Similar to a butterfly, I’ve gone through a metamorphosis, been released from my dark cocoon, embraced my wings, and soared!
Our faith is built in the dark, in the valleys, and during the back-breaking battles in life.
When we are stuck in a rut we are being invited to grow and expand.
The beauty of adversity is that when we hit bottom, the only way to go is up.
When life gets hectic and you feel overwhelmed, take a moment to focus on the people and things you are most grateful for. When you have an attitude of gratitude, frustrating troubles will fall by the wayside.
The Lord doesn’t always make our paths smooth sailing, but He does make it possible to rise above adversity.
God is calling you to relinquish your old habits and beliefs that are holding you back from being all He called you to be. To trust that He has something bigger and better in store for you.
Although we may encounter dark seasons, when we’re filled with joy we’ll have confident expectations that the sun will soon return and dark clouds will pass.
When we no longer have the strength to keep on walking, God will carry us. His strength is enough for you and I.
The more you are grateful for what you have the more you can live fully in the present. When you live in the present moment the greater you can build stepping stones for a brighter future.
You see, God didn’t create us to merely survive. He created us to thrive! We were made for abundant life.
Forgiveness is empowering for the forgiver. Years of resentment, frustration, and pain are set FREE!
Our job on earth isn’t to criticize, reject, or judge. Our purpose is to offer a helping hand, compassion, and mercy. We are to do unto others as we hope they would do unto us.
Today, I challenge you to pay it forward. You don’t need to save a village—only one lost soul. Be the reflection of Christ and shine His light. The cost is little, but the reward is rich.
We each have the power to give. It’s the most gratifying feeling ever. By reaching out to help another human being you’re sending ripples of positive change.
No matter where you once were, no matter how dark your storm, God doesn’t want you to remain there. Overcoming may not be easy, but it’s possible when you ask your Father to battle for you.
Dear God, help us to be a living example of being Christ-centered. Purify the areas in our lives where we allowed the world and enemy to gain access. Please direct us into authentic truth so that all may see You in us.
Sometimes we have to reach rock bottom before we’re willing to rise up and overcome our trials.
The more you are grateful for what you have, the more you can live fully in the present.
Dare to believe that you make a significant difference in our world.
Hope is the one positive force to help us persevere during our darkest storms. Jesus gives us hope when He walks beside us through the fiery furnace and helps us rise above adversity.
