comparing apples to oranges....

The devil will try to influence our thoughts in many ways.  There's so many role models or higher up individuals that young girls and women long to follow. Their image is so beautiful and indeed easy to be discouraged by when you let your mind set idle.  It is not healthy for us however, to constantly drool over things that were not to be ours in the first place.
   God knew His plans for us long before we were even born and that makes me feel special.  He knew every step of the way before we even knew the trail existed.  There is something special about knowing God knew what mistakes we would make but yet He chose to let us make them because He knew we were only human.  God takes pride in knowing that His children choose to follow Him in the darkest moments.  It is truly an amazing feeling to be cradled in the arms of an Almighty God, the God who created the Universe.  We can go to Him anytime our hearts desire because He made a way for us long before time even existed.
    The Bible says that God will never put on us anymore than we can handle.  That's paraphrasing but that verse of Scripture is so comforting.  If you remember, even Jesus cross got too heavy at times, but there was a man from the crowd who came to help Him.  Jesus was human as well and knows what pain we go through each and every day.  God designed the Heavenly plan that way for a purpose and that purpose is  YOU!   #beblessed

Terrific Tuesday

2 Peter 1King James Version (KJV) 1 Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; 6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; 7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. 8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall n...

Ten Ways I Stay Motivated

1.  Start the day with prayer or meditation. 2. Brew a good cup of coffee. 3.  Go over my list of goals. 4.  Set new goals ones the old ones are accomplished. 5.  Listen to motivational podcasts or youtube videos. 6.  Read biographies of people who have survived cancer or some amazing trauma.  This helps to remind me that no problem is too big for God. 7.  I try to look in the mirror and say affirmations every morning.  Some of these affirmations are the same ones and some are different.  8. Try to keep a good, constant routine. 9.  Write or draw in my journal. 10.  Reward myself for accomplishments.  After all, you deserve it. Hope you have a wonderful week !!  

Terrific Thursday

Titus 3 (KJV) 3 Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work, 2 To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men. 3 For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. 4 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, 5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Sometimes I wonder if people even read my blog posts. Then other times I think, what does it matter? This is something God wants me to do so it should not matter. We shouldn't strive to please people. My husband and I went out to eat yesterday and I heard the song that goes something like this," I learned my lesson well. You can't please ever...
