Saturday Doubts
"For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others;
for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness;
and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you
are never alone."
~Audrey Hepburn
As a beautiful actress/singer once said..be you
no matter what because you are never alone.
The feeling of not having self-worth is wide spread
over the nation and the world and it needs to be
addressed.
Do not doubt your worth because the sun, moon,
and stars are lucky to be looking down on you.
They admire your strength, dignity, and perseverance.
They believe that you are strong and willing to make
a change if you want to.. and if you don't then they
support it. If you are trying to make a change, then DO IT.
Don't hold back. Don't change half-way.
No one is standing in your way. If you feel like
the world is against you, do not be discouraged.
You are empowered by the Lord Jesus Christ to create
a change, but only if you want to. You are able to break the
cycle, it's not going to be easy but it will be worth the climb.
A wise man Mahatma Gandi once said, "Be the change you
want to see in the world." Only YOU can change how you see
the world and how you live in this world, you only have one
chance at this life...so don't waste it.
The feeling of loneliness and this idea that you are all alone
in this world has been reciprocated by many.
Jesus Christ felt the same way in the garden of Gethsemane,
on the eve of his death when he was on his hands and knees
crying out to his Father.
And for the one time in history, God did not reply because he
had a greater plan.
In this moment the Son of God felt alone, he felt this urge
of sadness that aches in your heart and nothing seems to
ease it. Unfortunately we also feel emptiness, a pit of despair,
something we can not escape from. It feels as
if a dark cloud is constantly over top of us and the weight
of our world is constantly upon our shoulders. If you feel
like this here are some remedies: #1 Your not
alone, another 107 billion people have lived and died
have gone through the same thing. #2 You are not alone
right now, no matter how isolated you feel there is someone
who cares and is willing to listen. #3 God is there, call out
to him let me know what you are feeling, he wants to know.
#4 If numbers 1-3 seem to faze you, then read the
words that were written by God to build you up a.k.a the Bible.
Now you may say, "I have no idea where to start?" Well that is
ok, I got ya! Here are three versus that helped me through the darkest
parts of my life and in some aspects they saved my life.
"I can do all things through him who gives me strength."
Philippines 4:13
"For I know the plans that I have for you, declares the Lord,
plans to prosper you, and not to harm you, plans to give you
hope and a future."
Jeremiah 29:11
Now this verse holds a special place in my heart, a
woman who knew me very well used this verse to describe me
and my life. At the time I was struggling with internal and external
issues, this verse taught me that I have the strength through Christ
to over the impossible.
"The Lord is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and
rich in love."
Psalm 145:8
Now some are not encouraged my words, some have to hear
the encouragement. So I encourage you to listen to the song
"Reckless Love" by Cory Asbury, it shows the love that Jesus
Christ has for you no matter what you have done or what you
are going to do. Remember no matter what you are loved by
the King, no one can ever change that. It looks like Ms. Hepburn
knew how to encourage her generations, along with
generations to come!
If anyone ever feels like they have no one, please please
contact me and I will give you some encouragement!
