Remembering...

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. – Eleanor Roosevelt

Though the Pharisee tried to snub him at prayer time, the publican held his peace. Only one of them went home blessed and it wasn’t the Pharisee. Hmm!

The slogan of the United Negro College Fund is “A mind is a terrible thing to waste.” Very powerful, and very true. It’s no secret that the enemy we face day in and day out is trying to sway our mind or way of thinking. Two of his major weapons are doubt and discouragement, for they create the illusion in our mind that we are not worthy or we can never measure up. But the completed work of God through Jesus Christ has made us ‘worthy’ in all things. So no matter our outward circumstances we “are more than conquerors” in any situation we face. As the day unfolds and the assaults come remember the God you serve.

Until tomorrow…

Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free…..” – Romans 8:1-2

"Scary" Love

Do one thing every day that scares you. - Eleanor Roosevelt

Esther's fear of approaching the king was overridden by her fear of losing her people. Hmm!

The truth is, all human hearts are yearning for something more. Why, because God put the yearning there. We look to fill it by striving for a better job, more money, dream relationships, and more stuff because we are empty on our own. This goes for everyone! We are meant for Heaven, and we’ll never find completeness in this world and its offerings. We can taste satisfaction, happiness, enjoyment - for a minute - but the THINGS that bring them are temporal. The completeness and joy we seek cannot be found in things, but in relationship, and that ONLY with Christ at the center. In Him we can find a perfect love that fills our yearning hearts and takes our satisfactions, happiness, and enjoyments to an even higher plane. It is good to seek, but only if you know what you're truly seeking after.

Until tomorrow...
