If you accept Jesus as your LORD and Savior, you promise to give Him your whole life - all aspects of it. As a Christian, your workplace is not just where you do a job. It is a ministry that Jesus has called you to do for His kingdom. No matter what type of work Jesus calls you to perform, it is essential that you bring prayer, as Jesus did, into your daily walk with Him.

Taking faith to your workplace also means you seek to please God in your decision-making rather than other people. We believe in a risen Lord. Jesus is present among us. When we represent him, verbally or non-verbally, we introduce someone to the risen Christ.

Make Time for Jesus at Work

Matthew 28:19-20 says: “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”

Jesus expressed these words to His disciples ...

Differences are part of the Creator’s gift. I am so appreciative that I have been given a unique set of skills. When I think about the talents of others, I am grateful that there are so many differences in the world.

Even when I disagree with other’s thoughts or actions, I do not take these differences personally. I am glad some people experience the world in a way that is different from mine. This lets people see solutions that might be hard to recognize or contribute ideas that might not have entered my mind.

Because people are so unique, our world is a better place. How dull would it be if everyone and everything in this world were identical? When I think about that, I can find the great beauty in the world today.

I see myself as a kid coloring an image. Instead of filling all the lines in one color, I use the whole crayon box to draw inside and outside the lines. Every color and shade, however distinct, enhances more depth to the picture. Through choice and differences,...

As Christian women, relationships are central to our lives, whether with family, friends, colleagues, or fellow believers. These connections provide support, strength, and a sense of belonging, especially when rooted in faith. One of the essential elements of these relationships is the power of encouragement and building one another up. In 1 Thessalonians 5:11 (KJV), we are given a clear instruction: "Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do." This verse serves as a beautiful reminder of the importance of encouraging and strengthening one another in our daily walk with Christ.

Relationships that offer comfort and edification can be a true blessing in a world filled with challenges, uncertainties, and negativity. Let’s explore how we can apply this principle in our relationships, ensuring we live out God’s command to lift each other and build stronger, faith-centered connections.

The Power of Encouragement

Encouragement is one of the most po...

Do you often find yourself feeling uncomfortable and self-conscious in social situations? If your shyness is holding you back from enjoying yourself and connecting with others, it is time to start working on building your confidence. With some dedicated effort and practice, you can tap into your inner strength and finally start living the fulfilling life you deserve.

By following the steps below, you can overcome your shyness in a healthy, gradual manner:

1. Increase your self-confidence. A certain sense of satisfaction comes with feeling good about oneself. It makes socializing with others a more pleasant experience. When you feel secure, you can confidently express your thoughts and ideas because you know they are worthwhile and have something valuable to contribute to the conversation.

• You can enhance self-confidence by developing your body image, successfully pursuing your goals, and establishing a rewarding romantic relationship with a partner.

People learn and take in information in numerous ways. While some people love reading, others would rather listen. Some enjoy seeing things via illustrations, while others want a personal experience to feel something before they truly understand them.

The classic four learning styles are:

• Audio
• Kinesthetic
• Verbal
• Visual

Generating compelling content works best when you find a way to say the same thing in many ways, appealing to each learning style. Sending a message through various channels makes it easier to reach all types of learners and easier to put out additional content with less effort.

An advertising rule called the Seven Times Factor describes how viewers need to see an ad seven times before truly observing it. People need to observe a message more than seven times to remember it. This means you need to adopt the value of saying the same thing in several approaches.

You can use the same compelling content again and again.

You may well feel like a brok...

I don't know about you, but there are times when I feel less than fine. Low, grouchy, fed-up, and bored are the words I use to describe what I am like on those days, and I am almost certainly not the greatest company. The thing is, times like those are part of being human – it is not an elective. There will always be off days, and that is all right.

But what happens after you get a whole string of those off-days, maybe lasting weeks, months, or even years?

Too many women say that they are in a rut, feel stuck, fed-up, or bored and admit that they do not want things to be that way. But we do not know what to do to change. That is the problem. When you are in a rut, you do not have the strength or motivation to shift things for the better. And it is hard to find the insight or resources you must to do that jump.

Here are things to do right now to climb, or better yet, leap, out of the rut:

1. Do things differently

Life has a tendency to run smoothly after we establish syst...

God can do all things. No purpose of God fails. There are times when this is a complicated truth to acknowledge. In particular, when you are praying for what seems to be in line with His will.

You are not advancing the request like putting a coin in a vending machine. You realize that God has the free choice to say “no”. You recognize this truth.

But you are praying for what you know based on Scripture to be His will. Perhaps you are asking God to restore your marriage or to deliver your spouse from alcoholism. Maybe you are begging Him to heal your child from a horrible disease.

The God that we serve does not speak without then acting. If God reveals that He will do something, He surely will. However, years or even decades may pass with God repeatedly saying no to your request. There are countless reasons why He denies us something we truly want.

From time to time, it is to grow your faith, such as with Joseph. Genesis 50:20 KJV tells us that, after more than a decade ...

My tolerance for myself and others grows each day as I release unrealistic expectations, and develop patience.

I am accepting and forgiving of myself. I continue to have more patience daily by simply living in the present and letting go of the impossible. My acceptance and leniency of others have increased as well by releasing expectations I place on them.

If I create impossible expectations for myself or others, I set us all up for failure. Having extreme expectations is my mind's effort to control the uncontrollable. By releasing the need to control, I can let go of my expectations and be myself.

I focus, instead, on facing what develops in my life from a fresh viewpoint. I am ready for all life brings my way without setting limitations. Concentrating on appreciating the journey permits me to be more understanding and accepting and, therefore, more loving and thoughtful. In this way, I can enhance my love for myself and others.

Today I concentrate on living in the mom...

Negative people are burdened with various lusts and issues that they are either not dealing with or are using to influence and control their relationship with you.

They might cause stress, scandals, struggles, or conflicts. You may experience repeated violations of your boundaries, such as manipulation, verbal abuse, or physical, emotional, or spiritual harm. Spending time with them can leave you feeling drained and fatigued.

You probably know more than your fair share of negative people! Since they are everywhere, it is important to understand how to live with them.

Dealing with troublesome individuals who disrupt our lives is covered in many Scriptures.

In 1 Corinthians 15:33, the Apostle Paul urges us, “Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.’”

In Proverbs 22:24-25, we are warned, “Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man thou shalt not go: Lest thou learn his ways, and get a snare to thy soul.”

Negative people can have ...
