God’s got your back
The stronger the enemy attacks you, the greater the value will be. The enemy mostly attacks what is important to you. He strikes your relationships. He surrounds you with temptations and options, slowly destroying your treasure. Yes, you have the drive and the choice to make in your life, but that doesn’t excuse you from what the enemy wants from you. He will shower you with things that are very convincing yet very soul-destructive choices. He will convince you that you are only doing what’s best or maybe try to make you feel better from guilt by convincing you that it is what other people are doing. He could also…

Something in your Life will Always be more Significant Than your own Desires
To experience absolute freedom in this life, you must acknowledge the reality that there will always be something and someone more significant than you. Doing your best based on being recognized is fine, but to be the best of the best in one thing will only bring you a distraction. Being on the top will give you an ecstatic feeling that is very addicting but know that that place is replaceable. You will never be satisfied if you just have yourself on your life’s journey. If you only rely on happiness for things that you will achieve, you will not experience genuine peace and absolute joy. Real success and victory…

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…

It takes an obedient and humble heart to stay in His presence. So if you think that you are still following your own will and plans, then it’s time for you to surrender everything to Him. Do not depend on your own understanding. Call upon His Name and ask for guidance. You can’t follow Him according to your own efforts and strengths. You need His love to change and heal your wounds inside. You need His…
