Take Courage... and Die.

~ No matter where your life is at, or that of your parents... no matter where ppl may have fallen from or ascended to... God made promises over your life, plans for good things, don't underestimate your worth or what amazing things you are capable of.. as you have that awakening that God is faithful and will fulfill every promise and declaration he has agreed to (and planned) to do in your life.. the tide will turn.

~ The key is not to look at your life... it will always be filled with pain and difficulty, cuz this world is not paradise.. this world is cursed and a warzone against evil. The key is to look at your life and see the hand of God at work in it since the day you were born to where your feet stand in this moment. Hear Him, See Him, he was always there before you knew him and will remain even if you reject him... it's not about life, it's about how Jesus turns every attack of hell into a win for you when you accept him as Lord and Friend ♥

~ gotta say it one more time...
Jesus turns every attack of hell into a win for you when you accept him as Lord and Friend ♥

~ Life is ugly.. stop letting discouragement lie to you that it's sposed to be pretty, that's how he keeps owning you... discouragement is a a reality in all of our lives, but the voice of hope and truth whispers a way out of every storm.. sometimes it's a process, but God promises that he will walk that road with you no matter how dark or difficult or long it takes.

~ There is no paradise in this life.. there are glimpses of heaven, glimmers of hope, moments of joy... but life remains a painful journey... a battlefield of the worst kind.. death permeates the physical and the spiritual all around us, the sounds of the wounded, the dying, and our own screams under fire... it requires wisdom and maturity to see clearly, a humble heart, a pure heart, patience and courage... all the things that Jesus came to demonstate... to teach us, to train us, to lead us to victory.

~ Life is never gonna be easy, face it and get on with it, and know that you are loved and never walking it alone. It hurts, horribly... I'm not denying that... I am so sorry... God sees your tears and wraps his arms around you as he hooks his under your arms at the same time, whispering.. "you can do this, I got you, just a little further up and a little further in, we gotta get all those depending on us to that final win so this will all be over, I'm so proud of you kid, now lets do this ♥

~ The question is...
How much courage do you think you have,
and how much are your willing to let God hand over to you in this moment?

~ Accepting courage can be a scary thing, cuz with it comes a challenge, much change, and the death of something inside yourself so that others might live.
