Mark: 4:39 39 And He got up and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, Hush, be still." And the wind died down and it became perfectly calm. Give God the storms in your life and let Him say "Peace be still."
Good morning world; Today is another great day that God has blessed us with. Let us rejoice and be glad in this day.
Isaiah 40:31But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not faint.
Be encouraged; God is near and He is our strength when we are weak.
This book makes a compelling argument for the value of prayers in the lives of all believers regardless of religious persuasions. The non-believer can go to God in sincere prayer with a repentant heart; God will hear and answer if the prayer request aligns with the will of God. If one were to study prayer from an objective, psychological point of view, or even study prayer from a historical point of view, prayer has a definite value.

1 Peter 1:7; 4:12
That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
Today's message reminds us that in this life we will face trails and they are to produce true faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ
If the question was raised, are the trials we face necessary? Yes they are in that they are purging us of our sins that can and will cause believers to carry unnecessary weight while running this Christian race.
It is noteworthy to say, unless we have been tried in the fire of life, then we as believers lack the knowledge of how strong our faith is neither is there a testimony of how the Lord brought you through the fire.
The fiery trials of life give believers additional reasons to praise God for His goodness, grace and mercy. This is because it is the Lord who brings us through these trials, and with each trial if purifying us so that at the end of life's journey we will come forth as pure gold.
The fiery trials of life are looked upon as the hand of God shaping us into that smooth pottery of clay. He is the potter and we are the clay.

Luke 1:28
...Thou are blessed and highly favored, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou are among women.
The scene for today's lesson study is the Mary the mother of Jesus being visited by the angel of the Lord informing Mary of her very important assignment as it relates to the promised Messiah's birth. Mary had found favor with God the Father and was chosen to be the human gateway for Christ's birth to fulfill the mission of paying man's sin-debt.
Believers have found favor with God the Father in that we are chosen to be His peculiar people set apart from this world and be the lit candles shining the light of Christ our Savor. Believers collectively are the city that is set upon a hill calling all unbelievers to come and join the family of God as His sons and daughters.
Believers being blessed and highly favored as God's elect, we wear the righteous garment of salvation because all believers have been washed in the shed blood of Jesus Christ. Being blessed and highly favored, believers will spend eternity in the presence of God and will have glorified bodies like Christ. Being the blessed and highly favored of God we were chosen from the foundation of the world as God knew from the beginning who would accept His salvation invitation to live with Him forever.
Believers, we are the blessed and highly favored of God as His special people.

You gotta get up after the fall
And walk with Jesus through it all.
I learned to surrender to him
I Let his spirit come in now I’m born again!
Through trials and tribulations I
Fall down and cry
But I know there’s a God, I feel him deep inside
although I got these problems in life
I pray to him and
Keep my head up high
The bills keep coming, the haterz keep hatin
But I’m a walk with Christ and change my situation
Like the Job, after they took it all
He kept the faith and got blessed after the fall
You gotta get up after the fall
And walk with Jesus through it all.
The enemy aint playin no games
So you can’t stay the same you gotta grow and change
Put on the whole armor of God
It’s real out here yo, times is hard
You want Gods guidance, light and protection
Spiritual resurrection
Don’t be out there all alone in isolation
Cause that’s mental and spiritual incarceration
Christ came for soul emancipation
That sound good let me say it again
Christ came for soul emancipation
So praise the Lord and let your soul ascent c’mon!

By Phenola Moore
I developed earlier than most girls my age. In the 5th grade, I was 5’2” and had the adult physique to go along with the height. Don’t worry, my parents kept a watchful eye on me to make sure my womanly body didn’t rob me of my childhood innocence. :>) Eventually, I would reach 5’8”and my body continued to develop with my height.
Needless to say, children aren’t too kind to others who look outside what they perceive as normal. The taunting and isolation from the popular groups played a toll on my self-esteem that made an indelible mark on my soul. But I didn’t realize the depth of it until I reached adulthood.
In order to release this pain, I wrote down my experiences and how I felt through writing. First, I was inspired to write articles and poems that developed into an online magazine, Press On! Webzine, www.pressonwebzine.com.
And later, I compiled my poems in Reveal the Real You Poetry Collection. There it was in black and white, my internal struggles expressed in poems.
Poems like “Can You Handle the New Me?“ reflects me embracing my self worth as I learned to accept the internal and external me. “A Conversation With Survival,” addressed the inner war I went through after my eldest sister suddenly passed away. “Destiny” reminds us that we are on a journey. And when we think we can’t go any further, “Strength” reminds us of the inner force that pushes us forward. These are just a few of the poems that will inspire you to look within yourself to reveal the real you.
Oprah said during the final episode of “The Oprah Winfrey Show,” that everybody has a calling and our job is to find out what it is and get to doing it. Writing is my calling and I hope these poems in Reveal the Real You Poetry Collection,” encourage you to push past any obstacles and walk in yours.
