❝ Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life. ❞
Philippians 4:6-7 (via womenofgodproverbs31)

Today is:

And I won’t, show or feel any pain
Even though all my armour might rust in the rain
A simple plot, but I know one thing,
Good things are coming (my) way.

Thank you Coldplay.

You’re my refuge. My strength. The one who renews the spirit in me.

❝ So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most ❞
Hebrews 4:16 (via breaksilence13)

Please bless them with a child of their own. I’ll never fill that desire. They’d be so much happier with their own child.

❝ The Christian way is different: harder, and easier. Christ says, ‘Give me All. I don’t want so much of your time and so much of your money and so much of your work; I want You. I have not come to torment your natural self, but to kill it. No half-measures are any good….Hand over the whole natural self, all the desires which you think are innocent as well as the ones you think wicked—the whole outfit. I will give you a new self instead. In fact, I will give you Myself: My own will shall become yours.’ ❞
C.S. Lewis (Mere Christianity)

Never be ashamed of the scars life has left you with. A scar means the hurt is over, the wound is closed, you endured the pain, and God has healed you.

❝ You have filled my heart with greater joy than when their grain and new wine abound.
I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety. ❞
Psalm 4:7-8 (via screamtheprayer)

Oh I’m running to Your arms
I’m running to Your arms
The riches of Your love
Will always be enough
Nothing compares to Your embrace
Light of the world forever reign
