Fantastic Friday

               Finding your Identity in Christ is a more difficult task than one might think it is. Well,  I won't speak in general, I'll be a little more specific. There are typically two types of people in the world, those who have high self-esteem and those who have very low self-esteem.

            Some people are a mix, they do not know exactly which personality or characteristic to have on a regular basis. Have you ever seen a chameleon?  You know those little creatures that change colors according to their surrounding?
           
          These people, to a certain extent, annoy me, constantly changing to adapt to their situations.  You never know exactly what to say to them, or how to react to their responses.  That's just me though,  I love everyone.  It's just I think you should learn how to Identify yourself earlier on in life.

          Let people know where you stand and not afraid to shine your light. You never know who is watching.  Everyone is not going to have the same ideas and not everyone is going to like you.  It's just the way it is.  In saying this,  be yourself, be unique.  Don't let a disability keep you from reaching your goals.


      Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away;
                             behold, all things have become new. 2 Corinthians 5:17

Food For Thought

A journaling topic that Kim Erickson suggests is as following, " Write some things that happened this week that got in the way of your having a joyful day."   Well,  honestly, I could sit down forever and talk about this topic.  It's these kind of affirmations that have really gotten me through the day.  I wish I had known about them when I was younger.  Middle School and High school might have been a little easier.  However, I never really had any bullies attack me then.  At that time, the only real bully was my inner-self.  I stayed positive and always tried to keep my mind on God and things that do not concern this world.  Happy places, quiet places, and dreaming about far off worlds usually kept my mind busy.   That is how it is today as well, but sometimes, having a reminder every now and then doesn't hurt.   Not everyone is going to be your friend, and not every one is going to send positive vibes.  Sometimes you have to do it yourself, you have to wake up thi

for Thursday

s   I have been reviewing products for a while now.  I usually try to pick items that I actually want to use on a day to day basis.  Excitingly, this is one of the recent items I earned in exchange for an honest", unbiased", opinion.  My opinion is that it is "awesome!"     I will use this bag every time I go to the gym to workout.  Of course, my definition of "working out," is not the same as everyone else's definition yet, but I am stepping  higher each time.  Having fancy gym attire is not required, but definitely very, very helpful.    I am sure that people will eventually get tired of hearing about this bag, I am proud to own it.  I would have paid the full amount for this bag.  It has many, many pockets and a place for your water bottle as well.  It not only can be used as a gym bag, but as a travel bag also.  I love the length of the shoulder strap.  The best part about the shoulder strap is the padding they added for extra support.    Thi

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 !!
