Hello Beautiful People,
Holidays are upon us and we often hear that everyone is in a chaotic fit to get that Thanksgiving meal set or start working on getting all those gifts set aside for Christmas. We are pushed to buy things that we can’t afford, however, the pressure is to impress and overspend. In the pressure, we feel that we are not good enough so failure mentality kicks in full effect. When we hear all these different voices coming at us to buy, to impress, and to live above or means?
We call out to the Father in heaven and give thanks for all that He has done for us. Giving thanks is not saying that you are satisfied or settling for less. The Lord knows that I don’t have it all together, none of us do but as long as I lean on Him, I know that I’m moving forward.

There have been times when I have felt I have no value and that I didn’t matter. In God’s word, I matter and you matter.
I am your Creator. You were in my care even before you were born. Isaiah 44:2a (CEV)
Rick Warren really taught how we do matter, it changed my perspective.
I am not famous, not popular, nor a billionaire and do not a very large circle of friends or family. My mother always told me that if you have one true friend you are blessed. In the Bible it says in Ephesians 1:4 (MSG) God created me to love me long before [God] laid down earth’s foundations, he had us in mind, had settled on us as the focus of his love . . .
“I was made to last forever, God has long-range plans for my life.”
What On Earth am I here for?

Rick Warren’s online study is really open to finding my purpose in God. “It’s not about me it’s all about God.” We all matter to God.
