Turn to God with Carin

How important is it “To Be Kind”? And yet, how exceedingly difficult it may be as we encounter others who are not kind. 

It’s important to know the Lord’s character is good, kind, and loving. His lovingkindness never fails. So then, to emulate and demonstrate our love to Him would include to deliberately be kind to others. Sometimes that requires forgiveness.

If “Patience is a Virtue,” isn’t it important to have it? 
Looking at it in a practical sense, our patience can enable us to behave wisely when in difficult situations but when reacting without patience, we may bring on lasting regrets.

In this episode we will explore patience as a partner with many virtues and Fruit of the Spirit.  Your feedback is always welcome at https://CarinJayneCasey.com

In today’s episode we explore “Transitions” that we experience. Seasons in our lives continue to change, and with that are choices. 

While change happens daily among us, God’s faithfulness is constant. When we face seasons that are hard, we can focus on the Lord, knowing His plan is ultimately for good. As believers, we can lean on Him to direct our paths and He will equip us and light our path.

 Every person was created for a specific reason. Do you know what “Your Purpose” is? 

Some of us flounder for years, unaware of what our call in life may be. There may be some things you have talent and ability to do, but there is no peace in doing it. Others may have the desire but lack resources. 

What can a person do in their quest to discover their purpose? 
In this episode we find encouragement, with valid examples.

We may have low self-esteem and look at others with envy, or we may look down on others pridefully. Either way, “Comparisons” come from a negative perspective.

 If people look on themselves negatively, they’re not demonstrating gratitude to the Lord and may become people-pleasers. But if people see themselves better than others, they’re prideful and not loving their neighbors. We can overcome comparisons!

In this episode we explore how God demonstrates His power while He brings us through those dark periods of our lives.

Though we’re tempted to see ourselves as alone or forgotten by the Lord, His power may be most obvious when we lean on Him for strength, rescue, and deliverance.

In some instances, or with certain emotions or addictions, a person may feel helpless that they have “No Self Control.” But we can overcome!

Do we have excuses for our actions, attitudes, or behaviors? Each person has free will, and in that they may make right choices or terrible mistakes. 

For every believer, follower of Jesus is given the fruit of the Spirit which is filled with love and held together with self control. But if that self-control is not used, stretched, or maintained, it may remain weak for when a challenge comes along.

When we are asking a big favor of someone, we may say, “If you do this for me, I’ll be Eternally Grateful.” But that promise is an exaggeration, isn’t it? What can a person do to cause thankfulness forever? 

 We can be grateful to the Lord for various rescues and healings, but the ultimate gratitude is in salvation through Christ because that relationship is for eternity.

Have you ever felt you were under someone’s thumb, in their control? “Oppression” is meant to bring you down, but there is help available. 

 Casey shares about a period of oppression in her life and how the Lord brought her through it as she reads a portion of her personal reflections in her nonfiction, 
A New Song Rises Up!

Always, she shares to bring encouragement to others and to shout out how awesome the Lord is.

We’ve each experienced watching the attitude of self-righteousness in ourselves or others. But what truly can make anyone “Righteous”?

Within the pages of the Word of God, we find that righteousness belongs to the Lord. We can receive this gift of righteousness through Jesus Christ when we believe. We have free will to choose Him today, next week, next year – but do we know what the future holds? 

We also touch on the breastplate of righteousness as part of the full armor of God and find reference materials for further study.

Have you been struggling with hurt, bitterness, and thoughts of revenge because someone has offended you? Do you rehearse in your mind the attacks of toxic people? “Forgiveness” is good for your soul. 

 We can enjoy peace when we give God our troubles, walk away from the strife, and forgive. It is each person’s choice, whether to be stuck in the past of poisonous memories or to find victory and blessings as we forgive and let it go.

We often hear the phrase, “Come to Jesus” in reference to a moment of facing the truth about something. But it’s an invitation!

 Scriptures tell us about Jesus, the Son of God, who suffered and died on the cross to pay for our sins. And He arose! He ascended to Heaven. The Lord stands at the door of each heart, knocking. It is our decision whether to welcome Him in. 

 What does it take to come to Jesus? Repent. Believe. Accept Him as Lord and Savior. And be heaven-bound!

Do you know someone who needs “Anger Management”? 
Are they quick to anger, spewing out ugly words, or acting out? 
Does that describe you sometimes? 

Are there any valid excuses for our reactions and behaviors toward others? 
It all boils down to choices we make. Where does our help come from? 
With the Lord’s help, we can be slow to anger. Casey shares scriptural support and a brief testimony.

We can strive to be the best person, but no matter how good one may be, it is out of grasp because no one is perfect. But God wants us all to be with Him in heaven, so He provides “Grace through Faith.” 

 How is God’s grace provided? He sacrificed His only Son, Jesus Christ to suffer and die on the cross, to pay for our sins. And Jesus arose! He is now in Heaven. We are provided the way to join Him. 

 What is required to become a believer? Repent. Believe. Accept Jesus as Lord and Savior. And be heaven-bound!

So much of our lives involve facing an unknown future. “Are you Afraid?”

When fear comes knocking at our door, we can allow ourselves to be overwhelmed, or we can decide to focus on the Lord. We can find strength in Him as we stir up our faith. 

 This episode brings encouragement with ways we can rally our faith during dark and scary times that invite us to be afraid. For instance, we can remember past times we were rescued by the Lord.
