Life can be extremely messed up at times, we all go through those moments in life when it seems that the world has turned its back on us. Pushed us away to be forgotten by the world around us, but what if I told you that your life was created for so much more than the day to day hustle and bustle and craziness of this world. What if I told you there was hope for every situation you face. Life is such a precious thing, how we live our lives is directly impacted by what we place our faith and hope in.
If we take a step back and look at our lives in replay it wouldn’t take long to find one of those moments that shook us to the core. Looking back on my own life I can pinpoint numerous times in the last few years that turned my world upside down. It’s these moments that we tend to crumble instead of looking toward the one person who can help us through all the crazy ups and downs we face.
The only way for us to get back up when the world knocks us down is to lean into the strength provided by Christ. I heard it said once that it is only when you cling to the promises of God and let His word define who you truly are that you will find the strength to truly live. In this crazy life it is so easy to let the lies of the enemy hold us back from the calling God has placed on our lives.
It’s easy to believe the lies, but when it comes to believing what our creator says about us, we turn the other way. I wonder what would happen if we as the children of God took a stand against the enemy and began to declare the word of the Lord over our own lives and the lives of those around us.
Life has a funny way of reminding us of everything wrong going on around us during the moments we need hope the most. In the moments we are looking for answers and hope, all we seem to find is more questions and discouragement.
I remember when I was young setting on the front porch of my Grandmother’s home listening as she described what it was like growing up in a small town, the struggles of growing up with little, yet never once did she say she wished her life would have been different. I learned a very important lesson from my grandma that day. It’s not about what you have and what you don’t have, how you live your life is what really matters. How we live our lives all revolves around what we believe.
I pray you find hope and courage to keep on living your life to the fullest and if you’re not, there’s no better time to start then the present! I pray you find comfort and peace as you read through the pages of your bible, as well as a new outpouring of His presence. No matter what life throws your way remember, when God is with you there is nothing that can come against you. Even when trials and overwhelming circumstances arise, He is with you no matter what.
Much love friends,

Yes and amen!!!!
