Kind message for the day

I have really realized that some things in life that I want take time for them to come to pass but when they do it's totally worth the wait. I am reminding my self not to be anxious and to be patient because God's got big blessings in store for all of us. It isn't easy to be patient but God already knows our hearts desires  He's just waiting for the right time to bring them to pass. The blessings in my life are not there by  anything I have deserved or done to earn them, they are truly blessings from God and His way of showing me that He loves me and all of us so much!!

My message for the day
I am trying to learn to stay in the moment and not get to head of myself because sometimes when I focus on the past and worry about the future I miss out on the present moment. I don't want to ever look back and think I didn't take the time to enjoy each moment in my life because in the simple moments in life is where the real peace, joy beauty lies.
