Relationship With God: Personal, Not Public

 Your relationship with God is personal, not public. Folks can talk all day about being a Christian, but if the walk doesn’t line up with the talk, it makes one look crazy. Note: I know believers fall short (myself included). Unbelievers would rather see an example of Jesus, than a hypocritical version of Him.

1 Kings 2:3

 “Do what the Lord your God commands and follow his teachings. Obey everything written in the Law of Moses. Then you will be a success, no matter what you do or where you go.”

Imagine…

Imagine doing for someone without caring about credit or recognition. I do my best work behind the scenes. I’ve never cared about props, notoriety or any of that nonsense.๐Ÿคท๐Ÿพ‍♂️Too many times, people want recognition for what they do or have done, and while it’s nothing wrong with receiving praise, watching the recipient shine is all the credit myself, or anyone should ever need.

Settling: Monica Regina Jones

Repost: Monica Regina Jones

Just a thought: It's good to know the great qualities you possess and all that. It's also good to know that you're not for everybody. But it's  even better to get to the place where you don't want anyone SETTLING for you. It's a good thing to get to the place of " if I'm not what you're looking for, it's ok to keep it moving". If I'm not your "type" I'm not gonna be mad. I'm not gonna tell you it's your loss or you're missing out either. I've come to the point, that I don't want what doesn't want me. Life is short enough. No one needs to have anyone in their life that doesn't want to make room for them or doesn't want them there. #NotASubliminalPost #OnlyAThoughtAndRealization 

I can respect someone telling me I’m not what they’re looking for.๐Ÿคท๐Ÿพ‍♂️Everyone is allowed their preferences. Truth be told, we would be wasting each other’s time by forcing something to work that’s not meant to be.

Saved By God’s Grace

 “You are saved by God’s grace because of your faith. This salvation is God’s gift. It’s not something you possessed. It’s not something you did that you can be proud of.”

Ephesians 2:8-9 CEB

Thursday Thought: Moving Forward With God

 When we fall short (and we do), God gives us the grace we need to keep moving forward with Him.
