Do you truly believe that your best days are now?
Sadly, no…
God bless us
I don't think so...period!😪😪😪
Honestly, no I do not. Almost every aspect of my life is a struggle. I can see the blessings but it doesn’t take away the struggle. If today is the best then I’m not sure it’s all worth it.
Yes I Think Life Church *4 I Say That I Thank Our Great Almighty God 4 Everyday & Every Moment He Has Given Me* 4 This Is The Day That The LORD Has Made 4 We Must Be Glad & Rejoice In Them Written In Psalm 118:24* & God Bless Yu Life Church So Very Much.🙏🙏
To the one who is reading this comment, this prayer is for you. I pray that God will wipe away every tear and pain that you are going through right now. That he will comfort you and your moments of loneliness and sorrow. The bible said “Come unto me all who are weary and are heavy burdened. I will give you rest”. Praying for you all. In Jesus Name. Amen
Help me!😴😴💝💝
I receive that in the name of Jesus.
Amen 🙏
Thank you and the same for you 💞💞
Amen!!
Don't miss the life you have now,persuing the life you want later.... that's powerful

So happy for you!! Praise God
This whole series is pretty amazing! As a working wife and mom, it's hard to "stay present" but this reminded me what's really important! Such a great message!
Hi how are you doing

I'm here... struggling to recover from years of trauma. You have been better than any counselor I've seen. God truly is using you don't stop! Thank you
I am from INDIA. Thank you for the beautiful message PASTOR CRAIG. I am really blessed . It is very true " The only way we can be present in the moment by SURRENDING the past you can't change and TRUSTING god with a future you can't control.
♥️
What a beautiful recap! You put it very well. I haven’t listened to this sermon yet. I thought I’d see what people said in the comments. Odd, I’ve just spent the past hour surrendering things of my past to the Lord, and thanking Him anyway that I’ve gone through them. And, here I read your comment. Very nice. I desire to come closer to the Lord and His love, and now I read your comment. I think not a coincidence? Thank you! 🤗. God bless you.
I gave all my past to God.Two unbelievable marriages that took up too many wasted years of my life! I've lived for God since I was a child. Made bad choices with the two men I'd married. A total of 48 years of unhappiness!
Here watching from Denham Springs, Louisiana!!! Jesus Christ is King!!!!!!!❤❤❤
Great to know. Welcome
Help me be fully engaged in the moment in Jesus mighty name Amen
Amen!

Thank you for this message!
Hello Kate
That's right, JESUS STOPPED for a man that NO ONE ELSE had time for.....just like the same type of person that most people, even "Christians" walk right past or scoff at. I put "Christians" in quotes bc unfortunately many just go to Church once or twice a week & think they're doing something but yet the rest of the time they're hateful & judgemental to others. We don't GO to Church, WE ARE THE CHURCH. We are to strive be like Christ. None of us will be anywhere near perfect but we sure are supposed to ATLEAST TRY! I'll continue to help those that people ignore, scoff at & walk past...not for me but for GOD...for when they tell me "thank you", I tell them "thank GOD bc HE is the one who has brought you in my path for me to help you". God places people in our path for a REASON.
🙌🏼🙏🏽
Am here!

Amen! 🙏🏻
I love His grace. I'm so thankful that I am listening and reading His word. I know, and now have confirmation that God had his little things that He does to keep me on track. I can't quit smiling and feeling butterflies in my stomach. I love God and everything about Him. He keeps pulling me in and I love Him more and more each day. God is love. My Dad always says that. God bless my family and God bless us all. ❤
The best days are always now in Jesus's name, Amen
Yes, Amen! Praise our Awesome Savior!
Thanks, Megan, for sharing!

I’m here, praying this blesses me to wake up out of depression and anxiety. It gets in the way of parenting and living life out loud. I so desperately want to walk out my full existence as it pertains to Gods plan for my life❤
Father, please be at work in the life of @menamccravy9897. Surround them with support and ease the depression and anxiety they've been feeling. Allow them to step into a new season of life, so they can be fully present as a parent and follow the calling You've given them. In Jesus' name, amen.

I agree. Help me be fully engaged in the moment. Yes Lord
Help me be fully present in the moment always Lord 🙏🏾
I lost my job a few weeks ago. I failed to realize that I had a good thing going. I knew my heart and my mind were not in the right place. At that time, I didn't know what I had until I lost it. Lately, I've realized I need to be in the moment and I need to appreciate everything that I have, because it can all be taken away in a flash. Pray for me for my next job and to continue to work on appreciating everything I have in my life.
Dear Heavenly Father, we lift up to you, @greatness3554; Father God, help us to make wise choices in our lives. Help us live with our eyes focused on you and eternity. Help us to be wise and discerning, so we are not caught unaware… help us to drown out the loudness of the world…the loudness of physical and emotional pain when it threatens to overwhelm us…the loudness of the enemy who taunts our minds with doubts and barrages us with what seems like an unrelenting stream of seemingly insurmountable trials and heartaches….help us Lord to hone in on your voice…may we be so sensitive to it that we can hear it like an animal that hears what humans can’t hear. Father, we need your guidance in our lives…we need your direction…we need you to be the rock we cling to in this ever-changing world. Help us not to get caught up in all that is wrong with the world…we lift up the needs we see, but let us focus on you alone and not be consumed by worry, sadness and uncertainty.
Go before us this day, Lord. Protect our loved ones and meet their needs. Help us to stand fast against spiritual attacks and to remember we are not alone in anything we face and we can do all things through Christ. We love you Lord and we thank you in advance for meeting each need, spoken and unspoken. In the name of Jesus we ask these things, Amen.

I’m healed watching this I’m not wasting my life
Thank you, Lord, for your grace and mercy.🙏
I want to give over my grief of the loss of my father and how I'm 'supposed' to grieve according to the world. I ask for God's guidance in moving on, and a calm in my spirit that I did enough in the relationship with what I knew and had in that time.
I would like to give my life and my future and follow your guidance in what's next God.
I give my life to you God, I reset
with you now god😊
Hello Zarica,
We are happy that you joined us today. I read your message and it pulled on my heart strings. Losing someone close to you is very hard. Looking back on our relationship with that person can be crippling. It is important that we remember that God knows our heart. It seems to me, that you are saying that you did the best with what you had at that time, this speaks volumes that you DID do your best. The world can be intrusive, but what really matters is only what God thinks. You have your own path with God, please don't let others distract you from that.
Moving forward it is wonderful that you are giving your life and future to God for guidance. This is what we do. We pray and know that God hears your prayers. I would like to pray for you.
Dear God,
I come before you for your daughter Zarica. Lord, Zarica has lost her father and would like your guidance on moving on. Please heal Zarica's heart. Guide her on the path of righteousness. Open the flood gates of wisdom and understanding. Keep all evil from her, especially people who are judgmental and have controlling spirits. Allow Zarica to feel the freedom of giving her life to you. Cover her in your righteousness. I ask this in the Name of Your Son- Jesus Christ -Amen.
Be Well Zarica and Strong in the Lord, for he loves you.
❤️Lisa

Lord, I lift up Catrina Tiger. You know her and see what she is going through. God, I ask that you would be with her. Cover her in your grace and love. I pray that you would give Catrina strength and courage. Lord, let those around her speak truth and light into her life. Continue to be with Catrina during this time. In Jesus' name, amen.
Help me to trust God with a future I cannot control, and to wipe away a past I cannot change. I believe Christ can and has forgiven me.
Please pray for my 3 boys, youngest one, is Zack & his wife Maddison and their pregnancy. Also my middle son Dean is. Marine and on his second deployment currently on a ship right now.
Lastly for my oldest son Chris & his wife Maddy.
Thank you prayer team & Life Church.
Dear God, we pray for David. We pray for an increase in faith and trust and we choose to believe you God. We surrender our worries and fears about the future, and we know our future is good and your plans are way better than ours. There is no reason to worry because you are already there on the other side. We pray for forgiveness and for us to move on and let go our past, but may we bring the lessons we need to bring. We pray that we no longer dwell on the past but look forward to the new thing that you are doing. We pray for his 3 boys for safety and for a relationship in their family that brings them all closer to you Jesus. We pray for a healthy and safe pregnancy for Maddison and Zack. We pray for Dean to be safe and joyful and for you to always be with Him and guide him Jesus as he travels on ship, and may he honor you in his work and trust you. We pray for Chris and Maddy and may they grow a relationship, a family that seeks and honors God. Thank you for this beautiful family God. Please bless and provide for them and keep them safe and loving. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
