Seeking God — really seeking — is more than just reading a few verses from the Bible in the morning and trying to be a good person that day. Seeking requires me to sacrifice the things I feel compelled to chase so I can be available to notice God’s clear direction. Whatever we chase, like it or not, gains our full attention. Jeremiah 29:13, “You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” (NIV)

I have not been posting on here as much as I would like but I promise to work on it every day now that I have this daily challenge up. I will be doing this daily and it says ‘spouse’ on the picture but I’ve read through some of these verses and I can conclude that you can use this to build a better friendship, relationship, or build a better you. It is not limited to just a spouse because I know that not most everybody is married, although would like to make it there someday. I will be doing this daily and I am hoping that it will help you as much as it will help me.

I Am No Victim, Kristene DiMarco

recovery-with-jesus

You might feel like what you are going through is way too difficult to overcome, and perhaps you are right. It is too difficult for you, but for the Lord, there is nothing too hard for Him. Give all your cares and burdens to Him, He is willing to carry them all for you in the name of the love He has for you. You are not alone, He is there for you, always. Call on His name and He will rush to your rescue.

Reblog if you run a Christian blog!

This blog is almost 6 months old and I think it’s time to do a follow spree. Also, this way we can all go through the notes and find new blogs to follow and meet new friends who we can talk about Jesus with. Happy reblogging and mingling! :)

If you believe it will work out, you’ll see opportunities. If you believe it won’t you will see obstacles.

It starts in the heart

- When you meet somebody with a negative tongue, you know he’s got a fearful heart. - When someone has a boasting tongue, it reveals an insecure heart. - When someone’s judgmental tongue just exposes a guilty heart. - When somebody with a filthy tongue has an impure heart.

On the other hand:

- If you find somebody who’s always encouraging others, he has a happy heart. - If he’s always speaking in a gentle way, you know he’s got a loving heart. - If he’s able to control his words, you know he’s got a peaceful heart.

Psalm 51:10, “Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me” (NIV).

Romance

Is it wrong to want to find someone to share my life with? How do I find the right person?

The Bible says:

There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.....A time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing (Ecclesiastes 3:1, 5)

Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you by the gazelles and by the does of the field: Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires (Song of Songs 2:7)

Every body wants to find their other half, find the soulmate who has the other rib that will complete yours. Find the Adam to your Eve and vice versa and be as one. It’s no mistake that God created romance, but rather the act of how we treat romance to be nowadays. We constantly seek for that person we hope to spend the rest of our lives with that we lose sight of what our purpose is. We continue to seek that when it doesn't go in our favor, we blame ourselves and just would go with whatever is being thrown our way i.e. when someone would show even the slightest bit of attention towards you, you see that as a sign that maybe they are the right person but really we’re just hoping that they are. It can even go as bad as having that person treat us like shit only to having us justify their actions as being “just the way they are.” We basically take away the standards God wants for us to find the perfect mate. What we should practice though is that when we turn towards God, when we let him handle our romantic relationship and not take over what God has planned for us, and especially to stop searching for the right one, God will make that person we are to spend the rest of our lives with known and it will be the best thing ever. And I can testify to that.

MY FUTURE IS IN YOUR HANDS (PSALM 31:15)
