The answer, is yes. You don't have to be perfect to be acceptable, but you do have to be responsible for your choices. Shake off the stress with solutions and start that conversation with God.
Strife is defined as conflict or discord and left alone will be a sure path to stress. Finding a solutiion is your best defense. Find out WHY it's happening and turn to God for a new path.
We all experience stress at different levels. It's a part of life. But letting stress change our behaviors constantly leads to...more stress. Remember, God know's what's ahead. Let him handle it.
Status seeking is often loaded with stress. God warns us of thinking we are above another person. Remember, we are all precious in his sight.
We all want to be successful. Success is defined by how you measure up to others. Is that really how God want's us to live our lives?
Through comparisions, you diminish who you are, by overlooking the gifts and talents God has given you. No need to compare. Look in the mirros and discover who you are.
It's tough but we all need to face the truth and the consequences in life. Ignoring the truth about ourselves can damage what's ahead.
Have you ever had to cover the way you really feel about something. Be careful about throwing stones because they can inflict pain that never heals. Turn to God and he will lead you in the right direction.
Generosity is a God inspired behavior. But sometimes generosity can be taken out of context so that it has the reverse effect. Has that ever happened to you>
Self-deception is a slipery slope and can and will cross the line of what God intends for us to be and do. If you are stuck in self-deception, decide right now to seek God's wisdom and make a turn towards the truth.
Though sin may have gained a foothold in your life, through deception, God's grace is stronger. Today, it's time to turn away from deception and turn towards God. Tomorrow will me a much better day.
Deception is everywhere in our world. Satan decieved Adam and Eve. You are not alone, but the good news is, God has you covered with his love and mercy.
That little voice inside is God, telling you to face whatever consequences and cleanse how you live. Anything else is toxic and eventually will have disasterous consequences. Time to tell the truth.
Deceit and secrets are a choice as are truth and honesty. Betrayal happens when we follow the wrong path. God will help us find the right way.
Our eyes are the windows to our soul. Lying eyes are impossible to hide. The truth, even when it hurts, is the only way to a better place.
God's forgiveness and mercy replaces guilt and suspicion. He has the power to move you beyond insecurity.
Suspicion is darkness, because we don't fully understand the impact of a situation. That darkness is banished by the light of Jesus. Start the journey with a conversation with God. That is your first step.
Suspicion is a primitive instinct. It does have positive attributes. Suspicion is a red flag that when addressed, can stop further damage. Consider talking first to God for a solution.
Secrecy feeds suspicion. Our minds can play tricks on us, and it does when we don't fully understand the "truth". Talk to God and make sure that secrecy doesn't ever lead to suspicion.
Personal secrets can destroy relationships and your physical health. Knowing how and when to let them go is a little easier when you start with a conversation with God. Do that today.
