Happy New Year!
Here is a listing of 2012 quotes that I took down in the notepad of my Iphone throughout the year. I do not have as many as last year because this year I began journaling a lot more and spending time with God.
I wish each of you that may read this, a blessed New Year!

“So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.

No, a true Jew is one whose heart is right with God. And true circumcision is not merely obeying the letter of the law; rather, it is a change of heart produced by God’s Spirit. And a person with a changed heart seeks praise from God, not from people. (Romans 2:29 NLT)

When the Queen is ready the king will appear
Matthew 4:1-11Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted there by the devil. For forty days and forty nights he fasted and became very hungry.
During that time the devil came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become loaves of bread.”
But Jesus told him, “No! The Scriptures say,
‘People do not live by bread alone,
but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’” Then the devil took him to the holy city, Jerusalem, to the highest point of the Temple, and said, “If you are the Son of God, jump off! For the Scriptures say,
‘He will order his angels to protect you.
And they will hold you up with their hands
so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.’” Jesus responded, “The Scriptures also say, ‘You must not test the LORD your God.’”
Next the devil took him to the peak of a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. “I will give it all to you,” he said, “if you will kneel down and worship me.”
“Get out of here, Satan,” Jesus told him. “For the Scriptures say,
‘You must worship the LORD your God
and serve only him.’” Then the devil went away, and angels came and took care of Jesus. (Matthew 4:1-11 NLT)
If he doesn't take it away he gives u the grace to deal with it!
When u talk to other people about ur problems instead of God it causes u to have ungodly wisdom poured into you. So b/c what they are telling u may not b of God and what His desires are it can cause the problem most times to elevate instead of defusing it. When problems, hurt or disappointments come get on your face before God. Let Him speak to you through the Holy Spirit and give u peace. Then Stand on His promises and rest peace knowing that Godly wisdom will be brought to my life. Thank God I do not have to worry because God is taking care of all of my wants and needs! Everything is working out How he planned it. ME
Don't get made when God answers my prayers and it's not everything I envisioned. I need to B content with what he has blessed me with and anything lacking is for my good. What use to be or what I imagined may not b what God wants right now. Learn to accept that and praise Him for the good He is working out on my behalf. ME
So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you have to endure many trials for a little while. (1 Peter 1:6 NLT)
He never sinned,
nor ever deceived anyone. He did not retaliate when he was insulted,
nor threaten revenge when he suffered.
He left his case in the hands of God,
who always judges fairly. He personally carried our sins
in his body on the cross
so that we can be dead to sin
and live for what is right.
By his wounds
you are healed. Once you were like sheep
who wandered away.
But now you have turned to your Shepherd,
the Guardian of your souls. (1 Peter 2:22-25 NLT)
Be constantly renewed in the spirit of your mind(having fresh mental and spiritual attitude) Ephesians 4:23 AMP
You will be accepted if you do what is right. But if you refuse to do what is right, then watch out! Sin is crouching at the door, eager to control you. But you must subdue it and be its master.” (Genesis 4:7 NLT)
Make the best decisions you can and trust God with the results
