Don't be stopped!

I understand that your heart is broken. You’re sad. I get it. But don’t let that stop you from living your life. Get out of bed every morning. Do your makeup. Smile. Get through the day. And whenever you don’t feel up to it, just look at the boy who did this to you. Do you think he cried himself to sleep last night? Probably not. As a matter of fact, I’ll bet you that he’s doing just fine. So when you wake up and you feel like laying in bed all day, just remember that he has other plans.
girl, live your life, in spite of him.

THOUGHTS FROM EPHESIANS~19 GOD'S INCOMPARABLE POWER

A meditation on Ephesians 1:19

God's power is 'incomparably great' [Ephesians 1:19] – it is beyond comparison because there is no other power in heaven or on earth that can come anywhere near it. Like God himself there is nothing up there on that level that we can say 'God's power is like this.' Like God himself, his power is one of a kind. Read Isaiah 40:18,25.

Paul states that God's power is 'for us who believe'. This is an amazing and totally comforting thing. This awesome, incomparable power is on our side. It is active for us. It is not against us. All that God did in and through the incarnation and life of Christ, and through his death and resurrection was done for us, with us and our eternal well-being in mind. All the defeat of sin, death and Satan that his power achieved was done for us. All the amazing work of regeneration, redemption and renewal – all of the power of God that brought this about … was active for us.

Paul prays that we will continue to know this power of Christ increasingly. It is not that Paul prays that we will have this power available to us as our personal power, but that we will understand the greatness of God's power active for us in the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Paul further describes this power of God active for believers as 'like the working of his mighty strength which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given …' [Ephesians 1:19-21].

This same power of God that raised Christ from death to life, from weakness and defeat to extreme glory and victory, is active for every believer. It is this same power of God that has raised the Christian believer out of spiritual deadness and separation from God into newness of life and permanent acceptance into the very presence of God [Ephesians 2:1-7]. Nothing of our own ability or works achieved this – but only the life-giving, incomparable power of God.

Because our salvation is entirely the result of the power of God active for us, it is also entirely a gift of his grace. If it took this incomparable power to bring us out of the clutches of spiritual death and into life in the presence of God, how ludicrous for us to think that our own actions can contribute even a miniscule part towards either gaining or maintaining our salvation.

How ludicrous also to think, even for a moment, that any action of ours can undermine or diminish our salvation, when all of this 'incredibly great power' of God, is active for us!

If we will begin to exalt Jesus by giving Him first place in our everyday lives—listening, obeying and doing what He shows us to do—we won’t be exhausted.

Falling

I believe I'm falling... and I believe you may be falling with me....

Don't be scared that you wont find anyone else who will love you, because you will, when the time is right.

Too often, the thing you want most is the one thing you can’t have. Desire leaves us heartbroken, it wears us out. Desire can wreck your life. But as tough as wanting something can be, the people who suffer the most are those who don’t know what they want.

Your YOU

Don’t hide yourself in regret
Just love yourself and you’re set
I’m on the right track baby
I was born this way

I’m beautiful in my way
‘cause god makes no mistakes
I’m on the right track baby
I was born this way

rUNNING

If you run away from me, I’m not running after you (cause I’m so tired).
If you turn away from this don’t look back (cause I’ll be gone).

If you go then I’ll forget you.
When you’re gone I won’t miss you.
I’m sorry that’s just the way I’ve learned to deal with a broken heart.
……and broken promises.

Positive thinking

We are all blessed! Only some of us choose to see it a different way and think of only the negative... 

THINK POSITIVE!
