Philipians 2: 14-16
"14 Do everything without grumbling or arguing, 15 so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.” Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky 16 as you hold firmly to the word of life."
Oftentimes, we try to impress people with our pretty pictures on social media, maybe we try to dazzle others with the car we drive, or the house we live in. We look at movie stars and think they have it all together.
But, the Bible is telling us, if we want to shine like the stars in the night among everyone in this crooked and warped generation, we need to have a grateful heart.
So, if you are trying to be the best mom, the best wife, or the best worker, thank the Lord for everything you do. He will make you shine. Remember, he covers you with favor and grace. It's his hand that makes you prosper.
Be encouraged today. When you are cleaning your floors, be grateful you have a home.
When you are changing diapers, thank the Lord you have a baby to take care of.
When your children are talking your ear off, listen without grumbling. After all, the Lord has given you someone who needs and loves you.
What things are you grateful for? Let me know and share if you were encouraged.
Love,
Sofía.
