As Pretty Girls, we all have ideal expectations of what we want out of life. We know what cars we would look good driving and we know what our perfect career choice would be. Some of us can imagine living in the perfect home filled with the perfect family, and others of us can imagine traveling the world and never looking back. Even though we have really big imaginations, and even bigger dreams, the good news is that God has something even bigger and better in store for us (Ephesians 3:20). When we live our lives for God, doing what He wants us to do, we are in His will. God's plans for lives are so unique and amazing that He can only show us what He has for us in pieces at a time. Our job is to trust God, and have faith and wait for all of the good things that God as in store for us (Romans 8:28). He knows the plans that He has for our life, and He only wants what is best for us (Jeremiah 29:11). We are His children, and He loves us. When we commit our ways to the Lord, and get excited about the things of God, God will bless us with the desires of our hearts as long as we are in His will (Psalm 37:4). God is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords and He is able to move mountains and stop time. God is a God of miracles and whatever He wants to do, He will do. This is the God that we serve. No task is too small, and no job is too hard. God has amazing plans for your life; He is just waiting on you to serve Him so that He can bless you. Do not put limits on God. Expect big things and have faith that God will do what you ask of Him.

No Limits

Don't Quit
Sometimes it can take a lot of hard work and patience to live a life dedicated to God. There are times when we can get discouraged when we pray but don't see immediate results. There are many reasons why we pray and don't see anything happening right away. Maybe what we asked God for isn't in His will for us (1 John 5:14). Maybe God has something much better in store for us than what we are asking Him for. Maybe God wants to teach us a lesson. Only God knows the plans He has for our life, and only He knows how things will turn out. God knows what is best and it is our job to trust Him. Do not be discouraged if God doesn't respond to a prayer right away; He hasn't forgotten about you and He will never stop listening to you. In fact, God hears our every prayer, and He listens out for those who are faithful to Him (1 Peter 3:12). Galatians 6:9 says, "And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not." In the end, our reward will come from God. Don't stop doing the right thing! The Lord sees you while you are working hard to help others. God knows when you pray on behalf of someone else. God lets us know that we will receive our reward from Him as long as we do not give up. The key to receiving our rightful reward is patience and obedience; patience to hold on and wait on God, and obedience to His word to do the right thing no matter what is going on around us. Continue to press on to do the right thing even if no one sees you, because it is pleasing in God's sight (1 John 3:22).
