Do Your Part, and He’ll Do His
No need to strive! God can work through anything to relieve anxieties. What is something that God used to bring you peace? Answer: π€ When it comes to striving, on the one hand, I want to say, “I did it, I made it happen, I worked hard, I’m a SELF-MADE woman.” But I’m learning to, JUST GAVE ME JESUS, song by Unspoken. On the other hand, though, I want to say that it was a team effort. The problem today, is I’m sitting around waiting on God to do something and He’s waiting on me, it’s a team effort. God and I are working together. How? I sowed the seed and watered it, and God gave the increase; 1 Corinthians 3:6-15.
Or let me say it this way: you do your part, and God will do His part. I didn’t do it on my own,
WE DID IT TOGETHER. I find that it gives me peace, and I’m relievedπ from my anxieties when we work together-
YOU DO YOUR PARTπ, AND HE’LL DO HISππ

Receive the helper! What is a situation that you need God to lead you in? Answer: π€ In today’s world, it’s easy to look back, but look where He brought me from, He brought me from a
MIGHTY LONG WAY, a song by Tye Tribbett.
I need strength to hold on to Jesus, keep praying, keep worshipping Him, keep living a Christian lifestyle, and keep putting my hands on the plow; Luke 9:57-62.
Frustrated with everything, I would love to curse somebody out, but I don’t get to take a day off from being a Christian.
I didn’t say, Minister; I said Christian, you know, lifestyle, every day you’re Christian, kind, loving, forgiving, etc. Help me, Holy Spirit, Ya’ll pray for me!
If I ever lose my faith in you…Jesus, nothing be left for me to do, so please don’t let me lose my faith.

Live in love! What is a way that helps you live in love with other people?
Live in love, but how? How do I live in it, or how do I live in this place called love, or how do I live with this person called love? If God is love, then how do I live in love with Him? If Jesus is the “door” to love, how would I enter? Answer π€ I stand at the doorπͺof your “heart” and knock, says Jesus; Revelation 3:20. He’s a gentleman, He will not force His way in. So Come in, Jesus, make your home π‘ in my heart. All of the creation revolves around your undeniable love, CAN’T DENY YOUR LOVE, song by Unspoken. Question π€
If love was home, how would you live in it…me personally, in a lazy boy furniture π€£
THE TAKE-AWAY: before I can live in love π₯° with you, I must learn to live in love with Him…Jesus!
IF LOVE π WAS A HOME π HOW would you LIVE in it…or HIM ???

I forgot to add a scripture verse, “for in Him we live and move and have our being”; Acts 17:28, to my post, if love π was a home π‘ how would you live in it…or Him…scroll βοΈ

Trust God! What are some things you want to trust God more with? Answer: π€ my pity party. I’m having a pity party, and you’re not invited. Just me, myself and I, and woe is me! Everything is wrong; I can’t do anything right. I hate myself, I hate π my life, and I can’t seem to make enough money. Mama said, there’ll be days like this! When I look to the left, it appears I’m having a pity π party, but if I were to SHIFT MY FOCUS to the β‘οΈ right, unto Jesus, life wouldn’t seem so bad at all. Why? Because I have hope that JESUS WILL, song by Anita Wilson.
When I understand what season I’m in, for example, WINTER and I’m THE SEED that’s being buried, or God is working on my character development or SPRING and I’m the seed that’s SPROUTING, or God is doing a new thing in my life, I’m able to TAKE IT ALL IN STRIDE, the good, the bad, the ugly, the facts of life.
When you’re done talking yourself down from the tree or ledge, remember that tomorrow is another day, so save your energy; Matthew 6:34.
