Losing can be an excellent opportunity for growth
Learning has never been so valuable till you reach the point in life wherein you are responsible for your own actions. You fight and live your everyday life full of making decisions and weighing what to and what not to do. You may also have difficult times choosing what needs to be done and what is the best thing to do. You can be put in a situation where you expect things to unfold the way you hope to be, only to discover that changes can also happen. It is hard to accept things when they are not what we hope and pray for them to be. It is painful…

God can also bless you
Don’t envy others on how God blesses them because God is greater, and He blesses you also. God does not only bless chosen people but all of us. He does not only provide blessings for those who ask but also for those in need of it. Before we asked what we wanted, He had already prepared everything. The breath we take every second of the day is part of His miracles and favor in us. You don’t always have to match what blessings you intend to receive and what He can give just to say you are blessed. He finds ways in you that you don’t have to route everything…

Your Failures can never define you
Our shortcomings are sometimes exposed in unexpected times in unexpected places. We were beyond prepared to do something, but things could still get out of control. Moments come when we unconsciously show our weakness. We may cry, weep, suffer, go through rough times and even start to lose our motivations. We could also lose our interest and inspiration. But what if all of these drawbacks that we are experiencing can be God’s way of finding favor in us? What if He uses them for us to realize the greater purpose? Have you ever imagined how you get to where you are right now? It may be because it is part…

When God makes you wait, it means something great is coming
There are times when God will make you wait for things He prepared for you. In Him nothing is delayed nor too early. Everything happens in His own perfect timing. Put in mind that God knows your heart. He knows what you long for, what you are earning for. He knows the depths of your laughter and tears. He understands how things and certain events would affect your life. He cares for you when things don’t go your way. He encompasses all that you are; all that you feel, what you are going through and even things that are yet to unfold for you. Not all the time that the…

Express yourself freely to Him, and find comfort in His message
You are strong, but you can be vulnerable too. You can’t avoid sadness and loneliness. You become so defenseless in unseen battles, enemies, and temptations. You become so clueless about what to do, tired of deciding what to say, or burdened enough to carry more load on your back. Sometimes, we are so anxious and uncomfortable with being one that we choose to express it in ways to relieve ourselves. When we feel too much weight, we sometimes alleviate our situations through a task that diverts our attention. When we do so, we unconsciously carry our burdens on the inside, Everything is slowly building up and just waiting to explode…

Sometimes, God answers your Prayers by giving you Tiny Seeds
God is listening to your prayers, but He answers in ways you can’t easily comprehend. Sometimes, He gives you tiny seeds in the form of simple blessings. You may look at them as something ordinary, but behind what you see is a huge gift that God wants you to treasure. Do not just treat His provisions as simple things. Remember that God treats them as very important. Pray that He will open your mind so that you will have the knowledge and wisdom to take good care of His seeds. When the perfect time comes, you will realize that all this time, what you’ve been praying for is already in…

God gives you the chance to live and be Named with your Worth and Purpose
Our existence in this world varies in different stages. As humans of complex nature, we also have different needs and wants. We are accompanied by different beliefs and cultures. We are shaped by various environments, raised, and taken care of in different ways. But as we progress, we realize an internal need for purpose. As adults, we live life in a way we are called to. We want to be bound with purpose as a form of force that helps us to go on and live life. In doing things we need to do, we sometimes branch ourselves from a purpose that will help us be on the right track.…

Sometimes, God’s answers take Longer than you Expect
God doesn’t always move according to your plans. He doesn’t depend on your wisdom and understanding. He acknowledges your prayers, but there will be moments when you need to wait for His answers. And it’s not because He wants to punish you or make you feel abandoned. He wants you to trust Him more than you rely on your own timeline. There’s nothing wrong with making your own plans, but learn the habit of consulting God before you decide to do something. Treat Him as your King and ask for His approval. Pray for His guidance and wisdom. You can’t stop His plans. He moves according to His purpose. You…

I know that I am not Perfect that’s why I need God’s Guidance
There are days when I feel scared and anxious. When I experience unexpected circumstances, I tend to withdraw from the crowd and keep my emotions inside. Even when it hurts, I try to keep myself together so that I’ll appear strong and responsible. But then deep within, my heart is so broken. I am not perfect. People would look at me as if I’m a clean and very innocent person. But just like anyone else, I do have a lot of struggles in life. And because I tried to hide the real me, I find myself carrying the expectations of others. That’s when I realized that it’s better to appear…

You can be yourself in the eyes of GOD –vulnerable and broken
Laughter and sadness come in a package in our lives. Our everyday living comprises both sides of the story, happiness and despair. In times of joy, we rejoice and laugh. In times of sadness, we weep and cry, but this umbrella is our very core of being a human. Being vulnerable is something not all of us are willing to show to others. We protect our weak side from being exposed to people and situations that we deem harmful and may disturb our peace. But please do remember, there’s one thing that you have to see. One thing is that you should open your eyes and know that you can…
