Don't let limitation get the best of you!

Thank you to all those that have inquired and have been interceding in pray for me. I know this battle is not mine and is a sign that I must be doing something right. Those who know the power of pray please pray my strength, as I am praying for you.



I haven't written in a while, been going through some trials but will not be moved by what is around me. I hope this article enlightens you. Please give me feedback on what you think. It will be posted on my blog-site later tonight. Feel free to share it with others.



Don't forget to be a blessing to others around you and let your walk be your conversation. Words are empty without actions and at the end of the day, your words are all you got. Be accountable for your actions because you never know who is depending on you for the simplest thing.



Stay Blessed

Love always

Don't let limitation get the best of you.

 
We have all had times when we are slowed down or stopped. For example being stuck in traffic, being sick, lack of money, the one we like doesn't want to be with us... you get the point. One time or another we have been on a path and something came up and stopped or slowed us down. We then get frustrated, hurt, annoyed or even irritated. We know we are doing everything we can but it just doesn't work out the way we want it to.



What we need to realize is that everything happens for a reason. We should count our blessings because it did not go the way we wanted it to go. Sometimes we pray and ask for things that are just not good for us in the long run. We get frustrated being stuck in traffic cause we are running late but don't realize that God is saving us from something else. We get upset that we lost our job but not thinking that we are not supposed to be there or something better is coming along. We get hurt that she/he doesn't want to be with us but not realizing that that person is not meant for us in the first place. What is going to be will be, our purpose or plan has already been ordered by God. What is meant for us will be ours. It doesn't matter how late we are (not saying be late on purpose) or how hard we try to keep something if it is not for us there is nothing we can do about it. Once we have done all we can, we have to leave the rest to God so he can do the rest.



Our attitudes in our trials will determine how long we stay down. Instead of looking at it as "I hate traffic; these people can't drive" or whether else we may say/think, thank God for whatever it is that is going on. Know that He is preventing something from happening to us. Thank Him for the fact that we can get your rest when you’re sick and use that time to do things we are too busy to do on a regular (like meditate on his word). When your money is real tight that we can’t even see it, we should thank Him for all the other blessings we have. At times we forget to see the many blessings we have because we are focused on what we don't have. Also sometimes He limits our financial blessings because we may not be using it wisely. We are blessing people that He never asked us to bless or not blessing the ones He asked us to. Or even blessing others with the wrong intention. Never-the-less God will never let us go without what we need. Humble yourself and see who and what is around you that may be stopping your blessings. Know that all blessings come from God; even of it is th
rough someone else, it still comes from God. Philippians 4:19 reads "And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus."



Psalm 121

 1 I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?
 2 My help comes from the LORD,
       the Maker of heaven and earth.
 3 He will not let your foot slip—
       he who watches over you will not slumber;
 4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
       will neither slumber nor sleep.
 5 The LORD watches over you—
       the LORD is your shade at your right hand;
 6 the sun will not harm you by day,
       nor the moon by night.
 7 The LORD will keep you from all harm—
       he will watch over your life;
 8 the LORD will watch over your coming and going
       both now and forevermore.
