God works in the silence 🤍

more than half the year has passed. still can’t believe we’re already into the second half of 2019. the end of july also signals the imminence of the uni semester. it’ll be a new start for me; i’m a tad excited yet slightly worried. anyway, i’ll be savouring these last few weeks, reading as much as i can! let every single moment be well spent :’)

As a Christian, how many times do you talk about your faith to others? . Matthew 4:19 New International Version (NIV) 19 “Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.” . Here Jesus said follow him and he will send us out to bring people to him and to know his heavenly father. . 🚨🚨CHALLENGE ALERT🚨🚨 Over this weekend go out and be the disciple you were created to be, talk about Jesus to a non believer, family, friends, co workers. Be brave and trust God. 👉🏻⬇️DM me or comment to let me know how you got on⬇️ . . . #fishersofmen #jesussaid #followhim #art #christianblogger #modernlettering #watercolor_art #illustrationnow #watercolor_daily #soulscript #communityofchristiancreatives #everydaywatercolor #artandfaith #femaleillustrators #godsgal #rootedintheword #watercolourinspiration #watercolourart #gracemakers #watercoloranchor #anchor https://www.instagram.com/p/B1OsZvYApNC/?igshid=49mum1j1qa6f

Yesterday, we talked about swapping our usual list of New Year’s resolutions for the simple, yet profound desire to be more like Jesus.⁣ ⁣ Of course, the big question is, “How do I do that?”⁣ ⁣ Because, let’s be honest, that’s a heck of a lofty goal. He’s way up there *gestures at sky* and we’re way down here *gestures at ground*.⁣ ⁣ But although he’s God, Jesus didn’t set an unattainable standard while he was on Earth. In fact, he was pretty practical in how he expressed his love for God and for other people.⁣ ⁣ Rather than stressing about how we’re not exactly like the Perfect Man, here are some everyday things we can do to better align ourselves with Jesus’ example.⁣ ⁣ ❤️ Get familiar with the Word by reading the Bible⁣ 🧡 Smile and say “hi” when you meet a stranger⁣ 💛 Keep snacks in your bag to give folks on the street⁣ 💚 Say “sorry” when you know you’re wrong⁣ 💙 Thank God for taking care of you before eating⁣ 💜 Add an extra 2% when you give (or start giving!)⁣ ⁣ See? Not scary or hard, right? We can do this.⁣ ⁣ 💬 What other things could you do to live, love, and look more like Jesus in 2020? ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #itwondersme#soulscripts#daughterofdelight#shereadstruth#womenintheword#propelwomen#gritandvirtue#christianblog#faithblog#christianwoman#christianliving#nothingisordinary#belovedlife#graceupongrace#chooselovely#dailydevotional#goodgod#gracemakers#wellwateredwomen#shewritestruth#scripture#gospel#newyearseve#resolutions#practical#jesusislord#infographic (at Hamilton, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6vY-R_lKe2/?igshid=ldi37c9rrpl7

Desperate for Him 🤍

His grace picks me back up

Are you down and don’t see any way out of your situation? We all go through similar conditions and in such moments, the verses of the following song comfort my soul like a sweet and holy embrace. I hope they will have the same effect in you. “God will make a way when there seems to be no way He works in ways we cannot see; He will make a way for me He will be my guide, hold me closely to His side With love and strength for each new day He will make a way…” Who can mend a sad, weary or broken heart better than God? #shewritestruth #butfirstjesus #gracemakers #livebygrace #faithjourney #seekgod #loveofgod #prayerispowerful #jesusislife #godfirstbro #biblicaltruth #fruitofthespirit #heavenlyfather #bibletime #biblegram #readyourbible #everythingchristian #christianposts #faithbased #faithandfandfashion #jesusapparel #faithblogger #godstiming #godismystrengh #prayerchangesthings #lovegodlovepeople #jesusitrustinyou #youversion #christianblog #topmercy https://www.instagram.com/p/B8pUnNZF3_z/?igshid=ooni45z6z77k

"We love, because He first loved us." 1 John 4:19. This short verse offers profound words. People do not wake up one day and decide to love (Romans 3:10). God is love, created love, and loved us first. John's summary of verses 17 and 18 also serves as a reminder. We are not to take credit for the love we have and show to others. God loved us, before we were capable of loving Him, and we can only love others because of what He has done in our lives. #shewritestruth #butfirstjesus #gracemakers #livebygrace #faithjourney #seekgod #loveofgod #prayerispowerful #jesusislife #godfirstbro #biblicaltruth #fruitofthespirit #heavenlyfather #bibletime #biblegram #readyourbible #everythingchristian #christianposts #faithbased #faithandfandfashion #jesusapparel #godstiming #godismystrengh #prayerchangesthings #lovegodlovepeople #topmercy #february14th #valentinesday2020 #monthoflove #loveseason https://www.instagram.com/p/B8jiYxplODh/?igshid=35evqssi8ms
