Imagine you’re about to be blessed with something really big. Envision that God actually told you He was going to grace you with it, and also describes it to you so you know what to expect and He promises to give it to you. Would you go check it out first? Would you see if it was ‘good enough’ for your own liking? Would you see if it was everything you had imagined it would be? Would you make sure God was accurate in His description?

I’m Just Grateful
Looking back on the memories bygone can be a piercing thing, but is necessary. In the reminiscing, you can see everything God has done and all the ways He has moved. Speaking of moving, I did that recently. With the help of my remarkable family and friends, I hauled all of my belongings into my first apartment a month ago.

Everyone wants to pray but no one wants to be the answer
“I’m praying for you.”
I would be quick to say that those four words are one of the most used sentences out of a Christian’s mouth. OF COURSE, that’s not a bad thing. We are supposed to pray for our brothers and sisters, and even people we don’t know. How many of us actually do it when we say it?
My pastor always asks questions like, “When’s the last time you wept for a brother and the situation they are going through? When’s the last time you wept for someone other than your family?”
Those questions really hit me every time he asks them because many a time, we can’t even remember the last time, which is not good at all.

Struggling with Self-Confidence?

WHAT TO PUT INSIDE OPEN WHEN LETTERS: Part 9
Everyone gets stressed. I do, and I’m sure you do as well. With that being said, your lovely significant other is also going to get super stressed at some point. Why not have a letter waiting for them to open. It can calm nerves, knowing they have a loving, supportive partner!
Making Time For God
I have so much to do
“You know I love you God but my teacher just offered me extra credit if I write a 3 page paper by tomorrow night and I really need it. Yes, I know I could have said no to working that extra shift tonight but God, I really need the money. You know, Valentine’s Day is coming up, I really wanna take my girlfriend/boyfriend to a good restaurant. I know I promised I’d spend time with you but I forgot to do my laundry the other day, I really need to do it right now.
I have to spend 2 hours minimum watching Netflix with my boyfriend/girlfriend. On suday mornings, I signed up to sing at church, be in the choir, and teach a Sunday school class for the children. I have to play guitar for about 1 hour in order to get better. I need to find time to sleep still, plus I have to use the bathroom every once in a while. God, I don’t think I have time for you today, but I promise, tomorrow, I will try to at least spend 5 minutes reading the Bible.”
