Live Your Present Like it’s The Only Time You Have
You can’t avoid getting too bombarded with what to do to get your goals. There are times when your mind just freely wonders what is to happen until it reaches the point that it’ll trap you with worries and concerns about things that are not yet happening. You get so concerned about what might happen that in every step you take, you can’t ignore but doubt what’s coming. You base your decisions on your past and things that happened where you lay your regrets into. Because of it, you fill your life with something that you seem too particular about what would happen, even if nothing is happening yet. When…

Day 283 – Proverbs 9:11
For through wisdom your days will be many, and years will be added to your life. Proverbs 9:11, NIV If you want to experience long life here on earth, then seek the wisdom of God and not just the temporary knowledge of this world. Fix your eyes on things that will lead you to a fulfilled life. Wisdom is there the moment you fear God. So choose to acknowledge His Presence and always keep in mind that you need His guidance. Do not rely on your own understanding. There may be moments when you feel like you already know what you are doing but choose to wait for God’s approval.…

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…

Day 276 – 1 Timothy 6:11
But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness. 1 Timothy 6:11, NIV Continue to do what is right in the eyes of God. You may think that people don’t appreciate what you are doing in secret, but God sees you. He knows your heart, so never give up and allow the Holy Spirit to minister to you. Only then will you see His fruits in your life. Keep your faith and treat others with love. Choose to endure in times of hardships and be gentle. Let your actions reflect who your God is. Pursue godliness even in moments when you…

God can Turn Your Fear Into an Instrument for Your Breakthrough
There were times in your life wherein you fought so hard for something or someone. The battle between you and what surrounds you became an everyday struggle to contest what you believe to what really is happening. There were events in your life where you were ready to sit down and bait for all you’ve got, just thinking about the present and sacrificing all your strength. But when matters turn out to be what we were not so confident to be, we lose our motivation to go on and move on. Sometimes, it is easy to say that life is full of ups and downs, but when matters are where…

Allow God to let you Grow in Places He’ll Put You
Don’t stuff yourself in a place that is too small for you. Don’t force yourself to fit into a position too tight. It would delay your growth. Sometimes, God allows us to choose to let go of things that aren’t for us anymore. It may be because He knows that you’ve grown there already, and you are to be plotted once again in places that will help you develop more. So let God uproot you and allow yourself also to let go. When we are so used to one thing, we sometimes see ourselves settling in as we find comfort there. But if we want to grow, the journey itself…

Day 267- Mark 10: 6-9
“But at the beginning of creation God ‘made them male and female.’ ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate. mark 10: 6-9, NIV Marriage is holy in the eyes of God. It is Him who joined two individuals together, and no one should separate them. If you are a married person, always remember that God allowed you to be together with your spouse for a purpose. Let Him be the center of your relationship,…

Declare it often, even when you don’t know what’s happening
We can undeniably tell how unpredictable things are. We visualize our visions, plan great things, and even sort our own future. The itineraries of how our tomorrow would turn out to how we carve by our own self-written destiny. We work hard, make a sacrifice, cry and break until we build ourselves again. Of course, these things are easier said than done. But their in-betweens are our image of how we fail and are shattered from something that brought us more profound than our tears. Humans as we are, we tremble in our own knees when things don’t happen the way we planned them to be. But please do remember…

Acknowledge your weakness, and there, you will discover your strength.
In times of failure, we find ourselves sinking into our own grief. We review and remember ourselves as nothing but a bunch of failures and aches. Our weakness then slowly surfaced and became our image. Little do we know that it becomes how we value ourselves as we acknowledge it so. In moments when everything, we have planned for turns into something we feared most, the very thing we do is to turn away and have the will to move on — or so we think so. Moving on is a symbol of strength, but please don’t forget, along with it is your acknowledgment of your own weakness and that…
