First, forgive. Second, forget by choosing not to dwell on that which is forgiven and in the past. We have no right to keep in front of us what God has put behind Him.

If Jesus can live in you and you are no different than the world around you, something got short circuited because Jesus makes a difference.

A journal is a great way to keep track of what happens daily in your walk with God and to record your prayers and thoughts.

If we don’t have the Word of God as the foundation of what we believe, we will have a faulty footing—it will not stand against the elements that will come against us. God has designed both our physical and spiritual lives to be ordered by one key attribute upon which the fruit of the Spirit is based—that foundation is love.

The greatest encouragement is conveyed in prayer.

Everyone is in need of encouragement at some time. Take the opportunity today to encourage (give courage to) the one who often encourages you.

If you need counsel, start with the One who is both Counselor and King - the One who is the source of both wisdom and power.
