Find Out For Yourself

By Kay Heitsch

I know God is working, so I smile. ~ God Is Good Quotes ~

It's amazing how life changes when you have seen for yourself how God is working. Then, no matter what happens, you can smile because you know God is good and He is working.

Our Bible verse says, "Find out for yourself how good the LORD is. Happy are those who find safety with Him." Psalm 34: 8 GNT

We need to find out for ourselves how good the LORD is. Then, once we do, no matter what we go through, we will take our safety in Him.

I know God is working, so I smile.

What Not Why

By Kay Heitsch

Don't ask God why He's allowing something to happen. Ask Him what He wants you to learn and do in the midst of it. ~ Inspirational Quotes ~

This is what I did after Todd died. For some reason, I didn't ask why. Instead, I asked what am I suppose to do now. When we face trouble in life, and we all do, we can trust God to show us what to learn and what He wants us to do.

Our Bible verses say, Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek His will in all you do, and He will show you which path to take. Proverbs 3: 5&6 NLT

The best way to live is to trust the LORD with all of our hearts. But, of course, we can't depend on what we think we may know. We don't see the big picture. But, we can seek His will, and He will show us the best path to take.

Don't ask God why He's allowing something to happen. Instead, ask Him what He wants you to learn and do in the midst of it.

Number One Focus

By Kay Heitsch

Make your relationship with God your number one focus. Know that if you take care of that, God will take care of everything else. ~ Inspirational Quotes ~

There's a difference between knowing about God and knowing God. With religion, you learn about God, but knowing God is not about religion; it's about becoming more intimately acquainted with Him in every area of your life.

Our Bible verse says, For my determined purpose is to know Him that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him. Philippians 3:10

If knowing God is our determined purpose, we will have a deep intimate relationship with Him. What a way to live!

Make your relationship with God your number one focus. Know that if you take care of that, God will take care of everything else.

Execution Is Essential

By Kay Heitsch

Don't ask God to guide your footsteps if you're unwilling to move your feet. ~ Execution is Essential Quotes ~

If we genuinely want to follow God's pathway in our lives, we must be willing to move our feet. We can't sit around idle and live in wishful thinking. I wish this, or I want to do that. We need to move our feet.

Our Bible verse says, "The LORD says, "I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you." Psalm 32:8 NLT

The LORD says He will guide us along the best pathway for our lives. We can rest assured that He will advise and watch over us along the way.

Don't ask God to guide your footsteps if you're unwilling to move your feet.

Try Not To Confuse The Two

By Kay Heitsch

Life is hard, but God is good. Try not to confuse the two. ~ Anne E. Beiler Quote ~

I like this quote! Sometimes we confuse the terrible things that happen in our life as God's fault.

I am thankful after Todd died, I could see the difference. I started to see that God was good and He could bring something positive out of Todd's death. I began to trust Him to give me the strength to move forward in life no matter how hard life was.

Our Bible verse for today. God is the only one who can make the valley of trouble a door of hope. Hosea 2:15

Yes, I know God can make whatever trouble we are going through a door of hope. He did it for me, and He can do it for you.

Life is hard, but God is good. Try not to confuse the two.

Who Cares? God Cares!

By Kay Heitsch

God cares about every area of our lives, and God wants us to ask for help. ~ Dr. Ben Carson Quote ~

Who cares? God cares! He cares about every area of our lives. No matter how big or small our concern, He is there to help. All we need to do is to ask.

Every morning, before I put anything on the computer, I ask God for His help! I have no idea what to write or what Bible verse to use, but when I ask for help, something will stick out, and that is what I post.

Our Bible verse says, "My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth." Psalm 121:2 NIV

The LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth, cares about us. He is our help in everything we need.

God cares about every area of our lives, and God wants us to ask for help.

Who cares? God cares!

You Can

By Kay Heitsch

Whether you think you can or you think you can't, you're right. ~ Henry Ford Quote

This last week we took Eli to Greenfield Village. This is also the location of the Henry Ford Museum. At the gift shop, they had T-shirts with the above quote printed on them. I thought of Todd when I saw the quote because Todd had this quote written in his journey.

Our Bible verse says, "I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength." Philippians 4:13 BSB

No matter what we are called to do, we can do it through Christ, who will give us His strength. What we need to do is to get our thinking going in the right direction.

Whether you think you can or you think you can't, you're right.
