Not the teenage romance I remembered. 😆😆
The first 2 chapters read more like a psychological thriller told from the mind of a vampire fighting his own instincts..
Finally, I understand how hard Edward fought. Not just for Bella, but against himself.. 😭

“It is reassuring to know that God is still all-powerful, that nothing touches my life without His permission. … In the hour of trial I may not be able to see His design, but I am confident it must be in line with His purpose.” —Billy Graham
A silent believer is a powerless believer. You have to speak the blessing before you see the blessing. God has promised you freedom, favor, peace, but you have to declare it. Something happens when you speak. Forces of darkness are broken. Strongholds come down.
Too often, we put these conditions on God and conditions on our prayers. “God, I’ll be happy if my boss moves to the back side of Mars. When you get him out of my life, then I’ll have a good attitude.” Have you ever thought that God is using that person to do a work in you, to develop your character, to teach you to love those who are not very lovable? Instead of saying, “God, get me out of this situation.” Pray, “God, come into this situation. Help me to have a good attitude, help me to do the right thing when the wrong thing is happening.”
“Sometimes life brings us to the point where we don’t see much hope for the future. If you’re there right now—whatever the situation, whatever the reason—let me assure you that God cares, and because of Him your future can be different.” —Billy Graham
God cancelled your plans to save your life. He sent you the other direction to avoid danger. He fights battles you know nothing about. His plan is better than yours.
God will warn you of things you can’t see. He’ll whisper to your spirit. Instead of ignoring it, we need to obey when we don’t understand, trust when it doesn’t make sense. Recognize that God is keeping you from unnecessary trouble and heartache.
MARCH DECLARATION.. we are starting out STRONG!!
Say this out loud:
“I guard my mind like I guard my destiny.
Only truth gets a seat at my table.
Every voice that contradicts God is dismissed.
I think with power.
I think with peace.
I think with purpose.
My mind is mature. My spirit is steady.
And I will not host what God has already defeated.”
Fear…. your seat is revoked.
Offense…. your seat is revoked.
Comparison….your seat is revoked.
Shame…. your seat is revoked.
Only faith gets a vote in this season.
I just found a beautiful scripture: Isaiah 41:10.
There will always be trials and tribulations in life, but God will carry you through every storm and give you strength to make it, even when you feel like you can't. 🤍
