God is love and He calls us to love and to be love

God is love and He calls us to love and to be loved.

(TAG your friends and SAVE me for later reading!)

From the love of the Father and the Son springs the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the well of God's love inside of you. If you are called to holiness you are called to grow in grace and to live in the Holy Spirit.

By faith, we unite to Christ and share in the Holy Spirit forever. Christ’s love is ours forever.

“The Spirit will never leave you because nothing can separate us from the love of Christ.” (Rom 8:31–39).

Perhaps the greatest assurance of salvation that we have is this: the Spirit will only leave us if Christ is faithless, yet he will never be faithless, He cannot be. So we have the Spirit and thereby the sign of God’s love forever.

Drop an Amen if you agree 👇🧡

You can do anything when you walk with Jesus.

You can do anything when you walk with Jesus.

(TAG your BFF's and SAVE me for later inspo!)

When you accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior you are handing your life over to God. You find the courage, through faith to depend completely upon God and His strength to handle the things in your life.

This is your God-confidence and the first step in God-confidence is a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

We are told all the time that we need to be confident and self reliant. But God-confidence is not about your strength or the confidence that you put into earthly things. Having a worldly focus means putting your confidence into things like money, status, people, and appearance. Having a Godly focus means to seek your confidence from your relationship with God.

With Jesus in your heart, you will be able to face your fears and understand His purpose for you. You got this!

Daughter of the King, your Heavenly Father has a purpose for your life.

(TAG a friend and SAVE me for later.)

As a daughter of the King, you were designed with purpose. You are not just anyone. He handpicked you and called you out of the world to do His works, you beautiful have encountered Jesus Christ. You’ve been chosen.

The Bible says the “eyes of the Lord searches the earth to strengthen those whose heart are fully committed to Him,” (2 Chronicles 16:9).

God said it was time to call you, His daughter out of darkness and into His light. You were chosen to be a blessing for your generation and you have been called for such a time as this. When you accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior the same spirit who raised Jesus from the dead will reside in you and anything Jesus did on this earth you can do it as well.

As a daughter of the King, through the Holy Spirit, you have power given to you when you surrender yourself to His direction. Allow Him to lead you and you will be led by His love and for His Glory.

When you take a step of faith, as being vulnerable

When you take a step of faith, as being vulnerable requires, He delights in you.

(TAG your BFF and bookmark me for later.)

He knows your heart, but He also want's your whole heart and that means opening up and daring to be honest and vulnerable before Him. Remember honesty is the key in all relationships and your relationship with God is a two way street.

He delights in us as we see Him for who He is and that He is loving, kind, righteous and just. This means being brutally honest because when we bring Him our inner most selves, we submit to Him. When we lay our deepest secrets at His feet where they belong, unexplainable peace will follow because He is now with us.

By taking a step of faith and risking vulnerability, you let Him into your heart which is exactly where He belongs. He wants to change our hearts and minds, but we must allow Him to and this starts with laying all your burdens down before Him. I know it takes strength to admit you might not have it all sorted out, but when you let go of your way you make room for His and His way is always going to be the better of the two!

Your walk with Jesus begins with a deep yearning.

Your walk with Jesus begins with a deep yearning.

(SAVE me and TAG a friend.)

Perhaps you've heard this said before, that each of us has a God-shaped hole in our hearts? To me that means, we instinctively know that something is missing from our lives and the truth is, only Jesus’ love can fill it. Do you know, remember or recognize that feeling of your heart yearning for something beyond itself? How blessed we are to have found out that Jesus is the answer.

We learn how to live by keeping in step with Jesus. He is your model for selflessness and love lived out in your daily life. Give your love to those around you in the same way that He Himself loved others. Study His Word carefully to see how He did it, then be fervent in your prayers to find ways to do so yourself.

Those who want to know God need to know Jesus. He is the only one who can truly show us who God is, what God is like, what God wants, and how God leads. Knowing Jesus and following his example and instruction for life is the sure path to knowing God.

Jesus brings peace to the weary and fills our hearts with compassionate love, I am so grateful for Him.

Drop an AMEN if you agree! 💛

He cannot be contrary to His nature, and He is always faithful.

(SAVE for later and TAG a friend.)

Unlike everything else in His creation, God is unchanging. His love and faith in you is always the same and always endures. Think about it, God doesn't love any of us differently and even when we may wander or lose focus, He never loses faith in us. It is bigger than our human will power because faith is a characteristic and a gift from God!

By His example you are called to increase in faith. Faith has been described like a muscle, just from not using that muscle it withers away and weakens. Our faith is the same way, you need to use your faith and work it everyday to grow like Christ and increase your faith.

Faith is not the power of positive thinking, it is not found by the will of the human mind. It is not by any human effort at all except by the intake of the Word of God. Faith is a gift from God and He will give you or increase your faith by the daily reading of the Bible.

How do you grow in faith? Comment below and tag a friend.

What does it mean to live with the Gospel at the center of our lives?

(TAG your BFF for inspiration!)

You were designed for the purpose of knowing Jesus Christ and making Him the center of your life. Living a Gospel centered life means Jesus is the center of your life and He is in control. You surrender your whole self to Jesus and to following His lead.

A Gospel-centered life begins with realizing that the source of everything we are is God. He created us, he loves us, He gifted us with all our talents, He authors our life's story, and every blessing that we receive comes from Him. Your God centered life has one ultimate goal: that He gets the glory.

Your decisions are no longer controlled by selfish desires, but by desires that rise up in our soul from the blessing of His love. So when conflict or hardship arises, you are so fortunate because you can turn to God's wisdom for the way forward.

We live in a graceless culture.

(TAG a friend and BOOKMARK me for later.)

You weren’t created to fit in and be enough for this world. You were created to smile with true happiness as you walk through life with the Lord. You were created to praise Him for His love and perfection. Through Christ we are set free from the burden of shame, guilt and always trying to measure up the inconstant and false images created by society.

When we follow God we stand for truth and we impact the world for Christ. I don't know about you, but sometimes it seems like everything in culture is set against following and honoring the Lord and it's important to acknowledge those influences and not be taken in by them. No matter what be encouraged and keep following Jesus. Our God is on the throne, and all things are possible with Him! He is with you each step of the way.

Remember no matter what culture tries to tell you, you are created to praise a God who knows your flaws, your secrets, your less than perfect looks, grades,habits and still says, “you’re fully seen and fully loved by me”.

Drop an AMEN if you agree! 👇

God has shown His love for us by giving us the gift of His Word.

(TAG your friends and SAVE me for later.)

To love someone means that you also love everything about them, this is most true of our love for God. We love Him, and that leads us to love everything about Him and one of those things is His Word. To love God is to love his Word and born from our true love for Him and the understanding of all He has done for us, we keep His word. Our obedience is born from our love and is guided by His word.

"But if anyone keeps His word, the love of God has been truly perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him." 1 John 2:5

God is truly honored when we love His words and yes I believe He desires that we seek out His input because we love His way and know that our life is transformed by His goodness. We know from the scripture and from our own experiences, that we find true life as a result of hearing and following His Word.

Keep your eyes on Jesus and He will always be enough.

(Tag you BFF's and SAVE me for later reading.)

When we focus too much on ourselves and what the world and others think about or value, we can lose our sense of awe and wonder at just how magnificent Jesus is. As we navigate this life we will quickly find that alone, we are not enough. But with Him and in Him, we have everything we need, because He is enough.

Jesus see's you for who you truly are, a beloved child of God, and by walking in step with Him you will only continue to grow into a more loving and more God filled example of His goodness.

Within every single page of the Bible, you are told of exactly who you are. You are told that you are the light of the world (Matthew 5:14), the salt of the earth (Matthew 5:13), worthy of being saved (Romans 5:8), more precious than rubies (Proverbs 3:15) and His chosen people (1 Peter 2:9). And because He has never once shown Himself to be anything but constant, you can rest assured knowing that even if you make a mistake, everything He says about you still holds true.

It was love that moved the Father to send his Son

It was love that moved the Father to send his Son Jesus to save us.

(SAVE me for later and TAG a friend for encouragement today.)

Love is the reason why God is still present among us through His Spirit. It is because of God’s love that we enjoy life. Jesus is God's best gesture of His love for you, for it is only through Jesus that you are reconnected to God.

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him."
John 3: 16-17

When you have accepted God's love for you, you grow in grace and are given the gift to live in peace. The fact is, God the Father sent his Son, and the Son obeyed Him, and so we must also obey to God with all our heart. Jesus was sent to share God's love, think about this...when you are sent to share love, do you share it willingly and joyfully with others?

Happy Easter and resurrection day! 🙏🏼
❤️
Jesus’ resurrection gives us hope for the present and for the future.
❤️
On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb. They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them. In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’ Then they remembered his words. 🙏🏼 Luke 24
❤️
God bless you and your family today! He is risen!

Jesus took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we are granted eternal life through our acceptance and belief in His love and sacrifice.
❤️
Jesus was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.”
❤️
Above his head they placed the written charge against him: THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS. Two rebels were crucified with him, one on his right and one on his left. Those who passed by hurled insults at him, shaking their heads and saying, “You who are going to destroy the temple and build it in three days, save yourself! Come down from the cross, if you are the Son of God!”
❤️
In the same way the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders mocked him. “He saved others,” they said, “but he can’t save himself! He’s the king of Israel! Let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in him. He trusts in God. Let God rescue him now if he wants him, for he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ ” In the same way the rebels who were crucified with him also heaped insults on him. From noon until three in the afternoon darkness came over all the land.
❤️
About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli,lemasabachthani?” (which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”)

Matthew 27
❤️
I’m so thankful for Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. Type Amen if you are too! 😊🙏🏼

God really wants you to believe in yourself.

God really wants you to believe in yourself.

(Tag you BFF's for encouragement today and SAVE me for later!)

Unlike the opinions of other people the way God see's you never changes and this is where your true confidence lives! Placing a higher value on what people think about you over what God thinks about you can lead you off track and hurt your belief in yourself.

As Christians we know that our self-worth is rooted in Christ, this is a safe haven in an increasingly image based world. If you think about it from a Biblical perspective, we learn that you can’t increase or decrease your value by changing your appearance, possessions, or getting more likes on social media. Ok it may change how you see yourself for a moment but it doesn’t change your actual self-worth which is based in Christ.

He will give you true confidence, and sometimes it really takes deep strength and courage to step into God’s call on your life. Learn to see yourself as God sees you, believe what He says about you, and experience His direct approval for yourself.

You got this, just ask Jesus!

Walk with the Lord and He will renew you.

(TAG a friend and SAVE me for later!)

Our God is a righteous God, not standing for sin. But He is also a merciful God, whose steadfast love endures forever, and He welcomes His wandering children home with open arms. Never fear Him, for His love for you is greater than anything you have or will ever know. When you are honest with Him you are taking a moment to be honest with yourself as well, there is great power in truth telling and God wants us to see our wrong doing so we can become accountable and mature spiritually and with a renewed spirit act in accordance to His word and His will.

“Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.” James 5:16

Perhaps you could even say that one of the reasons we are restored is to go out and restore others. We should be guardians of one another in love, not letting those we love drift away from the Father.
