Travis Greene - Made A Way (Official Music Video)

  This song is my anthem for this year as I encourage myself when I feel worried, defeated, empty, unprepared, trapped, anything...you name it. And eventually He comes through!! When I meditate on God's word over my life. And of course, pray that God changes areas in my life (mostly me) that may be causing me to be in a state of mind of being defeated, anxious etc,. He makes a way!!!!

IT'S TIME

How often do you say these two words? In most cases when I'm emotionally, physically, or spiritually tired I would say it's time and add the last bit of words that I know I need to make that change. Or when I'm scared of the next step in life, I tell myself it's time ..... then automatically my mind shifts and I start working on that!

We need to be able to encourage ourselves because outside encouragement may not always be available. You need to know your strengths, your value, your worth, your destiny and your purpose in life. Some things may not come into your life unless you tap into them. You have to be tired of where you are for you to move to the next step /position in your life. It's time to take my xyz serious. It's time to put more effort into this / that. It's time to let go of some things or relationships. IT'S TIME!!

Hey y'all,

Most of you were on a holiday break and tomorrow your work life will be back on...I believe we all need to read this for encouragement.

Be blessed.

You Won't Take Your Job to Heaven

You're not taking your job to heaven. You're not taking some gold watch or achievement award to heaven. You're taking YOU, so you want to build character because God is more interested in what you become rather than what you do.

Look again at today's verse because some people have a misunderstanding about temptation. They think that, once they become a Christian, they should be beyond temptation.

It's important to realize you will never outgrow temptation. In fact, the closer you are to God, the more you become an enemy of Satan, and the more he will try to tempt you. The good news is that God gives you greater strength to resist it.

When you are tempted at work - to be unkind, to get angry, to be prideful or greedy - remember that every temptation is not only an opportunity to do good but, it's also an opportunity to grow in character.

For example, when you encounter an annoying co-worker, the temptation may be for you to get upset with that person. But the Bible says to bless those who curse you and pray for those who offend you. So instead of getting mad, use it as an opportunity to praise God.

First, Satan will get annoyed that you're praising God. The more you praise God, the less Satan will use that as a temptation in your life. 

Second, you'll find yourself naturally growing in godly character as you apply God's Word to your life.

Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.
