Seasons Have Reasons

Our faith is incredibly important to Him, so much that He will take everything away so the only thing we have left to stand on is our faith in Him to show us that is all we need.   
Faith that He will keep His word even when it looks like nothing is happening.

Faith that He has a plan even when our lives go completely off the rails.
Just like all the other seasons we have been through, a lesson will be learned, blessings will be found and perhaps the opportunity to be a blessing to someone else. 
As I remember how I have seen God use terrible circumstances in my life as stepping stones to increase my faith and provide opportunities to glorify Him through those experiences, I cannot help but smile at His sovereignty and wisdom. ✞
God is carefully teaching us through the circumstances He permits in our lives. He has lovingly crafted a curriculum for each one of us. No one has the same schedule, classes, or lessons. It is tailored exactly for us. What a beautiful thing!
Blessings,
Dalinda

Some People Will Kiss You Today And Kick You Tomorrow

Others may fool you, but God's not duped....He knows everything. 

Some people will kiss you today and kick you tomorrow. But we must not become bitter because Jesus refused to become bitter in His betrayals.

Betrayal is something others do to you; bitterness is something you do to yourself. It’s impossible to go through life without being hurt. It may be an unfaithful mate, a person who slanders you, or a friend who turns his back on you. 

Jesus was betrayed by "one of his own." Not only that, he was betrayed by an act of loving greeting. Everything about this event was hurtful and horrifying. 

When others betray you, God has a way of opening doors to new levels of blessing you’d otherwise miss. 

One of the best resolutions some of us can make is to learn to say goodbye more. To be willing to part with the things, people, situations that inhibit us from experiencing God’s best in our lives.

Toxic Overload

Toxicity is seldom recognized as a primary cause of our health problems. 

Once we understand the role toxins play in cellular malfunction, we can understand the importance of minimizing toxic exposure and maximumizing the body's ability to detoxifiy. In order to protect yourself and your family, you must learn how to spot these silent and hidden dangers, and how to keep your defenses strong in order to avoid toxic overload. Never before has the human body been faced with such challenges of personal and global pollution. To respond to theses challenges and move yourself in the right direction on the toxic pathway, learn to make daily choices that will reduce your toxic exposure and support your detoxification systems. 

My husband and I started our business for the purpose of helping others detox with Whole Body Vibration, far infrared saunas, and alkaline water. Our studio, Circulation Nation is located in Simpsonville, SC. We offer monthly memberships with no contracts. We also sell Whole Body Vibration  machines, far infrared saunas and alkaline water machines.

Valley Experiences

Our sucky situations don't have to dictate our actions or define us. Our peace and joy originate not in the circumstances of life but in our relationship with Christ.

Does God have to fix something for us to be happy? If He removes the situation, we may never learn that He is sufficient for everything we need.

If we were capable of handling everything that comes our way, how would others ever realize that His strength is what makes us strong?

Faith Stretching

I don't know about you but I'm so thankful for a new week. It's so important to be thankful. Today in the world there are so many things that try to trap us. There are so many things trying to bring us down into depression or anxiety or anger. It's all in your perspective.

Since the beginning of time, Satan has been working against God trying to get God's children to doubt His word, His goodness, His wisdom. 

Worrying and anger won't change a single thing, so it's better to remain faithful and keep trusting God, and keep moving forward...keep growing...He will guide you through any struggle, any mountain...remember, faith stretching is a good thing.

God reminds me daily that He wants to be first in my life, front and center in the midst of all "my" plans. 

Blessings,
Dalinda

We Look For God's Hand Instead Of His Heart

We look for God’s hand instead of His heart.

Often times, when I am praying I am just asking. I subconsciously want to leave the thanksgiving part for after the prayer has been answered. But this is not how God wants me to pray. When I phrase my prayer in a way that is thanking God for His power and His ability to answer my request, my mind begins to think more positively about the situation and I begin to have a thankful frame of mind rather than a worried frame of mind. And then my faith grows because I am reminding myself of the power of the One I am praying to. - Holly Furtick

I am learning that in everything there is purpose and grace, hope and help; knowing that even though our questions may not be answered, our cries for help will; understanding that even though not all things are good, He is good and He works for our good in all things—those are miracles, too.

Satan Has A Soft Spot

The enemy will always plant a "why bother" in the face of God's "it's possible."

Satan may laugh over our struggles and mock our wisdom, but he is defeated when we pray. I find comfort in knowing that Satan has a soft spot...my prayers! 

When we allow God to take what Satan meant for evil and let God use it for good, it takes healing to a whole new level.
