So what are you going to do about it?
Have you ever heard the saying, “God helps those who help themselves?”
Let’s think about this for a second—then ask 1) is it true? And 2) is that statement supported in God’s word–His ultimate guidebook?
Does that mean that in order for me to deserve or earn God’s love and blessing on my life I need to DO something first? Perform? Act? Be dutiful? Be diligent?
While those things are good in some respect, it’s not a REQUIREMENT for God’s love or blessing. There’s nothing you NEED to do in order for God to love you more than He already does or to make you prosper. Jesus already paid the ultimate price so we could be holy and blameless in God’s sight because we’re covered by the spotless blood of the lamb!
Does that statement, on the other hand, mean that you can sit around and do nothing and expect your dreams and fullest potential to drop out of the sky or land on your doorstep?
Not so much.
Taking action on God’s plan and deepest desires He’s set in your heart is different from the mentality that He will help you “IF you help yourself.”
There is no prerequisite for God’s outpouring of blessing and favor in your life.
He loves you exactly as you are. As He created you to be. As He knit you together in your mother’s womb. But if you’d like to maximize your potential and grow into the best version of yourself that you can, that’s what will happen when you begin taking action on the dreams in your heart.
>>Final thought: Nothing you can do, have done or ever will do that can separate you from the love of God. Jesus paid the ultimate price for you with his life. Make sure you’ve invited Him to live in your heart. Now it’s your turn to maximize your potential and live out His fullest works in you and for the good of those around you. That is what you are called to. It’s time to get to work.
Your sister in Christ,

This is one of my most straight-to-the-heart chats that cuts to the core of the happiness we experience, or lack thereof, in life.
I’ve been working through a 30 day personal improvement self-created challenge to really get myself to a better place physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Because I know we were created for more.
You are. I am. He is. She is.
They are. We are.
So why are so many of us roaming through life with constant dissatisfaction and to put it plainly, unhappiness?
God has created us with the ability to think, learn, grow, change, move, reason and love. If you find yourself unhappy in ANY circumstance or area of your life, it’s time to take action TODAY to make a change.
You’re fully capable, it’s just a choice. You can choose any time. Why not right now?
