Matthew 5:8 MSG

“You’re blessed when you get your inside world-your mind and heart- put right. Then you can see God in the outside world”.

Just because you are highly favored, wonderfully made and God’s beloved does not mean that you won’t have days that blow chunks of hot tartar sauce.

When we crazy stuff is happening, we are sometimes quick to say, “God is punishing me, or God is trying to get me back”. No baby His ways are not our ways and if something crazy is happening it is probably just another test; you know a pop quiz from God.

Pass the test boo so you can qualify for the promotion. Learn to look forward to passing the tests because they are always followed by promotion.

Let me give you my test taking tips to passing tests.
Start from a posture of peace. Gather yourself, before you go off. Then open your mouth and remind yourself of how good God has been to you in the past. My granny once told me that if God did it once He will do it again. So you are feeling low, stressed, defeated, pressured, or maybe you are just plain pissed the heck off…. Stop and open your mouth and tell yourself about the time God helped you, saved you, blessed you, covered you, fed you, clothed you, healed you, loved you, right there in the face of the enemy.

Remind yourself how God made a way just for you, out of nowhere, time and time and time again. Learn to encourage yourself, and then after you have thanked God for all that, ask Him about the trouble, I mean the test.

Once you can get your heart and mind lined up with your spirit, you can then see God’s hand leading you to the answers for that pop quiz.

This is Tris no H reminding you that All is Well, so encourage yourself. Remember love is a verb. Oh yeah by the way, if God was trying to get you…… baby you would have already been got!

Peace
