Leave The Results To God

Are you doing your best? Are you expecting the best? Have you done all that you can do? In the words of Norman Vincent Peale, “When you have done all that you can do, don’t try to do any more, just ‘stand.’ Relax, stop, be quiet, don’t fuss about it; you have done everything possible; leave the results to God.”

Yes, when you have done everything possible to change your life, when you have done everything possible to conquer your fears, when you have done everything possible to increase yourself, to move yourself up, to do things that matter, to become who you were created to be, leave the results to God. Why is that? Because you are not in charge of your life. God is in charge of your life. God is in control, not you.

Love Connects

Love connects. Love brings people together. It lifts people up, not down. If love is not making you happy, if love is not bringing you closer to yourself, if love is not revealing who you really are to you, then it is not love. It is something else.

Love is meant to build your life, not destroy it. Love is not a destroyer. Love is a builder. According to Suzy Kassem, “Love is meant to lift you up, not tear you down. It is meant to strengthen you, not weaken you.”
