Receive His mercy; receive His forgiveness. Quit beating yourself up, living guilty, believing that you’ve seen your best days and you could never measure up. You don’t have to. When you can’t get up to His level, God stoops down to yours.
They crucified Jesus and put Him in the grave. They thought He was done, but on the third day, He rose up and said, “I am alive forevermore.”
God has the final say!
When you make the Lord your God, when you stay under the shelter of the Most High, the Scripture says He covers you with His wings. He’ll hide you from things that could have brought you down.
Every day you stay in faith, every day you do your best, you can’t see it, but your spiritual muscles are getting stronger. Your character is being developed. You’re showing God that He can trust you.
As long as you stay focused on your pain, you’re going to get stuck. There’s a blessing in that pain. There’s a purpose for the pain. God wouldn’t have allowed it if He wasn’t going to bring good out of it.
Are you trying to pray away what God is using to refine you? Instead of trying to change everything, pray, “God, help me to change. Help me to come up higher, to be more patient, to overlook the offense, to not be jealous, to not let other people steal my joy.”
If you stay focused on what you see, you can get talked out of your dreams. You have to stay focused on what God said. When you focus on what He promised, you’ll walk on water, you’ll go places you couldn’t go on your own.

God is about to do something that not only amazes you, but other people are going to see the goodness of God in your life. Don’t complain about the problem. The problem has a purpose; the problem has promotion.
