When I read this scripture, I'm reminded that I serve an awesome God who is in control of my life and I stand in awe of Him. He has equipped me with what I need this moment and asks that I exercise my faith in believing that with Him all things are possible. He is God Almighty!
Psalm 46:10

Soar on Wings as Eagles

Waiting upon the Lord is an act of faith which calls us not to be hasty in responding to situations in the flesh, but rather desire to walk in the spirit. There is a time and season for everything and if we act out of turn, we will reap the consequences. However, if we walk in faith and wait upon the Lord, we will be strengthened and rise up above the challenges and circumstances.
Isaiah 40:31

The Lord is My Rock

Psalm 18:2

This Psalm reminds me that Christ is my solid foundation. The Rock on which I have built my life on and that no matter what storms come my way, I will remain firmly planted in Him as I trust in Him.

I'm also reminded that in my life, I will be faced with challenges and trials, but that if I trust in the Lord, He will be my shield, my stronghold, my salvation and deliver me...like He always has!
Psalm 18:2

The Lord is My Light

Psalm 27:1

In Psalm 27, King David again exalts the Lord who is mighty to deliver and save. We go through darkness and storms in our lives and David was one who encountered these all throughout his life. He reminds us that if we continue to trust in the Lord, we don't need to fear because He will shine His light and show us the way.
Psalm 27:1

The Lord is My Shepherd

Psalm 23


23rd Psalm

Psalm 23 is my favourite Psalm as it summarizes what you can expect as you follow the Lord. King David, who was a Shepherd before he became King, compares himself as a sheep in the care of His Shepherd, Christ.

What I like about this Psalm is that it is clear that in life, we will be faced with hardship, trials and storms, but by trusting in the Lord and continually walking in faith, we can overcome all and have the victory.

Basically, it helps me look at challenges as opportunities, stumbling blocks as stepping stones!

The Love of God

1 Corinthians 13


Love
Love Art Print
Buy at AllPosters.com


1 Corinthians 13 is a powerful scripture that talks about supremacy of LOVE, not the worldly love, but unconditional love. The kind of love that makes one give their life for the other - the love of God. It shows how one can be giving and yet not loving because I could be giving out of selfish reasons.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. LOVE NEVER FAILS!

Faith, Hope and Love

1 Corinthians 13:13

Believe, All Things are Possible

Mark 9:23


Words to Live By: Believe

In Mark 9:23, Christ reminds us that by believing we exercise our faith which has already been given to us. In doing so, that is walking in faith, we can accomplish everything in life that we have to, according to God's will. Christ was an example as He walked the face of this earth and believed as He went about fulfilling His purpose, touching and transforming lives.

Give Thanks in Everything

Psalm 136:1


Give Thanks

Being thankful is so important as it helps renew the mind. To me, thankfulness is a high form of praise. I find being thankful, especially in times when one can't find the strength to be thankful, is ever more powerful. Thankfulness helps us remain positive as it takes our minds off the negative and helps us see things from a brighter perspective.
