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…

Your Mistakes are not your Identity

Don’t allow your Circumstances to Define you as a Person
The challenges around you can never define who you are. Just because you experienced rejection doesn’t mean you are not enough. Just because you commit mistakes doesn’t mean you are a failure.

Don’t doubt yourself. Don’t judge your life according to the problems that God allowed you to face. The difficulties you encounter can never change your identity in the eyes of God. He will always look at you with love regardless of the circumstances in front of you.…

Day 345 – Mark 16:7
But go, tell His disciples and Peter, ‘He is going ahead of you to Galilee; there you will see Him, just as He told you.’ Mark 16: 7, NIV During the day of Jesus’ resurrection, an angel of the Lord appeared to the women and said these words. He asked them to inform His disciples especially Peter about the good news. Before Jesus was crucified, Peter denied Him for three times, and that caused him to feel so guilty and sad. And there’s a wonderful reason why He was especially mentioned by the angel. It’s because Jesus is inviting him again in His arms. He didn’t condemn Peter for what…
