There have been so many moments in my life where I really needed to feel the presence of God. I needed to know He was there with me, that I was making the right choice, that I wasn’t facing these trials alone. But I felt, heard and saw nothing. Sometimes, if I’m honest, I wondered if God had left me. I would think that maybe I went down the wrong path, and He was thinking, “Nope. Not going there with her. Hasta la vista, I’m heading back to heaven.”
•
But that’s not true at all. The bible says:
“No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:37-39
•
In those moments, when there is no tangible proof God is right there with you, this is when your faith will be tested and where you will grow closer to God than you ever have been. Here’s what I want you to do: You can’t hear Him, so let Him hear you. You can’t feel Him, so seek His face. You can’t see Him, so let Him see your praise. Yes, this is what I encourage you to do in those times: praise Him, say in faith, “ God, you ARE here with me,” keep praying and having quiet times reserved for you and Him, and read the word, reminding yourself of the truth.
•
This isn’t a formula to get what you want, but this will keep your faith strong when you want to give up hope. It will keep you focused on Christ, and that’s ultimately what will be your strength in these times. Stand in faith. Be encouraged. I’ve been there, some days I still go through this, so let me remind you that God loves you so much.
•
Seek out the goodness of God in your life. There IS good, and that is God. He’s still here.

You will go where God said you will go.
•
Just felt to share an excerpt of a poem I wrote two years ago. Be encouraged, all you Princesses.
•
I AM the I AM, The Majesty on High
I abide in you, not in a castle in the skyI am with you, My daughter, do not be afraid
I will not leave you in the waters you wadeYou will not drown nor will you go under
For My hand will sustain you with power like thunderA flash of light will follow you everywhere you go
For when you go in My name, My light will flowAll around you, inside you, to people on the street
Miracles will happen as you abide in MeThey’ll ask you why you are this way
Tell them: It’s Jesus, I just obey.How pleased I am with you, Child of Mine
How you desire to do My perfect will And in My perfect timeYou will ask and I will hear you
You will seek and you will find
You will knock and I will open
For My love is always kindBe not afraid
For I am with you
If you hold to My hand
You will see the impossibilityHappen through you.

Your worship yesterday does not praise God today. Sing Him a new song.
•
Oh sing to the Lord a new song, for he has done marvelous things!
His right hand and his holy arm have worked salvation for him.
The Lord has made known his salvation;
he has revealed his righteousness in the sight of the nations.
He has remembered his steadfast love and faithfulness to the house of Israel.
All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
•
Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth; break forth into joyous song and sing praises!
Sing praises to the Lord with the lyre,
with the lyre and the sound of melody!
With trumpets and the sound of the horn make a joyful noise before the King, the Lord!
•
Let the sea roar, and all that fills it;
the world and those who dwell in it!
Let the rivers clap their hands;
let the hills sing for joy together
before the Lord, for he comes to judge the earth.
He will judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with equity.
Psalm 98

Lord, help me to love my family better.
•
We all fall short in our lives. You know it as well as I do. Our best efforts are not enough, and that’s why we need the Lord’s help. The good news is He is with us (John 16:13).
•
I used to feel ashamed to ask for help from God because I felt like I was bothering Him or that I was failing His expectations of me. Do those thoughts sound like they came from God? They did not, and the Lord was quick to remind me that Jesus died for me to be able to come to the Father without hesitation. Jesus opened the door for us to come to God at anytime of the day, in any place we are, and through any circumstance around us.
•
Many people have told me we should have an order in the way we come to God. First, praise; second, gratitude; third, repentence and lastly, asking requests. I think all those things are good, but I feel sometimes I focus more on the first three because they seem holier than asking God for help. In reality, humbling yourself to say, “God, I cannot do this alone,” is a state of heart that is pleasing to the Lord too. (Psalm 25:9)
•
Recently, I have asked God to help me love my family better. This is one place I struggle often and need more of Him. Today, I want you to know it’s okay to ask for God’s help in this life (Psalm 121:1-2). He’s there with you, waiting for you to come to Him (Psalm 46:1). We need God to follow God!
•
If you are struggling to break an addiction, come to Jesus (Psalm 50:15).
If you have a hard time obeying God, come to Jesus. (Psalm 143:10)
If you can’t see how to fix your relationship, come to Jesus. (Psalm 24:4-5)
If you feel empty, come to Jesus (Psalm 23).
If you need rest, come to Jesus (Matthew 11:28-30).

God will not give up on you so don’t give up on yourself.
•
God has a specific purpose for each of us but without fail the enemy tries to turn our cheek to the left and right so we swerve off the path God has set before us, or stop running altogether. The enemy wants us distracted and discouraged so we take our eyes off Jesus, who enables us to do the impossible and empowers us to run this race. What the enemy fails to understand is that we do not run alone.
•
When the enemy puts blockades in front of you, God yells, “JUMP OVER IT! You can do it, I’m with you!” When people from the crowd say or do things that take you off guard, God shouts, “DON’T LOOK AT THEM! Listen to me, Child. Follow me, I’ll show you where to go and how to do what I’ve called you to do.” When things begin to happen all around you, the Lord says to you, “Do not fear for I am with you, Do not be afraid for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you, I will uphold you with my righteousness right hand.” (Isaiah 41:10)
•
Princesses, be encouraged on this day. I know life comes with many challenges, but keep going, continue to praise God in every circumstance. He will surely help you in all that you have to do. He will give you wisdom, grace, and faith on this journey. Don’t quit. Don’t loose focus. God will not leave you. Just keep going back to Jesus, back to your love, and by faith, mountains will be moved.
•
Hebrews 12:1-2
“Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.”

Do not end your “I don’t know” with a period, but with a prayer.
•
For all those times you feel a sense of hopelessness, or when you simply do not have the answer, this poem is for you.
•
I do not know
I cannot see
My questions are
Crowded in front of meWhere should I go?
Or should I stay?
I do not know
Where my head should layI do not know
How I can provide or
If I am in relationship
With the right guyWhat is my purpose?
Why is there pain?
What is the truth?
My “I don’t know” remains.Yet, one thing I know
This will stay true
Though I do not know
I always have YouLord, you know it all
You know when I rise
Where the flowers fall
Where the sparrow liesHelp me to understand
If not, then to trust
To have faith in You
When I feel like giving upI do not have the answers
My Jesus, I seek You
This ends not with a period
But with an exclamation of truth!I don’t know what to do
I don’t know what to say
But I give you my “IDK”
Lord, show me your wayI welcome you, today.
•
“And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you.”
Psalms 9:10

“'Lord, what about this man?' Jesus said to him... 'What is that to you? You follow me!’” - John 21:21,22
•
“One of our severest lessons comes from the stubborn refusal to see that we must not interfere in other people’s lives. You see a certain person’s suffering, and you say—He shall not suffer, and I will see that he does not. You put you hand straight in front of God’s permissive will to prevent it, and God says—“What is that to thee [you]?” If there is stagnation spiritually, never allow it to go on, but get into God’s presence and find out the reason for it. Possibly you will find it is because you have been interfering in the life of another; proposing things you had no right to propose; advising when you had no right to advise.
•
When you do have to give advice to another, God will advise through you with the direct understanding of His Spirit; your part is to be so rightly related to God that His discernment comes through you all the time for the blessing of another soul.
•
Most of us live on the borders of consciousness—consciously serving, consciously devoted to God. The mature stage is the life of a child which is never conscious; we become so abandoned to God that the consciousness of being used never enters in.
•
When we are consciously being used as broken bread and poured-out wine, there is another stage to be reached, where all consciousness of ourselves and of what God is doing through us is eliminated. A saint is never consciously a saint; a saint is consciously dependent on God.”
-
From Oswald Chambers’ Daily Devotional: My Utmost for His Highest

Go at your own pace.
•
Remember the story of the turtle and the rabbit? The rabbit was going so fast down his lane, he felt he had all the time in the world to finish the race, afterall, he was a rabbit and his opponent was a turtle. He took time to eat his snacks, take a nap, explore some other paths, and eventually decided to get back to the race. Lo and behold, that little turtle who was far behind, didn’t detour but kept on his path, he didn’t stop but continued on and you know what? He won that race.
•
When it comes to writing, I sometimes feel I ought to write more like all these other Instagrammers who write daily. But then God reminds me that I am not in their lane, He has a different schedule for me. Sure, it may look slow to others, but actually, if I go any faster I’ll get a ticket for exceeding God’s speed limit. So, I go at my own pace.
•
And Princesses, YOUR own pace is perfect. It may look like people around you are superceding you in their life, but stick to your lane, keep going and don’t stop. Climb over the bumps in the road and keep your eyes on the finish line. Don’t worry about what others have already done or all the things they have going on, just do what God has called you to do. Follow Him, be faithful and finish well... and forget about the rabbit.

May we walk through fire with our arms lifted up in praise to our God
•
My family and friends recently had to evacuate because of fires in California. I can’t go home because the fire is still not contained. There are hundreds of people who have lost their homes. The air alone is so thick with smoke you can hardly breathe.
Yet, I rejoice.
How is it possible that we can be in this world, full of horrible disasters and find a glimmer of hope? Jesus. He came and died so we could look to the heavens and remember there is a way, there is light, and we are not alone in this dark hour.
Princesses, I know life can be good and how easy it is to smile on those lovely days when all is calm, when we are on the top of the mountain. But I also know, more often than not, we live in the valley, in the fire, in the storm. Do not forget the goodness of our God while you are in the dark. Remember the light and lift up your hands. I have felt fear in these days, that perhaps I will not have a home when I return, but friend, God is still with me. My real home is not on earth but in heaven, my comfort is not in my stuff but in Christ. It can be so easy to ask “Why did this happen?” but let us instead say, “I may not understand, but I will trust you, Lord and put my hope in you still, regardless of the outcome.” May we praise Him though we walk through fire, through the desert, through the valley and the storm. For God is still walking with us.
•
Isaiah 43:2-3
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned,
and the flame shall not consume you.
For I am the Lord your God,
the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.
•
A LITTLE POEM FOR YOU:
Put all your expectations at rest and
Trust in our God who always knows best
Though we may not see the end in sight
We will praise and rejoice through the night
For God is still worthy, not only in theory,
He will not grow tired, weak, or weary
Little ones, be encouraged and take your stand
For Jesus has the storm in the palm of his hand

There is a reason you are alive today.
•
I just want to say thank you for being here. Thank you for existing. The fact you opened your eyes this morning means there is still a reason for you to be here. There’s purpose for you today. I don’t know the reason but I believe God knows and that you are part of something bigger than you realize. You are a very much loved human being. Sometimes, you might not feel very loved, or seen, or known and kinda lonely most days... but the truth is you aren’t alone. You have us, other people here who care about you, and I don’t know if you believe it but God cares about you too. You really are so unique, you know? I’m just so excited we are here today, together. So my friend, face this day with courage and remember no matter what comes, there is a reason you are alive today. We believe in you.
•
Psalms 139:1-3
O LORD, you have searched me and known me!
You know when I sit down and when I rise up;
you discern my thoughts from afar.
You search out my path and my lying down
and are acquainted with all my ways.

Don’t wait for Mr. Perfect or for Mr. Right, only wait for Mr. I-Surrender-All-To-Christ
•
God wants us to run this race with Christ and for Christ, and if a man wants to run beside us, he better be heading in the right direction!
•
Princesses, a strong man is not one with muscles or who boasts in his greatness – he is one who boasts in his weakness, who fears, honors and obeys God, and who loves with all his heart. May you wait for a man who is not simply “Christian” but a true, surrendered man of God – a man who knows who they are and who their Father is!
•
Yet, I also pray for you, as Princesses. Prepare them, Lord, for your purpose. I pray you all would be women of obedience, full of the Spirit of God and of great faith, and would walk in love and wisdom towards all you encounter.
God, prepare them to be brides of Christ, that they may see clearly in all things, to discern, and not be deceived by the enemy (especially in relationships). Protect them, in this and all areas of their life, and reveal to them step-by-step, what is Your purpose for them. Help them to wait on You, to be still, to praise you everyday, and know your joy. Amen.
You are loved!

O is for Obey the Orders God Originally Ordained for you, Otherwise Offend God, Onsetting His Obligation (as a parent) to allow life to Overwhelm you (an Ordeal which Occurs Outside Of Oneness with His Holy Spirit), Or Obey and be Overjoyed by the Outcome of the Organic fruits of the Spirit, as it Overflows Onto Others - Obvious to all that you Operate as an Obedient Offspring Of Our Lord.
Oh snap! 😅
-
God has been challenging me in obedience lately, complete obedience (not just 87%, you know?). Last night, He gave me this message for you all about the letter “O”. Maybe it’s because I’m out here in Brazil teaching English to kids, and right now we are doing Letter of the Day, but in any case, today’s letter is “O”! ☺️ Princesses, obey Him in all things, surrender your way and will, and you will find Him in the place where you kneel. Let us serve our Lord on this day.
•
📖 1 Samuel 12:14
If you will fear the Lord and serve him and obey his voice and not rebel against the commandment of the Lord, and if both you and the king who reigns over you will follow the Lord your God, it will be well.

📖 John 3:36
Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.

I am the Lord your God; walk in my statutes, and be careful to obey my rules

A friend loves at all times
•
Friends can be such a gift to us, but they can also do or say things that hurt us. My heart has often come to grief at the actions of friends. I know I am a sensitive soul, but there are times I just don’t like my friends very much! Even so, God does not allow me to wallow in self-pity for long. “Why don’t you pray for them instead of complain about them?”, He say gently to my sore heart. •
Princesses, for you who are hurting because of a friend, I encourage you to forgive. In friendship, any pride or walls built between you two, become poison to the soul. Go love and be reconciled with your friend. Find ways to be a blessing to them, even if you don’t feel like it.
•
“But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return, and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, for He is kind to the ungrateful and the evil. Be merciful, even as your Father is merciful.” -Luke 6:35-36
•
If this is what the Lord says about our enemies, how much more so for those we call friends? Princesses, a friend loves at ALL times. Be the kind of friend you want others to be to you. If you want a faithful friend, then be one. If you want someone to forgive you, then forgive them. Not to sound cliche, but princesses, be the change you want to see in the world! ♥️ ...starting with those around you.

I see God in you
Though you know Him or not
Yes, though you know Him or not
I see God in youFor the master’s touch
Leaves its imprint
In every love formed
Made in His imageYou were brought to this earth
After He designed your tiny hands
Before your frame was known
He already knew your soul and
All the beauty inside of you.
Do you have any clue
Just how much God loves you?Inside your mama’s tummy
Inside this secret place
You were loved, loved, loved
And today there is a chase
For you.
Yes, for you.
For God wants you to know
You are still loved
You are worthy of love
You are seen and known
His signature is on your soul.
Yes, I see God in you.
I see Him
In your laughter
In your hair
In your eyes
In your careIn all the trees that sway with the wind
In the sea and the creatures living withinIn a moment of kindness
In a loving touch
In the warmth of a mother
In the gratitude for lunchIn the love between a man and his bride
In the forgiveness between enemy tribesIn the sigh of a child
In the joy of a dance
In the hands of a helper
In the foregoing of plans…
just to spend time with the one we love.
This is where we see God all around us. [Read Full Poem on www.toallyouprincesses.com]

You were not created to be isolated.
•
Princesses, let people in your world, to help you, to love you, to be your support. I know independence sounds really amazing, something to be proud of, but I’m learning that God didn’t make us to be that way. Doing it all will only make you exhausted, trying to be everything for everyone will only make you stressed, and never accepting help creates a lonely life. Do you really think that’s God’s plan for you?
•
“Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.”
Galatians 6:2
•
Princesses, I’m sure you love the feeling of giving, but I encourage you to learn to receive from the Lord, especially His gift of people. Being humble is not refusing help and saying “I’m okay, don’t worry about me.” Humility is learning to admit you need help and can’t do it alone! So, this week, share your burdens with a friend, be loved as you love, and let the Lord take care of you.
Be Blessed,
Katya

Don’t put your faith in your ability, but in God’s ability to do it through you.
—
Matthew 19:26
But Jesus looked at them and said, ‘With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.’”
-
Princesses, today I want to encourage you to trust in God’s Spirit working in you. This morning, you might be thinking, “How can I do this?” But princesses, know that God is with you. It’s not you who will do the impossible, but only God. He will be your strength when you are weak, He will give you the words when you can’t think, He will give you boldness and courage when you feel afraid, and will do wonders in your life if you put your faith in Him. Don’t give up!
-
Proverbs 3:5-6
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.”

God is not slow, He is patient.
—
“The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.”
2 Peter 3:9 ESV
-
God is patient, not in a rush like we are, and wise in the pace He walks in. His ways are higher than ours, His thoughts are greater. When His Spirit is in you and there is a fire burning in your heart to be used by Him for His glory, to help the broken, to go to the nations, you must remember He cares so much about you that He will take time to prepare you before He sends you. You may not be walking in your promises yet, but know He hasn’t forgotten, He is just patient. Tending to your soul like a gardener. Taking out the weeds and planting deep seeds.
-
My encouragement to you, Princesses is to be patient as He works. Step into His pace, pause and pray, wait on Him and let Him lead the way. It might take you longer to get to where you are going, but wouldn’t you much rather walk miles with Jesus than take the shortcut alone? :)
-
Remember, the Lord is your Shepherd. Put your faith in His wisdom and in His ways. Remain humble, in repentance, forgiving quickly and seeking Him always in all things. In His timing, you will see blossoms springing forth in your life. For now, let us rejoice. Though we don’t see the harvest, we know it is coming!

Do not be afraid to share your testimony. Your story is a treasure map; it leads people to Jesus.
—
Do you know about the woman at the well? Jesus sat there and a woman approached, to retrieve water. In summary, He spoke to her, told of her life, about the living water and that He was the Messiah. She left her water, ran to the city and shared about this encounter with Jesus. John 4:39 says, “many believed in Him because of the woman’s testimony.” But after meeting Him, having time with Jesus in their city, the people later said to her, “It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves and we know that this is indeed the Savior of the world.”
-
Imagine. This city welcomed Jesus because of the testimony of one woman. She didn’t have to tell the story of how she got saved. Rather, she spoke about the good news of Jesus, what He spoke to her and taught her, and the promise of eternal life.
-
Princesses, your testimony, your story with God is powerful. Don’t forget that or let fear say otherwise. Every single time God speaks or teaches you something, it is a miracle. Emmanuel! God is with us! How incredible is that? Share your story. Boast in Christ. Testify about His faithfulness. Let people know what God has done and is doing in your life. Don’t be afraid. You never know whose heart will be impacted by your story!

Be more beautiful on the inside than on the outside.
-
“In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”
Matthew 5:16
-
Isn’t it exhausting sometimes to appear beautiful? Make-up, nails polished, hair styled, matched garments, adored with jewels...
-
Some of you don’t know this, but I used to be a fashion model. Four years, it was my mission to follow Jesus to this dark place. God sent me from Los Angeles, to Chicago, and even London and I had opportunities to minister to many people during that season but it was so far from glamourous. Always trying to stay beautiful on the outside - it was draining. Always people wanting me to compromise my modest values and purity - it was a war. People seeing only my face and not my heart - it made me feel like nothing more than a mannequin.
-
Coming from a girl who has seen both sides, let me tell you girls it is so much more rewarding to be known as someone beautiful on the inside rather the outside. God says let our light shine, that our good works would make people praise God. Princesses, I so desire this. I pray we would be known for our kindness, patience, and our honesty. I pray we would be a set-apart people, known by the world as children of God because of the beauty that shines from within us. I pray God’s Spirit would continue to transform us everyday so we would even glow on the outside and glorify the Father in the way we live.
-
May we be so beautiful on the inside that it outshines how we look outside. Princesses, strive for this kind of beauty, the unfading beauty of a spirit dedicated to God.

Give even when you can’t afford to give.
-
“Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”
Luke 6:37-38
-
Something that has always fascinated me is how opposite God’s Kingdom is from our world. If you want to be forgiven, you need to forgive. If you want to be first, you need to be last. And the same goes with giving. When you have a need, that is when you give.—
I personally have experienced this. Last year, I was really struggling to make ends meet. Financially, I just didn’t have much in my pocket. But I did have some. God told me to give a portion of what I had and to monthly support someone else in need. It wasn’t much, and it felt a bit embarassing because it was so little, but I listened even though it was a sacrifice. Do you know every month God provided extra for me? It didn’t make sense, but I always had what I needed. The opposite also happened to me a couple years ago. I had stopped a donation to this organization because I thought I couldn’t afford it, even though God had told me to donate to them. After I did that, I went through such a dry season with my finances. I started donating again, and suddenly random checks came in the mail!
—
All this to say, the kingdom of God is like algebra. If you follow the formula, it always stays true. Give = it will be given to you. When you have your greatest need, fairhfully pay your tithes, don’t covet your resources (because they are God’s anyway) and learn to be a cheerful giver and princesses, just you watch and see what God will do.

Instead of complaining about your parents, start praying for them
-
When I was a teenager, I had a terrible relationship with my dad. He wasn't really around much when I was growing up because he was facing his own issues, but all I could see was how much he wasn't there for my mom and I. I had a lot of anger, for sure. But God wouldn't let me continue to dishonor my dad in my heart, my words nor my thoughts. He told me I needed to forgive my dad and to start praying for him. I didn't at first - too much pain - but with God's help I was able to begin that journey.
-
Right now, my dad and I have a great relationship because God told me to pray for him and love him. I couldn't even say this when I was 16 but I love my dad, I really do. Haha but don't get me wrong, he is far from perfect, he still does things that challenge my Christian attitude, but now I know he is not only my dad, he is God's son and I continue to pray for him.
-
God wants us to treat our parents as His children - to honor them in actions, in words, and in our attitude. It begins in the heart. You know Jesus says to love our enemies, right? For some of you, your enemies are your parents (let's be real). I'm challenging you today to ask God to help you forgive your parents, for Him to heal your heart from any pain they've caused (or continue to cause you), and to teach you how to daily love the people that gave you life. I challenge you to honor them from your heart, from the inside out... not because they deserve it, but because love has been freely given to you, so freely give to them.
-
“Honor your father and mother” (this is the first commandment with a promise), “that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land.”
Ephesians 6:2-3

There is no better place to be than where God sends you.
-
The road may be difficult to travel, may take a lot of courage to walk, and may have many obstacles trying to hold you back but listen when God says to GO. It's better to take His hand and take risks than to stay put because of fear. It's like the master who gave coins to his servants when he left home. Two servants invested it (taking risk) and was able to receive so much from it, but one buried it, afraid of his master, afraid of taking risk.
-
If God has spoken to you about something, you feel this restlessness to do it, then go and be brave! Don't bury your calling. Don't bury your gift. Don't hide your face when God calls to you. Shine the light inside of you, come to His voice and speak with boldness. Girl, you are a daughter of the King. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't because you CAN do all things through Christ. You will have the grace and strength to do all God has asked of you because He is with you. ♥️ He loves you, Princesses.
-
"You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you. These things I command you, so that you will love one another."
John 15:16-17

Perhaps one of the greatest battles is from the bed to the closet.
-
I love the movie "The War Room"! After watching it, I started praying in my closet too. Some days though, I noticed it was so tempting to just stay in bed, covers over my head, and pray from my pillow. The struggle is real, ya'll! However, on the days I fought my own flesh to walk into my war room, it was powerful. I'm reminded of the day Jesus was about to be taken to the cross and he asked his disciples to pray with Him. They fell asleep... more than once! It's a sacrifice to stay up, to pray, to have communion with God, but in those times we do get into our secret place with Him, it changes our lives and others. The closet is symbolic of intimate time with Christ, its not necessarily about location. In any case, there is a battle against that time because our enemy and our flesh are fighting what our spirit wants but whatever your alone time with God looks like, I encourage you to keep fighting for it. Even if you have to knock down your own self to get there! Nothing is more important than winning this war.
-
"Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you, declares the Lord"
Jeremiah 29:12-14

It's so good for us to take risks in our lives. It helps us to get out of our normal routine and along the way, we discover something about ourselves. I'm a neutral, earth tones kind of girl but I recently tried a bright red nail polish and found I really liked it. A friend encouraged me to try something new and I went for it! In our lives, God is going to be that friend that says, "Go out there and try it!" The bible is full of men and women God who took risks because God said to. I'm not sure why many people believe once becoming Christian we do the same thing over and over and never have adventures. Our God is a God who encourages us to get out of our box!
-
So Princesses, take risks. Don't worry what people may say or think. I mean, don't go and do drugs 👀 but don't let the fear of failing or being different keep you from really living. Trust God, be brave, and have fun with Jesus. If He says to get out of your boat, you will be able to walk on water!
-
"He said, 'Come.' So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus."
Matthew 14:29
