Don't Let Social Media Change You.

 "Don't be concerned about the outward beauty of fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes." 1 Peter 3:3

Today we all have social media of some sort I assume, but we have to stop letting social media show us what we think we are supposed to look like. When we compare ourselves to others, it changes the outlook we have on ourselves, it brings us down. God didn't create each of us to look alike for a reason, He knew how we would look before we were born. The bible tells us He created us in His imagine alike, next time you think to compare yourself to someone think before you do. You have no idea what they deal with, how their heart truly is, or what they are like when they're alone. Just because you think someone looks better than you doesn't mean their attitude is. We have to focus on the beauty inside of us, we have to stop letting society tell us who and what we are supposed to be. We are free in Christ to be all He has called us to be. We are made different than everyone, we all have different attitudes, different views on things, we even have different callings. We are all made for a special purpose in Christ. So don't be so hard on yourself, focus on the inner beauty. You are beautiful in your own way. Don't let social media change anything about you. Focus on Jesus and His plan for your life. Here are some verses to reflect on today. "You should clothe yourselves instead with the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quite spirit, which is so precious to God." 1 Peter 3:4 "So God created human beings in his own image in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them." Genesis 1:27 "Then God said, "Let us make human beings in our imagine, to be like us. They will reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, the livestock, all the wild animals on the earth, and the small animals that scurry along the ground." Genesis 1:26 "The humble will see their God at work and be glad. Let all who seek God's help be encouraged." Psalms 69:32

Happiness That Will Never Fulfill.

“Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭37:4‬ ‭ Happiness is something we are all searching for in life, it's something that we each want to feel. I have come to realize if I want to feel happiness it begins with finding God. I will never be happy in this world when I don't have God in my life. Although people think they might be happy on earth now, there will come a time for eternity and if their lives are full of sin then happiness will never last. Believing that this world can satisfy your soul is only lying to yourselves. You have to find a true meaningful relationship with God and work on it everyday, you aren't called to be perfect but you have to make an effort. God knows your heart, and if you're trying He sees that. Today, spend time truly seeking God for the happiness you're searching for. This earth cannot fill your soul. Here are some verses to reflect on today. “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken sp...

Wait Patiently!

“Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord.” Psalms‬ ‭27:14‬ ‭ If God is making you wait, then wait patiently. Nothing in the waiting is a waste. I remember a time in my life where I was praying for something, I waited years and seem to receive no answer. I waited and waited. Somedays I was impatient and cried all day, other days I waited with patience of steel and praised God for what I knew I would someday receive. Sometimes the waiting is easy, other times it is an uphill battle. Whenever we are waiting we will go through different seasons, but we can count on the fact that God is at work for us. The waiting is important and a lesson is somewhere in the midst. Today, whatever it is God is having you wait for know that the season of waiting is often a time you look back on as a blessing. Even if it doesn't feel like a blessing now someday you will see how close the waiting brought you to God. When we are waiting we often spend more tim...

Don't Forget God!

“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.” Philippians‬ ‭4:6‬ ‭ Don't forget God when you receive what you are praying for. God knows the things that we want the most, and often times He does give us what we want. When God does give us the things we want we have to stop and give thanks. It's like this, if you give someone a gift that you know they have really been wanting, something they will absolutely love, and they don't even say thank you it would hurt your feelings. It would make you feel like they don't appreciate you. If someone asked how they got the gift and they said they got it for themselves it would make you hurt also. When God gives us what we are praying for we need to shout from the rooftops that God done it for us, that He made a way. We need to thank God, telling everyone about it. We should be excited to tell others about God and all the wonderful things He does for us. Toda...
