Some bible verses I live by that helps to keep me going.. Enjoy!!

*Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds,because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. James 1:2-4


*But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.- Matthew 6:33



*Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.- 1 Corinthians 13:4-8


*And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.
 What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written:   For your sake we face death all day long;
   we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.
 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,neither the present nor the future, nor any powers,neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.- Romans 8: 28-39

*Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.- Hebrews 11:1

Are you living?

Can anyone tell me the true meaning of living... living is not just existing as i once quoted.. its not sitting around hoping for something to happen, its getting up and making things happen. Living is waking up every morning and thanking God for letting you live to see another day. Living is appreciating the little things in life such as the sweet scent of flower, the birds chirping, fresh air, the ability to see, hear, touch and so on. Living is taking a stroll on the beach and letting the sand run between your toes. Living is taking the time out of your routine schedule to call/ text a friend and say i love( never miss the opportunity to tell someone how much you care).Living is seeing beyond your obstacles and looking towards the end where your success lies. Living is letting the tears just fall sometimes because it helps to release stress and sorrow. Living is killing your enemies with good no matter what they do to you. Living is helping someone in need. Its taking time out to actually hear and not just listen. Living is not always just thinking about YOU its about being thoughtful and always considering others because believe it or not what you do doesn't just affect you it affects everyone. Living is putting yourself in the other persons shoe before making a judgement.( you could miss out on meeting an awesome person). Living my friends is not just existing theres so much more to life, so start experiencing it. love j - iInspire
