Fantastic Friday

Then the word of the Lord came unto me saying,

Before I formed thee in the womb, I knew thee and before thou camest out of the womb, I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.

Then said I, ah, Lord God !  I can not speak for I am a child.

But the Lord said, say not, I am a child for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee and whatsoever I command thee, that shall thou speak.

Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, said the Lord.

Then the Lord put forth His hand, and touched my mouth.  And the Lord said unto me, Behold, I have put words in thy mouth.    Jeremiah 1:4-9
    This Scripture is so comforting.  It reminds me that God knew me before I was formed.  He knew the plan He had for me.  I know I may not be able to accomplish much on my own, but I know I can do anything with His help and guiding hand.  God knew that we all would have our struggles but He also knew that one day that there would be rest.

Fantastic Friday

“To make this as simple as possible, let me say it this way: justification is all about Jesus. Jesus’ work, not our works, saves us. Jesus’ life, not our own life, is our hope. Jesus’ death, not our religious works, is our payment. Jesus alone forgives sin. So, we’re to repent of our sin to Jesus. Jesus alone gives righteousness. So we trust in Jesus for our justification. Our justification is not accomplished in any part by our own work, morality, or religious devotion. Justification is accomplished by Jesus plus nothing, and Jesus plus anything ruins everything.”   Mark Driscoll “Sometimes we’re so focused on our desired blessings that we fail to stop and thank God by remembering the blessings we already have in Christ .” Mark Driscoll    Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. 1 John 3:1 Prayer-- Lord, help me realize that the World d...

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 !!
