​Good morning everyone,
 
In addition to the importance of beginning again each day, it’s wise to make good choices in the morning. Choices that will guide our day in the right direction with whatever comes our way. Like it is said, life is really like a box of chocolates, and we really don’t know what will come our way each day, so we have to try our best to grow in Jesus name to gain strength from God with wisdom and understanding to get through things.  Let’s make wise choices each day with the strength of God so we can have productive and peaceful days and able to endure whatever is placed in front of us.
 
We do control our decisions and actions and the choices that we make are key factors in how our day will turn out.  I know life can get tough but most situations we don’t even have control over so why worry, why stress and why get all caught up with something that we can’t control. The only thing we can do is deal with it and pray to God to give us what we need to get through it all.   If things happen, work it out and make the best out of the situation. 
 
All I’m saying is take life as a gift from God and thank God each day for giving us a second chance.  Each day we awaken to a second chance and when we know that we should be able to make a wise choice to be happy to live through whatever it is because He’s working in our lives and to trust that God is with us every step of the way on our journey.
 
I hope and pray that everyone has a good day and we know that God is with us and most importantly, make our choices worthwhile so that we can get a positive start to serve each day and give hope to the world.
 
Amen and Amen. Thank You Lord.

Hello everyone,
​
Today is a new day and tomorrow is gone.  One thing that God has taught me is to know the importance of beginning again each day with love and faith.  God gives us His grace each day to begin again so we should never hold on to anything that will stop us from having joy and peace in life. We’re here to be disciples and to serve each other by loving, forgiving and being a light for all to see Jesus in us so let’s take one day at a time and start fresh each day.
 
One thing that I know is we all have faults, and nobody is perfect so when we interact with one another, let’s remind ourselves of that each day.  All of us are trying to walk on this journey the best way we know how with whatever we’re dealing with so let’s not allow anything or anyone to change what God has called us to do but instead give hope to one another to Build the Body of Christ.
 
Sometimes life is tough but when it gets tough, this is when God is working in our lives.  When life appears to be bad, it really may be good at that time and I know that’s true because if we look back on our lives when we were going through bad times, we will see that those times weren’t too bad and something good came out of it. 
 
What I’m saying is don’t sweat the small stuff and when life hits you with a curve, get up by gaining strength from God and knowing that He has a plan for your life.  If everything was good in life, how can we learn to grow, how can we learn to love more and how can we forgive so that others can witness God’s love.  God has a plan for all of us so let’s be a vessel by seeing through God lenses so that we all can grow and begin again each day.
 
Amen and Thank You Lord

The best gift in life is Jesus Christ.  We need to thank God for His Grace and Mercy each day and don’t ever take that for granted.  Each day on our journey is a gift and a new life.  Tomorrow is not promised, and God is the one keeping us alive every day.  Life has its ups and downs, and we have to know how to deal with whatever comes our way.  I don’t know about you, but I get strength from the Lord to get through trials and tribulations and we all need to know how to bounce back through hard times.  The way to get back and stand on our feet again after bad situations is to Let Go and Let God.

It’s not easy to let go and let God because we have to know who God is and have faith and trust in Him.  The way to do that is to pray, read the word and to spend quality time with Him.  Once we do that, we will see our life change for the best.   Sometimes we tend to think if we do that, others will look at us different.  We don’t have time to worry about what other people think.  God said humble yourself, work to be holy and follow the mission by loving your neighbor as you love yourself, forgive and just work towards being the best that we can be to serve.

Life is short and we all have witnessed things to know that, but God has allowed us to still be here for a second chance to live.  Let’s thank God for that and begin again today not tomorrow.  There’s so much to be thankful for, there’s so much to gain by having peace and joy and there’s so much love to give especially to those who need it the most.  Life is all about choices, having faith, being humble and giving hope to others. It's a sacrifice because when we put God first, we don’t think about ourselves but think about serving and sharing Gods love with one another.

I don’t know where you are in your life but think about what God wants for you and how you can get there.  I know for me; I need that quality time with God, and I need to refresh my relationship with Him all the time to stay focused and be the person that I think He wants me to be.  I’m going to end with saying I love you; God loves you and there’s nothing in this world that can change the love that God has for you.  He wants the best for all of us so let’s start today by accepting the grace and mercy and letting go and letting God.

Amen and Thank You Lord.

​Hello everyone,

Today we’re going to talk about love and forgiveness and how important it is to understand it all while we’re on our journey.

The other day, I had mentioned how love is the core of keeping us all together. Well, it goes deeper than that because it helps us to grow, gives hope to the world and helps us to get to heaven. 

There are so many bible verses that explain love and in Corinthians 13:4-5, it talks about love is patient, kind, does not envy, not boast, not proud, doesn’t dishonor others, not self-seeking and not easily angered. That is just one that came to my mind and there are so many more.  When we love, we do it willingly, when we love, we don’t hold on to grudges when someone does us wrong and when we love, we want the best for others.  Love is never jealous and it’s simply giving of yourself without wanting nothing in return. 

There are so many people who need love and sometimes people get into a zone of doing things for so long that they don’t know how to get out of wrongdoing.  Sometimes people go through things that hurt them and they don’t know how to respond after painful situations and sometimes people just don’t know how to love.  I can go on and on, but the bottom line is people need love and when we love, we give hope, we prepare ourselves for great things and we allow God to work in our lives.  Love is really a sacrifice, and it helps the entire Body of Christ because when we do wrong to others and not love them, they in return may do that to others. WE DON’T WANT TO DAMAGE THE BODY OF CHRIST.  The goal is to be a disciple and change the world by showing everyone Jesus in us and allowing our light to shine.

It’s amazing how love can change our lives and the lives of others.  I can truly say if God didn’t love me, I don’t know where I would be today.  Love also gives us peace, joy and takes off stress from our lives.  Try loving by being humbled, seeing through God lenses to know that it’s not about us but about serving on our journey.

When we love, we also should show forgiveness.  If we’re not showing forgiveness, we’re not loving. I have to say that when we forgive, it helps the other person, but it mainly helps us (The one who forgives) because we’re showing God’s love and we’re doing what God asked us to do.  Also, when we forgive and love, we’re building The Body of Christ.  Forgiveness and love have so many benefits and it helps so many people.  Let’s think about it, God gave us a mission to be a disciple and to serve Him by helping others and giving hope to the world.  How can we do that without love and forgiveness?  God loves and forgives us so let’s love and forgive one another through our actions.

​Amen and Thank You Jesus
