Pray that God will give you the Courage to Accept the Lessons Behind your Pain
Sometimes, the truth hurts. No matter how much you try to walk away from the reality that you are living in, God will still allow things to happen just for you to wake up and face your problems. Running away from the struggles won’t help you. You need to learn how to accept the painful truths in life. And it’s not that God wants to punish or destroy you. He just wants you to experience the fullness of what He prepared. And usually, it starts by refining your soul, then pruning the unfruitful branches in your life, and purifying your heart. The process is not easy. Many times, you will…

John 21:19, NIV
Jesus said this to indicate the kind of death by which Peter would glorify God. Then he said to him, “Follow me!” John 21:19, NIV After Simon Peter betrayed Jesus, our Savior still invited him to follow His ways. He redeemed Peter and encouraged him to feed and care for His sheep. He trusted Peter again despite all the mistakes that He had made in the past. You see, Jesus forgives the sinners. If He could redeem Peter, then He can absolutely save you. But the one thing you need to do is humble yourself and surrender everything in His presence. Come to Him, and don’t let the guilt fully…

Sometimes, God speaks through your Reality
God can send a very important message through the present situation that you are facing. He speaks behind the actions and words of the people around you. He sends warning through the reality that’s in front of you, but sad to say, you make things too complicated for Him to connect to you. Sometimes, your expectations are just too far from what He wanted to say. Your heart wants something great, divine, and holy just for you to get His message. But what if God is already speaking, and you just fail to recognize His voice? What if He is already correcting you through the behavior of other people? You…
