Just randomly going through my X posts, and I’m marveled by how often I fail to recognize the beauty in my own write-ups.
Like, I know I wrote them, but I’m reading them now and asking myself, When did I write this?
We don’t always give thanks from a place of abundance or celebration.
Sometimes, gratitude rises from sacrifice, adversity, and even pain.
This is why we must train our hearts to know the posture of thanksgiving especially when it’s hardest.
My path is lighted up.
I call forth good tidings in this season.
I find favour in the sight of God and men.
The glory of the Lord is risen upon me.
The joy of the Lord is my strength.
His love constrains me.
I stay yielded.

Allowing yourself to receive help, without guilt or obligation is vital.
We live in a society that instinctively conditions us to avoid debt at all costs. Yet we often forget that in the economy of favor, God chooses to work through people.

If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us.
Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us.
Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul.
Psalm 124:2-4.
Day 19 @cre8streak
Life is far too spiritual for us to approach it casually.
It is not a level playing field.
The opposing force is playing to win at all costs.
Even if that means resorting to costly, underhanded tactics.
Day 18 @cre8streak
Silence can often times be mistaken for acceptance.
I hope you’re boldly declaring what you want to see manifested in your life, and just as boldly speaking up for the change you desire. The kind that makes things better for you, and for those around you.
Day 17 @cre8streak
Where is the line between striving to improve and expending effort that no longer yields growth ?
Effort that might be better invested in the strengths you’re meant to refine.
How do we honestly bridge the gap between willingness and capacity, when desire is present but ability lags behind?
And at what point does encouragement to “keep trying” become unkind ?
It’s always easier to be an onlooker.
To observe from a safe distance.
But everything changes the moment your status shifts from observer to participant.
That’s where the real work, real courage, and real growth begins.
Day 12 @cre8streak
Refuse to be a hidden Christian, let your faith speak, let your compassion lead. Let your words, actions, and views on life reflect your convictions about Christ.
