goal will be to honor Christ in Everything!! Here is a perfect verse for what I’m saying here.. “In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good feeds and glorify your Father in heaven” (Matthew 5:16)
