Pastor's Insightful and Powerful Comments On God's Timing And Our Ambition

A pastor shared some truly insightful and powerful comments on God’s timing and our ambition and drive as a society. Pastor Phillip Anthony Mitchell mentioned how and why God’s timeline is always best and why sometimes having extreme ambition and drive is not always good. Watch the short video to hear what the pastor had to say.

It's been said that time is money. Our society follows that old axiom with much passion and zeal. Everyone knows what they want, and they want it now, immediately, and without even the slightest delay. If there is a momentary pause or delay, someone else is getting ahead of me, or I might not have the newest, biggest or best of something.

Most people today, without a doubt, think that way. However, as most Christians have likely already discovered, God does not operate and adhere to our timeline. He has his schedule, and it may not always align with our desires.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Pastor Phillip Anthony Mitchell mentions God's timing during a conversation with Christian recording artist Lecrae. He also explains why people who want things now are often entirely wrong. His insight and wisdom come from his personal experience and struggles.

“Some of God’s goodness is to tell you, ‘Wait,’” he said. “Cause that’s like one of our young kids asking us for a car, and you 10. I got the means to give you that car, but if I give you that car at 10, you’re going to kill yourself. Now, you come back and ask me for that car at 17, you’re a little bit more mature. You can handle that.”

Later in the clip, the pastor mentioned what change he believes would serve our current generation well.

“And I think this generation would do itself good if we get delivered from being hyper-ambitious and we focus more on the walk with the Lord,” he said. “And we stop seeing all these things as the reward. I remind my churches as often as I can, Christ is the reward.”

Ecclesiastes 3:1 “For everything there is a fixed time, and a time for every business under the sun.”

The God of the impossible did the impossible with King Hezekiah in II Kings 20! King Hezekiah also demonstrated how the God of the impossible wants us to plan.

With all of the turmoil in life, can I really trust God?

Are You Giving God What's His? 🤔

Actress Alexa PenaVega On Her Faith and Navigating Grief and Loss

Actress Alexa PenaVega, in an interview, discussed her faith and navigating grief, pain and loss. Additionally, she talked about motherhood and how that influences and impacts the roles she selects. Watch the clip to hear Alexa’s heartbreaking and inspiring journey as she and her husband have dealt with the painful loss of a child.

Unfortunately, there will be times of great pain and sadness in life. It does not matter how much fame or money one has; those devastating and gut-wrenching circumstances have a way of finding us at one time or another. It’s impossible to go through life without experiencing immense heartache and sorrow.

However, there is still hope even during the heartache, pain and sadness. Jesus Christ offers comfort and healing to those who have been hurt. He also provides rest for those who are weary and tired. He is the calm amid the storm and the peace that surpasses all understanding.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Alexa and her husband, Carlos, experienced a stillbirth. The “Spy Kids” star said it was an unexpected loss because there was a heartbeat two minutes before their daughter was born. It was a devastating and heartbreaking loss. But even during the pain and the hurt, Alexa said there was an unexplainable peace.

“There was a lot of pain, but it was pain with purpose,” she said. “And for people who haven’t had to walk through something heavy like this, it’s, it’s really hard to understand. Like, how can you find joy after that? How can you experience this crazy peace? It was supernatural peace right away. Like, it was painful. Like, we would just, we would cry, and we hurt and we grieved.”

She added that going through that experience caused her to hold and hug her other children a little tighter. Alexa knows precisely where her late daughter is at this very moment.

“But I still feel so connected to Indy,” she said. “I know she’s up in heaven. I know she’s dancing with Jesus and having the best time ever. And you know, while I wish she was here, I always tell people, like, ‘That girl changed the world without even taking a breath.’ And I’m like, ‘That’s powerful.’”

Earlier in the clip, Alexa said that being a mother and a Christian has impacted her project decisions.

“Not that I wouldn’t be this way anyway,” she said. “Ever since I found my faith, just the roles I was taking in general were just, I was just way more aware of the content I was putting out.”

She said she does not want the movies and television shows she appears in to contradict what she is teaching and telling her children. 

Revelation 21:4 “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.”

Life is tough. Can’t change that. But God wants to do life with us. Really?

Students and Teachers Come Together to Give Beloved Janitor Moving Retirement Send-Off

A group of students and teachers came together to give a beloved school janitor a moving retirement send-off. The kind and loving act most certainly caught the retiring janitor off guard. The video shows him becoming emotional at their show of love. Check out the video to watch the sweet, heartwarming moment.

No one wants to work until their dying day. That’s why many people have a lifelong goal of retirement. They plan and save, hoping that one day they will eventually be able to give up their 9-to-5 job and sit back, relax and enjoy their golden years. There are many more important things in life than a weekly or bi-weekly paycheck.

However, as much as people look forward to retirement, leaving their jobs once and for all may not be as easy as they thought. Of course, it’s not the actual work that will be missed; it’s their co-workers. Co-workers and bosses significantly impact jobs and how we perceive those workplaces.

A clip posted on YouTube captures the moment a school janitor retires and leaves his job for the final time. As he does so, the beloved janitor is given the sweetest goodbye you could possibly imagine. Students and teachers line up for what appears to be miles to say goodbye and wish him a happy retirement.

As he walks down the middle of a path, students and teachers line up on the outer edge of the walkway. They applauded the janitor for his more than 30 years of faithful service to the school.

At different points throughout the video, he turns and acknowledges the applause with a wave or smile. 

As the clip mentions, it’s clear that the retiring janitor is attempting to prevent himself from breaking down in tears. Who wouldn’t get emotional at such a lovely display? They showed him how much he meant to them and how much he’ll be missed.

Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, said the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”

Singer Olivia Lane's Powerful Words on Faith and Feeling God’s Presence

Singer-songwriter Olivia Lane shared some powerful words about faith and feeling God’s presence in our lives. Her comments are insightful, uplifting and helpful to anyone and everyone who may be struggling with a similar issue. Watch the video to hear Olivia’s wonderfully insightful thoughts and comments on faith and feeling God’s presence in your life.

Christians want to feel and hear God’s presence. We should all want to know God’s will and purpose for our lives. It should surprise no one when someone seeks out His guidance and direction. In fact, that should be a request we make of Him regularly.

However, it can become frustrating when we feel like we aren’t hearing or feeling His presence or getting His guidance. It can get to the point where it feels like He’s not hearing or possibly even ignoring our requests and prayers. But that’s not the case, and Olivia Lane shared some insightful and powerful reasons why.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Olivia talked to individuals who feel as if they have not been feeling the Lord’s presence or guidance in their lives. She mentioned something she learned “very early in her faith journey that changed everything.” It was something her boyfriend, now her husband, said to her at the time.

She told him that for the longest time, she believed she felt God’s presence. Then, for whatever reason, she felt as if He “left the building.” The response she received is something we can all apply to our lives.

“He turned to me and said, ‘Olivia, faith is not a feeling,’” she recalled. ‘Faith is a choice. Faith is the assurance of things hoped for and the evidence of things unseen, which means we can have confidence in things that are unseen, God, who is unseen.’”

She ends the video by sharing more about faith, trust and hope in God.

“See, feelings are fleeting,” she said. “Faith, in the moments where God is silent, is necessary because He’s growing you. Silence does not mean absence. God is just maturing you.”

Jeremiah 29:13 “And you will be searching for me, and I will be there, when you have gone after me with all your heart.”

Russell Brand Marks 22 Years Sober By Declaring ‘God Is Real’

Russell Brand marked 22 years of sobriety by declaring, “God is Real.” The actor, author and podcast host celebrated more than two decades of sobriety by recognizing God's help getting and staying clean. Check out the video to hear Russell’s powerful and inspiring words about the important milestone in his life and sobriety.

The world is a lost and fallen place filled with hurting and struggling people. As the Bible says, all have sinned and fallen short of God's glory. We’re all sinners who have willingly turned our backs on Him. None of us deserves or will ever deserve the love, forgiveness and mercy that He so freely offers all.

He has the ability and power to forgive and cleanse even the most wretched, lost sinner of them all. He can mend hearts, lives and relationships. He even has the power to break addictions that have consumed and taken control of someone’s life for years.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Russell celebrates being sober for more than 20 years. He mentions that one of the most important things he’s learned in that time has been the importance of his spiritual life.

“What the great gift of recovery is is the ability to know and practice that the spiritual life has to come first, and the most important thing in your life is the way that you serve other people,” he said.

Near the end of the clip, Russell offers those who are struggling and who might be amid an addiction some advice.

“If you’re struggling, there’s a way out of that struggle,” he said. “God is real. And the things in your life that feel like punishments are lessons and opportunities to move closer to God. And the closer to God you get, the more beautiful life can be.”

2 Timothy 1:7 “For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of self-control.”

In God's Word (Isaiah 53)
