Fantastic Friday

  I have always studied people's attitude and how they adapted to life.  As I get older, I also notice how easy it is for some people to feed off others emotions.  There is absolutely nothing wrong with being empathic.  We need more Christians to be loving.  However, Setting Up Walls and setting up boundaries are two different things.
     As Christians,  " Christ Followers,"  or people in general....we need to learn what is toxic to us.  We need to learn how to be loving without actually becoming like that person.  Does that make sense?  We need to learn how to control our emotions.  We need to Identify our own emotions before we can help someone else.  If we end up in the same emotional downslide that the other person is, we are not going to be very much help.
     It is so very easy to play off other people's emotions.  I catch myself doing it.  After I realize it though,  I group everything back to home base.  People actually watch us so we need to be careful how we treat each other.  We need to be careful how we treat God's church, last but not least, we need to be careful how we treat ourselves.


       A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.
                                                                 Proverbs 15: 13

 Prayer--  Lord, help me to control my emotions.  Help me to treat others the way You would have me treat them.  Help me to shine my light as far as It can go.  In Jesus Name, Amen

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...
