Luke Chapter 6, Verse 28 (New Living Translation)

"Bless those who curse you. Pray for those who hurt you."

It is always difficult to feel any good especially after those who have hurted you, recently or in your past. I would know. I am learning every day.

Easily forgiving others like Jesus had done is no easy task. But the good news is that God knows your heart ❤️‍🩹 And he can easily help you to soften your heart for those difficult people. Especially when you let him in.

Matthew 5:16 NLT "In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father."

May his Holy Spirit help to soften that beautiful heart of yours to love like Jesus had done. Even if to this world, it doesn't make sense. You are not here to ease society's customs on what forgiveness is.

Here is a prayer above to help you 😉

Have a blessed day or night ✨

Choosing to live set apart is beautiful. It is a quiet declaration saying, “Your ways are better than mine. Therefore, I choose you, Jesus, over the world.”

“Very truly I tell you, you will weep and mourn while the world rejoices. You will grieve, but your grief will turn to joy.” —John 16:20 (NIV)

“Grief Turned to Joy” by YouVersion:

“These words, spoken by Jesus nearly 2,000 years ago, have been a lifeline for countless people facing sorrow. Today, let’s think about the first ones who clung to them: his disciples.

Jesus spoke these words on Thursday of Holy Week in the Upper Room. By Friday, he was crucified, and the world rejoiced in his death. Then came Saturday—a day of grief, confusion, and silence.

Perhaps the disciples were back in that same Upper Room, their tears breaking the quiet. Did the words from Thursday echo in their hearts? “You will grieve, but your grief will turn to joy.”

Did they dare believe it?

When Jesus said this, he wasn’t offering wishful thinking. He was declaring a truth written across the story of God’s people. From Abraham’s journey to Israel’s exodus, God had always turned grief into joy. It took time. It often involved loss. And it was always wrapped in mystery. But God was faithful.

If today feels like “Saturday” for you—a day of waiting, mourning, or uncertainty—know this: “You will grieve, but your grief will turn to joy.”

Cling to this promise. It is true because of the One who spoke it and the empty tomb that followed.

Your joy is coming. Hold on with hope, because God is still turning mourning into dancing, sorrow into singing, and grief into joy.

Share Your Faith: If you're grieving... if you're confused... if you're feeling hopeless... if you're waiting for your joy to arrive... you're not alone. Invite someone to join you as you pray this prayer, or add it to your prayer list:

Prayer: God, thank You for Your promise to turn my grief into joy. In times of sorrow and uncertainty, help me trust in Your faithfulness and cling to Your hope. Strengthen my heart to wait on You, knowing joy is coming because of Jesus and the empty tomb. Thank You for Your love. Amen.”

“Then he said, “I tell you the truth, unless you turn from your sins and become like little children, you will never get into the Kingdom of Heaven. So anyone who becomes as humble as this little child is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven. “And anyone who welcomes a little child like this on my behalf is welcoming me.”

When it comes to sharing your faith with someone and I mean anyone, it can certainly be intimidating at firsthand. Especially for those with faith that isn't present or is faded. Sure its exciting at first. But sometimes we may feel lost at what to say or think to ourselves "How do I tell them?" or "What would Jesus say?" With all these questions you may overthink of whether or not you should tell that person and might end up keeping it to yourself. It happens. This doesn't mean that you have to share the goodness of Jesus' love on your own. NO. You don't need to have it all figured out all the time. You dont have to be an expert. You just need his guidance.

How great is God to help us grow the seeds that we ourselves planted 🌱 Bringing many to salvation is God's job. All that we need to do as God has asked us, is always to play our part.

One of the many beauties of Gods plan is that he can use ordinary people. You or me for extraordinary things in this world to bring ✨ Remember, you never have to be perfect or know all the answers. All you have to do is just be available with the opportunites that the Lord Jesus Christ has given us to plant those seeds of love towards other people.

What person in your life can you make a difference to with Gods help?

God bless you and have a blessed day or night 🌙
