I lost my wedding ring a few weeks ago and couldn't figure out where I misplaced it. I had visited four different shops and parking lots and I was in and out of the house – and I had no idea where it could have slipped off! Usually, when I lose things, I PRAY! So, I prayed (like a mad woman)! “Lord, please let it fall from heaven!” 

5 hours later, I thought to myself, “Let me check the dustbin.” And there, of all places, I found my ring! It didn’t fall from Heaven, but it might just as well have! Praise God! He is so good!

I had an incredibly tough decision to make regarding the course of my life and I desperately needed an answer. I said, “Lord, I need a sign.”
Then one of my students showed me her project, on which she had written a scripture: Matthew 6:33. Holy Spirit challenged me by asking if my decision was based on seeking His Kingdom, or on fear and discontentment.
God used her to give guidance about the crucial decision I had to make soon. I immediately felt peace in the decision and knew it was God’s confirmation.
I hope this encourages you to run to God FIRST and to trust His peace, even when it doesn’t make sense.
Also, allow the Holy Spirit to use any scenario to comfort and guide you!
But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all these things shall be added to you.” – Matthew 6:33

Last week Monday, a friend and I prayed and blessed one another, specifically with regards to our leadership role as it can get hard being a leader. During that day, I started feeling inadequate and stressed again about my leadership role. I then felt Holy Spirit prompting me to check my dayword. It was, "Strive to N.A.P." I got excited for a moment because the Holy Spirit was giving me permission to take a nap! I kept praying about it though, because I felt there was a deeper aspect Holy Spirit wanted to reveal to me. While praying throughout the day Holy Spirit revealed that N.A.P is an acronym for "Never Achieve Perfection." My mind was blown away! Just that morning, we spoke about how we are not perfect in leading people! I realized that God does not want us to ever achieve perfection, so that we remain dependent on Him, not doing things in our own power or strength. Once you have achieved perfection, you do not need God anymore, but if you strive to never be perfect, you strive to always be dependent on Him!
I am encouraged for whenever I feel inadequate!
Now I can remind myself, "Take a N.A.P." so that I will remain dependent on God!
