The purpose of prayer is to seek The Lord's face…not as cryptic social media posts to gain attention and manipulate the emotions and perspectives of people 

“When You said, “Seek My face,” My heart said to You, “Your face, LORD, I will seek.””  • Psalms 27:8 NKJV

EXPOSED!

Challenges don’t change you, they expose you. Just like a tube of toothpaste…whatever is inside of you comes out when squeezed. #Evonika❤ღ❤ 

“A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.”

— Luke 6:45 NKJV

When one is enamored with their past, they'll tend to base their feelings of nostalgia with how they perceive their present situations and  relationships through rose colored glasses…thinking the past was better than it really was. Emotions are fickle and temporary. It's not wise to make life altering decisions based upon  feelings of nostalgia and regret. #Evonika❤ღ❤ 

We live in a generation that only desires to look at the surface value of a situation or person, when making life changing decisions. If it requires a significant amount of effort in order discover the innate value of something or someone, impatience will overwhelm those who want something of value to manifest immediately. Just as miners have to dig through layers to obtain diamonds and gold…there will be times we may have to put in some effort to dig through layers to recognize the value of something or someone. However, since many people have the "I got to have it now!" mentality of instant gratification…they give up because they don't want to put in effort but want what appears to have value on the surface to grab their attention instantaneously. The drawback to instantaneous gratification, attraction, or surface value… is that once that decision is made, you have no idea what lies beneath the layers until it's too late, and then you realize you gave up too soon on someone or something else because you didn't put in effort to dig through the layers. We often don't see the value in something or someone, until what's beneath their layers becomes evident after seeking something better because  of the surface value. Today and always, be willing to put in some effort to seek the value beneath the layers , instead of looking for the next best thing based on the veneer surface...you don't want to live a life of regrets, forfeiting value based on impatience, seeking the next best thing ... effort is required to have something of lasting value.#Evonika❤ღ❤ 

It is natural to desire certain things, but it is unnatural to allow them to govern our actions. That's why we need the supernatural help & guidance of the Holy Spirit to daily, to help us deal with the natural in ways that are in line with the Supernatural Word / Will of GOD.#Evonika❤ღ❤   “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law.”

- Galatians 5:22-23

“But the Lord stood with me and strengthened me, so that the proclamation might be fully made through me and all the Gentiles might hear. So I was rescued from the lion’s mouth.”

— 2 Timothy 4:17
