Slay Doubt Challenge - Chapter 6 Reflections

Hello all

Today we continue with my reflections from Slay Doubt by Detola Amure.

Navigating your past

We live in a fallen world where bad things happen. God never promised us that our lives would be easy, but He promised to always be there with us. He wants to turn your pain around for your good and for His glory, if you will let him.

This chapter delved into how past events affect our lives. Detola encourages that we change our perspective to that of God's because God can and does use all our experiences ultimately for our good.

It was an excellent reminder that I can either remain bitter about past events or let God use those same events to shape my future. It also made me check my heart to see if I'd truly forgiven and released the pain of past events from my heart.

Hello and update

Hello and Happy New Year It's 2019 and I realise it's been a long, long while :) since I've posted anything here. A lot has happened in my life, but my heart has been coming back to this blog and the need to start writing again, so write I will. Writing is one of my first loves and I intend to revive this love using this blog :) To that end, I will start by putting up posts on things on my heart, challenges I'm involved in - currently doing a 30 Day Minimalist Challenge, reading As a man thinketh booklet by James Allen for 15 days straight - goals I want to achieve, amongst a few. Anyway, now I've put it out there I will be posting on this blog for 90 days straight. Love BelovedEsther

Happy New Month

Hello, How are you doing? Can you believe it, we're in the second half of the year, just like that and what an eventful year it's been. It feels like only yesterday when we were happily chanting happy new year and looking forward with expectation. Forget about what’s happened; don’t keep going over old history. Be alert, be present. I’m about to do something brand-new. It’s bursting out! Don’t you see it? Isaiah 43:18 What a challenging year it's been. From the natural disasters reported at the start of the year, to the current global pandemic, to the current fight for justice for the lives lost at the hands of those in authority. Faced with these uncertainties, and what we now term the new normal, many don't know how they'll make it through, but I'd like to encourage you to keep pressing forward despite all the challenges. With less than six months to go, there's no telling what you and I can accomplish in between that time. Don't give up hope, kee...
