Whatever it is...

Every single day of your life is different... breaking news right? So... don't expect today to be exactly the same as yesterday. Each day comes with challenges and victories, but at the start of the day, when you wake up, you don't know what exactly is coming your way (even if you have some idea) or how things will pan out. So, whatever it is for you each day, don't hesitate to confront it or face it with boldness and gratitude. Every challenge is an opportunity for grace to shine. Every victory is an opportunity for praise and gratitude to abound. Whatever it is.... make it count for that day!

Whenever you are feeling defeated, overwhelmed, frustrated, etc., please remember that every uncertainty is an opportunity for praise so that you won't be overcome by whatever it is. Even the Word of God reminds us that there will be trying times (valleys) yet we are to be confident through those times... and not to be intimidated or fearful for we are not alone. "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me." (Psalm 23:4)

You are to be confident no matter what: "For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control." (2 Timothy 1:7) You are not a victim... don't ever give anyone that power over you! After all, you will one day get a chance to tell the story and never know who you will encourage, because you overcame.

You don't need to walk around with your heard bowed down in fear or with your nose stuck up with arrogance... there is a balance that you need to find as you walk with boldness and a humble heart. Walking in full assurance of who you are and whose you are. Whatever it is... its already taken care of! Today, remember to walk in the freedom and power of grace that abounds each and every morning when you wake up. When you go to bed, remember to reflect and give thanks for whatever it is...
