Have faith

Believe what God says about you. He loves you. You are a new creature. There is not now, nor will there ever be any condemnation on you. Everything you have, He gave you. You are unique. You are His special creation, created on purpose for a purpose.

You may have made mistakes, but you are learning and growing. God has not completed His work in you and with you yet. 

There is much left to be done for His honor and glory. Step out and get started.

Open your heart

You have to lift your defenses now. Your inner critic, yourself, and the demons of hell do not want you to hope. They do not want you to believe. So lift the shield of faith and quench the fiery darts of the wicked. Bring your thoughts into captivity to Christ and Truth.

Open your Heart and trust again, even if you’ve been hurt. Don’t let the past, the enemy, or yourself continue to beat you up. Get up and get on with it. Press toward God’s purpose in your life.

Ask for help. Make new friends. Seek out new Opportunities and new experiences.

Pursue your dreams

Failure is not forever. The righteous man falls seven times and gets back up. Every day, take steps towards accomplishing God for your life. It is like working with Legos. You will do small incremental things each day that will eventually build into something.

Don’t let self-doubt get in the way of the dreams God has given you. Push yourself. Step out of your comfort zone. Seize the day, the opportunity. Be ready for whatever doors God might open. God put that fire in your heart, so go for it with all that is within you.

Embrace faith

Get away from all the doubters. Find the believers. Doubt breeds fear and failure. Faith leads to the future and blessings. Focus on what God has done and never forget it. Live in gratitude. Be content knowing that you are God’s Chosen to do something special. There is no one else like you. No one else can do what you are meant to do, so do it. Just do it.

Believe that God is working and will continue to do so. There is hope.

I try to start every day with a little three-step process in my quiet time: prayer, meditation, and Bible reading. I use these three words.

Steps to take each day

Truth is a truth clearly taught in the Bible about me and what God says about me.

Trust that I will trust God that it is true and do my best today to act on it.

Thanks to He who has given this truth and will help me live it today.

Why don’t you consider starting each day by reminding yourself of a truth? Tell God you will trust Him to make that truth real in your life and then thank Him for doing so.

Don’t give up. There is hope. Don’t give up. God still has plans for you. Your greatest days lie ahead.
