Raise your faith

" But as they sailed, he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water and were in jeopardy. (LUKE 8:23)  And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then he arose and rebuked the wind and raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm. (LUKE 8:24)  And he said unto them, where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying on to another, what manner of man is this! for he commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey him (LUKE 8:25) And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is over against Galilee. (LUKE 8:26)." Anybody can be steady when there is no storm. The Lord spoke to me to share with you about being steady not hysterical, not frantic, not anxious but steady in the storm.  Looks bad, it looks tough but remain steady. You are closer to there than you have ever been before. And in order to get there you must be steady in the storm. The true skills...

  Growing up, I was always the quiet kid. The kid who always behaved in class, who never got caught being too loud or rebellious in any way. I would say that, on the whole, I was a good kid who was considered good by most. But as I grew up and slowly grew into the person I am, I realized that I was not a good child because I was better than other children. I was good because I was afraid to be myself. You see, I grew up in an extremely abusive home. My father indulged in alcohol and had severe anger issues. My father instilled a fear in me that I still struggle with today as an adult. My father never once laid a hand on me, nor did he have to. When he just looked at me, my heartbeat fast and my hands shook. My father's physical abuse was more directed at my mother  Growing up and seeing all that I experienced as such a young child, especially having to be taken away from home because things were getting alot worse than they always were, I developed severe anxiety and...

 "The only thing I ask you to do is when life hits you in the gut, survive. When they say you won't make it cry if you must but survive. When they fire you and you don't know where you're going to get your next meal from, hold your head up, your back straight and survive" Bishop Td Jakes

 "Stop moaning what you went through. No matter how painful, no matter how grievous, no matter how difficult, no matter how embarrassing, no matter how humiliating it might have been, God took you through whatever he took you through to prepare you for whatever his about to do next in your life" Bishop Td Jakes.

  The truth is that most of us find it difficult to focus on the Lord. The reason is that we do not know the benefits of doing so. When we know and understand the benefits of focusing on our heavenly Father, we will shift our focus from everything that is happening around us to God. What Does it Mean to Focus on God? To focus on God means to consciously direct our thoughts and desires towards our heavenly Father. It means looking at life through the lens of Christ. And choosing to look up to him and trust him regardless of what is happening around us. Spiritual growth and stability For my part, I struggle with stability. Sometimes I am mentally strong and ready to face any giant in my life. But there are also times when I am downcast and I just wish that God would remove every obstacle from my path so that I can live in peace. But it should not be like that, should it? We need to experience growth, and that can only happen when we focus on God. A person who focuses on God and His W...
