“I wonder why when our situations that we are in get a little hard or even a little uncomfortable we wanna immediately wanna run away and retreat..Amen..when we get into a uncomfortable place we think automatically that surly this isn’t the place that the Lord would desire that I be..Amen..because it is different..it is something you would never imagine for yourself..but yet there you are in this place as to where honestly your not even sure how in the world you even got there..Amen..but you know guys it is in them types of places that God shows you who He is..and as well who you are in Him..Amen!”

“For we can’t retreat always and in every place that may be a little uncomfortable or different for us..because we never get the message that God is trying to give..and we never grow into that place as to where we are changing and expanding ourselves to new avenues and new heights with the Lord..Amen..so we remind ourselves that if we are somewhere as to where it is a little different and uncomfortable just a tad bit..that we are there for a reason..that God our Father orders our footsteps..Psalm 37:23/Proverbs 16:9..and that yes we make our plans but God is the great director over us and our lives..Amen..so we don’t run away every time something is different..or even difficult..but we master where we are in our lives..and I believe when we get it than and only than we move on to the next thing..Amen!”

“It’s like that runner that is running in a race..he can’t just stop along the way and expect to win..for if he would stop every time something were uncomfortable for him or difficult then he would never reach the finish that place as to why he started from the beginning..Amen..just as us..all of us we are runners in a race for the Lord..and we are called to run our race with endurance..and steadfastness..Hebrews 12:1-2..Amen..all the while trusting the Lord to give us strength and guidance as we run..Amen..that we keep our eyes fixed on the prize of the reason why we started to begin with..that we stay moving and daily so..learning and maturing into the child of God that we are called to be..and no at times it isn’t fun..and it is uncomfortable..but the outcome when through it all is magnificent..Amen..so holdfast in your journey with Christ..and keep on moving guys and remaining in the place that God has called for you to be..and get polished up in other words..get strengthened..and win this battle..and win this difficult situation or task that has been given..for we can and we will always be able to do all things through Christ who gives us the strength..Philippians 4:13..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
