Simple Truths To Repeat When You’re In A Spiritual Battle:

U need 2 hold the image u want of urself, in ur mind, so strongly that other ppl see it too. Everything u need is already inside of u. U know what u need 2 do. So look inside and stop seeking it outside

Someone else's success does not equal your own failure.

Remember the downfall of Samson with Delilah. Little by little, piece by piece, he gave himself away and turned devotion into other things, not God. He didn’t just fall the moment his hair was cut and the covenant was broken. He fell the moment his heart stopped being devoted to God.

Devotion and living for God starts at the core of the heart. The core of the heart steers the reins that determine your direction.

Christ said that the greatest commandment is the love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength. Where are you devoting your heart, soul, mind, and strength today?

“All this achievement and accomplishment that you focus on is fine, but remember, the most important thing about you is something that someone else accomplished on your behalf. You are a child of the living God, and He paid for your sins with his blood. He gave you a room in His Father’s house. To God, YOU are the most important thing in the universe.”

📝 - @amy_klutinoty ⇠ follow! . The Apostle Paul’s prayer for the thorn to be removed from his life, wasn’t necessarily denied by God, it just wasn’t answered the way he expected. . “My grace is sufficient for you", God compassionately replied. “My power is made perfect in weakness.” . You know, I wonder if Paul let out a heavy sigh after hearing God’s response. Yes, we know Paul’s response was to say, “Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” But…even still…the process leading up to that moment was not an easy one for Paul. . He didn’t receive the answer I am sure he was hoping for, but we have learned through his story that; what may be a hardship to us, is an invitation to God. What we so often consider a “no” from God, can actually be translated into an invitation to better understand who He is. . God could have removed this “thorn”, but then Paul would have missed out on the sweet revelation and strength of God’s sustaining grace. He became even closer to God which was inevitably what he needed all along. More of God is always the answer. . I urge you today to take a moment to consider this truth in your own life. Is there a prayer you have written off as a “no” from God, and have thrown into your inventory of disappointments? . Could it be that He is extending the same offer to you as He did to Paul? To better know Him and personally experience His redeeming grace? God may not always remove the tough circumstance, but rest assure, He will strengthen you by His grace to endure and finish the race. — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2Mbnd1f

saw a post saying “dont beg men to love you” and thats absolutely true but i have an addition i dont want to add to the post and Derail. but dont beg ANYONE to love you. im serious. not just romantically. not parents, friends, family, and especially not significant others. if you find yourself having to beg for scraps of love its time to pack it up and move on.
