Words of Inspiration

1. Don't worry if those around you fail to praise you. Seek instead for the honor that comes from the Lord. That glory will last forever.

2. If your way seems blocked today, step forward by faith. Be willing to get your feet wet and then wait for God to respond.

3. As you seek God’s will for your life, seek His timetable as well. Don’t let your impatience carry you ahead of God. To do the right thing at the wrong time makes the right thing the wrong thing.

4. If you struggle under the load of what appear to be insignificant responsibilities, realize that God doesn’t rate the size of the task, only the faithfulness of those He calls to complete it. Be faithful to the duty and don’t worry about the dimensions.

5. If you feel left out in the giftedness department, remember that you can have the most important gift of all—Christ’s presence in your life.

6. Are you focusing on the negative? Look instead at the way God is blessing you in spite of that disappointment. See His hand of good in everything that happens to you—even if it’s different from what you planned.

7. Many people labor under heavy loads. Our kindness can mean so much to them. Don’t withhold a kind deed when it’s in your means to do it.

8. If you are tempted to give up, recognize your responsibilities. Until God gives the signal to pack up and leave, you must go on. In the meantime, rely on God’s strength. He will never fail you.

9. Ask God to give you not only knowledge but also the practical wisdom of knowing how to apply it.

10. Ask for His guidance in every decision you make, big and little, and look for His hand in every turn of life. We let God down when we leave Him out..

11. Take every opportunity, every difficulty, every issue that comes up in your life and let God show you His way through His Word.

12. Daily pray for each member of your family. Pay specific attention to their spiritual needs. Be a spiritual giant in their life. Provide for their spirit as diligently as you provide for their body. Filling the soul is no less important than filling the stomach.

13. Even though your trials may throw you for a loss time after time, you can have the confidence that God is still in control. Don’t quit. Trust Him and keep on going. A day is coming when you’ll be glad you did.

14. God is not committed to give you answers, but He is committed to bring you comfort. Avail yourself of what God offers—His presence in the midst of tribulation—and leave the rest up to someone far wiser than yourself. Answers don’t always comfort, but God does.

15. Don't believe something because it appears true; believe it because God's Word says it is true.

16. Commit yourself to call on God in prayer. Be consistent. Be courageous. Be confident. Then when you pray, God will show you "great and mighty things." There cannot be an answer until there is a prayer.

17. Find a time and place today where you can pour out your heart to God. Don't fake your emotions, but pray for those needs that have a strong grip on your spirit. If you have none, ask God to give you some. Let your approach to God reflect the urgency and the ardor of your concerns.

18. Are you willing to "go and tell"? Perhaps it's "go and tell" your next-door neighbor, or someone at work or maybe even someone who lives halfway around the world. Whatever the case, obedience to the Lord is the only way to handle your fears. When we trust and obey, God has a way of taking care of our fears. Our orders are clear: Go and tell!

19. Come to God with confidence. Remember, with God all things are possible—so pray accordingly. Be confident; God is able.

20. When you pray, trust God for the particulars. You can be sure that He will never overlook anything that is necessary for your spiritual well-being. No piece of minutia will escape His attention. Give Him the total control of your life, bathe it in prayer, but leave the details to God.
