| Seasons | I have recently just come to a point of truly accepting that sometimes God works through seasons, and that even through seasons, He works all things out for good. Whether it be friendships, jobs, sports, group gatherings. Sometimes God only calls us to a certain area for a season. // It may be that we are holding on so tightly to something we are comfortable with, something that we’re used to doing in routine, that we are missing God’s next step for us. // Maybe what we are holding on to is average, when God wants to bless us with something extraordinary. We just have to let go, so that our hands and hearts are open. This does not mean material things necessarily. Maybe the place we are in now is causing us to be distracted from God’s goodness, and the new place that God is calling us will allow us to experience God’s presence like never before. If we are continuing to knock on a door that won’t open, maybe we should ask ourselves if that is the next opportunity that God has for us. Don’t be discouraged because of closed doors. Rejoice in God’s protection, because you have no idea what kind of danger you are being protected from. The lost friendship, the lost job, change in career, whatever your change in plans may be. This I can promise you, // God has you. // I have stopped saying “I hate change.” God has taught me to say “I rejoice in change.” I rejoice in new beginnings. I rejoice in new places. I rejoice in new friendships. Wherever God has called me, there I will go. I will not look back, only forward to what is ahead.

| Peace, Be Still | I used to cringe when I heard the phrase “Be Still.” I am naturally a problem solver. I love to put into action whatever needs to be done. I would always see others post the verse from Psalm 46:10, “Be still and know that I am God...” Truthfully, I would think to myself, “that is so difficult for me. God is asking me to do nothing, while I wait on Him to do something.” I believe that there are different seasons in our lives. Sometimes God really does call us not to act. But sometimes it isn’t that God is telling us not to do anything physically. I At all times God wants us to be at peace in our hearts with Him. God wants us to “be still” in our hearts as we trust Him. As one of my dear friends said the other day, “God wants us to have an inner peace.” I no longer cringe at the phrase “Be Still.” I rejoice! I now realize that God isn’t trying to limit my actions. God wants to give me (and you) more than we could ever imagine, and // sometimes the only way God can speak to us clearly is when we are quiet in our hearts. // Let’s be still before God today: taking time to pray effectively (casting our cares before God, and LISTENING to Him), studying His Word and being filled with His peace, trusting that God is who He says He is, and trusting that God will do what He said He will do. I am not sure what area of your life God is calling you to “be still” in. It may that God is calling you to continue working hard physically, yet inwardly trusting in Him, that He will reward your hard work with spiritual blessings. Be still before God today. He has something incredible to say to you.

I am not sure what the worry of your heart is today. Maybe it’s anxiety, fear, doubt. Whatever it is, know that God is in control. Surrender to Him what you’ve been holding on to so tightly. He gives us a choice to trust Him. He gives us a choice to live in freedom over the bondage of fear. God’s got this today, and every day.

Know your worth and don’t settle for anything less: not in negative thoughts towards yourself, not in your friendships, not in your relationships, not in a job, not in school, not in anything. // Excellence does not mean an accumulation of material things, but a determination in your heart to acknowledge your worth in Jesus. // Decide that you will have experience the peace, confidence, and abundance that Jesus died for you to have in Him, that you will eliminate anything that does not reflect the love of Jesus in your life.
