just walking…at my own pace…

Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it.

Yes, God. Let Your will be done.

As surely as the sun will rise, You’ll come to us. Certain as the dawn appears.

Thank you for this day God, not because today is more special, not because you have given me more today, not because my circumstance is better, but because you have given me another day to live for you, another day to enjoy your creation, another day to be thankful for all the things you have given me, another day to seek you, another day to walk with you, another day to be reminded that you worked to create everything for me to enjoy, another day to draw closer to you, and another day to be reminded of your presence.  Father, I thank you and thank you and thank you. You are so good and you have conquered all my struggles.  You are more than enough. You are all I need and Your promises never fail.  

Here is a trustworthy saying: If we died with him, we will also live with him; if we endure, we will also reign with him. If we disown him, he will also disown us; if we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot disown himself. (2 Timothy 2:11-13 NIV)

9 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 10 That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish srongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
Admitting to My weaknesses

Yes, God I am weak. 

Yes, God I am jealous. 

Yes, God, I worry about tomorrow. 

And Yes, God, I whine. 

But, oh Lord God, I thank you for your promises and your love because I know oh Lord that you will help me fight these weaknesses. 

For though I am weak, you are strong

though i am easily shaken you are not, 

and though I am so easily tempted, you are always there with me. 

God, help me to love you more everyday!

Jeremiah 29:11!!

Joshua 1:9!!

IN NEED OF SOME REMINDERS TODAY :)

16 Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 17 For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 18 So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
