Have you looked at all your disappointments, anxieties from the past? I was just thinking, that despite all the problems I've had in my life, I still stand here today- I really believe in the saying, "And this too shall pass". The hardest part of dealing with hard times is to accept the fact that you are supposed to come out of it, having learned something- even Jesus did not get to sit beside the Lord without shedding blood, tears and being hungry, so who are we then to complain that life is hard when we were given life?
Last year there were so many disappointments in my life, so many things went wrong but you know, for every delay, every failure, every mishap, I see now how God used those incidents to position me in a spot to receive bountiful blessings. I believe in the power of prayer, not anxiety or fear. I believe in the power of asking, don't ask God why something has NOT happened for you when you haven't asked him to make it happen.
Ask and ye shall receive in his time which is the best time.
Another thought to ponder...how are you using the gifts God has given you to glorify God? Use your blessings, testimones and talents to draw others to God.

mmmm 'Berry!

You speak words of wisdom.

I will also like to ask EVERYONE TO PRAISE GOD with me for EVERYTHING that He has allowed in my life and DONE for me and to me to bring me to the place I am in today. OF A TRUTH ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD TO THEM THAT LOVE GOD AND TO THEM WHO ARE THE CALLED ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSE. FATHER THANK YOU FOR CALLING US ACCORDING TO YOUR PURPOSE, FOR TEACHING US THE HIDDEN PRECEPTS OF YOUR WORD AND RELEASING YOUR GRACE THAT TURNS EVERY SITUATION IN OUR LIVES AROUND FOR OUR GOOD in JESUS' MIGHTY AND MATCHLESS NAME AMEN.
