God's call often requires us to step out of our place of comfort and to be different. How can we stand up and out to shine God's light in a dark world?

Prayer is an essential part of the Christian. Join me as I share 5 things you can pray about for your day. Listen for encouragement and direction for your life.

"Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:6-7 NLT

One advantage social media influencers have over businesses that do not use social media is that the influencers are able to show the results of what they are selling. They are not only telling you to buy, but they are showing you it works for them and it will for you. A testimony is a great tool for evangelism and the case of a transformed life cannot be debated.

Ecclesiastes 9:16 says, "So even though wisdom is better than strength, those who are wise will be despised if they are poor. What they say will not be appreciated for long." Wisdom is better than strength, but people are often caught up in what they can see over what cannot be seen.

How then should we live and impact those around us for Christ? Listen for encouragement and direction for your life.

Forgiveness can be one of the difficult things to do, especially when we have been deeply offended. How can we grow in our capacity to love and overcome the battle with unforgiveness? "Love prospers when a fault is forgiven, but dwelling on it separates close friends." Proverbs 17:9

What do we do when we feel inadequate about the things God is calling us to? What should our response be to the call of God inspite of our shortcomings?

"The LORD replied, “Don't say, 'I'm too young,' for you must go wherever I send you and say whatever I tell you." Jeremiah 1:7

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. For anyone going through any form of challenge, I want to encourage your heart today. Listen for encouragement and direction for your life.

Do the litte things and remain faithful where God has called you to even when it does not look impactful. Listen for encouragement and direction for your life.
