Sometimes it feels like I'm standing still:

     stuck...not even moving toward my destiny.

 

Do you ever feel that way?

 

What do you do in that situation?

 

I've learned over the years that there are times I need to encourage myself...just like King David did at Ziklag.

 

“David Encouraged Himself in the Lord”
1 Samuel 30: 1-25

Music helps.

Turn it up loud.

Sing with Martina and me...

"ANYWAY"

I also fill my mind with good things. 

 THINK ON THESE THINGS

Finally, brothers and sisters, 

whatever is true

whatever is noble

 whatever is right

whatever is pure

whatever is lovely

whatever is admirable--

if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--

think about such things.

Philippians 4:8

 "Destiny

is not a matter of chance;

it is a matter of choice.

It is not a thing

to be waited for;

it is a thing to be achieved."

 William Jennings Bryan

 

"When we are powerless to do a thing,
it is a great joy
that we can come and step inside
the ability of Jesus."

Everything is possible for him who believes.
Mark 9:23

Now faith is being sure of what we hope and
certain of what we do not see.

Hebrews 11:1

Commit to the Lord whatever you do 

and your plans will succeed.


Proverbs 16:3

   Maybe it's true.

Maybe we don't know what we have

until we've lost it.

But maybe it's also true

that we don't know 

what we're missing

until we find it.


We all need encouragement to take the next step toward our destiny.

I said a prayer for you, and for every person who will read this.  

I asked God to give you courage and strength for your journey, and faith to be certain of the things you hope for, that you do not yet see.
