Today's Word
Word of the day: God has a surprise prepared for you!
The Bible says that God likes to give us much more than we ask for... or can even imagine! Every father enjoys surprising the child he loves with good things. How much more will God give good things to His children? God is our Father and takes great pleasure in blessing us.
20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
Ephesians 3:20-21
Trust that if you surrender your entire life, will, and future into the hands of the Lord, you will be greatly surprised... He is sovereign, extremely kind, and will lead you to a safe harbor, granting miracles, peace, and victories you never imagined! Just believe with all your heart and depend on Christ, in every moment. God will take care of your life, He has a new story waiting for you...
Let God surprise you! Pray, and tell God what your dreams and plans are. Ask Him to guide you and help you make important decisions in life. Remain steadfast in the presence of the Lord. Keep seeking God and His righteousness, and all other things you need will be added to you. Surely, He has a future of blessings for you!
11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29:11
Let yourself be surprised by God's blessings!
See how God wants to bless you!
Yesterday's Word
Word of the Day: Talk less and listen more!
We all have a friend who is a chatterbox, someone with the 'gift of the gab', talking too much is a common flaw in many people. Those who understand the power of silence and listening are the ones who truly master the art of speech. Usually, people struggle to communicate well because they can't listen properly and talk too much! Perhaps that's why God gave us 2 ears and only one mouth... Think about it and reflect on whether you're someone who talks too much, not letting others express their ideas. Listen more, reflect before speaking, and only then speak, with wisdom.
My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry,
James 1:19
Remember: Listening to what others say is a form of humility and love.

Word of the Day: Tired? Learn to Rest in God
Who has never felt overwhelmed with so much work? The long hours at work or school, the endless household chores, so many people demanding attention and help... There's no time to rest!
In the hustle and bustle of life, it's easy to forget about God. He is by your side, waiting for you to take a moment to say, "God, can you help me with all of this? I can't do it alone."
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."
-- Matthew 11:28
God wants to give you rest. In Psalm 23 God is referred to as The Good Shepherd, leading his flock to rest by calm waters. His rest is restorative, he refreshes the souls of those who follow when he leads.
1 The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
3 he refreshes my soul.
He guides me along the right paths
for his name’s sake.Psalm 23: 1-3
So, in his comfort, there is restoration and renewal. You don't have to do everything alone. Have you taken a few minutes today to rest in God?
