Focusing in My Heart!

Psalm 139:23-24

"Search me, God, and know my heart;
   test me and know my anxious thoughts.

See if there is any offensive way in me,
   and lead me in the way everlasting."

I have always try to be the best person that I could be. I hold my head up looking at Christ knowing that He is the only One who will judge my heart. Lately, I have been very overwhelmed with what is going on in my life. My anxious thoughts have filled my head, and I have not been focusing on what truly matters. 

That is why it is important to always ask God to reveal what is hidden in your heart. I am going to work on focusing more on my Abba this week so that I can make it a lifestyle.

Let's pray!

Dear Heavenly Father,

I pray that You will guide me through the storms of life. I pray that my heart will be focused on You. Guide my heart. I give it all to You, Father.

In Jesus Name,

Amen

Psalm 13:He is near!

Today, God showed me Psalm 13. Although I have read it before, this time it felt so real. I know that God is good and here for me, but in the times of distress I focus on what is happening instead of God's loving hand. He is so faithful. If you are waiting in the middle of storm, this is for you. 

Psalm 13

" Lord, how long must I wait? Will you forget me forever?
      How long will you turn your face away from me?
 How long must I struggle with my thoughts?
      How long must my heart be sad day after day?
      How long will my enemies keep winning the battle over me?
 Lord my God, look at me and answer me.
      Give me new life, or I will die.
 Then my enemies will say, "We have beaten him."
      They will be filled with joy when I die.
 But I trust in your faithful love.
      My heart is filled with joy because you will save me.
 I will sing to the Lord.
      He has been so good to me."

Staying Positive!

These last few weeks have been full of stress, hurt, and exhaustion. I have been two faced: positive at school and complaints at home. I surround myself with people who love and care about me, yet they do not know what is going on. So why has it been so hard for me to stay positive?

I think the answer is because of pride. My flesh is crying out attention and sympathy. I just want to be better in my time, and I definitely do not want to wait. I have been thinking more about me and my situation then what's going on in the world today. I will admit it being positive hurts more than my negativeness.  

I thought to myself what if I tried being positive everywhere I go? Positive at the store, positive at school, and positive at home. It is a hard challenge,but so far I am feeling a lot better about what is going on with me. 

I pray that when things aren't going your way or when you are not feeling like being positive that God would shower you with His love and hold you in His arms. 

Stay positive, Beloved!

Psalm 40:4 

"Blessed is the one
   who trusts in the LORD,
who does not look to the proud,
   to those who turn aside to false gods."

I love His Creation!

1 Chronicles 16:29

"Praise the Lord for the glory that belongs to him. Bring an offering and come to him.

Worship the Lord because of his beauty and holiness"
