Psalm 39:7 And now, Lord, what wait I for? My hope is in thee. What are you hoping for? Hope is a most powerful word to inspire and motivate. Some meanings of hope that I have seen are very encouraging such as: Hope-Have Only Positive Expectations. Hope-Hold On Pain Ends. Hope-Hold Onto Prayer Everyday. These positive words of hope when things aren’t going right, when life deals some painful blows, when tragedy strikes can help shift our focus. Sometimes life does not go as planned, there are some unexpected we may encounter that may have us wanting to give up or just feel hopeless. Let’s deal with reality, challenges and difficulties are part of life and who doesn’t go through failures, setbacks and challenges. The blessed side is how we respond and react to them. My encouragement is to those who feel like they are at the end of their ropes and for those who feel like they have been forgotten and those who have come face to face with still another failure, i...

Never give up on God because He want give up on us. When you love someone you don't want to give up on them and that is how God is with us, He loves us so much that He will never give us up. God's love is real. There is hope in Him; He sent his Son as a sacrifice for us. He is the only one that will understand us better than any human being on this planet. Even when you are feeling a sense of doubt, fear and hopelessness God is with you, as Amy Grant worship God from her heart through Her song  "Never Give You Up" let us come into His presence as we worship God in our hearts that not in a million years I will never give You up. Scripture: Hebrew 13:5..."I will never leave you nor forsake you."

In the society we live in today we accumulate and buy things that are valuable and not so valuable. We are a consumer culture; we buy to fulfill our basic and not so basic needs to survive. As we progress in our life we tend to make changes throughout our earthly journey. Let us reflect on changes that brings growth to us personally and spiritually. Our best model of progressing toward spiritual growth is becoming more like Jesus Christ. Paul urges us to follow the example of Christ in I Peter 2:21"For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow his steps." And when we commit to following Christ our loyalty to the things of the world would be less casual. Loyalty, what is it-loyalty is valuable and it is a very rare quality found these days. Being loyal demonstrates our commitment to Christ. How would you define your loyalty to Christ? No better example of loyalty would be expressed is found in the I Chron...

Psalm 46:10 Be Still And Know That I Am God. I heard your cry and I know your name. I have not forgotten about you. I am coming to see about you. I will be exalted in the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.  Nothing is too hard for me. Trust me, I have a plan and I am working it out. You are my child, I made you, I carried you, I will sustain you and I will rescue you. Be still and know that I am God. For I Love You. 

This is an incredible song, one that will take you to the feet of Jesus.  "Until the day Jesus came to me and healed my soul with the wonder of His touch."  I pray this song ministers to you as you break open your box and give praise and glory to God in adoration, allowing the fragrance of your oil to be released through your worship. Be an alabaster worshiper, pure worship. "I beseech you therefore, brethen by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service." Romans 12:1 KJV

Blessed is the man who finds out which way God is moving and then gets going in the same direction. –Anonymous.  Even though we are in the 8th month of August or where ever we may be in life, it does not matter, what really matters is that Now is the time. It is time to step out and move from where we are in life to where God wants us to be. And in order to do that we have to get moving. We can’t get there if we don’t get started, if we plan to fail to start; we fail to plan to start. The Oxford Thesaurus explains “start” as to begin, to commence, to establish.….it is getting up and getting out of the box, getting out of the boat and getting out of that comfortable place. You may feel like you in a holding pattern, like all progress seems to have stopped----as though things have become habit forming and complacency. You may be thinking you are out of place with God.  God can work right where we are and will help us get moving even if we don’t know where...
