Savor the Moment by Maria Guzman

Hello Brave Hearted Steppers, 

I hope you took advantage of the 21 days of Savor The Moment Series Life Applications! I know I did! In addition to the Life Applications, this month's theme is Savor the Moment: Practicing Gratitude in our Brave Hearted Journeys. So that is what I am going to share with you today.

In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it is very easy to overlook the beauty of the present moment. We often find ourselves getting caught up in the whirlwind of responsibilities, goals, future plans, etc.  However, taking a step back to Savor the Moment and Practice Gratitude daily can transform our Brave Hearted journeys into more fulfilling and joyful experiences. 

Embrace the Present Moment
The Bible verse Psalm 118:24, it says "This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it." Every day is a gift, a unique opportunity to experience life in all its fullness. When we focus on embracing the present moment, we open our hearts to the blessings that surround us.

Gratitude is a Powerful Tool
Practicing gratitude daily transforms our perspective, allowing us to see the abundance in our lives rather than the lack. As 1 Thessalonians 5:18 reminds us, "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." Gratitude is a powerful tool that can change our outlook on life. It shifts our focus from what we don't have to what we do, filling our hearts with contentment and peace.

Finding Strength in Our Faith
Our Brave Hearted journeys are often marked by challenges and trials. Yet, it is in these moments of difficulty that we can find strength in our faith. The Bible says, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13. This verse reminds us that we are not alone in our struggles. When we lean on our faith and practice gratitude daily, we grow in our resilience which helps us to persevere through tough times.

Navigating our Brave Hearted journeys through Gratitude
As we navigate our Brave Hearted journeys, let us always remember to Savor the Moment and Practice Gratitude daily. In doing so, we align our hearts with the wisdom from the Word of God and embrace the fullness of life that God has intended for us. Colossians 3:15 says, "And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful."

In the end, a grateful heart is a joyful heart, and joy is the ultimate treasure in our Brave Hearted journeys. May we all find moments to pause, appreciate, and give thanks for the blessings in our lives, both big and small. By doing so, we transform our everyday experiences into a profound and meaningful journey of faith and gratitude.

Many Blessings,
Maria Guzman
Founder of Brave Hearted Ministry

Thrive as a Brave Hearted Stepper by Lourdes Hernandez

  Last year the founder of Brave Hearted Ministries had asked me to write a blog about “Thriving as a Brave Hearted Stepper”. Can I just let you all know, what a tasking topic that was for me. As a matter of fact, the topic became the reoccurring question in my mind and in my heart. It caused me to ask myself the question constantly and consistently, are you thriving or are you just surviving? Is this something that is making you thrive or is it really draining you? You see, the first thing that I wanted to make sure to address was the fact that thriving isn’t an emotion. We think about thriving, sometimes, or maybe it’s just me, as a season of the best feelings and the best look, because thriving means to grow and blossom. Usually, those things happen in our spring seasons, and we encase the action of thriving to just those types of moments or experiences. But, let me venture down a different path and tell you that thriving is something that should happen in your life as you conti...
