Scripture

Instead, desire first and foremost God’s kingdom and God’s righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Matthew 6:33 CEB

Reflection

No matter what life brings or how others treat you, seek God first and always. Push past the feelings of doubt, hesitation, fear, frustration, and anger—and reach inside for the goodness that only God can create, provide, and replenish. This has nothing to do with others, and everything to do with you.

The most important part of healing is adjusting your thinking first, believing you are whole and complete, and that as God’s child you are free from any sickness or disease. Your mind is more powerful than your body ever could be—the next step is to watch as the part of you that wasn’t aligned properly, begins to heal and become whole.

We either believe in God or we don’t. I believe and I seek Him.

How about you?

Prayer

Father, thank You for today, for my gift of life and health. Today, I pray for more patience and understanding. I pray that I am slow to anger or get frustrated, and that I carry myself with dignity and grace— in all circumstances.

I strive to do better to get better, and pray that as a result I am blessed more. I seek You and I pray to seek You always. Amen.

Love,

Natasha

Scripture

But seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well.

Matthew 6:33

Reflection

By putting God first in our lives and opening ourselves to Him, we are more receptive to His blessings. No weapon formed against you shall prosper. No person can stand between you and God unless you allow them.

Don’t allow someone to get into your mind and throw you off your path. Your mind is God’s and only you and Him should control it. Stay focused on His wants and your life shall flourish.

Prayer

Father, thank You for supplying all of my needs according to Your grace and glory. I submit to You today and ask You to show me where I can sow seeds and be a blessing to those around me. In Your Son Jesus’ name Amen.  

Love you all!

Natasha
