It is much easier to be critical than to be correct; to be condemning than empowering. Resist the easy path of being judgmental and live with the measure of grace for others that you receive daily from God.

God has a way of giving us what we need in very unexpected ways. So don’t look for your blessing to come from familiar sources. Be open to a new path of provision.
God is the creator and source of all that is true love. True love is unconditional, unmerited, and unlimited. We can’t buy it, earn it, demand it. It is a pure gift, freely given, and freely received. True love considers the best interests of the other and does what is loving. When we say, “I love you” do we mean it?
Do not ignore your anger. Anger can be a sign to let us know that something in our life needs changing and anger can be part of the energy needed to make a change.
Trust is imperative in a good relationship. It is essential in honest communication. Distrust can be an important warning sign that you need to step back look and listen, even delay some of your actions until you understand your feelings.
It has been said that ‘You gain strength, courage, and confidence every time you face your fears.’ I think you also gain spiritual muscles every time you face your fears with your faith establishing your living witness of God’s power working in your life.
“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” Hebrews 11:1
Sometimes we go through a day without hoping for anything. Exercise your faith and make a mental list of what you are have hope for today. Stay ready to praise as what you hope for is manifested!
You may be experiencing some challenges right now in your life. Know that God has an escape plan and an elevation plan. So turn your eyes away from the storm and your ears toward heaven and listen for Divine instructions for your escape and elevation. You are going to rise above this storm.
Sometimes we are our own stumbling block. We allow doubt, fear, insecurities, etc. to settle in our minds and keep us from moving forward. Our greatest weapon in moments like these is prayer. To be honest though in moments of self sabotage we often cannot pray for ourselves. So we need prayer in advance and without ceasing. We all need someone to pray for us daily. Make sure you are daily praying for someone and ask someone to daily pray for you.
Remembering loved ones who have passed on is a way of honoring how they live on in those who loved them. Do not hesitate to mourn their passing it is an act of love. Be sure to grieve it is an act of learning how your life goes on.
