Quotes from PURSUED
"Acknowledge your feelings but don't make them the basis of your decisions. Surrender it all to God and He will guide you." ~Pursued
"Generosity is just a manifestation of a grateful heart. "
"God doesn't focus on your failures. Instead, HE looks at the story behind all your actions."
"God sees your values and not your mistakes."
"God will never allow you to go through the journey on your own. He is your companion and He will never leave you."
"Learn to appreciate the blessings around you. It may appear simple and small, but in the eyes of God, He knows that you need those things."
"Let the challenges and problems you face lead you to the best version of yourself."
"Love will teach you how to focus on the blessings instead of entertaining the pain. It will serve as your strength to overcome the heartaches you feel deep within. It is a wonderful treasure that you can always carry wherever you go." ~Pursued
"Sometimes, the obstacles in front of you are God's way of leading you back to the right path."
"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. That’s why praying to God is already a step of courage. It’s not easy to trust, especially when you are in the middle of the wilderness. But when you pray, it simply means that you are allowing God to move in your life." ~from Pursued
"When you encounter God in your life, you will stop focusing on the things that you don’t have. Instead, you will feel so blessed with the precious gifts that He gave you. The uncertainties in life will never break your heart because you learned to be fully satisfied in His presence."
"You can never change somebody. You will feel so frustrated when you try to transform someone’s life according to your own effort and strength. 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."
