The Difficult Roads make the Journey more Meaningful
If you want a fulfilled life, then don’t wish for things to be easy. Instead, allow yourself to experience the hard roads because that’s where you will discover more of life. Growth happens when you go through challenges. When you meet circumstances that are out of your control, that’s when you will learn how to manage your emotions. They may appear difficult at first, but the moment you overcome them, you’ll slowly realize your potential. When you arrive at your destination, you won’t just thank God because you finally received what you prayed for, but you will feel overwhelmed because He used your journey to transform you into a better…

For you to grow personally, do not go back to what God saved you from
Meditate and convince yourself not to plant what has been uprooted already. God save you from things that aren’t good for you, something that would lead you to situations that might hurt you more. He already planned things well for you. He wants you to realize the lessons that you can cultivate inside your heart. He wants you to recognize that you deserve good in things. He loves you more than you can fathom. It is hard to let go of things that have already made us happy and comfortable. It is difficult for us to cut some things, events, and even people in our lives that drove us to…

Day 272 – Proverbs 28:6
Better the poor whose walk is blameless than the rich whose ways are perverse. Proverbs 28:6, NIV Do not focus on your riches. Instead, continue to walk in integrity. Do not compromise your values just for you to gain honor and wealth that you can’t take with you through eternity. It’s better to glorify God than experience temporary success that will just destroy you in the end. Do what is right and know that your Heavenly Father is watching over you. Treat is as a seed that will bear fruit in God’s perfect timing. Don’t worry because God sees what you are doing in the secret. He acknowledges your works.…

Don’t allow the Spirit of Entitlement to Consume you
Just because you exert an effort doesn’t mean you are already entitled to God’s blessings. Remember that it’s not about your skills or talents, but you live and enjoy this life because of His mercy and forgiveness. So don’t think highly of yourself. Yes, it’s good to be confident in the presence of God, but don’t allow that confidence to keep you away from the true source. The good things that you experienced are because of God’s grace. And it’s not something that you should own for yourself. God provided you with more than enough so that you’ll learn to share what you have with others. Remember that you won’t…

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.…

Day 270 – Proverbs 27:1
Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring. Proverbs 27:1, NIV You may have a lot of plans in life, and you may think that what you have can protect you from what’s coming, but remember that only God knows what’s ahead. So do not boast about tomorrow. Instead, humbly ask for His guidance and instructions. Do not rely on your own timeline. Your loving Father has great plans for you. So instead of looking at yourself and the riches that you have, focus on the goodness of God. Rely on His love, and He will prepare you for what’s coming. Include Him…

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…
