Thoughtful Thursday

Psalm 34

34 I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. 2 My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad. 3 O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together. 4 I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.

5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed. 6 This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles. 7 The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. 8 O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.

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.

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 !!
