It’s one thing to think it. Some days you just need to say it out loud…
“My purpose is greater than my pain.
My destiny outweighs my history.
My hope is greater than my hardship.
God’s grace outweighs my shame.
My blessings are bigger than my burdens.
God’s favor outweighs my failure.”
Joni 💗 Grief to Life

These verses were in my devotional today. Your post made me think about these verses in a different light.
“And I was with you in weakness and in fear and much trembling, and my speech and my message were not in plausible words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, so that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.”
1 Corinthians 2:3-5 ESV
Your purpose, destiny, hope, grace, blessings, and favor are from God Joni. He has amazing plans for you and your life.
Reblogged this on Matthew Winters (Comeback Pastor) and commented:
Some of us need these reminders from Joni’s “Grief to Life” blog.
I love it when I hear of people not getting stuck in their pain. I love it when people grieve for a period, but then pick up and move on. There are no obstacles in this life that are not meant to be gotten over, learned from maybe, but gotten over. It is the overcomers that share their stories that give us the most cheer to go on when we approach the difficulties that are sometimes strewn in our way. 😉
Yes! Not always easy to believe, but it definitely helps to tell ourselves that regardless 💕
