Have you ever had those days where you are questioning giving up due to life circumstances? You are just trying to keep your head above water to make it to the next day. You’re tired. You’re sad. You’re hurting. You don’t know the next step.

 

I’ve been there a lot more than what I would like to admit. 

 

But God… 

 

He is with you. He’s never left your side. He sees your tears. He’s felt your pain and you’re still his favorite.   

 

Today is your day so lift your head high and stand tall. God has you in his hand and he is working on your behalf. Instead of giving up today, back up and re-punt the ball, don’t walk off the field. The problems in your life are TEMPORARY not PERMANENT and remind yourself of that everyday. Choose to be HAPPY today, it will change your life one second at a time. 

 

Below is a verse that got me through the roughest time in my life. It’s even tattooed on my wrist as a daily reminder: 

 

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

                                              – Jeremiah 29:11
