It's hard trying to live a life that pleases God. Especially when things get tough, we tend to put everything God wants aside in favour of what we want. But God is sovereign, His will will always supersede our desires. As children of God, we should have nothing to fear, as His will is good, pleasing and perfect (Romans 12:2) =)

This hols, though short, has brought many ups and downs...God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way.

Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong. Let all that you do be done with love. - 1 Corinthians 16: 13-14

Naked I came from my mother’s womb, And naked shall I return there. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; Blessed be the name of the LORD. - Job 1:21

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. - Proverbs 3:5-6

Blessed is the man who endures temptation
; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him. - James 1:12

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. - 1 Corinthians 13:4-7


The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer;
My God, my strength, in whom I will trust;
My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
- Psalm 18:2
