Romans 12:1, NIV
Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God – this is your true and proper worship. Romans 12:1, NIV Honor God by the way you present your body. Offer it as a living sacrifice. This is a form of worship. It’s not just about singing songs and lifting your hands, but it’s also about offering your bodies to Him. Take good care of what He gave you. Do not take His blessings for granted. Do not abuse your body or do things that dishonor your Creator. God treats you as His own. He…

Romans 8:18, NIV
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. Romans 8:18, NIV You never really know what’s waiting for you in the Kingdom of God. You may not understand the reason why you need to go through suffering and experience so much pain but keep in mind that God is listening to your cries. He is preparing something incomprehensible for you. Our sufferings are nothing compared to the glory that will be revealed to us. So choose to persevere. Keep walking along the path that God wants you to take. Believe with all your heart that everything you offer to…

Acts 24:16, NIV
So I strive always to keep my conscience clear before God and man. Acts 24:16, NIV This is what Paul explained to the governor in Caesarea. He was accused as a troublemaker and was believed to be a ringleader of a Nazarene sect (this is what they labeled Christians in the early days). When Paul tried to testify about his faith, he never failed to glorify God through the words that he said. He strived to keep His conscience clear before God and man. He remained faithful and true to the words that He said, fearing nothing. This moment was not easy, but Paul learned to present himself as a…

Will you still believe in God even if you can’t Hear the Answers to your Questions?
Faith begins the moment you choose to stay with Him, even if you can’t understand what’s happening. It is not about knowing all the answers, but it’s all about believing in God’s promises, even if you can’t see them yet. So if you can’t hear the voice of God in this season, then maybe what He wants you to do is simply trust Him. If you can’t feel His presence, then maybe this is the perfect time for you to exercise your faith. Trust Him even in moments when you are in pain. Your negative feelings can never invalidate God’s existence. Just because you are not okay doesn’t mean God…

Embracing the journey will help you Appreciate your Victories
The destination would mean nothing if you weren’t able to enjoy the journey that God allowed you to take. There’s something in the process that makes your feel fulfilled on the inside.

Sometimes, You go back to the past because you Can’t Appreciate your Present
You are surrounded by great blessings. But sad to say, you fail to appreciate them because you keep on thinking about the things that you experienced. You can’t see the good things around you because you are still living in the past and keep trying to recall those moments when you still have everything you wanted. It’s time to move on.

So stop staying in a place that no longer exists. The reality lies in your…
