There’s a belief that you’re supposed to be poor, and suffering, and show your humility. I just don’t see the Bible that way. I see that God came and Jesus died so that we might live an abundant life and be a blessing to others.
We have to remember, when we forgive we’re not doing it just for the other person, we’re doing it for our own good. When we hold on to unforgiveness and we live with grudges in our hearts, all we’re doing is building walls of separation.
When you smile and project an aura of warmth, kindness, and friendliness, you will attract warms, kindness, and friendliness. Happy people will be drawn to you.
Be glad, O people of Zion, rejoice in the Lord your God, for he has given you the autumn rains in righteousness. He sends you abundant showers, both autumn and spring rains, as before.
Hard times may have held you down, but they will not last forever. When all is said and done, you will be increased.
You need to get ready because I have explosive blessings coming your way.
Replace those thoughts of worry with thoughts of hope, faith, and victory.
Send your life to a whole new level! Zip up the negative words and start speaking faith and victory into your future.
I would rather believe for something great and receive half of it, than to believe for nothing and receive all of it!
I don’t have to figure out how God is going to solve my problem. I don’t have to understand how He’s going to bring it to pass. That’s His responsibility. My job is to simply believe that He will.
You only have so much emotional energy each day. Don’t fight battles that don’t matter.
To become a better you, you must be positive towards yourself, develop better relationships, embrace the place where you are.
Never let discouraging people and discouraging situations talk you out of your dream.
It’s always darkest before the dawn. The bigger your challenge, the closer you are to your victory.
Learn to trust His timing. Don’t get in a hurry; don’t grow impatient; don’t try to force doors open. Don’t try to make things happen in your own strength. Let God do it His way.
Smiling resets your mood.
He is still in control. He still has you in the palm of His hand.
I try to live what I teach. A lot of things come against us in life, but we should try to find something to be grateful for, and see each day as a gift.
I think a big test we all face in life on a regular basis is that discouragement test. Life’s not always fair, but I believe if you keep doing the right thing, God will get you to where you are.
Selfishness is weakness. But loving and caring for others is a position of power beyond anything we can possibly imagine.
