Nothing To Prove

People are going to believe what they want anyway, so why waste time trying to plead your case? As long as you know the truth, that's what matters. It should never be your problem if people are too stupid to get the facts.

Psalms 37:4

This is one of my favorite Bible verses because it's simple: If I serve God, he will give me my heart's desire. Part of serving God is obeying whatever he tells me to do, regardless of whether it makes sense or not. I try to follow this verse because I refuse to miss what God had for me.

“Do what the Lord wants, and he will give you your heart's desire.”
Psalms 37:4 CEV https://t.co/dAkRF7T9oH

Today's Thought: Knowing Christ vs. Relationship With Him

The below caption is self-explanatory. You can know about Christ, but without a relationship with Him, knowledge is nothing.

Running The House From Jail/Prison

This is a good topic for discussion. Can a man still be head of the house while incarcerated? My answer is no because a leader is hands-on; he's there to lead by example. Yes, he may make sure his family is taken care of financially, but he's not there for key events in his child(ren)'s life. I see why most people say when a parent is incarcerated, the family serves their sentence with them. The incarcerated parent misses out on a lot, and it's tough on children who have to see their parent from behind bars. At the same time, the child learns what NOT to do. They learn from their parent's mistake(s) that landed them behind bars, and hopefully won't repeat the cycle. It's tough to lead from behind bars.

Press Your Way To Victory

When I'm going through hard times, I think about verses like this. It gives me the strength to go harder, knowing there's a major blessing on the other side. Easier said than done, especially when you're constantly being tried. I would hate to give up, miss my blessing and have to start over.

When you see the blessing God has for you it will make sense to the battle you went through! Keep pressing!
