You are not in darkness, so that that day should overtake you as it would thieves.—1 Thess. 5:4.

Earthshaking events will soon occur. The fulfillment of Bible prophecies confirms this fact, so we need to keep on the watch. What will help us to do that? The apostle Paul urges us to “keep our eyes . . . on the things unseen.” Yes, we need to bear in mind our reward of everlasting life, be it in heaven or on earth. As the context shows, Paul wrote these words to encourage fellow believers to focus on the happy outcome of their faithful course. Doing so would also help them to cope with trials and persecution. (2 Cor. 4:8, 9, 16-18; 5:7) Paul’s admonition contains an important principle: To keep our hope firm, we must look beyond the things that are immediately before us. We need to focus on significant events that are as yet unseen.—Heb. 11:1; 12:1, 2

Day 3: WRITE A LOVE LETTER TO MY FUTURE SELF from 31 days to Reset Your Life Challenge by Rosetta Thurman

Dear Rita:

Congratulations on all the progress you've made so far!  Now you have even more to be grateful for in each area of your life including:

Lifestyle:  I love the life you are building for yourself and with great anticipation I believe the days ahead look even brighter than they did prior to you making your mind up to live your life on your own terms.

Work:  I love how you are finally earning a living doing things you enjoy doing and I think it is especially clever how you found a way to earn a living doing it.


Finances:  I love how you have become more responsible with your finances.  No longer spending frivolously, saving consistently and paying your bills on time.  Your credit score is getting better, that's wonderful I can see where your discipline is paying off.


Health:  I love that you are finally under 200 pounds and back on track eating healthy and exercising regularly.


Family:  I love how you and Mr. Mack are now communicating more effectively, are more intimate with each other, spending quality time together, praying and worshiping together and totally supportive of each others dreams and desires.


Relationships:  I love that you are identifying those who are healthy to be around and isolating or minimizing your association with those who are less healthy for you to be around.  I know it is hard at times because some of those you are distancing yourself from are family and friends.  However, I want to encourage you to  stand by your decision to live your life in accordance with Jehovah's will.  Remember, seek his kingdom first and all other things will be added unto you.


I am so proud of how far you've come in 30 days.  You have made some great strides.  Remember don't forget to pray regularly, study God's word regularly and know that I believe in you and I love you.

Love your girl Rita
