Sometimes You Just Need a Cup of Coffee

         Some things in life you just can not change.  There are people that are going to say things about you that are very rude and hurtful. There is nothing that we can do to change those type of people, we just have to sip on a cup of coffee and read our Bible. To me sitting down with a cup of coffee and reading my Bible is the only com fort that my mind can find.  Not to get technical, but the Book of Psalm are some of my favorite poems ever written.
     You may disagree, but Job really knew what it was like to loose everything.  He was alone when he needed his friends the most.  No one was to be found when trouble was involved and all the money was gone.  If we are not on the top of the ladder or have the most cars people tend to look down on us more than someone who has toys to share.
    In my opinion it is sad, when people can not look past a disability for just a minute or two.  God will never put anyone higher than the other.  He sees everyone the same and is no judger of persons.  I have to remind myself of that by reading about Job and how he had to go through depression alone.  All he really wanted was a friend with some soothing words.  It is a shame that we can not trust anyone with our troubles anymore. We must be really careful about who we tell secrets to because not everyone really cares.
     That is a lesson that I have learned so many times in the past. Sometimes it is better to brew a cup of your favorite coffee and read some poetry or a good Inspirational book of your choice.  That is one of the best things that has ever helped me.  I like to read outside with my dog or at the park or put on some pictures of nature as a background to add to the relaxation.
     Again, there is no better way to relax than to read about what God has done for us and reflect on good and uplifting things.  God does not want us to be sad but sometimes we are the only ones who can lift ourselves out of the mud.  God gives us trials once in a while just to see how much we really want to  worship Him, but we must do our part on a daily basis.  So go grab a cup of coffee, a good inspirational book and find yourself living closer to Him everyday. #22q#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...
