Motivational Monday

   Friday we spoke about finding your Identity in Christ.  Finding your Identity in Christ is so important.  You must let others know where you stand concerning religion and doctrine.  Stand firm on God's Word and trust Him.  He will make a way for you to conquer your battle of fear and anxiety.  The more people get to know you and how you feel about certain things, the quicker that they can relate to you and your situation.  By doing this, I have learned that you do not have to tell all your business, they will begin to know the basics and not ask as many questions.  Finding your Identity in Christ is important, but finding your own Identity in general is also important.
   Everyone must find their purpose" in life.  I say that so much, but it's true.  Everyone must learn how to spread" their own wings but they also must know how far to spread their wings as well.  It's true that we can do all things through Christ, but sometimes the trouble of it is, is finding what we're good at, finding our niches.  I am trying not to sound too cliché here, but there are certain things a person does better at and that's okay.  We just gotta find that certain thing and as they say,  hoan in on it."  There is nothing in life worse feeling like a tumble weed.  You know those little things that fly around in the dessert, not knowing which way to tumble"  Reminds me of that old song Sons of the Prairie used to sing, " Tumblin' Tumbleweed."
    It's okay to have goals,  make sure you are reaching and accomplishing them before setting new ones.  In life everyone marches to their own beat and no one should have to make excuses for it.  God created us all different for His beauty.  There's a reason that way He made you,  You are beautiful, you are unique, and you are YOU.  Might take you a little longer, to get there, but get there!" Doesn't matter what others say, trust God and if it's His will, He will make  a way for you to accomplish anything.

    The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
Psalm 1:4
             

Prayer-- Lord, please help me to stick to my daily tasks.  It's so easy to let the Devil sway me, but if you keep your arms around me, I know You will give me strength and what it takes to finish each day with a positive outlook and a smile.  In Jesus Name, Amen.

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 !!
