Flap Your Wings

God is always working with you. God wants to see you grow and stretch yourself into the best you. Growing pains hurt, struggling is frustrating, but the maturity lessons learned are priceless.
I remember hearing, things are not happening to you, but they are happening for you; these things are there to help you come up to your highest potential.
How would you grow if everything was easy? What would you learn if there was no problem? If everything was always perfect and smooth, how would we ever develop trust in the Lord; how would we ever learn to lean on Him?
If I had no problems, then how would I see God working in my life and see His promises come to life when the problem was rectified?
We are not always supposed to be in a struggle or fight, but those crosses will come for everyone at some point. We are meant to enjoy our lives, and God wants us to live abundantly. But remember, crosses are not bad things…they are designed to make you stronger, better, wiser, more compassionate, and more beautiful.
"What the caterpillar calls the end of the world the master calls a butterfly."

  1. There is one thing in life that i have come to stand for and believe in my now adult life; God pretty much knew us(our whole life) even before were conceived and the fact that things(which is generally the struggles of life)tend to happen to everyone of us at some point in our lives we should always stand in grace and peace(very quite difficult to have when facing a storm)and know that if God sees that am capable to handle all that is coming at me then am going to do all i can 100% and leave what i can't to Him. And sure enough it won't be long before our faiths move him to act on what we are facing.
