Miles to Go

“It eluded us then, but that’s no matter—tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther. . . . And then one fine morning— So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.”

[chatwithgod]

“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”

Romans 15:13

So, my dear brothers and sisters, be strong and immovable. Always work enthusiastically for the Lord, for you know that nothing you do for the Lord is ever useless.

1 Corinthians 15:58 (NLT)

Let’s go on as we have done so far and leave everything in God’s Hands. He will let us know when to change course.

Proverbs‬ ‭3:5-6‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.”

——- This is one of those verses that I tend to know and quote and start to “lose” the true meaning somewhere in the “memorization” of it. But really…. how powerful is this verse?!?! It’s not about “reading” the verse. It’s absorbing it, being a doer of the Word! Do what He says! Lean on Him, trust Him, surrender my feeble thoughts and ways and understanding to Him. He will direct me if I truly give Him the wheel … and stop trying to be a backseat driver too!

“When we don’t renew our minds, we naturally lean on our own understanding because that’s all there is for us. But if you renew your mind to God’s Word and His way, you will walk in more and more freedom day by day, moment by moment.” - Devotional: ‘Getting God’s Perspective On Your Life’ by Nancy Alcorn

And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.

Ephesians 4:32 (NKJV)

[justbeingnamaste]

Some days you will be the light for others, and some days you will need some light from them. As long as there is light, there is hope, and there is a way.

Pray and trust in God

[dirty-feet-and-humble-heart-dea]

My God said “Let there be”… and there was. There’s no greater beauty.

[idreamimaginarythings]

Pray <3 Just saying “Hi, God, I could really use your help” is sometimes the best and most beautiful prayer!

Not everyone has seen what you have, or heard what you heard, learned what you know, been where you’ve been. So let’s respect each other rather than judge, love without boundaries, embrace the diversities. We have all been in battles no one knows about, and survived. And that, deserves respect.

Let God direct your steps.

Proverbs 3:6 (via abibleverseforeachday)

There’s a reason I am not writing the story and God is. He knows how it all works out, where it all leads, what it all means. I don’t.

Today I spent a lot of time thinking about how amazingly God works in our weaknesses and how the darkest points of our lives can be the points that turn into the brightest lights.

As soon as I was born, my parents found out that I had a heart defect. And two open heart surgeries later, my heart still isn’t perfect, but it’s functional. But today I got to thinking about how God is taking my broken heart and using it for His glory and His good. By His grace, I plan to eventually be a heart doctor for children, and it’s my biggest hope that I get the chance to save the lives of children who are going through the things I have been through myself.

And I just think that it’s so beautiful that God planted this desire within me. It’s something I’ve felt my entire life, and it’s honestly my favorite thing about myself. Because God wants to take what is broken and battered and use it to repair more lives. The world may look at my heart and say that it is useless and worthless, but God looks at my heart and sees that it is healed and repaired. He sees the potential within it, though it’s the most broken thing about me. He sees what it could be used for, and He looks past its appearance to see these things.

I think it’s amazing of God that He does this with so much of who we are. Just because you see something as broken, that doesn’t mean that God does. God might see it as the thing He is going to use within you. And if that’s not beautiful, then I don’t know what is.
