Frustration often arises when expectations fall short, especially when we place trust in others only to feel deceived. This experience can bring disappointment, leaving us with lingering questions and unresolved emotions. But God’s purpose for these moments goes deeper. Each frustration reveals something within us—unmet desires, hidden motives, or misplaced trust—that God is ready to address. In times of frustration, let’s not let guilt, fear, or condemnation take hold. Instead, see it as God’s invitation to growth. Use it to examine your heart and motives, asking the Lord to reveal what may lie dormant, shaping how you respond. Take responsibility for your actions, seek forgiveness, and allow God to transform the situation. Remember that nothing in God’s hands goes to waste; He uses even our mistakes to refine us. The Bible reminds us, “Encourage and rebuke with all authority, do not let anyone despise you” (Titus 2:15). In these words, find strength to stand firm, embracing God’s...

Blessed by God Through every trial, through every storm, In each other’s arms, we are safe and warm. God wove our hearts with threads so tight, Bound by His love, we shine His light. When one of us stumbles, the other will rise, A bond unbroken beneath heaven’s skies. With strength like the mountains and grace like the sea, You stand beside me, setting me free. When days grow heavy and shadows fall, You are my answer to God’s gentle call. A sister’s love, so pure and strong, Carries me, even when the road seems long. God gave me you to help me through, His love in your smile, His spirit in all you do. Together we conquer, together we stand, Sisters forever, by God’s guiding hand. So when you feel weary, just look above, For in His grace, there’s endless love. With you, my sister, I know I’ll survive, For God’s strength in you keeps my spirit alive. Ruth Guzman (Guadalupe)

- Servant Heart - Busy Bee - Tag Along Lord help us to identify those that you want us to do life with. As we get closer to the New season help us to see with a clear vision. Hear with an open heart, and walk with a steady step. There are times when I see more than what I am ready to see. I see their motives, the tricks, the old self, their habits, the fear, and insecurities. How the natural man is entangled, how the flesh comes and takes over. The time has come to move forward. To take the steps of faith. Leaving old self behind. We can no longer live on yesterday's manna. We can not carry the new wine on old wineskin. You are calling us higher. For greater things like this, we would do. Let us not be so busy running from here to there, like busy bees; that we take for granted the lesson we ought to learn. Let me look inside my own heart and expose what lay there dormant. Waiting for the right time to be awakened. Let me do a self-inventory and check my own motives....
