Confession For Today

Confession for today.....Today I choose to be God focused, God minded, and God led. I purpose to submit my will and my life to the One who can go before me, to the One who is always for me, and to the One who never fails me. In Him, I am free.

Matthew 6:25 - 34 Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?'

Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life ?

“And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith?

So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

I Wanted To Tell You Something............

Hey ......that voice in your head that keeps telling you that you are a failure? Ya, well, its not worth listening too. It's a total lie.

You are not junk. You are entirely unique. No one in the world is exactly like you. Even if you have an identical twin, your fingerprints are different.

You are an incredible masterpiece. You are valuable. There is unreached potential in you just screaming to be released. That dream you have had in your heart, take step one towards it. Why not?

That voice in your head telling you that you failed before, so its not worth trying now? Tell it to shut up...then read this.

Do you know why you can have those lights on in your room right now? Thomas Edison's teachers said he was "too stupid to learn anything." He was fired from his first two jobs for being "non-productive."  As an inventor, Edison made 1,000 unsuccessful attempts at inventing the light bulb. When a reporter asked, "How did it feel to fail 1,000 times?" Edison replied, "I didn’t fail 1,000 times. The light bulb was an invention with 1,000 steps."

You know, when I started painting, it didnt look like much at all. But I didnt give up. I kept trying. I believe in God, so I also kept praying. The point is, I didnt give up. I dont want you to give up either.

You only lose if you quit. Refuse to quit. Even if it takes a 1000 steps to get there. 

Be strong. Be proactive. Be your own kind of beautiful.
