Joy is a choice, and it’s something we fight for and choose.
We are doing a huge disservice to a dying world if a manifestation of the joy in us is not coming out of us.
Joy is a characteristic of spiritual maturity and of surrender.
You are one belief away from breakthrough. It’s a choice, so choose the next right thing, you can do it!
Everything we encounter in life is an opportunity to choose God and in turn become more like Him in the process. Quick contentment fixes are corner cutters; when we cut the corner and cut the process, we miss what God wants to do.
You see, what we do with what He gives us determines how much more we will get.
Surrender and sacrifice sets you up for success with God.
When we know that His plans are to prosper us and give us hope and future, we bow down at once to the blessing of pruning, knowing that the change that will take place in us, will take us places.
Isolation is not a healthy ‘coping’ method, it’s like quarantining yourself in a gas chamber!
Everything fades away when we lock eyes with the one who calls us His own.
