Change is inevitable. Think back to your first day of school. Can you remember the excitement? The nerves? Look how many changes have taken place in your life since that day. Perhaps you've changed jobs recently or even your address. A new house can be filled with wonderful new possibilities. A fresh start. Maybe a …
Category: A Moment to Reflect
These are SHORT encouraging posts to remind you to take a moment to reflect on God and what He’s doing in your life.
A Moment to Reflect – Rescue
Sometimes there is only silence. Your heart is heavy. Your body aches. Tears soak your pillow throughout the night. You have no words. You're not even sure if you can pray right now. God will meet you there. When you don't have the strength to reach out to Him, He will reach out to you. …
A Moment to Reflect – Silence
Sometimes you're met with silence when you go to God. You wonder if you're praying wrong or if God is mad at you. You may even begin to doubt that He cares or worse, that He even exists. Oh, dear soul, don't entertain those lies from the enemy or let them torment you in those …
A Moment to Reflect – Waiting on God
Sometimes you need to wait. As hard as it may be, you can't force things to happen the way you want or because you think you're ready for them. God knows your heart and when you're ready to receive what He has for you. Maybe you compare this feeling to standing in front of the …
A Moment to Reflect – Loneliness
If you're struggling with loneliness today, know this: you may feel lonely, but you are not alone. God promised He would never leave you. And God always keeps His promises. Maybe someone has hurt you, broken promises that have broken a part of you. Maybe you've pushed people away because of that pain. God can …
A Moment to Reflect – Overwhelmed
When it seems there are too many things coming against you - physical issues, damaged relationships, emotional scars you never dealt with, discouragement, financial stress - you can feel overwhelmed. There's so much pressing against you that it's hard to breathe. It's as if you're holding your breath while running a marathon that's taking place …
A Moment to Reflect – Home
Sometimes you just have to push back the pain, the heartache, and all of the struggling and remember where you're headed. One day you'll see Jesus face to face and all of the sadness and pain of this world will have faded like the setting sun as you bask in the light of His glorious …
A Moment to Reflect – Comfort
Your comfort is not a compass for your direction or the steps you should take. Maybe you may feel so uncomfortable about a person or a situation, but no one else does, so you consider sticking around. Don't assume you're imagining it or there's something wrong with you. The Holy Spirit may be stirring this …
One Moment
You may only have a moment - one spectacular moment tucked into your busy day. Maybe you'll be stuck in traffic or waiting on a loved one who's at a doctor's appointment. Perhaps the moment will sneak up on you while you catch your breath after mowing the lawn as the wind cools the sweat …
A Moment to Reflect – Trust
Trust. It's a hard thing to do after you've been hurt. You might feel like it's easier, safer to withdraw and pull yourself back. And for a time, maybe that's true. But after awhile, something starts to happen. The safety of the walls you've put up to protect yourself from being hurt again start to …
