You’re a story in the making right now. Don’t get stuck in the sentence of your life. You’re a story. There’s more to you than the sentence you’re in right now. There are paragraphs, pages, chapters and new books.
Future
Vaneetha Risner
Replacing “what if” with “even if” in our mental vocabulary is one of the most liberating exchanges we can ever make. We trade our irrational fears of an uncertain future for the loving assurance of an unchanging God. We see that even if the very worst happens, God will carry us. He will still be good. And he will never leave us.
Charles Stanley
You have the ability to live a liberated life, free from sin and full of God’s goodness, grace, and mercy. When you obey Him, you can anticipate that He will reveal exciting new things to you. Never forget – the keys to crossing any bridge successfully is faith and obedience.
Rick Warren
If you think your life is beyond repair or your best days are all behind you, you’re wrong. If you think it’s impossible for God to bring good out of bad, you’re wrong. No matter how broken your life may seem, no matter how badly things have fallen apart, Jesus can make you whole again.
Elisabeth Elliot
Today is mine. Tomorrow is none of my business. If I peer anxiously into the fog of the future I will strain my spiritual eyes so that I will not see clearly what is required of me now.
Ray Johnston
Avoid these five toxic hope killers that can threaten your future:
1. Bitterness and resentment
2. Worry and anxiety
3. Looking back and comparing
4. Guilt
5. Past failures.
A.W. Tozer
God takes that which is nothing and makes something out of it. When you become a Christian, you cannot patch your Christianity onto your old life. You are to start over. Accept God’s call as a promotion. Burn the old bridges and fix it so you cannot go back; then serve God with all your heart.
Stephen De Silva
A farmer knows when to plant and how to plant so there will be a significant harvest. Be like that farmer and don’t get caught in the trap of thinking only about your current situation. Pray into your future!
Ray Johnston
Maybe you’ve been in some places or gone through some years where the best view is in the rearview mirror, but hope has no hindsight. We never hope backwards. We always hope forward. Hope connects us to our future and determines that future.
Bob Goff
Some people speak with a great deal of authority about what God is doing right now. I’m always amazed because I can never figure out God that quickly. I usually understand what God is doing by seeing it through the rearview mirror. Only then can I connect the dots, and even then, it’s a pretty dodgy sketch. Maybe that’s why the Bible described what we are often doing as looking through a mirror dimly. The Bible says that right now we only know “in part” and that one day, after we’ve gone, we’ll know “in full.” That makes more sense to me because it means our understanding will always have gaps and gaps are good because they leave room for God to fill in the spaces.
