We all have a void in our hearts that nothing in this whole wide world can fill, but the Maker and Sustainer of our hearts, God. • You would look at both Kate and Anthony and observe how much they had going for themselves. They were known and loved by many. Had reached the height of both of their careers. And neither of those things gave them any hope at all. • I’m not someone who is against medical treatment for depression or for any other kind of mental illness. Yet, I believe the root of their early demise was that they lacked hope. And I know that Christ is a true and sure anchor. He has kept my fluttering soul afloat, many times. • If you are having suicidal thoughts please get help! There is still hope for you to go on. But it’s not within yourself or your circumstances. It’s all within Christ. He’s not only a Savior, He’s a true friend indeed. All who seek Him do not seek Him in vain. Be encouraged . ♥️

Discouragement is a tool of the Devil. If our Savior and the Author and Finisher of our faith tells us to take heart or to be of good cheer, why do we believe Satan’s lies that say there is no hope? Why is it that those who have been born to a living hope can be so easily convinced that there is no hope? No hope in their marriage. No hope in God continuing the good work that He begun (Phil. 1:6)? Why does quitting look like a viable option? Why does running from our amazing Benefactor make any sense at all? • Believe me, I am preaching to myself as well. Recently, the Adversary whispered in my hearing a few lies that I believed. I didn’t hold the lies up to God’s word. I didn’t wrestle to believe in God’s truth. I took Satan’s lies as the gospel and never doubted that they were not the truth. • None of us are walking through a flowery field we are in the battle for our lives. Not for our salvation, Christ has already finished His works’. But we are in the fight of our lives against sin and darkness. We are in the fight of our lives for our satisfaction in Christ. Not only on the outside is their warfare going on, but also on the inside. Our flesh opposes what the Spirit desires and the Spirit opposes the desires of the flesh (Gal. 5:17). • I know just how the idea of warfare can in itself seem discouraging. But Christ has won the victory. The God of peace will soon crush Satan under all of the saints’ feet (Rom. 16:20). • Don’t stop following Christ. Don’t give into those passions of the flesh which wage war against your soul (1 Peter 2:11). Don’t quit being faithful to whatever God has called you to. Don’t give up on your ministry. Don’t walk out on your marriage. • God is able to do far more abundantly. than all we think or ask (Eph. 3:20). Don’t forget about God’s great and precious promises (2 Pet 1:4). Don’t forget about the crown(s) while you bear the cross. Don’t miss out on what God purposes to do through and in your life. And, lastly don’t be too proud to ask God for help. Hasn’t He drawn you from every pit you have fallen into? • Be encouraged saints, Christ has won it all.

“𝙷𝚘𝚠 𝙳𝚘 𝚈𝚘𝚞 𝚁𝚎𝚜𝚙𝚘𝚗𝚍 𝚃𝚘 𝚃𝚛𝚒𝚊𝚕𝚜?” •link in my bio• I’ve written a few words about my own responses to trials, and how Job responded to suffering. • In my daydreams I don’t want trials to shake the foundations of what I believe about God. But when it comes down to trials or suffering what really matters is that you cling to God. • I think what God is most importantly teaching me is that it’s okay to wrestle and struggle with faith. And that my faith isn’t puny but rather He is teaching me how to fight, rather than cowering (which is my default). • This post wasn’t written to rebuke anyone or to make light of your sorrows. But to point you back to our one true hope in this life. I wanted to remind us all that God cares about us. Don’t think for a second that God is unmoved by your tears. God isn’t a God who rejoices when we are lamenting. He is a God who sees, hears, knows and is coming down to save us (Ex. 3:7-8). • Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. (James 5:13A) Prayer is the only right response to trials. Look to Him and your face will be radiant and you will never be put to shame (Ps. 34:5). Take heart God will hold you tighter still. ♥️

I cut my hair again and I love it even more now. Is that weird? 🤷🏾‍♀️ #naturalhair

I pulled this quote from a blog post written by @awovenlife called, “The Seed of Discontentment”. • In the Life Application Study Bible there is a feature where they profile people in the Bible. They include a small list of weaknesses and mistakes they’ve made. On Eve’s profile the first thing that is listed is that she allowed Her contentment to be undermined by Satan. Eve was perfectly content (and why shouldn’t she have been, she was in Paradise) before she allowed Satan to direct her eyes to the one tree she could not eat of. • Satan still depends on the same ol’ bag a tricks he used on our first parents. If we will allow him, he will turn our eyes to the one thing we seem to “lack”. And before no time we will be doubting the goodness of God. • But He is good and far more gracious to us than we could ever deserve. Just as Satan slyly directed Eve’s eyes from a whole bountiful garden to focus on just one single tree. He aims to shift our focus from every blessing and mercy to something we “lack”. • Whatever life God has assigned to you (1 Corinthians 7:17) is enough. Period. • Cling to God and don’t let go. ♥️

I received my #givemejesusjournal today and couldn’t be more excited!!! Be sure to check out my IG stories for a look through this journal. It is so well-designed and lovely to look at. It can definitely be helpful in our journey to abide in God’s Word. • 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Well done to @wellwateredwomen @wellwateredco (go to their profiles to see far more prettier pictures of this journal) and every person that serves at this most needful ministry. Thank you for your hard work and persistence (of course by God’s grace). May this ministry continue to encourage others to cling to God’s word. ♥️
