"The difficult moments in your life will test your faith. You will begin to doubt His goodness, and you will stop looking at His blessings because you are so consumed with worries and fears.

But when you pray, it simply means that you are allowing God to move in your life." ~from Pursued

Because at the end of the day, change is a personal choice to make. Our job is just to be with them along the journey of self-development. We are not here to judge or condemn other people."

"You may think that what you experienced is too painful, and if you were given a chance to turn back time, you would choose not to go through it. But then, remember the lessons that you learned in those seasons. You may find it hard to comprehend those things, but trust that God is up to something extraordinary and beautiful in your life."

"You will never find it difficult to release blessings as long as you learn to cherish and appreciate everything that God provided. If you wanted to experience a breakthrough in this area of your spiritual journey, then choose to be grateful. Learn to thank God for the blessings that you receive and focus on the good things around you."
