15:13 May God, the giver of hope, fill you with continual joy and peace because you trust in Him--so that you may have abundant hope through the power of the Holy Spirit. 但 願 使 人 有 盼 望 的 神 、 因 信 、 將 諸 般 的 喜 樂 平 安 、 充 滿 你 們 的 心 、 使 你 們 藉 著 聖 靈 的 能 力 、 大 有 盼 望 。

"When people cease to believe in God, they do not believe in nothing; they believe in anything!  G.K. Chesterton

He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he causes me to stand on the heights. 他使我的脚快如母鹿的蹄，又使我在高处安稳。Psalm 18:33

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones. Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the first fruits of all your crops. then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine.
你要专心仰赖耶和华，不可倚靠自己的聪明，在你一切所行的事上都要认定他，他必指引你的路。不要自以为有智慧，要敬畏耶和华，远离恶事。这便医治你的肚脐，滋润你的百骨。你要以财物和一切初熟的土产尊荣耶和华，这样，你的仓房必充满有余，你的酒榨有新酒盈溢。Proverbs 3:5-10

Courage is not defined by those who fought and did not fall, but by those who fought, fell, and rose again.
 

抛弃 Rejection

Though my father and mother forsake me, the LORD will receive me. 虽然我的父母离弃我，耶和华却收留我。Psalm 27:10

From Steve Manuel:

"Don't burden people with the false expectation of love, approval, and acceptance. The LORD can use others as a channel/gift, but you are not expecting it and are not disappointed when you don't receive it because at your core, you are secure and loved."

F. i am not used to this.

But,

15 "For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!”

When we agree with rejection, we oppose with what God says about us.

Jesus was rejected and abandoned (and had a broken heart) and dealt with it , so that we wouldn't have to deal with it. It wasn't an accident, Jesus put rejection to death on the cross.

 “Scorn has broken my heart and has left me helpless; I looked for sympathy, but there was none, for comforters, but I found none.” 辱骂伤了我的心，我忧愁难过；我希望有人同情，却一个也没有；我希望有人安慰，还是找不到一个。

Psalm 69:20

God knows what you want to do because of your rejection and He overcame it. 

希望 HOPE

I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. 我还是相信，在活人之地，我可以看见耶和华的恩惠。 Psalm 27:13

CUTTING THEM ↓

"Love each other not politely, but deeply." -Steve Manuel

God bottles our tears?!

You number my wanderings; 我多次流离，你都数算；
Put my tears into Your bottle; 你把我的眼泪装在你的皮袋里;
Are they not in Your book? 这不都记在你的册子上吗？

Psalm 56:8 NKJV

God's thoughts towards us outweigh the number of grains of sand?

How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them, 神啊！你的意念对我多么珍贵（“珍贵”或译：“深奥”），数目何等众多。
Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand. 如果我数点，它们比海沙更多；
When I am awake, I am still with you. 我睡醒的时候，仍然与你同在。
Psalm 139:17-18

The Parable of the Persistent Widow Luke 18

JOY

"You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands." 你们欢欢喜喜而出来，平平安安梦引导。大山小山必在你们面前发声歌唱；田野的树木也都拍掌。
Isaiah 55:12

17Though the fig tree should not blossom And there be no fruit on the vines, Though the yield of the olive should fail And the fields produce no food, Though the flock should be cut off from the fold And there be no cattle in the stalls, 18Yet I will exult in the LORD, I will rejoice in the God of my salvation. 19The Lord GOD is my strength, And He has made my feet like hinds' feet, And makes me walk on my high places. For the choir director, on my stringed instruments.

无花果树纵不发芽，葡萄树不结果，橄榄树无所出，田里无收成，圈内没有羊，棚里也没有牛， 我却要因耶和华欢喜，以救我的　神为乐。 主耶和华是我的力量，他使我的脚快如母鹿的蹄，在高地上行走。交诗班长，用丝弦的乐器伴奏。 Habakkuk 3:18

PEACE

You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you. 专心倚靠你的，你必保护他一切平安，因为他倚靠你。

Isaiah 26:3

Cast your burden upon the Lord and He will sustain you;
He will never allow the righteous to be shaken. 你要把你的重担卸给耶和华，他必扶持你；他永远不会让义人动摇。

Psalm 55:22

Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. 信就是对所盼望的事的把握，是还没有看见的事的明证。

Hebrews 11:1

Time to get free.

Shake the devil off your back and be free. It’s our birthright.

God created you to dance, not to crawl through life with the devil on your back. NO IF, ANDS, OR BUTS.

G. Boyd

Grace Filled ❤. Ask God show you the source of your negativity (-). Turn everything over to God; to not is to play God.

You release them.

Vengeance is God's. Release it. Our job is to be free.

Anything we go to other than Jesus Christ to get our core needs met is idolatry.

The Lord is my shepard, I lack NOTHING. F-ck you Satan!
