      Motivational Monday


What are things that you do to help meet your weekly goals?  Your daily goals?  Just one goal?  It is so easy for temptation to get in the way and entice us to loose site of our dreams.  Everyone of us has a certain purpose or reason for being on this Earth.  The devil's goal is to lead us into a deep depression and eventually into a deep, dark, hole.  If we notice, God even feeds the little birds.  

For the past couple of weeks, I have had a birds nest in one of my flower pots.  I noticed how they did not do a thing any of the days while living on our front porch.   It amazed me how the momma bird always made sure they had adequate enough food to get them through the time period in which they needed help.  Once the babies realized they could fly,  their mother was no longer needed because they could fend for themselves.  However, she did her job well.  She built a big enough nest for the four eggs that were delivered into the world.  She made sure that they were incubated well enough to hatch and she watched over them until they were ready to defend themselves.

Each living thing has a purpose on this Earth.  I needed a happy thought and God provided it through the family of birds.   Even the youngest little bird had a purpose.  In seeing this picture that God painted, it reminded me that we should always be patient in waiting on God's timing.   The little birds did not care about a thing except eating the little worms, hand delivered by momma, and, of course,  sleeping. Then one day,  they developed enough strength to fly away and take care of themselves.   

We have to always remember that God will be ready and waiting to catch us if we fall.  It is up to us to develop enough strength to fly off and do what God has commanded each of us to do.  It won't always be easy but if we take care and nourish ourselves and our dreams,  God will help us achieve them. Sometimes it is easier said than done, but God has a purpose for our goals, our dreams, and our failures.  Just Remember, He can and will be glorified in everything. Never give up on hope your hopes and dreams.

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...
