GOD'S PROMISES - HOPE

It can feel like things in your life that you are hoping and waiting for are never going to happen.

You are waiting for that promotion that you deserve but someone else got it. You are hoping that you will be healed from that illness but it seems like your symptoms remain the same.

It may take some time to see the answers for the things we are waiting and hoping for but it doesn't mean that God is not working on your behalf to make things happen.

It is easy to become discouraged when you don't see the hand of God working on you behalf, but you cannot give up. You have to keep praying, hoping and waiting for God to make things happen in His perfect time.

Pray and ask God to help you to pitch your tent in the land of hope!

GOD'S PROMISES - HELPING HAND

We may come across people in our lives that need help. They have no place to live; they are low on money; they are having relationship troubles and ask you for your advice. 

You open you door and invite them to stay with you temporarily; you lend them money; you give them advice on how to handle their relationship trouble and they do not seem grateful. 

They don't respect the rules of your home; they never give you back the money they borrowed even though they have it to give back; they get mad at you because they don't like the type of advice you are giving them.

This can be very upsetting. Even though it seems as if you made a huge mistake, ask God to help keep you from becoming upset and bitter for offering a helping hand to someone who needed it.

Your heart was in the right place!
