Courage

This morning my heart is bubbling with joy. I am overwhelmed by God’s love for me and my family especially in this year. I can testify over and over that God is real in my life and His promises are always true no matter how long they take. Psalms 139:14-16 says; I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, our eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.

We went to his grave with flowers and as I held them,I cried to God because I wished I didn't have to hold flowers in my hand and place them on my son's grave.I wished I held him in my arms and as his dad said given him the flowers instead. The tears flowed,our hearts were so broken. I didn't want to leave the grave.I wa

How to Turn Your Crisis into an Opportunity

How to Turn Your Crisis into an Opportunity By Dr. Charles Stanley Trust that God is working everything in your life for your good. “We know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose” ( Rom. 8:28 ). Believe that our heavenly Father is in control of everything. “The LORD has established His throne in the heavens, and His sovereignty rules over all” ( Ps. 103:19 ). Accept that the Lord’s ways are higher than ours. “‘My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways,’ declares the LORD. ‘For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts’” ( Isa. 55:8-9 ). Refuse to make quick judgments in the midst of a crisis. “Thus the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel, has said, ‘In repentance and rest you will be saved, in quietness and trust is your strength’” ( Isa.
