God Knows What He is Doing

Have you ever been in a trial and thought? "What is God doing?" Maybe you look at what is going on in this world and wander why God is allowing certain things to happen. Whatever we face in this life...Hold on...God Knows what he is doing 

This song came to my mind

"Hold on through the dark side,

Hold on though the week is too long,

My grace is a vision for thee.

He can take your life

And mold it into something new,

He took nothing,

and made something out of my life."

Fill your Mind with God's Word

We all go through storms in life. God has reason for each storm. I have been going through a little bit of a storm with some health struggles. I have learned some things in this storm.

1) Stay close to God

2) Trust in God

3) Fill your mind with God's Word

4) Find family/good friends who will encourage you. 

5)Keep going (You may have to rest but don't stop) 

Be a Cheerleader

Be a cheerleader for others. This does not mean that you encourage others when they are doing wrong. Instead encourage others to keep doing right. Lift people up. Pray for them. If they are going through a hard time, encourage them to stay focused on Jesus. Sometimes just a simple comment can go a long ways. So today take time to be a cheerleader for others. It can make a difference in someone else's life. 😀

Reminders from God

We all go through hard times in life. God has been sending me reminders. I love it when he sends me reminders. 😀 When you go through a hard time, depend on God. Run to Him and get close to Him. 

God is in control.

There are times when situations arise that are out of our control. We start to stress and wish we could change these situations. We need to remember that God is in control. He knows each situation that happens in life. When a situation arises, don't worry... pray to the One who has it all under control. 

Kindness

Thoughts from Ephesians 4 that  came up on my memories from last year. Ephesians 4. I was reading vs. 29. I thought on that verse for a couple of minutes. We need to use our words to edify others. Especially in the days we live in, we should be encouraging. Give words of life. 

Then in vs. 32 it starts out "Be ye kind one to another"  Show kindness in our world.

Keep Smiling

I have learned that no one wants to be around someone who is negative all the time. Life is not always easy but we can choose to have a good outlook on life. We never know how our smile may encourage someone else and brighten up their day. 

I won't be sharing every day on this blog but I will be sharing a few times each week so stay tuned for more encouragement
