Rise & Shine!

Arise and Shine! ~ Inspirational Quotes ~

We cannot be passive if we ever want to do anything. We need to first arise and not be lackadaisical if we ever want to shine.

There's a 19-year-old girl named Mirra Andreeva who just won the French Open. I liked how she thanked other people who helped her along the way, but finished by saying, "Last but not least, I want to thank myself."

This girl had to rise up and find the courage not to give up when times get hard in order to shine! She recognized that she needed to thank herself, too, for not giving up.

Our Bible verse says. “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you. Isaiah 60:1 NIV

We need to do our part and arise, knowing that God's Spirit living in us will give us what we need to shine.

Rise and Shine!

You Decide

Your mind stands guard at the door of your heart, and you get to decide what comes through. ~ Active Christianity Quotes ~

We can decide what we allow in our hearts. It's up to us not to let negative thoughts rule our minds.

Our Bible verses say. Don't let your hearts be troubled. John 14:1. Do not let your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. Stop allowing yourselves to be agitated and disturbed, and do not permit yourselves to be fearful and intimidated and cowardly and unsettled. John 14:27 AMP

There you have it! We have a choice in how we choose to live.

Your mind stands guard at the door of your heart, and you get to decide what comes through.

Be Still

Keep Calm and Trust God ~ Relax Quotes ~

I believe we would be less stressed if we kept calm and trusted God more. It's so easy to get into our heads and wonder why something happened or how something is going to work out.

Our Bible verse says. “Be still, and know that I am God. Psalm 46:10

This verse is something we should put into practice. Be still and know that God is God! We can put our trust in Him.

Keep Calm and Trust God.

God's Word

God's Word Gives Life. ~ God's Word Quotes ~

God's word gives us strength, power, and hope. We do need physical food to live, but to really live an overcoming life, we need spiritual food. God's word gives us that.

Our Bible verse says. Jesus answered, "Scripture says, 'A person cannot live on bread alone but on every word that God speaks.'" Matthew 4:4 GWT

We can't really live an overcoming life only on bread alone. We need every word that God speaks in the Bible.
