Don't Fight Against Your Enemies

Don't argue with them. Don't cause them harm. Don't worry yourself about them. Let the LORD deal with them. If the LORD is with you, who shall be against you? 1-14-19

Psalms chapter 35
1 Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me.

Get Out Your Comfort Zone - Overcoming Stage Fright

I always felt comfortable being in the background or being behind the scenes. In places like auditoriums, or even church, I always prefer to sit in the back, where I feel comfortable. But, I believe GOD spoke to me in my spirit, and said, "in order for me to grow or become better, I had to put myself out there, and acknowledge him publicly. So, being that I'm not big on social media at the moment, I decided to create a blog called "Diary of a Christian", that I plan to write to daily, and develop a YouTube channel. In order to grow to your full potential, you will likely have to get out of your comfort zone and be uncomfortable. Therefore, I want to be obedient to what I believe the LORD is calling me to do, thus, "Diary of a Christian" was born. 1-13-19

A Tip For A Better Prayer Life

Get a box, can be any type of box, maybe a shoe box. Cut a slit into the top of the box big enough to put folded papers in. Make sure you seal the box so you can't get inside. If you buy a box, make sure you lock it. Write your prayers down on a sheet of paper, fold up the papers, then put them in the box. Never go in the box. Lastly, apply your faith, that your prayers will be answered. 1-11-2019

I know it sounds simple and easy to do, but you would be surprised of how many people don't do this simple little trick. Write your goals down on a sheet of paper.

It helps keep you focus and on track, as a constant reminder that you need to get it done. As you complete your goals, check them off the list. Give it a try, and see if it works for you. 1-9-19

Habakkuk 2:2-3
2 And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.

3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.

Everything Happens for a Reason

Everything happens for a reason. Everything has a time and a season and GOD's always in control. GOD allow things to happen, but in the end, it's all for the greater good. We may not be able to see it, or understand it from our perspective, because GOD's wisdom greatly supersedes ours. Sometimes tragedy can make us stronger, help us avoid a greater tragedy down the road, or even put us in a position to help others. We have to trust in him, have faith, and don't let situations or events heavily consume us, especially the ones we have no control over. 1-8-19
