Colossians 3:17
Just a little friendly reminder for you today! ✨
It is okay to not be perfect and to be broken, because that’s when God can come in and fix all the pieces when we surrender to Him. It may seem hard now, but joy comes in the morning! The place where you feel abandon by everyone, is really where God has placed you to be met by Him. God is making things happen for you even when you don’t see it. Just remember this: a seed has to crack and break for it to grow. 🌿
Jesus loves you!

“How we surrender, screams volumes of how we trust”.
The definition of trust is: firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability, or strength of something or someone. Psalm 32:10 says “many are the sorrows of the wicked, but steadfast love surrounds the one who trusts in the Lord”. Life is scary and stressful at time, and we are not promised an easy life. But we are promised steadfast love, surrounding us. We are promised the joy of the Lord, we are promised peace in His presence, if we only trust. If we only believe in the reliability, ability, truth, and strength, of our God. ✨
Something wonderful and crazy to think about: He’s not and “I told you so” kind of God. He’s a “Come here. Welcome home. I’ll keep you safe, I’ll keep you warm. Let me hold you, let me heal you, I love you so much. I have so much for you. I’m not mad at you. Trust who I am. I will never leave you, my grace will never run out. Stay with me” kind of God. ✨
Don’t let what you see, make you forgot what God has told you.

In this world it is so easy to get caught up in our every day lives and get consumed with what our eyes see and what others say. But look to God! All our value and worth is found in Him. Don’t get caught up in the lies, seek the truth that only our great Savior provides.
The problem you are trying to face is an opportunity to upgrade in your perspective. Jesus sees the deepest part of you and wants relationship with you. He loves every part of you and wants to have a relationship with you. Being vulnerable isn’t something easy to do, but God calls us to be vulnerable with Him. And during the time of vulnerability with Him, there is peace found in Jesus. A peace that surpasses all understanding.✨
Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.- 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18✨
Because one day ...
We will look straight into the eyes of Jesus Christ.
He’ll take our faces in His nail-pierced hands, and tell us how much He loves us.
And all of the sudden the money, popularity, and earthly possessions will be nothing but lost.
On this day, the only thing worthy of His attention will be the way we loved.
Do not wait any longer, start loving NOW.
“Until God opens the next door, praise Him in the hallway”.
Sometimes, as hard as it can be, we have to wait on the timing of the Lord. No it isn’t easy or enjoyable to do, but we can have peace in the waiting knowing our God is making all things new and beautiful in their timing. We just have to rely on the strength of God, and not our own. 🤍
She is not threatened by the battle that lies ahead, for she knows there will be victory in whatever The Lord has planned.
~ Morgan Harper Nichols
One day, you will tell your story about how you overcame that battle you went through, and God will send you the exact people who need to hear that story.
- There is purpose for the battles that you through.
- There is purpose in the pain you feel.
- There is a story waiting to be told if you put your trust in God, and rely on His timing, and not your own. ❤️
You can’t expect God to be the source of your peace, if the world is the source of your satisfaction.
-
We can’t serve two idols. God tells us to choose. It is either Him or the world. The world will leave you broken and empty but God will fill you with His love and peace. Run to Him and surrender everything.
Let this be the promise that you rest in, each and every day. When things are uncertain in your life, you can rest in the truth and knowledge that our God holds the future, and is the same yesterday, today, and forever. ✨
“The only love that won’t disappoint you is one that can’t change, that can’t be lost, that is not based on the ups and downs of life or how well you live. It is something that not even death can take away from you. God’s love is the only thing like that”. ✨-
Make running to God [with ALL you have] a reflex. God’s arms are spread wide open, waiting for you to come to Him. We have an amazing, wonderful and AWESOME God. There is nothing that He can’t do!!✨ Happy Wednesday Friends!!
Sorrow looks back, worry looks around, but faith looks up.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson
Isn’t crazy that we know the God who creates the sunrises and sunsets?! And what is even crazier, they are different everyday. Not one is the same. And what is even crazier than that!? The God who created the sky created you and made you unique. You are special and amazing just the way you are. Look up to God!! He cares for you.💛
Life is sweeter when you smile!
•
The cost of joy, is a simple smile. One smile of happiness can lighten the heart of another. It may be simple, but it’s the small things that we always miss. Remember to smile and share the joy of a child.

The bible tells us that reap what we sow. So be sowing words of kindness to yourself and others and rest in the goodness of God. 🙌🏻

“We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ”. 2 Corinthians 10:5
WARNING: Reflections in this mirror may be distorted by socially constructed ideas of ‘beauty’.
Each and every one of us has grown up in a world where there is a specific look to beauty. You need to have this and that, have to look a certain way just to even feel good at the end of the day. But here’s the thing: Beauty is unique. Beauty is in each and every one of you, along with an extraordinary purpose from God. You were made with purpose, you are a promise from God, and Jesus loves you immeasurably that He died on the cross for you. You don’t need the approval of others, this world, or your friends and family to be happy or feel beautiful. You are fearfully and wonderfully made and dear friend, you are special. No one has it together, no one knows what they’re doing, and we have ALL fallen short of the glory of God. and that’s the amazing thing about the sweet grace of God.🤍
Lamentations 3:22-23 “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, His mercies never come to and end, and are new every morning”.
~ never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God~
In life, so many things in our lives are unknown. We are not promised peace, and smooth sailing times. BUT we have God on our side, who is never changing. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. We don’t have to strive to know the future of our situation, because we know the integrity of our God. 🤍
Hey Friends!! If you haven’t listened to our most recent podcast episode, Enjoying the Journey, what’s stopping you? Go listen on !! ✨
God is mighty to save. He never leaves us or forsakes us. Run to Him with everything. Every time you see or feel an obstacle, proclaim who God is. He loves you!
Heart of a worshiper:
God’s timing, not mine.
God’s will, not mine.
God’s plan, not mine.
God’s glory, not mine.
•
Today choose to have a heart of a worshiper. Lay down your will and plans and pick up God’s. His will and timing are the only one that matter.
“He has made everything appropriate in its time. He has also set eternity in their heart, yet so that man will not find out the work which God has done from the beginning even to the end”. Ecclesiastes 3:11🌟
For though I fall, I will rise again. Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my Light.
micah 7:8 ✨
“And I will lead the blind in a way that they do not know, in paths that they have not known I will guide them. I will turn the darkness before them into light, the rough places into level ground. These are the things I do, and I do not forsake them.”
-
God is always faithful to fulfill His promises to you. We are commanded to not worry about the future, because we are assured that His goodness and mercy will follow us for the rest our lives. So don’t strive, and don’t worry, because joy comes in the morning. ✨
we often make doing good works the object of our faith, forgetting that doing good works is actually the byproduct of our faith. there’s nothing wrong with wanting to put your faith to action, but if you aren’t beholding God, seeking to know Him intimately, you’ve made Him an appendage of instead of the heart beat of your faith. - christian bosse ✨
REMINDER: your situation does not define the rest of your life, and your situation is for a season. keep praying, don’t loose hope! there is power in prayer and the words you speak 🙌🏻

Isaiah 40:28-31
Have you not known? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength. Even youths shall faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted; but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.
Friendship isn’t about who you’ve known the longest. It’s about who walked into your life, said “I’m here for you” and proved it.

Find that one person today that means the most to you and tell them you care for them and appreciate them. Do not ever take for granted what you have. You are loved and amazing! Happy Wednesday Friends!💛
Hey Friends!! What a sweet reminder that whatever we do and wherever we go, God’s love is unconditional and everlasting. Walk in the Lord’s strength and love this week. 🤍✨

1 John 4:9-11 : “This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.”
NEW EPISODE!! This week Victoria did a solo episode, talking about Character and the Character that God had set inside of you!! Go check it out, share with friends, and enjoy! ✨
A lot of times in life, we go through things that stunt our faith. That make us think in the possible, rather than “what can God do with my situation”. This verse brings such peace, especially in times like these when there has been confusion and stress on matters in life. But we have the ability to trust God. YOU reading this. You have the ability to call on the Name of Jesus. He’s just one prayer away. He’s always there for us. We have the authority to speak life and death. Today we encourage you, whatever you are going through or whatever is happening in your life, trust God. He’s never going to let you down. He’s constant, consistent, and everlasting in love. Give it to Him, and watch it all unfold. 🙌🏻
You are enough. Not because of who you are and what you do, but WHO is in you and what He has done. Though sometimes we don’t feel strong, we have more power and love on our side that we can’t even comprehend. And THAT right there friends, is enough.
We have a new podcast episode up on !! We talk all about Labeling Yourself. Go check it out, and let us know what you think! We hope this encourages you. ✨
