God forgives us daily. You can forgive too. Forgiveness simply means that your heart should be free from hate, bitterness, and anger.

(Ecclesiastes 4:10)- If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. A true friend is the one who is loving, who helps you find strength in God, who is loyal, concerned, helping, who is not after your wealth, Who will not corrupt your good morals, who will not seek to destroy you. Proverbs 12:26 We need to pray for having Godly friends because they bring spiritual accountability to our lives. They are a good example for non believers. A true friend will be there…
Sometimes we get caught up with all the negative aspects of a church, that we forget the whole purpose of going to church, Christ! So how do you know when you’ve found yourself a good church home? After visiting a church at least three times, ask yourself these questions: Is this church a place where I can connect with God and worship him freely? Consider what style of worship will allow you to most freely express adoration to God. Some churches have contemporary music, some have traditional. Some sing hymns, others sing choruses. Some have full bands, others have orchestras…
Your heart is one of the most treasured, precious commodities you have. Everything flows from it. Two scriptures serve as a reminder of this truth: Keep and guard your heart with all vigilance and above all that you guard, for out of it flow the springs of life. (Proverbs 4:23) For out of the fullness (the overflow, the superabundance) of the heart the mouth speaks. (Matthew 12:34) Your heart serves as your personal wellspring. It is supposed to be a continuous source of life for you. In essence the words you speak (out loud or in your head) are speaking…
What have you done today that will draw you closer to fulfilling your God implanted dream/vision/goal? Have you written a few pages of your manuscript, have you filled out that application for a new job, or to apply to college? Have you written out that business plan or did the research needed for that business you want to open? Did you put a little extra money aside to go towards the goal you want to fulfill? Did you take that class you’ve been wanting to take for so long? Or if you have already fulfilled that big dream, what are…
Forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead.~ Philippians 3:13 As this year comes to an end, I often stop and reminisce on all the blessings I’ve had. Not just this year, but in my lifetime. Sometimes we get so fixed on our current situation that we fail to praise God for all that He has already done. This year may not have been an easy one for you. You may have lost a lot of things in 2013. But if you’ll remain faithful, God will restore everything you’ve lost. You may have lost…
Sometimes we want something so bad that we never stop to ask God what He wants for us. We set our hopes on favors too small. Thinking that if we don’t ask for much, God will answer our prayer. I remember as a child, I would pray for something really big and then I would end my prayer by saying something like “Lord, if You can’t give me what I want, just give me what You can!” As an adult, I’ve learned that our God is not a second best God. He only gives His very best. No in between,…
God has moments of favor in your future. He is preparing you right now. Every struggle and trial is just preparing you for that moment! We all want success and happiness, but not many of us want to endure the trials and tribulations to achieve it. We often look at celebrities and wish we had their lifestyle, not knowing what they had to endure to get where they are today. Take these celebrities for example: Tyler Perry, actor-director-writer-producer; became homeless after moving from New Orleans, Louisiana to Atlanta, Georgia. He spent months living in cheap motels and his car. As a Christian,…
