I'm Back

After going through so much junk and weeding out my problems God has restored me and the Holy Spirit is dwelling in my Spirit! I love Jesus so much and he is my real one and only true love, nothing can take that away from you. I have burned my idols and just returned from an amazing youth retreat. I have had so many problems and burdens and now I'm back and it feels so good and so refreshing. I have given everything to God. Some of the hurt is still there but by God's grace and time I will heal completely. God is giving me strength. I just want to encourage everyone to rely on Jesus and if your not feeling well, or going through struggles to pray constantly throughout the day and sing praises to Him. God does love us because we are all His children and by His grace we are forgiven for the mistakes we made and we can climb out of the pit we've made for ourselves.

Psalm 46:10

"Be still, and know that I am God;

I will be exalted among the nations,

I will be exalted in the earth."

Micah 6:8

He has showed you, O man, what is 

good. 

And what does the Lord require of you?

To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly 

with your God.

Psalm 119:60

"I will hasten and not delay to obey your commands." 

Contentment

Contentment is living your life through the fullness of God.

        We live in a world of comparison. We always compare up rather than comparing down. It could be something you don't have, like a brand new sports clothes or it could be brand name clothing. We think that if we have more then we will be content. You need to ask yourself when is enough enough? It is okay for us to praise and admire those who have more but, we can not get to the point that we covet what they have, like their job positions or their belongings. Luke 3:14 (all about being content with your salary). 

What brings contentment?

       God brings contentment! God is infinite and will always be enough. We need to put the fullness of our life into His hands. Give Him all you struggle with, ask Him to fill you up with joy, love, and contentment. When we do this we won't worry. How can you enjoy what you have and be content when you constantly worry about all your material things you own?? We can not worry about what will happen. We have to make the choice to put our choice in God. That choice is our choice alone, no one else can make it for you. Focus on what you have in Him. Contentment comes in Christ. Make the choice. 

Philippians 4:4

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!

Daily Bible Verse

1 Corinthians 13: 4-7 

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
