Tend to the garden God has given you 🌱. Enjoy the journey of nurturing and growing the portion God allotted to you.
“Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.” -Luke 12:15 NIV
Others may have bigger gardens or more “beautiful” flowers, but God will only be focused on how faithful you were with what He gave you. At the end of this temporary life, may He say to you:
“Well done, good and faithful servant” (Matt 25:21)
Who holds memories fond and bitter of a time that once was, but is no more. You remember the sweet days when promises were made and a future was drawn of the happily ever after. But that vision is now destroyed by a man who walked away.
He’s happy, flourishing, and free. You’re hurt, devastated, & disappointed. But God wants you to know that you’re not a side character. He’s collecting every tear you shed in a bottle.
“Come here, daughter” He calls. He wants you to see that in a book He’s handwritten for you a glorious destiny.
This valley is not your end, but the beginning of a new chapter, and if you clasp hands with God you will see how this trial can be used for your good, to mold you and purify you like gold into something more beautiful.
Forgive and let go. Make room for what God has in store for you.
Sincerely, Nelly 🤍

P.S. Dealing with heartbreak isn’t easy. God has been there in my darkest nights when all I could do was cry. I couldn’t find the words to express the pain, only tears would suffice.
💧You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book. - Psalm 56:8 NLT💧
God is with you in your pain. He sees every tear you cry and saves them in a bottle. Cling onto Him in your despair. Let Him carry you in His arms and heal you of every disappointment. You soul may feel shattered, but He is able to put the pieces back together.
🕊️He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake. - Psalm 23:3 NKJV 🕊️
Life may not have gone the way you expected it to. You expected yourself to be at a difference place, having accomplished more things and gotten further in life. Instead all you see are the missed opportunities and failures.
But you need to know that God is not done with you yet. In this process He hasn't given up on you, so you shouldn't give up on you either. [Learn] from your past mistakes and do better, [draw] closer to God more than ever before. If you trust Him with your story, He can make it better and more spectacular than you could've ever imagined.
✨ "He sought God…and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him prosper." - Chronicles 26:5 NKJV✨
If it were up to us, there are people we would still be close with, career changes we wouldn’t have made, and risks we wouldn’t have taken, yet life pushed us into a corner and we had to part with people, places, and circumstances against our original intention.
Does that mean our life is ruined? No! Let’s not forgot that God is completely aware of everything that’s happening, and He wants what’s best for you. Jesus said that in this life we will have trials, but we shouldn’t fear because He overcame the world (John 16:33).
That means you can have peace in every situation because He overcame it, so in Him you have victory 🎺.
God knows what’s best for you, He also knows what will bring you the most joy. Even though things look dark right now, trust that better is on the way. In the meantime:
✨“My brothers and sisters, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.” - James 1:2-4✨

P.S I’m in the process of moving which is why it’s taking me longer than intended to post the next video, but this next one will be my longest so far cause I couldn’t cut it down as much as I tried 😂 until then 💕
What burdens are you carrying? Anything that is causing you stress and anxiety is not meant to be upheld by you, but by God. Some of you have carried the weight for so long that you’ve learned to adapt your life around it, but today God wants you to let it go! These burdens are a weight that slow you down!
At first it may be uncomfortable, but give it to God again, and again, and again until you stop picking it up.
Jesus came to give us rest. He said to give him our yoke and in exchange he gives us his. This is a blessing; he says
✨“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." -Matthew 11:30 NKJV✨

NEW BEGINNINGS IN THE HORIZON
