Lord, you are a wealth of beautiful things such as love and mercy and kindness. I can find so many more valuable things in You than I can ever find in this world. You are love, joy, goodness,forgiveness, and faithfulness. You are great in size and mercy and power. 

It is not my job to keep track of offenses or wrongdoings. In fact that is the opposite of love and that is not what it says in 1 Corinthians. Our job is to forgive and it is God's job to work everything else out.

Love:

"It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs." (1 Corinthians 13:5 NIV)

"And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors." (Matthew 6:12 KJV)

God did not give you a talent so you could hide it and keep it to yourself. So do not let the enemy scare you or try to keep you from sharing what God wants to give to His people. 

If we focus on our setbacks, we will be set back.

If we focus on our limitations, we will be limited.

I have been so discouraged before when things don't work out as planned. God is helping me to learn to keep getting back up and push past the discouragement.

If at first I don't succeed, then God has plans for something greater. :) 

"Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen." (Ephesians 3:20, 21 ESV)

"Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 3:13, 14 ESV)

Whole hearted commitment brings fulfillment and joy of life.
