So here recently I've really just changed my mindset. I'm happier, healthier, and most importantly closer to God. I read my devotion every morning and I've come across some Bible verses that really just help me get through the days when it's a little hard. We all have those mornings where we are just dragging, but hopefully one of these verses can really help you out.
Matthew 17:20
He replied, "Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."
This is seriously so comforting because even if you get scared and back away, you can still have very little faith and He will help you!! God literally tells you that nothing will be impossible for you, believe it, know it, have that faith!
Deuteronomy 7:9
"He is the faithful God who keeps His covenant for a thousand generations."
This is just as comforting as the first because our God is the same God from hundreds of years ago and he keeps the same promise he made to us as he did to those people and the people before that and the people before that!!! Nothing changes his mind, no one can change his mind. He is a faithful and forgiving God who definitely keeps his word.
Revelation 21:4
"He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death, or sorrow, or crying or pain."
This one really helps me. I've been through a lot in my life and lost a lot of great people that I would give anything to just have another day with. But how sweet is it to know that one of these days we will meet God and we will have no more sad tears to cry because everyone is in pure joy and no more pain, suffering, everyone is happy. Everything is happy. It is truly exciting.
Hebrews 4:15-16
"This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for He faced all of the same testings we do, yet He did not sin. So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most."
How crazy is it that Jesus never sinned? He never back talked his parents, he never wished he had something more, he never let a cuss word out when he stubbed his toe. The little things that just "slip" sometimes for us, Jesus never did that. But you know what's even better? As long as you know Jesus and accept him into your heart, you will have all of the forgiveness from him when your day comes. God knows we will mess up, but as long as we repent our sins and ask for forgiveness from him, He will forgive. What a mighty God he is!
