Trust In The Lord

Trust in the Lord and do good…

Inspirational thoughts to brighten your life.

* When you are tired and feel like you can't go on, that you can't take one more step, that's when God will pick you up and carry you through whatever difficulty you're facing.

One step at a time, one prayer at a time, one praise at a time, and everything will fall into place before you.

No problem or difficulty lasts forever. Things come and go. Life is like a roller coaster, but God is constant. His love for you is always there, and He will get you through any challenge that you face.

* God is never too busy for you. In fact, He is always there for you‚ just waiting for you to ask Him anything you want, and then He loves to answer your prayers.

Be not weary in well doing, for if you keep on going despite the circumstances, you will reap the rewards and be happy that you didn't give up (Galatians 6:9).

Taking time to help others is one of the most important things that you can do in life. And, in doing so, you make the Lord want to help you more as well.

* His eye never misses what we give in service to others. That means both the big things and the little things. There's nothing that escapes His gaze, and one day you'll be rewarded in full for all you have given.

* You never lose by giving, even if at times it looks like you lost. Even if you don't see any tangible results or fruit from your labors and giving here on Earth, you will receive in full in Heaven. That's something that is guaranteed.

* We're spiritual beings, not just flesh and blood. That means your spirit needs food each day, as well as your body. The Proverb is certainly true that "the spirit of a man sustains him" (Proverbs 18:14). Your spirit is what keeps the entire you going. It keeps you pressing onward; it gives you the incentive to put your body into motion. So it stands to reason that the nourishment you give your spirit each day will affect your physical body—the more spiritual nourishment, the more sustaining power for your physical body as well.

* Tired? Feel like you can't take another step or meet even one more need or demand? He knows, and He understands. He was in all points touched as we are, having experienced our human limitations (Hebrews 4:15). Therefore He's always more than ready to reach down and compassionately give you the strength you need to continue on.

* Go slow, take your time today. Enjoy this world and those around you, and you will feel more inspired about the day, and feel satisfied at the end of it.

When your day is done and you lie down to rest, set your mind on the Lord and He will take care of everything you can possibly think of, and make your sleep sweet and refreshing.

* You'll always have the strength you need for each day if you faithfully commit your day to Him. He's promised that "as thy days, so shall thy strength be" (Deuteronomy 33:25). The secret is in that simple act of dependence: giving your day to Him.

When your own strength runs out, that's when His is just beginning. He delights in showing His superior and supernatural strength. And how is it best manifested?—Through your weak and earthen vessel, that He may be glorified.

* The outlook may not always be good, but the uplook is great. Keep your eyes on the Lord and He will make everything go smoothly and efficientlly.
