Happy Sunday 🤍

God has never failed you in the past, and He’s not going to start now. All that worry is doing is causing you to be uptight, not sleep well, run your immune system down. It’s time to serve worry an eviction notice. Let peace in. Let trust in. Let faith in.

When you can say, “God, this is what I’m believing for, this is what I’m hoping will happen, but God, even if it doesn’t work out my way, I’m still going to give You praise, I’m still going to be good to others, I’m still going to pursue my dreams.” That kind of attitude gets God’s attention. You’re saying, “God, not my will but let Your will be done.”

The enemy would love for us to get stuck: stuck in fear, stuck in anxiety, stuck letting negative images play. Those images may come, but you have to cast down the wrong imaginations. Don’t let them keep playing. When fear comes, switch over to faith.

Real wealth is waking up excited about your life.

🌿Be Still🌿 Anxiety has a way of training us. Something uncertain happens, and our minds immediately spring into action. Quick. Do something. Research it. Fix it. Prepare for every possible outcome. Carry the weight of everyone you love. Solve problems that haven’t even happened yet. For many of us, this response has been practiced for years. But God’s response is often very different. Our minds say: “Figure it out.” God says: “Trust Me.” Our minds say: “Carry everyone.” God says: “Bring them to Me.” Our minds say: “What if?” God says: “Look at what is true right now.” Perhaps that’s why being still feels so difficult. Stillness doesn’t come naturally to an anxious heart. It is learned trust. And learned trust takes practice. Every time you stop spiraling… Every time you resist rehearsing worst-case scenarios… Every time you refuse to borrow trouble from tomorrow… Every time you release a burden back into God’s hands… You are teaching your heart something new. You are building a different response. A response that says: “I don’t have to panic.” “I don’t have to solve everything.” “I don’t have to carry everyone.” “I can trust God here, too.” Not because life suddenly became certain. But because God already is. An anxious heart isn’t failing at faith. It’s simply learning, one surrender at a time, that God can be trusted with what it cannot control. And that may be one of the most courageous acts of faith there is. So many of us secretly feel like our anxiety means we’re failing God. But often we’re not failing at faith at all—we’re simply learning a new way to respond. For years, anxiety taught us: “You must carry this.” And now God is patiently teaching: “You can give it to Me.” That’s not failure. That’s growth. That’s discipleship. That’s a heart being retrained by grace. I think that’s why Exodus 14:14 is so powerful. The command to “be still” wasn’t given to people sitting safely on a beach. It was given to people standing between the Red Sea and an advancing army. Humanly speaking, panic made sense. Yet God was teaching them a lesson they would spend the rest of their lives learning: “You don’t have to save yourself. I am your Savior.” Maybe that’s the lesson many of us are still learning too. One surrendered thought. One released burden. One quiet prayer. One deep breath. One act of trust at a time. Because God never asked us to be the protector. He asked us to be His children. 💜🙏🏻 “The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.” — Exodus 14:14 Prayer: Father, You know how quickly my mind runs toward fear, worry, and worst-case scenarios. So often I try to carry burdens You never asked me to carry. I try to solve problems that belong in Your hands and protect people in ways only You can. Teach my heart a new response. When anxiety tells me to panic, help me pause. When fear tells me to control, help me trust. When worry tells me to carry everything, remind me to bring it all to You. Help me remember that I am Your child, not the protector of the world. You are already present in every situation that concerns me, and nothing catches You by surprise. Today I surrender my fears, my questions, my loved ones, and my future into Your hands. Retrain my heart to rest in Your faithfulness and find peace in Your presence. And when I forget, gently remind me again and again that I do not have to carry what You are already holding. Teach me to return to You more quickly, trust You more deeply, and rest in You more fully. One surrendered thought. One released burden. One quiet prayer. One act of trust at a time. In Jesus Name, Amen.

Be grateful for every single thing.

No matter how far we’ve wondered the porch light is always left on for us. God bless y’all & goodnight. 💗

When you take steps of faith, some people won’t understand; they may find fault, try to talk you out of it. But God didn’t put the thirst in them. Don’t let that keep you from pursuing what God put in your heart.

The strongest people protect their peace.

Good Bless America! Happy 250 years of FREEDOM! 🇺🇸

You’re not supposed to fight every battle. If you let your emotions rule and you get upset, then you’re doing it in your own strength. There’s no grace for it. But if you’ll start inquiring of the Lord, “God, what do You want me to do? God, I need Your wisdom, Your strength, Your power.” When you show your dependency on God, He knows you’re relying on Him, then He’ll help you fight those battles. He’ll empower you to defeat giants, to break addictions, to overcome what should have stopped you.

Focus on Jesus!
