this life is too short to do anything but.
someone once told me “imagine a loved one going to hell, but before, they look u in ur eyes and ask ‘why didn’t u tell me about Jesus?’” & ever since, i’ve been more on fire for sharing the gospel.
hell is just as real as heaven. share the gospel, even if people reject it.
just a reminder that your mess is welcome with Jesus. sitting at His feet doesn’t require a perfectly put together version of you. biblically speaking, He does His greatest work in the darkest moments. so let go tonight, look up, and let Him heal.
Modesty applies to more than just what we wear. Modesty applies to what we watch & listen to. Modesty applies to our speech, action, & most importantly intentions. We don’t get to draw the line where modesty begins, because God already drew the line, and it starts at the heart.
don't treat others how they treat you. treat others how God treats you. that's what we're called to. forgiveness 70×7. mercy. grace. patience. love. humility. don't let the ways of the world make you forget who God's called you to be.
if you don't pray for them, who will?
God puts people on our hearts and in our minds for a reason. tempted to gossip about someone? pray for them instead. frustrated with a coworker's behavior? pray for them. someone was rude to you? pray for them.
prayer changes things.
While Jesus was on the cross He looked down at His mockers and killers and said,
“Father forgive them, for they know not what they do”
Next time you have trouble forgiving, i want you to imagine Jesus, nailed to a tree, forgiving those who put Him there...
when God created Eve he called her a “helper”. she wasn’t Adam’s servant and she wasn’t his possession. she had her own inherent value, she contributed and worked too. women were not created to be the possession of men. women were created to change the world too.
