LIVE TRUE TO WHO YOU REALLY ARE THROUGH CHRIST JESUS~
To live true to your authentic self, you must continually choose to focus on your prospective future as opposed to current position. Your present self is but the bud of the full flower you are destined to become-but it's up to you to decide whether or not you will bloom!

God Bless You All

LIFE IS A BEAUTIFUL JOURNEY! 🌍🌎🌏
God would not just give us what we want; He will make us desire what He wants - give us his desires - so that following Him is that much more joyful and fulfilling. To put it simply, the more you hang out with God, the more He rubs off on you - and the more He rub off on how you do your work, how you relate to your family members and friends, and how you make your decisions. Spend enough time with Him, and suddenly your desires start to look a lot like His.

CHRISTIANS HAVE FUN TOO! :)

TO MY CHRISTIANS ~ HOW STRONG IS YOUR FAITH?
If you have ever wondered why you sometimes don’t receive what you need or desire from the Lord, think and pray about this point: We each have the ability to ask God to do anything, but sometimes our faith is not ready to receive what we ask for. The truth is that sometimes we just don’t have the strength in our faith to receive it yet—we aren’t convinced that God is able to do “this” for us. Oh, we know He can do it. But the thing we are asking Him for seems so big, so hard-to-do, or so impossible that our mind fills with doubt and worry. The eyes of our heart move from Jesus to the problem, and land squarely on the problem.

TO MY FAITHFUL CHRISTIANS:
John 15:5 lets us know that, without God, you can do nothing that is really important or valuable. Some things may seem to be of importance, but in the long run, they're not. Without Jesus involved in your life, your life is just filled with a bunch of occurrences that fall into the "nothing" category. That may seem harsh, but it's the truth. No matter how hard you try to conduct your life by your OWN WILL, it will never workout your way because GOD has to be in it, so it can be HIS WILL!

Thank God for Jesus!
I love you all... — reading Book of St. John chapter 15 and feeling Blessed!

TO ALL MY BOTHERS & SISTERS IN CHRIST:
Life is about dreaming, doing, and enjoying yourself in the process. Sometimes it might seem as if your dreams are just too wildly improbable, or there are too many obstacles standing in your way, or you've missed your window of opportunity. But if those dreams are divinely inspired, hope is far from lost. You just need to know how to visualize the path to your dream to make it a reality.

Thank God for Jesus!
I love you all...

ARE YOU PREPARING?
This world is going to be destroyed after the second coming of Christ Jesus. So please, if you have anything in your life that is holding you back from giving your all for Jesus, then let it go today. Today is the day to give your heart fully to Christ. Don't let the cares of this world spoil your relationship with Him and ultimately your salvation. Let go of this world and give your all to Jesus and focus your mind on His heavenly kingdom. We need to be a holy people for God, to be able to stand before Jesus when He returns. Otherwise we will be consumed by His glory. There's no time to waste, please get ready today!

Thank God for Jesus!
I love you all...
GET READY & BE READY!

TO MY CHRISTIANS:
The devil isn’t powerful, he’s just deceitful. Because he's existed a lot longer than you, before the creation of this world in fact, he understands basic human nature and he will use that knowledge to his advantage.
What can you do about that? First, you stop giving him credit and then, start concentrating on building up your own godly character. If you don’t strengthen what you have inside, you’re not going to be able to fight off anything hitting you from outside. It’s time to take care of you, so that you can use the Word with authority and put the devil in his place––under your blood-bought feet.

Thank God for Jesus!
I love you all...

Psalm 103:2-4
Praise the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits-- who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion

The Narrow Gate

Luke 13:22-30
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
