God made you to be beautiful so don’t let what people say about you affect the way that you think about you. There is so much potential in you to reach so many people. Your actions are an influence on someone who will want to mirror what you do. If they see you feeding someone, or encouraging someone, or giving your testimony, the seed will be planted and they will want to do the same. So on this day go out and plant the seeds of hope and change and watch what God turn an empty field into a beautiful garden.
Good day to you all! I am praying that whatever is holding you back from getting to your dreams will be moved out of your way. Pray the same for yourself, and believe that God is moving on your behalf.
Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. Colossians 3:2
Your touch is wonderful
Your love is so marvelous
Joy, that's what I feel
When I'm with you-Keith Sweat “Make It Last Forever”
I have always been told that nothing lasts forever. I have always heard that all good things come to an end. I believed this for a long time, until I realized that there was an exception to the rule. I used to be of the belief that if I had something good, it was only going to be good for a little while. If I loved someone they would only love me for a little while. If I had a good feeling, according to what I was told, it would only be good for a short amount of time. I am so glad that I opened my Bible and I read in Hebrews 13:8 Jesus is the same yesterday and today and forever. When I read this I had an eye opening moment. I started to but the expression in context. I had to start saying it correctly. I changed that old saying to: All Good things that are man-made, will come to an end. Nothing that is of this earth lasts forever.
The Lord appeared to him from far away. I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you Jeremiah 31:3
Dear Reader I want to let you know on this day that God’s love lasts forever. God is the one good thing that lasts forever. As a matter of fact I dare you to say that trouble don’t last always. A Cadillac will look good for a season. A Mercedes will shine when it’s on the lot. You can get the clear coat paint, or the rust proof under coating, but Dear Reader those things will surely pass away. I want you to know that God is good all the time. I want you to know that your troubles will only be there for a little while. Your trials will only last for a little while. Your storm will only last for a little while, but Dear Reader you serve an everlasting, and ever loving God that is not going anywhere. I want you to hold on to the everlasting joy that only comes from Jesus. When you have the kind of joy that makes you smile on a rainy day, or makes you laugh in the face of the ones that curse you, then you start to sing like the brother Keith Sweat, and you say, “Lord, my God, Make it Last Forever. I could not do it without You!” Dear Reader eternal happiness is yours. You may not have the biggest house on the block, you might not live on the best block in the neighborhood. You may not drive a great big Cadillac, you may not have a car at all, just be grateful for what you got. And what you got is joy that no one can take. A Savior that no one can touch, and a love that no one can match. Put your trust in God today, and there is no need to worry about tomorrow, because you will have life everlasting, and the joy that you have, God will make it last forever.
You are beautiful, loved, and blessed
John Reed
