In the Bible, waiting often includes a hope and a confidence in God and an expectation that He will act on our behalf in His good timing.

Have you being met with a disappointment in life and felt confused about why it went the way it did? Did you or someone you love experience a tragedy and you struggled to understand why?

To wait upon Him, and have confidence in His timing is tied to your willingness to Trust. The more we learn of God's enduring love for us, the deeper our trust becomes. We trade our weakness for His strength and are granted the spiritual gifts of faith, acceptance peace and trust.

God welcomes all. There are no qualifications, exceptions or exclusions.

(Save NOW for inspo LATER)

There are many ways that you can live your faith out in the world and the concept of 'welcome', which includes hospitality, inclusion, and an all accepting and encompassing love for all, is central to all of them.

Without question or condition our Heavenly Father receives us all. God’s arms are Eternally extending in love and welcome to each one of us. Enjoy the Eternal God and live in the "dwelling place" of His presence, sharing your day-to-day life with Him, secure in the knowledge that, whenever needed, His Eternal and Everlasting Arms will hold you safe.

Through faith in Jesus Christ, you are fully equipped and empowered to accomplish the work God has designed you to do.

(BOOKMARK me for later reflection)

Your self esteem is important and will grow the more you see your self through the eyes of God. Everyday we are bombarded with images and messages that tell us our worth is based on material things this can lead to comparing ourself to others. This is a distraction from your true purpose. God created you to be His Masterpiece. You are perfectly designed to do His good work.

Speak kindly to yourself and fill your thoughts with reflections on God's purpose for you. Amazingly, we are each God’s individual Masterpieces created with divine purpose to work together to honor Him according to our unique abilities and gifts.

God is your constant companion at every moment

God is your constant companion at every moment of your life. Isn't this wonderful?

(SAVE me and TAG your friends)

It really is such a blessing to know that God, Our Creator, is with us wherever we go. You are never beyond his view and he watches over us with love.

He promises that He will be with us. This promise gives us reassurance that God will be with us in good times and bad and that even through the worst storms of life, He will never leave us.

In both good times and bad, there is no where we can go that He is not with us. Even when we are steeped in a lifestyle of sin and destruction, He is there beckoning us to higher ground so we can follow His divine will, his path, in our lives, which leads to Eternal Life.

You must never lose heart when you think your prayers are not being answered straight away. Trust in God, for He is working out all of details with miraculous love and His will for you shall unfold in His perfect timing.

What do you think of when you think of God's song? For me I think of happiness, rejoicing, and praise. Music has a way of setting the soul free and gives us a beautiful outlet for praise, worship and joy!

One of my favorite references to the word "song" in the Bible is Psalm 42:8 which reads,

"Yet the Lord will command his lovingkindness in the day time, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life."

To me this means God's lovingkindness is with me during the day, and His song is with me in the dark times of my life. Not only can I feel His presence with me, but He allows peace to settle in my heart.

Do you have a go to song that lifts up your spirit? We would love to hear it. Comment below and share your go to song! ⬇️

I pray today that you feel just how lovable you are! Love is not perfection, rather, it is God himself beckoning you to reach out to Him and others in patience and with tender kindness.

(SAVE me for later guidance)

Faith is essential to Christianity. We know that only by faith in Christ is it possible to come into relationship with God. Hope is the conviction that God will keep His promises about the future. These two spiritual gifts are essential in your relationship to God and Paul reminds us that these gifts must be applied with love!

We are to love God with every part of our being. If we get this right, then everything will find its proper place.

(SAVE me for later inspiration)

The more you learn about the awesome love God has for you, the more it will cause you to want to respond in kind and to love him back with your heart, mind and soul! The love God has for you goes back further than you could ever imagine and nothing will ever stop Him from loving you.

If we really love God in the way the Bible tells us to love God, then we will want to do what pleases him. And by loving others and showing kindness to others, we fulfill his commandment to us.

‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets” (verses 37–40)

Our love for one another flows out of our love for God, which is a result of God's love for us.

When times are challenging it is easy for us to do

When times are challenging it is easy for us to doubt. We usually start by doubting ourselves, when we are in a place of doubt and despair we can forget the eternal love that is available to us. But even in difficult times, God's love is never changed by hard circumstances or challenges.

(Bookmark me for later)

"When all the Israelites saw the fire coming down and the glory of the LORD above the temple, they knelt on the pavement with their faces to the ground, and they worshiped and gave thanks to the LORD, saying, "He is good; his love endures forever." 2 Chronicle 7:3

No matter what may happen- God's love will be there for you and in this we can truly have hope. The true love of God is a high calling, a demanding effort that must be put forward even when we do not feel like it. We make that effort when we know we are worthy of this love and are humbled by the power of His love.

Hope is born from God's love! This hope is like a beam of sunlight rising up and above the horizon of our present circumstances. It pierces the darkness with a brilliant dawn. It encourages and inspires us to place our trust in the loving care of an eternal Father, who has prepared a way for those who seek eternal truth in a forever changing world.

This past week, I have been reflecting on Mother T

This past week, I have been reflecting on Mother Teresa’s famous quote, “be faithful in small things, because it is in them that your strength lies.”

(Save me for later inspiration!)

I started to ask, how do the small things and the big things intersect? I realized it is the small things that make the bigger things possible. When we are faithful in the small things and also show gratitude for them, we are actually showing our thanksgiving to God for all the many blessings He has granted us. Reflect on the 'small' things in your life that give you the strength to live out God's purpose for you.

Sometimes we can forget how lucky we are, a great way to remember and to give thanks to God is to make a list of the small things in your life and what they enable you to do. For example, something as small as your cellphone, which means you can stay connected to your friends. And then of course the very important things we use everyday but others might not be so lucky to have, water, electricity, a safe home and food on the table.

Rejoice with thanks in all the things in your life that really do make your bigger purpose achievable!

Comment below one 'small' thing in your live that fills you with gratitude.👇

(SAVE now for inspo later!)

What does your inner light mean to you as a Woman of God? What does it mean to you to shine the love of the Lord into this World? What does it mean to walk knowing God’s purpose for you?

We live in a competitive society and nothing tends to dim your light more quickly than comparing yourself to others. If we truly believe that God has a unique purpose for each and everyone of us then we are free from the pain of “compare & despair!” Instead we celebrate all around us and offer them our love and compassion, because we know that God is in fact working through them as well.

When we hold God in our heart our purpose becomes clear and we can live empowered in every moment knowing we are choosing our life path from love. We surrender to God’s will when we live with true purpose, and our inner light shines more brightly than we ever could've imagined!

Because our inner light comes through us from God, it shines so brightly that it attracts the people and opportunities that are part of His plan for us. What is for us, won’t go by us and we shall see the opportunities as God intended us to see them.

"This is the message we have heard from Him and declare to you: God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.” -1 John 1:5-7 (NIV)

When you show love to your friends and family you

When you show love to your friends and family you are living in obedience to God's love.

Research proves that giving to others changes not only your mood, but your physical body as well. All and any acts of giving and helpfulness combat the negative effects of stress, so loving others is actually a win win.

The Bible says, "I have told you these things so that My joy may be in you and your joy may be complete. This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he who lays down his life for his friends." -John 15:12

Showing acts of love and giving even in small ways can make a big difference in someone's day: like opening a door for someone, helping with schoolwork, sending an uplifting song from your playlist or leaving a positive comment on a post. Find as many little ways as you can!

Surrendering to God doesn’t mean you’ll all of

Surrendering to God doesn’t mean you’ll all of a sudden stop worrying about the things you can’t control.

(Bookmark me for later)

Surrender means you are granted a choice for when you are faced with worries. In turning to God you will find peace, acceptance, and a perspective on what you can and cannot control in your life.

The first tip on how to stop worrying about the future is for you to keep learning about God who you are surrendering to. Make your life about Him and the way you think about yourself and your life will change. Trust in God's love, let go and let peace and faith fill your mind and your life.

Think about the top 3 things that worry you and ask, how could turning to God help me to worry less about this? Where can I take positive action and where do I need to accept that something is out of my control? It’s important to find what works best for your relationship with God. Different tips or techniques work for different people!

God never changes, which means His promises are always trustworthy no matter what the situation.⠀
(Save this encouragement for later!)⠀
⠀
Here are 3 things that He has promised today and forever:⠀
1. God is with us. The Psalmist (most likely King David) says he fears no evil because the Lord is with him. Nothing is stronger than God, so what is there to fear if we know that God is walking through the valley with us?⠀
⠀
2. God will direct us along His path. The rod and staff of a shepherd was used to keep wayward sheep on the safe path with the rest of the herd. As our shepherd, the Lord uses His rod and staff to redirect us when we start to veer off course.⠀
⠀
3. God’s presence and direction will comfort us. God’s comfort doesn’t mean we won’t be afraid or that there won’t be some really hard days. It means the Lord will have compassion on us, console us during the hardest times and comfort us all along the way.⠀
⠀
We trust that even the valleys are a part of God’s larger story, and whatever decisions He makes, we want this situation to be used for His glory.⠀

God says He IS love- and that we are made in His image. So when we practice and demonstrate love, we are honoring Christ. (Bookmark this reminder for later!)⠀
⠀
There is enough divisiveness in the world and in our society. (And on Instagram.) Jesus gave his life for us by demonstrating His love, and He commands us to show the love He chose to give us- to others.⠀
⠀
There are 59 references in the Bible about our relationship with “one another.” EVERY SINGLE one of these verses are about love, and not judgment. ✔️ Here are just 10 examples: .⠀
1️⃣ “Love one another.” (John 13:34, John 13:35, John 15:12, John 15:16.)⠀
2️⃣ “Live in Harmony with one another.” (Romans 12:16)⠀
3️⃣ “Stop passing judgment on one another.” (Romans 13:8)⠀
4️⃣ “Serve one another in love.” (Galatians 5:13)⠀
5️⃣”Be kind and compassionate to one another.” (Ephesians 4:32.)⠀
6️⃣ “Have equal concern for one another.” (1 Corinthians 12:25)⠀
7️⃣” Accept one another, just as Christ accepted you.” (Romans 15:7.)⠀
8️⃣ “Do not grumble against each other.” (1 Thessalonians 5:11)⠀
9️⃣ “Do not slander one another.” (James 4:11)⠀
🔟 “Pray for each other.” (James 5:16)⠀
⠀
My prayer is that this year, even more love and encouragement goes around. I know our country and and as fellow believers we need it more than ever. Because after all, God is love. ❤️⠀

When you cling to God it is the kind of love that never lets go.⠀
(Save this encouragement for later!)⠀
⠀
No matter how you feel or how the days change, God's presence and care over your life remain the same. So you are never walking alone. His arms are always open and His grace never runs out. So you can turn to him no matter where you are. The truth is, He never left you in the first place.⠀
⠀
Many times its a matter of us refocusing our eyes toward Him and trusting that He is taking care of the bigger picture. He is true to His word and He is true to stick with you through every season of life. You are covered.⠀
⠀
Drop a ❤️ if you believe this is the greatest love on earth!⠀
