Sweet Escaped : Corinthians

"No eye has seen, no ear has heard,
no mind has conceived what God has prepared for
those who love him"

the spirit searches all things even the deep things of God.

~ 1 corinthians 2:9-10~

The best shortcut one person can ever take is to do what God says in His timings. We all need and must understand that we are long- distance runners. We are marathoners. we are not in a sprint, and we do not need to look for shortcuts that open the door to compromise. and also we need to understand that there is a price for taking shortcuts.

There is no shortcut to success. One path of the hidden truths of life is the path to the prize is always more valuable than the price itself. shortcuts rob us of those valuable lessons that we need to learn along the way.

Be persistent and stick to the path on which the Lord has placed you.

"Truth is never dependent upon consensus of opinion"

One way to stand head-and-shoulder above the crowd is to choose to do regular, ordinary things in an extraordinary and supernatural way with great enthusiam.

Never choose to quit just because somebody disagree with you. and always remember that someone else's failure in a certain area does not guarantee your failure.

~choose carefully which you want to stay, because like the sand, only those in the center of your palm will last...~

... way back last december i had a talk with a friend, I was surprised when we are in the middle of our conversation and she just suddenly said

" you know flor i admire you. because you make decisions without regretting
the choices you made. you never waste your time looking back...".

yeah, maybe i am what she said. but honestly, i am not that strong in facing all the consequences of every decision i made. in short, every single decision broke me. But that brokeness i experienced build me to what i am now. ( i'm not saying that i have something to boast now lol no! i have nothing to boast, 'cause everyting that i have with me is a product of grace) but it's about me as a person who is not strong but in my weakness God gaves me strenght to sustain me, for me to keep on pressing and moving. I believe that each and everyone is not a finish product of who they are. our flaws and mistakes are part of the process in the building of our character and what we'd been through in the build up of our personality.

~ for that one year of being away from home hmmm.... i missed this smell of the wind near the sea (grin) ~

Overcomer

understand that your value is not based on how somebody else has treated you or how perfect of life you have lived. or even how successful you are. your value is based solely on the fact that you are a child of the most high God.

You can't have have victories without difficult battles. you'll nevr have a great testimony without going through few test.

always remember that the enemy always fights the hardest when he knows God has something in store for you!

IF we are not careful, we will allwo the past to hold us.

The more we look backward, the less we are able to look
forward.

The past is not the only determining factor of what God can do for us today. It is never God who hold us back by allowing the past to keep us from living to the fullest in the present and future. Failure is waiting around the corner for those who live off of yesterday's success and failures.

We should choose to be forward-focused, not past-possessed.

The past is past; it has no life.
