Infuse my heart with Your desires, Lord, so that they will become my desires.

(Psalm 37:4)

I love hearing stories of my dad telling others he is a Christian. #NoShame

And he quotes scripture now too!!

[Samantha @SamanthaDevi]

I can't make God love me more than He already does.

No one, including yourself, can change God's love for you. He loves because He is love.

[Samantha @SamanthaDevi]

I really wish my gram was still here so I could talk to her. 😢

She was more wise than any educated person I know.

Since she's been gone, nothing seems quite right.

Oil is never produced just by looking at a tree or plant...something must be done with it to extract the oil.

#InsightsFromTheFragranceIndustry

The Word must be worked/put into action to produce oil

You don't have to be a "natural" to become a great leader; you simply need a heart for God and a teachable spirit. Most of the great leaders in Scripture were made, not born.

[Samantha @SamanthaDevi]

I used to find it weird when guys who just met you would ask "so what is your situation?".

Now I appreciate the boldness.

One of the sweetest memories I have is teaching my gram how to write her name...

I taught her stuff I learned in books, but she bestowed upon me wisdom she gained from experience.

Life lessons from gram will be with me for years to come.

[Samantha @SamanthaDevi]

Who do I work for? No one but the Lord.

That needs to be my mindset for everything I do, whether it be at work, church, or in my personal life.

[Samantha @SamanthaDevi]

If God said it, then I'm going to stand on it, no matter how I feel or what people say.

#SeasonsAreTemporary

How I feel = 🔪
How I react = ❤

Next up on the prayer list.... looking up verses for this...

[Samantha @SamanthaDevi]

When you go through bad or tough situations, do you become better or bitter?

[Samantha @SamanthaDevi]

@dBERRY__ Congrats!!

[Samantha @SamanthaDevi]

When I was younger being rare was something I dreaded. I just wanted to fit in...now that I'm older being rare still isn't comfortable, but I now know being rare means being remarkable and exquisite.

Sometimes you just have to remind yourself of the things God has said to you and has said about you

[Samantha @SamanthaDevi]

Laughing at the fact that people can feel threatened so easily. I was just offering to help. I don't intend on taking your "spot".

Never going to act defeated.

New notebooks always make me feel better. Just bought a new one for my intentional growth planning and execution.

Grateful for opportunities to grow in ways I used to be fearful of... definitely an answer to prayer.

[Samantha @SamanthaDevi]

At some point in time I wont beat myself up about the "little" things, but the bright side is it means I'm always looking to improve.

Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. - Matthew 5:4

#PromisesToHoldOnto

[Samantha @SamanthaDevi]

I'm so grateful I cherished the time I had with my gram. It makes missing her sooo much these past few days a lot easier.

My heart literally hurts but is so full when I think of her.

Gram is still my bestest friend
