​The mission in life is to work towards being better people through the word and giving hope to the world.  Doing this process, we all make mistakes and it’s okay because this is how we grow and how we develop to be what God wants us to be on our journey.  Our hearts need to be pure and our intentions need to be right and once we know the importance of that, we will be on the road to wisdom and understanding. We definitely need wisdom because God said in Proverbs 2:2 - Turning your heart to wisdom inclines your heart to understanding.
 
Sometimes in life, there will be situations that will make us feel uncomfortable by doing the right thing but when those situations come, try to be strong because this is when God is working in our lives.  Everything we go through, we have to know how to handle or do what we can when we can because the outcome will display a positive or a negative vibe.  In communicating with others, we have to just come out and say what we mean and mean what we say to better a situation and to help people see the wisdom in what’s happening or what needs to happen to avoid a mess.
 
I know people tend to do things to be comfortable but we’re not here to be comfortable, we’re here to serve and sometimes that’s to be uncomfortable.  It’s okay to give tough love because we all benefit and it builds The Body of Christ.  We should always think before we act and try not to make the same mistake over again.  God gives us so many chances and we should value those blessings.
 
When we do the right thing even in uncomfortable situations, we’ll see the goodness that will come out of those actions.  We may not see things happening at the time but God said in Matthew 7:17 – Just so, every good tree bears good fruit, and a rotten tree bears bad fruit.  A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a rotten tree bear good fruit.
 
The bottom line to this daily word of wisdom today is – Never let a situation or people think you have to do the opposite of what you feel in your heart or what God calls you to do because in the end, we’ll be dealing with situations like that over and over again and God is working in our lives to help us to grow.  I think this is why we encounter good and bad situations before us to get better and learn how to handle the next situation. Otherwise, the world would be perfect.  Let’s not allow situations to stress us out or take over but know that we’re human and we have to let go and let God and learn how to manage stress in situations so that we can keep it moving with love, patience and joy. 
 
God loves us very much so let’s not go backwards from mistakes that we’ve made but go forward by doing what’s on our hearts even if it calls us to be uncomfortable. 
 
Amen and Thank You Jesus

​Hello everyone,

​I’m back from vacation and I thank God for giving me time to reflect on His goodness, His love and His divine mercy.  We should never take life for granted because it’s the little things that keep us going like being appreciative of all of the blessings like still living, being humble to know that we’re blessed and being thankful for all things.  I had the opportunity to think, to relax and to just appreciate the goodness of our Lord.
 
It was wonderful because it was time spent with others and having the opportunity to just chill and spend some quality time with myself.   God is such a wonderful God so we should never stress out about things but give Him the praise all the time.  This journey is all about serving Him and being dependent on Him at all times.  Sometimes we get so caught up when things don’t go our way and sometimes we get caught up with people.  We have to realize that we should only be in control over our own actions and let people be people.  Let’s not be selfish because there’s so much to be thankful for each day.  We all have to answer to God so it’s not our job to worry about what others are doing, have done or didn’t do.  Let’s just do our part with love and forgiveness and God will do the rest.  This is how you keep stress away and able to have joy in life.
 
God has a plan and always a way so never worry but trust Him at all times.  Even when things don’t happen when we want it to happen, please know that God sees and knows everything and He knows us better than we know ourselves.  Walk on your journey with faith and know that whatever happens, it’s a plan and everyday God is working in our lives and other people lives as well.
 
Never allow others to take away from your joy, don’t make it harder for yourself and always know that God is with you.  If we continue to love, we will witness His goodness and have a major impact on the world and the entire Body of Christ.
 
Let’s continue to pray for others and ourselves so that we all can have joy and taste and see God’s goodness.
 
Amen and Thank You Lord

Hello everyone,

I hope everyone is okay.  I'm on vacation so I won't be sending wisdoms this week but know that I'm still thinking about you and love you very much.  Please know that you're in my prayers and please pray for me as well.  I'm going to the beach and will return on Monday. I'm planning to do some reflection on the beach.

If  you like, please utilize the archives for other wisdoms and words from the Lord. Amen and Thank You Jesus.

​We all get second chances in life and it’s such a blessing to be given another opportunity to live.  Each day we awaken, God is giving us another day on our journey.  God also gives us choices to do whatever we want to do as well. It’s very important that we value the second chance because it’s short and we should make the best out of what we were given by God. 
 
We all have a story of what we’ve been through, what we’re going through and obstacles that we have to face or consequences that we’re dealing with from our actions but it all balls down to how are we going to handle situations? How are we interacting with others? How are we conducting ourselves? And how are we living out the mission set by God.
 
God has a plan and He loves us very much but we have to do our part too.  He wants the best for us and He’s the only one who can help us grow and be better people.  Life is full of stuff and it’s not going to be good all the time.  We should listen more and really see what He’s trying to do in our lives.
 
I say it all the time that it’s a blessing to have trials and tribulations because this is how we grow when we learn from experiences or have to deal with things.  Some situations are hard to handle but this is why we need God to help us through things and keep standing with our heads held high.  We don’t control others so let’s not allow others to control us.  Let’s love one another, give our burdens to God and keep it moving.  This will bring us peace and allow God to work in our lives. 
 
Remember, we were given a second chance and it’s not about what we’ve been through but more about how are we handling situations to still allow our light to shine and be a vessel for God.
 
Amen and Thank You Lord.

If we all take time out and look at our lives, we can really see the blessings given by God.   God is doing so much in our lives and it’s so easy to complain, to think we’re not doing well or to not see the goodness around us.  I’ve done it and I know you’ve done it too at some point in your life.  It’s only human to do that because we all have to grow in wisdom and understanding to even know what that is all about.
 
The world is full of crazy things and the struggle is real but we as people have to understand that there’s a God that loves us, takes care of us, watches over us and still through our faults, blesses us each and every day.  We all have things that we’re dealing with but each day is a new day and God is working to help us one day at a time through His unconditional love, forgiveness and so much more.  The most important things in our lives that we should never lose are 1)the connection with God 2)our faith 3)to love our neighbor and 4)to treat people the way we would want to be treated.  If we always remember that and practice that, we should be fine and if we do something that’s against that, try and communicate to fix it because God knows our hearts and we all make mistakes.
 
What we go through in life is just temporary but we have to trust God to handle things that we encounter on our journey.  He said “Give me your burdens and I will give you rest”.  That means when something happens in your life that you think you can’t handle, just let go and let God.  You have to remember that God knows what’s going to happen before it happens and He said He will never leave us so why are we stressed out or worrying about things?  This in when your faith comes in and this is when you will see His Glory when you trust Him. 
 
Let me tell you something, whatever you’re dealing with, please know that this too shall pass.  This world is all about good and evil and when we trust God and stay on His side, He will always work it out.  We may have to go through some things at times but even through the bad times, we have to stand firm and know who’s in charge. All He asks us to do is love because He is love and that's the core of getting through life.  See when the Praises go up, the Blessings rain down.  Let’s not get caught up in the world or ourselves and know that Jesus already paid the price by walking with the cross and sacrificing for all of us so that we may live.  Let’s not lose that but use that knowledge to grow within, to serve and to Build The Body of Christ. 
 
The bottom line is this - We’re here to work towards holiness and to make it to heaven.  God knows where we all are in our lives so we shouldn’t judge but look at our own self and work towards fixing what is broken and give hope to our neighbors to become more like Him as well.  It’s all about allowing our light to shine.  God wants us to have peace, joy and happiness and that only comes from God so even though we all have things in our lives that we’re dealing with, faults that we need to work on, situations that we don’t know how we’re going to get out of, let’s remember that there’s a God and we’re still blessed with what we have today not what we think we’re going to have tomorrow.  Again, if we all take time out and look at our lives through the good and the bad, we’ll be able to see the blessings and continue to be appreciative of the divine mercy set by God.
 
So let’s make this day a new day, be thankful and enjoy life with whatever we have on our plate, trust that God is with us and Be Blessed.  If you have time, check out the link.  Love you all.

​It’s very important that we take care of things when we can. For example, we should always be aware of our bodies and what’s happening with us mentally and physically.
 
 
There are many who are not with us today because he or she ignored signs of what’s happening in their lives or put things off and said things like - I’ll get to it later or I’ll do that tomorrow. Remember God said what you can do tomorrow, you can do today because tomorrow is not promised.
 
 
I’m dealing with this in my own life. I’ve always been the peacemaker and try to help others and don’t get me wrong, I love doing that but it’s also times when I have to take care of me and make sure I’m good mentally and physically. To be honest, this is why I do the wisdom because I don’t want to get away from God or get disconnected because when we get so busy, things are not that important to us anymore and our lives become chaotic.
 
 
The wisdom gives me peace and joy, it allows God to work in my life and it allows me to hear Him at times when He calls me to do certain things or how to respond in situations.  We have to stay connected all the time.  Let’s take time out and find out what we need to do to better our lives so that we can serve and most importantly become more like Jesus.
 
 
Amen and Amen
 

Being true to yourself is very important. I think sometimes we live for others and not ourselves.  How can we serve if we don’t know who we are and if we don’t be true to ourselves?  We have to know our strengths and weaknesses as well as things needed or not needed to help us to become better people to serve. 
 
I know some people don’t like to hear this but we have to be leaders not followers, we have to think for ourselves, not allow others to think for us and we have to identify our weaknesses so that we would know how to interact with others and what to do on our journey.
 
I know sometimes things happen in our lives that make us feel like we’re not confident or have low self-esteem to keep going but God gives all of us strength.  We don’t need others bringing us down but we need others to have our best interest at heart.  We have to accept the grace and stand up for ourselves.  Let’s not allow anyone to think for us but listen to the Word and God to guide us to do what we have to do in our decision making and our actions. 
 
We all have a story to tell on our journey and whether it’s good or bad, we should be the one telling it or living it not someone else.  Be true to yourself and know that God loves you very much and whatever flaws you have, learn to live with it by practicing good virtues like forgiveness, love and integrity but always follow the word and be tough when you have to.  We can’t be weak in situations and when we fall, have the confidence to get back up and start again.  If you think you can’t, ask God for strength and He will help you.
 
No one should be unhappy and we should know that happiness comes when we listen to God and be true to ourselves.
 
Amen and Thank You Lord
