My Everyday Life.

You are not the bad decisions you did in your past. You are not the same person you were. The good that God started in you, He will also finish. He is constantly changing your heart and He will use you for His glory every time you allow Him to. Praise Him, because He is good even when you aren’t. Sing to Him, because His love for you will never stop. Run to Him, because He is the only one who can save you from yourself.

It really frustrates me when you have a friend for years and they become toxic to you emotionally, mentally, etc. and others feel you’re “not allowed” to leave that friendship in the past because they’re “nice” or things aren’t easy for them. Like hell no. Why should I be constantly walked over and pushed to the side because I’m too loyal just to be the bigger person? You’re not worth me messing up my mental health over. Best friends can mean well and be nice but end up extremely toxic to you just as easily as anybody else.

Sometimes, God calls us to wait. Sometimes, the wait is long because He is pruning and teaching us to put absolute faith and trust in Him. He is faithful and He will bring those promises to pass.

You don’t need to have your life together to make a difference for someone else. Speak up. Be a friend. Even if you’re still working through junk in your own life.

God loves you right now, just the way you are. His love goes beyond your flaws. He sees the person who are, and He’s determined, if you’ll let Him, to be the one to stand beside you and help you make change for the better. Don’t wait until you’re a better person to reach out to Him. He wants to be in your life right now. 

There is hope. God has brought you this far. He wants you to have faith that He’ll bring you all the way.

There’s always going to be excuses. Always going to be convincing reasons not to take the chance. But you are meant to make a difference. Stop living passively and take some smart risks.

God’s way looks like foolishness to the world. Don’t let criticism stop you from obeying the Bible.

I’m proud of you for waking up each morning, even when it hurts, even when the weight of this life hits the moment your head leaves the pillow, you rise
