God always got you
God is always there with you, no matter what your situation is. He is there in your painful seasons of rejection and brokenness, ready to listen to you. His ears are wide open to everything that is bothering you, on how people treated you and how disappointed you might have felt. Just tell Him everything and release to Him the pain and sadness you have felt. Allow yourself to grieve whatever loss you might have been experiencing. The God that you are serving is a healer, so receive His help and let him teach you how to handle your emotions and feelings. Stay driven by His ways. He is there…

There is so much more that is Waiting for you
All the failures, rejections, and pain you have experienced are not there to stop you from what God destined you for. Those things that life could bring you to get you closer to Him. It reminded you that you are not alone in your journey, and He is always there to help you. You might feel like it is holding you back and pulling you down to a worse situation. It may look more prominent because you are looking at it too closely. But if you step backward, you will see God is making a way for you. You just have to hold on and go through things that will…

Accepting the Pain Doesn’t Always mean Feeling Better about it
Sometimes, pain’s message and purpose are louder than the pain itself. When you get a bruise or physical wound, automatically, you will respond by remedying it. However, when your heart and soul get wounded, its cause is not always clear. You need to go to your deeper state and have to be willing to be involved in the process of diving in. But know that, you will not dive on it alone. Do not worry, for no matter how deep it might be, God can always pull you up to the surface. He just wants you to see the reasons for yourself. He wants you to know how the pain…

Sometimes, what Hurts you Affects what you do
A simple act that happens even in a concise amount of time can affect how you think and behave about things or people. It will last for a while or even a lifetime if left unhealed. It does not mean that the past will stay in the past. Because what happened in the past will always find its way to appear in the future. Such things caused you so much pain and trouble. The event may have occurred already, but how you now respond to things has changed. You may deny it and say it’s done already, but be careful because it may leave you with an unhealed wound. Some…

Surrender all your Regrets to God
You will fail to see the present blessings if you keep on carrying all the regrets of the past. You won’t be able to treasure the precious moments God gave you because you chose to live with pain. Please be kind to yourself. You are still learning. Forgive and let go. The best way for you to do it is to surrender to God all the regrets that you are still hiding. Expose them in His presence, and He will help you turn that guilt into a lesson that you can never forget. You need to slowly accept that you can’t turn back time and change your decisions. It’s already…

Failure is a step that will lead you to win.
Without failures, you will not know how winning would work. The absence of failing will not complete the meaning of winning. Failures are typical; they happen many times and in different forms in your life. Some happen through events and people, while some linger within the heart and mind. It takes work to accept them. It may seem so easy to think that it happens to everyone, but it will feel so uncomfortable and heavy when it happens in our lives. Sometimes, it will lead you to isolate yourself and make you doubt yourself even more. You may start to regret and think of what more you could have done…

Failures will Teach you what Genuine Humility Is
The mistakes that you committed in the past can potentially open your eyes to the real status of your heart. How you react to them and the way you handle them will give you some ideas about how you see yourself. Sometimes, when we experience victories in life, we tend to put confidence in ourselves, thinking that we absolutely deserve the credit. And because of that mindset, we make decisions out of our own will and understanding. We fail to consider the desires of God and just do things that will satisfy our hearts. And the moment we experience the consequences of our choices, that’s when we realize that we…

You create your Life’s Meaning
Please don’t allow other people to dictate your life. Remember that they can easily change their minds, and it will make no sense to chase their expectations. Instead, create your own definition with God. Move and make choices according to His principles, and you will always be guided. Your life is not only a journey of finding meaning because God already planted your purpose inside your heart. You are not to find meaning, but you are to create it. Do not pressure yourself to write a perfect one. Remember, reality is not always perfect, and it will never be. You are meant to make mistakes because you are learning and…

Peace will Start to Flow in your Heart once you learn to Forgive Yourself
It is not easy to forgive and let go of the past, but you need to take some actions. What your heart longs for is not the apology from those that hurt you, but it hungers for acceptance and peace, which you deserve and what God wants for you. Forgiveness starts with you. It commences when you decide to be kind and gentle with yourself. You need to listen to what your pain tells you. You need to understand where it came from and how it was formed. You cannot keep blaming others because it is between you and yourself. All you can control is yourself and your mind. What…

Embrace reality and God will teach you how to Understand Things in your life
Reality will not always be what you expect it to be. Most of the time, the things in your life will happen not the way you want them to be but through uncontrolled events. Unexpected circumstances happen just like how the water on a river just flows so naturally. Sometimes your reality is hard to accept, especially when things are happening too far from how you planned and expected them to be. Sometimes, you will be disappointed and frustrated over something you cannot control because you constantly surround yourself with many what-ifs. You can’t help but think of what you could have done differently, and the results would have been…
