Joy in the midst of trials
I picture myself waitingUnder the shadow of His graceI find myself restingEven in the midst of uncertainties I looked up in HeavenAnd imagine myself in thereMy eyes are closedWhile the tears are falling Unbearable painYet indescribable loveGoing through brokennessYet with a thankful heart Joy in the midst of trialsI thought it was impossiblePeace in the middle of the stormIt’s like a priceless treasure

Filled by Grace
Everything I haveAll the blessings I receivedI can’t boast about themBecause I never own a thing They are all borrowedAnd will only last for a momentThe things that I acquiredIt’s all because of God’s goodness So I choose to live each dayAs if I am so privilegedI learned to treasure everythingThat God has given It’s all by His graceAnd not about my strengthHe just loved me so muchAnd provided me with what I need I rest in the truthThat I can’t carry anything when I dieSo I’ll use what I have right nowTo glorify and magnify His name

Appreciate the People Around you even in the Simple Things that they Do
Don’t wait for something big and extravagant to happen before you learn to appreciate the people around you. Just be grateful for their presence because not everyone is given a chance to experience the kind of relationships that you have. Learn to thank your family for the love that they poured out for you, even in moments when you fail to see the goodness in their hearts. Choose to be grateful for your friends. You never really know how much they care for you. Treasure the blessings that God poured out for you, especially those who keep on supporting you along the journey. You may have some expectations inside, but…

Today is a Chance for you to Look at your life from a Better Perspective
God allowed you to live for today because He still wants you to see the blessings behind the circumstances that you are facing. You are surrounded with favor and opportunities. So stop focusing on the painful things that happened in your life. Your problems are there not to break your heart but to make you stronger. You can’t appreciate what you have not until you change the way you see things. How you deal with the situation around you depends on your perspective. If you think that you can’t make it, you will really find it hard to overcome the trials in your life. But if you believe that there…

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light. 1 peter 2:9, NIV God chose you to become part of His people.

Sometimes, you will never know other People’s Value until they Start to Leave
Learn to be present and try to appreciate the people around you. Remember that our time here on earth is limited, so make the most of what you have right now, and use them to bless and serve the people around you. Don’t wait for them to leave before you learn to treasure their existence in your life. Be grateful for their lives, they may not be perfect, but God allowed you to meet them for a greater purpose. And sometimes, you will realize that purpose when you learn to recognize their value in your life. You will never be who you are right now if not because of those…

Do your Best to Glorify the One Who Gave you the Talents and Skills
Always remember that the blessings that you receive from God are meant to glorify His name. He wants you to use them and bless more people. So do not keep what you have to yourself. Please share them with those who need to be reminded about who God is. Your loving Father already provided the resources that you need so that you will be able to maximize what He has given you. It’s just sometimes, we are too full of ourselves that we no longer consider His will. We focus on our own understanding, and we rely on our strengths. Look at the power of God, and do your best…

Remember that you are on a Journey
Our busy schedules and priorities in life will sometimes lead us to forget the things that matter most. When we are too occupied with our personal goals, we tend to forget that we are on a journey. Everything we have in this world is just temporary. It will change, and it will pass away. So whatever your struggles are right now, never forget that life is too short. One day, your journey here on earth will end. Do not dwell too much on your problems, and learn to cherish every moment you have. Keep the positive memories in your heart and let go of the pain you feel inside. Use…

Day 311 – 1 Timothy 6:7
For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. 1 Timothy 6:7, NIV Never rely your hope on things that will just last for a moment. Remember that no matter how wealthy you are in this world, you can never bring your money and properties with you. When we are born here on earth, we are not carrying anything. That’s why we can take nothing out of this world. Use what you have to gain treasures that will last forever. Nourish your faith and choose to love God with all your heart. Remember that your relationship with Him is what matters most in life…
