Motivation

My desire for better things in life is my motivation to pursue my dreams. Motivation is the willingness or the determination to take action. To be reminded of my dream encourages to move forward: "But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in God's unfailing love for ever and ever" (Psalm 52:8 NIV).

Challenges

Situations are there to change people. It is also to give a purpose every day. It is to accept it until the lesson is learned: "24 You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone" (James 2:24 NIV).

Prayer is the Answer

Asking God for answers through prayer. It is to put faith in God and to believe anything is possible with Him. It is a direct link to Him. "12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer" (Romans 12:12 NIV).

The Way

The light illuminates in the darkness. Today in this place is the light always within reach. In other words, peace is plausible. Walking in wisdom is the light. The LORD makes our way straight.
"29 Those who trust in themselves are fools, but those who walk in wisdom are kept safe" (Proverbs 28:26 NIV).

Fatih

The law is the Word of God. Faith is imparted in hearing the Bible because it gives life.  The truth is being read in order to free us from the bondage of sin. "24 So the law was our guardian until Christ came that we might be justified by faith 25 Now that this faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian" (Galatians 3:24-25 NIV).

Chasing After the Right Things

Our purpose was not to do solely what we wanted, but it is to believe in God's ways, which His ways are found in the Word of God. The Word of God is the bread from heaven. The Bread from heaven is eternal life. Believing in the Word of God gives eternal life; live forever.
(John 6:27 NIV) "Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal of approval"

The Power of Figivnesses

There has to be an end to not forgiving in people's heart by one person choosing to forgive and let it go. It is God who take care of vindicating people. God is a forgiving, so it is His character that we should follow. (Matthew 6: 14 NIV) "For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you"

One Step At A Time

The smaller strokes of paints gets to the bigger picture. It is the same with life. Every assignment requires to be followed step by step and to be carefully done.  All plans are to be God's will: (Exodus 35:10 NIV) "10 'All who are skilled among you are to come and make everything the LORD has commanded"

Bigger Things Found in Jesus Christ

Jesus Christ is worthy of our time. He is the reason we are here. It is His purpose that we must strive to do. Ask God for His purpose in all things including healing.
(Matthew 7:7 KJV) "⁷ Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:"

The Valley

Time is everything. It is the place where God should be sought and trusted. It is the ways of the LORD that leads to wisdom. (Proverbs 19:20 NIV "20 Listen to advice and accept discipline, and at the end you will be counted among the wise"

Character

Jesus means the LORD saves, and Christ is the anointed one. It is only putting hope and getting ideas from God that there is a deep peace. God's ways are always godly and should lead to happiness.

A Shift

Changes are only pleasant if they are godly. God will guide and restore people to His purpose. We are united to do His will. There is peace and rest in following God's ways: (1 John 1:7New International Version NIV)"⁷ But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all^[a] sin"

New Beginnings

God created the universe, and it was to be in His likeliness. He intended to bless all His creation. Everyone was meant to give Him glory.

(Psalms 65: 11 NIV) "¹¹ You crown the year with your bounty,and your carts overflow with abundance"

Strength

  God gives us strength when we are in our battles. It is to believe that there is peace and comfort during those times because God is refuge. God could give the fulfilled meaning that people are looking for.
(Psalm 46:1-3 NIV) "1God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. 2Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, 3though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging"

Healing

I surrendered to the Will of God, and He started to heal me. It is to trust in His will, plans, and character. God reveals the direction. (Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV)
^"5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
⁶ In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths"

Light

Not giving up and sticking until the end. This is where the light is. It is God's ways, which are not painful. (Matthew 5:14 KJV)  "15 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid"

TRUST

God will provide for those who seek Him. Putting Him first would mean to have faith about who is. It is to repent for His ways.
(Mark 1: 15 NIV) "15 'The time has come,' he said. 'The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!' "

Victory in View

No one knows the will of God completely. It is to seek God at all times and be able to know from there. It is to glorify Him in all that we do, and He will fight our battles for us.
(Jeremiah 15: 3 NIV) "'3 I will send four kinds of destroyers against them,' declares the LORD, 'the sword to kill and the dogs to drag away and the birds and the wild animals to devour and destroy"

Water

I have faith that God can give me water when there is drought. He gave water to the Israelites when they there were at need. God will deliver from all kind of afflictions. (Exodus 14:39-30 NIV) "²⁹ But the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with a wall of water on their right and on their left. ³⁰ That day the Lord saved Israel from the hands of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians lying dead on the shore"

Well

To be well is to first have a relationship with God. A relationship with God will show a way to live that would please Him and would make life better than if it were no be without Him. God is love, and God is blessings. (Isaiah 55:8 NIV) "8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the LORD"

Requesting

Asking God for bigger and better because nothing is impossible for God. God perform miracles, but I have faith that it takes time. God works in time, which I truly believe. (Matthew 19:26 NIV) "26 Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible"

Balance

When God is seek even in the little things, it changes life for the better. It is to know that God can comfort in the truth. The truth that God wanted to give all our hearts to Him. He gives us wisdom on how to live our lives to have a balance. A balance is to put God first and to trust Him in all areas of our lives. It is to trust that God can heal anything because nothing is impossible with Him.
(Ezekiel 3:10 NIV) "10 And he said to me, "Son of man, listen carefully and take to heart all the words I speak to you"

Change

All changes are well if it is according to God's will. Only God has the ability to change our thoughts and minds if we allow Him to. He gave us the truth through the Bible--the Words of God, and it is up to us to follow it. (2 Peter 3:9 NIV)"9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance"

The Fulfilled LIfe

I realized that my time here on Earth was to do God's will. It is whatever He wants me to do, so it is not about what I want. Doing the will of God is eternal life on Earth and the direction to heaven. The fulfilled life only comes from following God's directions. (Proverbs 16:8 NIV) "8 Better a little with righteous than much again with injustice"

Answers

All the answers is found from the Word of God. He gives hope to the hopeless. He also gives a second chance. (Isaiah 65:24 NIV) "24 Before they call I will answer; while they are still speaking I will hear"

Acceptance

God will never cast out but willing to accept when we come into a relationship with Him. A relationship with God can be restored. All things are right when it is God's ways.
( John 6:37 KJV) "37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out."

Living in the Moment

It is appreciating what I have right now and counting all my blessing is what makes me appreciate life. It is to know that God will provide for all needs because He is good. He gives opportunities to know the truth that appreciation comes from realize what He did to restore or make better.  (Proverbs 16:7 KJV) "⁷ When a man's ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him."

Wisdom

 Wisdom is not man made truths but learning the ways of God from the Bible. There is only one way. The truth comes from the Bible, which is the God's words.
(Proverbs 1:7 NIV) 7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Unconditoinal Love

God cares so much for those that received Him because He is faithful and righteous to them. It is good to know that God's promise to be faithful to us. God is waiting for us to come to Him.
(Zechariah 8:7-8) This is what the LORD Almighty says 'I will save my people from the countries of the east and the west. 8 I will bring them back to live in Jerusalem; they will be my people, and I will be faithful and righteous to them as their God"

Happiness

The only way to happiness is to follow God's ways. God's will is the answer to wanting to know what God's ways are. I believe happiness come when God is put in the center.(1 Peter 4:13 KJV) "13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy"

Blessings

  We receive because God was seek first. God provides for His children. He will never abandon us.
(John 15:5King James Version KJV) ^"5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing."

Hope

 God sent a prophet Zephaniah to give hope to His people in the seventh century B.C. Life is frustrating when God's ways are not followed because God wants what is better for us. So He would frustrate our ways if it is not according to His will, it is only when we humble ourselves to trust in Him that we prosper in our ways.

 (Zephaniah 3:17 KJV) "¹⁷ The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing."

Faith

Faith is believing God that He will provide, guide, and strengthen. God is always there, and He would never disappoint. God's ways are the substances of what we truly seek. ( Hebrews 11:1 KJV) "11 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."

The Heavens

What does it mean to fear the LORD?
It is to recognize that we live by principles by the Bible and not centered around something else. It is be strive to be the peacemaker. Just like God, God is the peacemaker, not the troublemaker.
(Psalm 33:11-14 NIV) "11 Come, my children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD. 12 Whoever of you loves life and desires to see many days, 13 Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from telling lies 14 Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and purse it"

New Season

It is a different timeframe. The setbacks, disappointments, and failures from the past can be forgiven.  It is to grow and be strengthen from the past. "33Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people he chose for his inheritance" (Psalm 33:12 NIV)

Patience

It was not our timetable that we are going on. It is God's timetable. God's plans are different from ours. We do not need to know why but trust in God. (Isaiah 30:18 NIV) "18 Yet the LORD longs to be gracious to you; therefore he will rise up to show you compassion. For the LORD is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for him!"
