Don't be Discouraged

A year and a half ago one of my best friends said the struggles temptations, and challenges will increase and get worse. I can definitely feel that now. Today I spoke to one of my good friends and she sounded really down. This was sad to hear because she's such a fireball and has no need to feel discouraged. She has a bright future ahead of her and the only one who can stop her from achieving her dreams is she. When you're in the faith nothing can stop you because you have Jesus on your side. Obstacles and limitations are only a mirage. I definitely feel I have a duty to encourage my brothers and sisters at this time especially if I'm in a great state of being. I'm dedicated to reminding them of the life they have in Christ. The problems they see aren't problems and they just need to ask God to help them see past them. Sometimes, something can seem like a problem and later you realize it wasn't a problem at all. I do feel like the devil can use this to his advantage though. So it’s important to stay alert.

In Christ,
Friend of God

Limbo

Right now I'm in limbo. I say that because I'm waiting for some of God's promises to be actualized. He's already told me what He's going to do, but now I have to wait for it and believe it. This actually takes lots of work. its easy to believe things God's says when you see it right in front of you, but its alot harder when you don't see how it will work out. And during these times the devil tries to steal whatever faith you do have. But I'm just being patient, which can be pretty hard and itso temptingto complain. :( But God has nevr failed me before so theres no reason to give up hope now. :)

Best,
Friend of God
