Transparency

Positive word of the day-

transparency- to be transparent, to be clear about something

Let's learn to be transparent. Be honest with people. You ever told a lie and had to tell another to keep up with the last one

Scripture of the day- Psalm 23

Quote of the day- Faith in God includes Faith in his timing.

 If you have been given an idea and think on it continuously, God wants you to carry it forth.

Put confidence in God, not the flesh. God will give us what we need to do what he has called us to do. He will give you the confidence, faith, and the ability to carry the load he has given you. Too whom much is given, much is required.

We must confront our fears. We must be willing to step outside of our comfort zone.

Shake It Off

Adapted from the resource The Confident Woman - by Joyce Meyer

No matter what you do in life, there will always be someone who criticizes you, so you need to learn how to let it go and not let it bother you. Criticism is very difficult for most of us, and it’s easy for our self-image to be damaged by one critical remark. But it is possible to learn how not to let ourselves be negatively affected by others’ negative words. Every great man or woman has had to learn how to cope with criticism. We have to know our own hearts and not allow others’ judgment of us to keep us from moving forward.

People love you when you’re doing everything they want you to do, but they’re quick to criticize when even one little thing goes wrong. The apostle Paul experienced criticism about countless things, but he said that he wasn’t the least bit concerned about the opinions of others. He said that he did not even judge himself, but he knew he was in God’s hands and that in the end he would stand before God, and only He would judge his life.

Prayer Starter: Jesus, when criticism comes, please help me remember that You’re my only judge, and I don’t need to live to please people. Thank You for healing my hurts and giving me grace to let them go. In Jesus’ Name, amen.
