Dear Friends,


I wish to share some things which really blessed me while I struggled with whatever I was struggling with everyday.
I pray this encourages you.



Satan is the greatest deceiver, so don't be deceived by the lies that you cannot get through something.

God is greater and capable of anything.

Sometimes we need to let go of things that can be used by the Enemy to defeat us. After all, in battle, our weakest points are always attacked.

Life is a precious gift from God. Jesus came that you would have eternal life. You are more than conquerors in Him. So don't let these upsets and "defeats" in life defeat you completely.

Get up. Pick yourself up.

Put on the armour of God and go into battle.

Don't get worried, don't get anxious.

Be Strong. Be Courageous. Be Brave.

God loves you.


Here is something -



* Satan comes to kill, steal and destroy your lives. When you give in, when you are depressed, when you suffer, he gains victory.
But Jesus came so that you would have life in abundance. (John 10:10)


*Life is a gift. Love is the most treasured wealth and you are indeed rich , when you are loved!

*Jesus paid a heavy price for you, on the cross, and by his death on that cross, you have been redeemed - and made sons and daughters of the Most High God.


*In Christ we have a hope and an inheritance (Ephesians 1:18)
Even while we were dead in our sins, He made us alive.


*He raised us up together and made us sit in heavenly places in Christ, not just in this age but in ages to come that He might show the exceeding richness of His grace.


*Jesus gives us peace, He is the Prince of Peace.


*His name is above all names, far above all principalities and power, might and dominion and every name that is named. All things are under His feet (Ephesians 1:22)

*He created you and His grace is sufficient. He is a High Priest who knows what you are going through

*And He who is in you is greater than He who is in this world. Nothing in this world can overcome you, because if God is with you, who can be against you?

* You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you.

​Your welcome, Rachel! And thank you for the rep comment! I appreciate it. Keep smiling, my beautiful sister! :)
 
You forgot one thing in that list. Remember to stop and smell the daffodils.

What? Yeah, I know it's supposed to be roses. But daffodils look a lot happier. :D

It's human nature to focus on the bad things in life - what we lack, what we think we need, what we want, the things that irritate or harm us - but there is so much more good than bad, and SOOOOO many things to enjoy in life! Sure there are a few bad things. God made a perfect world but sin damaged it a bit. But there's still a lot of the artist's brush strokes to admire.

Like peaches, pears, chocolate, a good fiddle playing, a baby laughing, hugging a dog, going to sleep with a cat purring on my stomach, a large watermelon, banana shakes (with Blue Bell ice cream, by preference,) listening to the Hinsons singing, salt and vinegar potato chips, a bowl of homemade chili with sharp cheddar cheese, bananas, Calvin & Hobbes comics, sunsets, sunrises, a cool breeze, sharing a joke with a friend...

Sorry, got sidetracked there. :D
