Ephesians 3:11 – "He has made everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted eternity [a sense of divine purpose] in the human heart, yet man cannot find out [comprehend, grasp] what God has done from the beginning to the end."

One of the many amazing things about God is that He is constantly making things beautiful. He is constantly changing circumstances and allowing things in our lives for only a short season. The way God works is amazing because no matter what circumstance occurs in our lives, He is making it beautiful. No matter what the situation or circumstance is we must trust the process. Because everything occurs in seasons, I would say that in order for us to trust the process, we must embrace the season. The word embrace means, "an act of accepting or supporting something willingly or enthusiastically." To embrace means to see something as it truly is and accepting it.

Whenever something good or bad occurs in our lives it is easy to run to things that are familiar to us. We could run to social media or friends. But there is a big difference between running to things that are familiar and running straight to God. See when we run to things that are familiar, it is easy to fall back into old patterns that we were already freed from at the moment of salvation. When we run straight to God we are able to get clarity and peace. The problem or situation is no longer controlled by us, but it is completely in God's hands. This leads us to trusting the process and embracing the season.

God wants us to trust Him and He wants us to embrace the season. Because everything we go through is a lesson. Everything that happens in our lives, brings glory to God in some way even if we do not see it at the present moment. Son and daughters, no matter where you are in life learn to trust the process and fully embrace your season. No matter what, God will make it beautiful in His appropriate time. You may not be able to comprehend it now, but God will allow you to comprehend it, in His perfect timing. So today lean in, let go, trust and embrace.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit.

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
