Can You Catch Excellence?

"We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us." Philippians 4:13 (NIV)

This quote of Vince Lombardi's has more meaning than most people realize. 

For you see God wants all of His children to obtain excellence. 

Paul talks about it in Philippians 4:8 which says, 

"Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things."

If we walk that path in life, we will excell at all God planned for us as long as He is in the center of our hearts. By doing these things we will obtain excellence in our lives in everything we do. Thereby showing that through Christ others too can obtain excellence.

God has a much better way for us to live our lives. We can have peace in the midst of chaos. This book will help us clean out and make room in your hearts and mindsto live a more excellent life. We don't have to wait til we get to heaven, He wants to help us right now to have a life of excellence. Hope is ours always. The secret is removing the things that block our road to excellence and walk with Him on our path. Choose today, excellence.

What Trials Will You Face Today?

Sometimes we think we just can't bear another thing, God however seems to know just what and how much we can bear, perhaps the secret is letting God help us bear each trial which keeps our focus on Him not the trial. Hence then we will be able to hear him when he tells us the path to walk.

Cardinal Manning went on to say, "If the trials of many years were gathered into one, they would overwhelm us; therefore, in pity to our little strength He sends first one and then another then removes both and lays the third, heavier perhaps than either; but all is so wisely measured to our strength that the bruised reed is never broken. We do not enough look at our trials in this continuous and successive view. Each one is sent to teach us something, and altogether they have a lesson which is beyond the power of any to teach alone."

Perhaps it would be good to pray and ask. . .Father in heaven, grant us this day the strength for the trials that come, the wisdom to focus on you and the trust to let you help us. Amen

Do you feel like you are facing life alone sometimes? That you can not bear another crisis?Do you wonder where your blessings are? Do you feel like giving up hope? Are you constantly fighting fear? Those answers and more are waiting for you. The Lord has the answers. You may find answers to other questions you have. Let God show you, H does have answers. Your faith will grow strong, and you will have the peace you are missing.

Whatever Storm May Come

 "The beloved of the Lord shall dwell in safety by Him; and the Lord shall cover him all the day long." Deuteronomy 33:12 

There are many storms in life and one of the lessons I think God would like for me to learn is to cast my cares upon Him. To remember that He is in ultimate control and because of that I am not to fear the storms that come my way.

To cast my cares of the rising storm I must trust in Him to protect me and see me through.

When in the midst of a storm I need to keep my focus on Him. I think a prayer for that situation would be:


Lord God, I know not what storms will come today, but I do know You care for me. Help me to remember that You are in control and will work things out for your glory and for my good and with protective hands will see me through.
Amen.

Unforgiveness or Peace?

 

Many times people hurt us with words and actions. Sometimes they realize it and other times they  don't. 

We have family and friends who may say or do things that hurt. Yet we are called by God to forgive them. Depending upon the situation it can be difficult to forgive, we as humans like to nurse our hurts awhile. But, this isn't hurting them, it is hurting us. 

Doctors tell us our anger stirs emotions that release all sorts of toxins in our body. Toxins we don't need. Some toxins can make us sick.

So when we do get our feelings hurt, just forgive them and move on through your day. Release them to God. Ask Him to heal your hurt and to help them to let go of their anger.

He knows how to reach their hearts. Let us turn to God to have peace in our hearts and stay healthy.

Lord, help me to forgive others and to release them from my unforgiveness. Amen
