The world around is a challenging experience that we’re gifted to have by the grace of God. Both trials and tribulations are what molds and form us into the unique individuals we are meant to become, without it we won’t learn of our special abilities and talents. Ever thought about how much the world’s negativity can affect your well-being and health as a whole? It’s not a good look to go through life with misdirection because you’ll fall so far off the intended path that was destined for you. You live and you learn, but one of the greatest parts is the ability to know where you’ve done wrong and work towards improving yourself for the better. Encouragement these days are difficult to come by, so we tend to rely on a stranger’s word of kindness to get us through the days. No one is safe from having a moment of let downs or low points and it is most important of your attitude for an outcome to be brighter. Whatever we go through, whether family or friends aren’t doing right by you, know that the best words to curve sadness are from the Bible. Do you read it every day or only reach for it when you’re going through troubled times?
In Enter His Courts, author Christina Corbitt shares verses along with a short scenario story that encapsulates her interpretation of the verse for better understanding. We as human beings have a better grasp of things when they are easily relatable to us. Think of daily devotionals, waking up and reading a bite-sized text each day that expresses nothing but positivity will have a major influence on your overall day. Life can be greater for us if we all take a moment to listen to what God is trying to say to us. His words are a gift to us so that we may remain connected to our creator. The proper guidance we receive by reading the Bible is what will aid us as we carry on this journey of life, after all, we must use the gift of living wisely. Building our relationship with Him is most important, just like maintaining the relationships we create with each other. Positivity and love conquer all that we face in any given day and this book helps to remind us of that. We as humans must understand that we must do better for ourselves so that we’ll have a place in heaven when it’s time for us to return home to God.
I honestly hoped that I had the opportunity of reading this as each day passes based on its intended use, but I embraced every scenario as lessons learned. Of course, I might not find every situation described within this book to be relatable to me and I was still able to take away some things from it. I learned that we are special from our imperfections and negatives can be forgiven and forgotten if we truly listen to God as our teacher and guide. Through reading this book I comprehend that we shouldn’t view our lives as anything more than borrowed time to encourage ourselves to be in God’s image. Author Christina Corbitt made sure to explain just how awesome God is through the good actions of others. I know that we are special individuals to share the love God has for us with the rest of the world and by reading these encouraging words, it will spark an interest to continue aiming for positivity in your life. I truly enjoyed reading the words of both God and being witness to all the wonders and lessons learned by the characters in this book. I highly recommend everyone to read this book each day for a bit of inspiration to carry you through the day, this would definitely be something you need as a constant reminder.
