“At the end of that time, I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven, and my sanity was restored. Then I praised the Most High; I honored and glorified him who lives forever… At the same time that my sanity was restored, my honor and splendor were returned to me for the glory of my kingdom. My advisers and nobles sought me out, and I was restored to my throne and became even greater than before” (Daniel 4:34a-36 NIV)

 

Example ~ “Jesus said to them, ‘My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work’” (John 4:34).

 

“Let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the Cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God” (Hebrews 12:1b-2).

 

Quotes ~ “David never really knew Goliath’s strength. He was too focused on God’s.”

 

Stop focusing on how stressed you are and remember who blessed you are.”
