We are called to be a reflection of Christ but oftentimes other things in our lives are being reflected. “As water reflects the face, so one’s life reflects the heart.” (Proverbs 27:19) We should no longer be okay with allowing our circumstances and people to define us or blame them for our struggle. I encourage you to look inside your own heart and see what role you have been playing in your life.

Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” John 14:27 (NIV)Download my FREE ebook "30 Days of Prayer: Bye, Bye, Anxiety" at www.imalexaloryn.comFollow me on IG/TikTok/Facebook: @imalexaloryn2021-12-0123 minHeart of a SeekerSeek PeaceAs I was reflecting earlier this week the following thought came to mind "don't allow idols to rob your peace."

"If you were in jail how would you bail your fellow cellmate out?" If you are still in captivity and incarcerated to your old habits and ways of thinking how could you ever bring hope to someone else going through the same thing?” The Lord wants to restore us and release us from darkness so we can help others who are still prisoners.Download ...2021-09-0823 minHeart of a SeekerTested FaithWhat do we do when we feel our faith is being tested?
