Hello, I'm Amanda!
Welcome to my blog! Please feel free to comment. I love hearing what you have to say!
Look not through the eyes of a human, but through the eyes of God.
Impossible is not a word. It's just an excuse not to try.

Peace of mind

Frustrated? Lonely? Tired of doing the same ol' thing? Think you need new friends? Feel weak? Feel like your at your wits end?

Matthew 11:28-30
Then Jesus said, "Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke fits perfectly, and the burden I give you is light."

You will find a friend in Jesus and you can accomplish anything with the power that the Holy Spirit gives you!

Philippians 4:13
For I can do everything with the help of Christ who gives me the strength I need.

The feeling that Christ gives you is indescribable, but the best feeling I've ever had. Pray persistently and God will speak to you, you just have to listen. You can't just say "Oh I know Jesus, he is my best friend" you have to live the word of God! Don't just talk the talk. Dog gone it, if you are gonna talk the talk and not walk the walk you are just fooling yourself. You have to talk the talk AND walk the walk. Stop cussing, think about it what does cussing do for you anyways? Just makes you look like a fool. Stay away from temptation, be kind when someone hurts you, respect people, stop gossiping, and stop telling people your feelings. When you need to talk to someone about your problems, talk to God! Put down the phone, lock yourself in your room and tell God "God I'm not leaving till you make me okay with this." When you are at your weak moments, which we all have because we are only human, pray for patients and strength. God is right there. You can tell him anything and he will never ever tell anyone else. He lives in you! Know that your redeemer lives!

So you can keep fooling yourself and never find peace of mind, or you can look up to the one and only who knows all and find your peace of mind! Have the positive outlook on life that he only gives. Which will you do?
