You can you resist forcing solutions to this week's problems. We don't enjoy waiting. Who does? When it comes to solutions we pray for God's will, wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Then we do the hard part. We WAIT! But not passively. We still keep going, living, loving and doing the next right thing in front of us to do. Today we discuss God's response to US when we pray, not to our problem. James 4:8

When you REALLY trust that God cares and you believe that He is in control, your perspective regarding your situation can change for the better. Matthew 1:20-24

Our Christmas Message to YOU!

Holiday family gatherings are wonderful but they can also be a breeding ground for gossip. Did you know that this destructive over interest in spreading rumors reflects a low opinion of ourselves and proves to others we can't be trusted? Give the gift of trust by putting an end to gossip and focus on what needs to be changed in you. II Thessalonians 3:11-13

Did you know that unforgiveness is wishing for a different past? That's right and the past is something you are powerless to change. Forgiveness, however, is a wonderful gift to give. If you've been forgiven and you recall that hurting people hurt people, forgiveness is much easier to "return." So today learn about The Lord's healing love for your wounds and forgiveness of your past, so you can forgive others, forget mistakes and avoid losing the ones you love. Inspired by Luke 23:34

Are you over-thinking your Christmas plans? Let it go! Those fixated thoughts are warring for your attention so you can’t experience God’s activity in your life today let alone on Christmas. When it's all said and done whatta ya gonna remember about it next year??? Nothing is worth your awareness of Him and His love for you. It's time to chill.

Luke 10:38-42

Please, tell me again, God! God has a call on your life and it's in your heart. He didn't change His mind about it either. He's the same yesterday, today and forever and so is His call and vision for your life. If things don't make sense right now let us help you understand why it's so important to keep referring back to your vision.

Numbers 23:19

One of the greatest reliefs but hardest thing to do is to forgive yourself. Memories of how we've hurt others are some of the greatest sufferings there is. BUT you are never without hope of restoration. God is ALWAYS willing to restore EVERYTHING back to you including the chance to begin again and your joy. I John 1:9

Jesus loves you, He is moved by compassion for you, and He hears your sincere cries for help. He also wants you to run to Him as your escape hatch from the world's problems instead of to lust, drug/alcohol abuse, food or unhealthy relationships. He is close to the brokenhearted, SO willing to help and has hope to give you for your future. Judges 16:17

Why are you so hard on yourself? Being PErfeCt isn't possible but doing your best is! Today we want to remind you that not only is God's grace your greatest gift but the best relief from the unrealistic expectations you put on yourself and on others to be perfect. Romans 12:1-5 and Micah 6:6-8
