Dont Break Under Pressure

At any point, we can break under pressure, but God always know how much pressure to apply in order to continue the process of conforming his children into the image of Christ.

If it had not been for His presence through the Holy Spirit, prayer and his Word, the pressure would have drove me crazy and possibly driven me to complain but Im learning to lean and listen out for that small still voice that reminds me, "Dana, Im so near."

Trusting God sonetimes will make you look crazy to the onlookers but you continue to hold on to God's unchanging hands.

When He blesses us, its not just for us. God is a Giver; therefore, what He has planned will also bless the lives of others and depending in the size of the blessing, you must learn how to wait for the super-sized blessing.

The fact that God would even promise us anything is humbling. The idea of Him keeping his word is baffling considering He owes us nothing and yet the greatest promise that ever came to fruition was that of His Son.

Father, your promises are worth waiting for....I will work while you are preparing and setting things in order. You are a God of order and I trust you and the process you have for me to go through.

In Jesus's name I pray, Amen!😇

Today, Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the Lenten season. The lenten season is observed to better appreciate the death, and resurrection of Christ through self-examination, repentance, prayer, fasting, and self-denial. In addition, Ash Wednesday has another significant meaning for me. It was on this day, Ash Wednesday that the Lord brought me out of my induced coma in 2000, March 8th to be exact. Prior to that, I could only recall seeing my brother the night of the fire  in January who accompanied me in the ambulance while being transported to what was then called UMDNJ in Newark, NJ. On that Ash Wednesday, I can remember seeing both my grandmother and my mommy sitting in my hospital room. Grandma holding a can of Pepsi, and mommy doing something with my feet, lol. Probably clipping my toe nails. There is also that taste of chicken broth or soup I will never forget fed to me intravenously along with other fluids to sustain me while I was in a coma. Its been 16 years fr...

I heard it said once that people don't evangelize because they are too concerned about their finances. Instead of concerning ourselves with our finances, we need to make our trust in God a priority. Outside of God we will never have enough or be satisfied: therefore, we ought to totally rely upon the strength of God who is our Source and promised that we would not go without lack nor seed begging for bread. I've tried God at His word. There was a time I needed $500 and God laid me on the heart of someone and said, "God laid you on my heart to be a blessing to." The "things" we spend time worrying about that would potentially take our minds off of doing the work of God, God is already working that situation out for you. You just have to trust Him and continue in the work while you wait for Him to fulfill that which He promised. Now, if you haven't accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior then these promises do not apply to you but are available because Jes...
