God Prepared More For You
Your life is not a race, so take your time. There’s more ahead of you because God has already prepared everything. Your timeline is just unique. Your destiny and fate will unfold differently because God knows you more than anyone else. It will sometimes frustrate you because you feel like everyone else is ahead of you. You feel so alone in your path, and you start to lose motivation because what’s happening is different from how you planned it. But shift your perspective, and you will realize that delays are not rejections. It is a matter of how you wait and what you will learn in the process. He already…

God will teach you how to redirect your perspectives
Your perspective is as essential as it is with breathing. Your soul breathes through it and how you will lead your life depends on it. You can empower yourself by starting with how you view things in life. It is like your soul’s eyes. That is why, how you see things will reflect your actions and words. But along the journey, God will help you. Remember, nothing is wrong with you. There are just things that you need to change for your own good. He loves you so much that He wants you to see more treasures in this life. Sometimes, God will expose us to things we cannot understand.…

I’d rather take the Pain than live Life without Real Joy and Love within
I thought a happy life meant living without pain and problems. I thought it was about protecting yourself from potential heartaches. You see, wounds are scary. They can traumatize you and lead you to misery. It’s not good. Period. This was my mindset before, and because I was full of fear within, the pain became my number one enemy. I tried to live life protecting myself from the things that could possibly break me in the end. I was like a tiny house built on a very weak foundation. My roof was made of leaves, my windows were wide open because of the wounds, and I don’t have any doors…

God will Sometimes Teach you Essential things Through other People
There is wonder in meeting people in your life. You will learn a lot from them.

Sometimes, you can find the Answers in Moments of Silence and Peace
We all seek answers, especially in situations that we cannot understand. There will be moments in our lives when everything seems too much. There is too much noise whispering to us what we are supposed to be doing. There is also noise that could affect our situation. Such words only make our worries and doubts worse. However, answers are often found in places and moments where noise is absent. You need to put yourself in a place where you can think alone and listen intently to your thoughts. Things in your mind that are sometimes left unanswered will always wire themselves into something that will make things worse. That is…

Sometimes, Losing means Gaining in the presence of God
Losing is not bad, but it is a matter of perspective. When you lose, you feel like a part of you has been torn apart or taken away from you. What’s worse is that you feel like what you have been working so hard for suddenly fades like nothing happened. Watching what you have worked hard for just taken for granted by the people who did not even know what you’ve experienced is painful. When your efforts and sacrifices depend on the standards of people who will not see your value, then whatever you do will never meet their expectations. That is why it is vital to put your measures…

God knows why it Hurts
Your tears are meaningful to God simply because He knows the stories behind them. So if you think that nobody cares for you, then remember your Heavenly Father. He knows what you are going through. He is aware of the exact reasons behind your deepest wounds. You are not alone. God understands you. In fact, He knows you better than you know yourself. You may ask why it hurts so much, but He holds the answer. If you think you can no longer handle the pain, then cry it out to God, and He will give you the comfort and assurance you need. Stay in His arms and let His…

God’s got your back
The stronger the enemy attacks you, the greater the value will be. The enemy mostly attacks what is important to you. He strikes your relationships. He surrounds you with temptations and options, slowly destroying your treasure. Yes, you have the drive and the choice to make in your life, but that doesn’t excuse you from what the enemy wants from you. He will shower you with things that are very convincing yet very soul-destructive choices. He will convince you that you are only doing what’s best or maybe try to make you feel better from guilt by convincing you that it is what other people are doing. He could also…

There are days when you can’t find your way out. The future is so blurry, and it feels like you are surrounded by darkness. If you can’t see hope in the present, choose to remember God’s faithfulness. Look back and recall the amazing miracles that He did in the past.
