Your Best Life...Now!

In today’s society, we are flooded with images of what the perfect woman should look and sound like. We see movie stars on red carpets and it looks like they have the perfect life. We daydream about what it would be like to hear people scream our name. Stardom, however, does not shield you from the obstacles that life brings. No amount of money or fame can help when you lose a loved one or you’re hurt by someone you trust. Material possessions can not comfort you when you are sick or have been betrayed by a friend. None of us are immune to the storms that life can bring.

No matter what your economic or social status, we all are looking for something. We all want to be fulfilled in our lives and have joy. We are all searching for that man, that house, or career that will make us feel like we have arrived. Well after years of trying to use relationships and material possessions for fulfillment, I discovered the key to joy. I learned how to be satisfied with who I am. I learned how to love me despite my flaws. The answer to all of life’s questions can be found when you have a liaison with God. Meeting Christ for the first time is an unexplainable feeling. It is a love that you have never felt.  When you build a relationship with God, you will be introduced to the real you. When you give your life to Christ and let him do the work, he can give you the joy and peace you have been searching for your entire life. You don’t have to wait until you have a better paying job or that killer suit to be fulfilled. With Christ you can have your best life now.

The great thing about God is that he can meet you exactly where you are and he can turn your little into a lot. Whatever body image issues you had won’t matter anymore. When you read the word of God, you will discover that we were all made in his image and he has a plan and purpose for each of us. He has something unique and special that only you can do. God loves us so much that he wants us to have a life full of abundance. He doesn’t want us to walk around wishing we had another life.

Anytime we start to fall into those feelings, we have to remind ourselves that we are a child of God. We are queens and chosen by God to do great things. Instead of being envious of others, we should celebrate our sister’s achievements. Since God is not a respecter of persons, someone else’s success is just an indication that our future success is on the way.

We can enjoy our life right now. It is all about our attitude and our perception of the situations we find ourselves in. Take losing a job for example. While that is a difficult situation, God may be trying to open a new door for you if you stop worrying and put your trust in him. Maybe you put your all into a relationship and despite everything, it still didn’t work. Don’t get depressed and down. Take the opportunity to learn from your past and grow into a better woman for the next relationship. Our attitude will always determine the outcome.

No matter what we are faced with, no matter how high the mountain or how low the valley, we can make it through with Christ. Those superficial things like the length of our hair, our dress size or the complexion of our skin won’t even matter. We are all beautiful and we have something unique to offer this world. I know you’ve heard this time and time again but true beauty comes from the inside. When you clear out all of the negative things in your life and start to show love, you will be surprised at how beautiful you are to other people. Your light will begin to shine brighter than it ever has. Commit to drawing closer to God and asking him for direction and purpose for your life. When you discover the person that God created you to be from the beginning, you will experience your life in a whole new way.  If you submit to God, he will come into your life and change it for the better. Being submissive is a powerful tool, because it allows you to look at yourself for who you really are and it causes you to be humble enough to let God mold you into who he wants you to be. Regardless of where you find yourself at this very moment, with God, you can have your best life……Now!

Just Believe!

Sometimes it’s hard to believe that things will get better when all you see around you is chaos. We all will face trials and tribulations in our lives, but in those times we have to look at God and not our circumstances. If we keep a positive attitude and trust in God, he will come to us and show us the future he has planned. I had that very thing happen to me when I went through one of the most difficult times in my life. I lost the ability to walk and during that time God showed me what he had in store for me. I couldn’t believe it because all I saw around me was this frail, sickly woman. I kept wondering if what God had shown me was really for me. Then I realized something. God cannot go back on his promises. If he gives you a vision, it will surely come to pass. It was up to me to believe.

Maybe you’ve been holding on to a vision that God gave you years ago. You may feel like it will never come to pass. Today is the day to believe! God gave you those visions so you would have something to hold on to when the storms in life begin to rage. He wants you to keep the faith and let him do the work. God has a purpose and a plan for all of our lives, but we have to continue to let God mold us and shape us so that we will be ready for all he has in store. The longer you go through, the stronger you will be on the other side. God wants to make sure that when he is finished with you, everyone will be able to see that God has done a new thing in you. Don’t get discouraged, just believe.

Some months ago I was reflecting back on some of the things that God has promised me. Some of those promises were beyond my wildest dreams. I started to wonder how all of that could happen to little ole me. I could see clearly what God had in store for me, but the natural side of me started to ask God if all of these blessings were really for me. I went on about my day and later that afternoon there was a knock at my door. I was wondering who it could be.

When I opened the door, it was a familiar face. My cousin had two bags in her hand and a letter. She gave them to me and told me it was a special delivery. I kept wondering what this could be about. She told me that she couldn’t stay, but I needed to read the letter and I would understand.

I opened the letter and I began to read. As I starting reading, I was so amazed at the contents of that letter. By the time I finished the letter I was in complete awe. My cousin had given me several items that said, “BELIEVE.” I just began to thank God. He wanted me to just trust in him because what he promised me was going to come to pass.

The great thing about God is that he will meet us right where we are. If we are struggling with something and we give it over to God, he will give us the strength we need to make it through. God needed to remind me that my attitude would determine when the manifestation of his promises would come. If I started to worry and doubt, God would not be able to operate in my life. If I chose to believe, God would give me everything he promised.

No matter how long you’ve been waiting, no matter how extraordinary the vision, if God gave it to you, it will happen. Don’t focus on what your surroundings look like. Don’t pay attention to those doubters who say that it will never happen for you. Look to God and I promise you, it’s going to come. Your blessing is on the way. Just BELIEVE!
