Jesus Pep Talk

What seems to us as bitter trials are often blessings in disguise.

 

Romans 12:12

Rejoice in hope, patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. 

Cutting people out of my life doesn't mean I hate them. it means I respect myself.


Philippians 2:3
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves,

I didn't change. I just see things differently now.

Acts 20:24
But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.

If you are going to rise you might as well shine

I have endured, I have been broken, I have known hardship, I have lost myself. But here I stand, still moving forward, growing stronger each day.


1 Peter 5:8-9
Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world.

The road I have traveled has not always been an easy one and the path was often full of stones, but I am still here. I know that the only reason I was able to make it this far, the only reason I am still here today, is the fact that God was walking the road with me every step of the way.
