Motivational Monday

   In my book, there is nothing worse than having someone tell you you can't sing well enough, or you can't play piano well enough to be on our team....  What does God say about that though?  He says to study and shew thyself worthy." Right?  He says make a Joyful" noise.  I am so thankful that it does not say, "perfect noise." 

   There are some people though, that think they are crème de' la crème....the cream of the crop.  My mission is to break that cycle of thinking within the Christian body anyways.  It seems like church people can be the worst to criticize each others talents.  I have never been able to understand that.  Don't get me wrong, I love going to church and being with my Christian family, otherwise I would not blog about it. 

   I am thankful that He gave me a chance and has mercy, that's who I sing and play for.. to praise God.  I try to just close my eyes and pretend no one else is there.  It shouldn't be an American Idol contest when you are performing for God.  I have said that many times.  The Scripture that I would like to point out today Psalm 98, where is says,


" Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth; make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise."

Especially when we come together in worship, let's remember to try to be more mindful of each other as we praise God.

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...

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...
