Don’t allow your wounds to turn you into a person you are not.

Consider what God may be trying to teach you...

When you feel isolated and lonely, consider that God may be trying to teach you that we can trust He will never truly leave us alone.

“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.” (Deuteronomy 31:6)

When you feel heartbroken, consider that God may be trying to teach you what it means to fully rely on His strength and perfect will.

“But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” (2 Corinthians 12:9)

When you feel like your future is going nowhere, consider that God may be growing you for the next season of your life in which you would never experience without the growth process first.

“Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.” (John 15:2)

When you feel hopeless, consider that God may be trying to show you He gives us eternal hope, which outweighs the temporary hope this world offers us.

“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33)

The point is, God can teach us in every situation of our lives… we need only to be open to learning what that is.

Consider what He may be trying to teach you now!

Remember your experiences with God. Write them down. Ponder them often. Treasure them in your heart. Trace His hand of faithfulness in your life. And make knowing and experiencing God more and more the highest goal of your faith journey.

God has never used a perfect person.

With the exception of His Son, of course, God has never used a perfect person to carry out His good will for this world. I think a lot of us tend to imagine God only picking out the most morally steadfast people; the people He decides have been able to reach His standard of ideal righteousness. But when you flip through the pages of the bible, you actually find quite the opposite. 

Our God’s got a thing for the underdogs. He takes the weak, the outcast, the lost, the confused, the poor, the sick, the lonely, and the depressed, and He uses them to bring great glory to His name. He calls the liar, the cheater, the adulterer, the thief, the prostitute, and the murderer not to condemnation or to ridicule, but to sit across from him at the table and eat. He washes them white with His own blood, and remembers their sins no more.

God isn’t looking for spotless records or thoroughly upstanding character. He’s just looking for willing hearts.

God has never used a perfect person.

Just ordinary people like you and I; not fearless, not unbroken, and certainly not without fault,

but, in His eyes, still worthy of being loved.

Attention! Prayers needed ASAP! #PrayforKenia

Hello, everyone it’s been a while since I’ve talked to you guys, but I’m making my come back slowly since I’m on vacation from school. My very close friend that I call my sister and “college mom” has been emitted to the ER twice over this past weekend. (Friday night, went back home yesterday- Saturday, and went back in today-Sunday). Her name is Kenia (Kenya). She’s been in serious pain. She has cancer. She has cysts in her stomach that have been giving her major pain. She hasn’t eaten in 3 days and has had liquids only. Plus, on top of that she can’t keep anything down in her stomach. She’s even too weak to text me back, so I’m doing my best keep in touch with her boyfriend. I’m lost in trying to help her, besides giving her words of comfort from the bible and praying for her. I’m coming to you guys for prayer for my sister, Kenia. Please pray for Kenia and ask your family and friends to do the same. Love you guys and stay faithful and blessed. Thank you. Don’t forget, #PrayforKenia
