One thing Always Remains

In this life, no matter what happens, I can never lose sight of one thing. No matter what trials come, no matter what twists and turns come my way, there's a never-ending call that I must always answer. The same goes for you all. Even when life demands your focus on things like: careers, bills, grades, friendships, etc, nothing changes the fact that God is calling us all to LIVE this life for Him. Every time I fail, I must get back up. Every time I falter, He's waiting for my response to His voice. There is a prize that deserves our utmost attention.
Don't let the enemy steal one more day! He would love to take every second he can to hold you captive.
Things sometimes happen that could knock me off course- believe me- but once I step back and regroup, one thing always remains: God's purpose. It's an eternal call, and present circumstances cannot outweigh "Him" in my life. What if He had allowed trouble or disappointments to stop Him from fulfilling His mission, even for a day, on this Earth? He knew torture and death were awaiting Him at the end of it all, never mind the daily persecution, and yet He loved us so much that He continued forward! What an awesome God we serve!
It's remembrance of this that reminds me why His purpose always outweighs mine. There was a mighty debt paid. There was blood shed. His children are perishing every second and it is a personal responsibility for ALL who call on the Name above all names to do their part to make a difference...and that requires focus. That requires devotion. That requires self denial when the pity party wants to move in on your life.
Make a decision today to love more, give more, pray more, be more, devote more to Him! No one will EVER be perfect- that's not what He is waiting on. He is waiting on you to take step after step after Him. God, Himself, is waiting with His big heart full of love for our decision to press into Him! He's rooting for you! Isn't it wonderful to know God is on your side?
Life hurts sometimes, but he's waiting to be our Help. Life is hard sometimes, but He's longing to be our Hope. There are a lot of us who have put God on the back burner for a season at some point in our lives, but Now is the time, today is your day! Put your eyes back where they belong: on the Mighty Creator that longs to hear His children cry Abba, Father!
His arms are so full of unconditional love and acceptance...
Ask Him today for the direction. Take some time to get alone and talk with Him. There's a refreshing that's awaiting you. He is closer than you think... And His peace and love will wash it all away. Take the time to get caught up in Him and allow God to kindle a new flame inside you.

Many blessings and prayers for every precious soul that reads this :)
