Persistent Faith

“but Mary kept all these things in her heart and thought about them often.” (NLT) (Luke 2:19)

“The ability to remember is a beautiful gift when it’s positively embraced. Mary recognized that keeping the Lord’s blessings near to her heart and remembering them produces beautiful memories. These memories are sweet and can carry us forward through difficult times. As this verse says, keep your blessings in your heart and think about them often.”

This was a perfect timing devotion. Whenever I’m in a situation I have no control over, I stop to think about how I always overcome it. I know it didn’t happen solely based on luck and chance. I know it was orchestrated for me and worked out because it was in God’s will.

Faith is always tested because it is the key to God opening that door. Along with faith I have to remember that energy reflects on the situation. It’s so difficult not to worry when I’m in a bind and am looking for something to come through. And sometimes, I tend to forget how faith truly works.

I don’t pray once because its continually on my mind. I do however, pray a different type of prayer — asking for His will to be done along with peace of the situation because waiting/patience is no joke.

Throughout the time I’m waiting for God’s answer, I began to remember past situations  He brought through, whether it went as I desired or not. These situations help me remain steadfast while reminding me that everything will be okay.

It’s what I need…those blessings of memories.

How about that life n Asia? Literally. An introvert growing to be a blogger. Channeling my taste, eclectic style with a little bit of a vintage attitude. I enjoy setting trends while staying clear of fads. Individuality will always be key, based on my unique personality. It's not about the popularity, it's showing who you truly are as a person. Cues, comments & critiques are welcomed. #travel #love #motherhood

  1. I’m going thru this right now! I have to keep praying because I feel like hope is fading! I’m not sure if it’s God’s will that the situation end or if I have to let it go and move on. It’s a hard place to be and sucks lol
