Motivational Monday

Since we have been talking about Finding your Identity in Christ, I think of emotions as well and how being satisfied with your lot in life helps you achieve goals. How one feels greatly depends on their surroundings. It really does! This morning I woke up with the word aroma on my mind.  It reminded me how different smells make you feel.  Some smells make you happy, some smells make you sad, some smells make even flat out make you angry.  That's one reason my Keurig is sitting beside my writing chair. The coffee smells help me wake up because it gives me something to look forward to every morning.  If I put the littler box beside my writing chair, it probably wouldn't motivate me very well.  That's the way it is with our Heavenly Father.  Finding our Identity in Christ, will help us determine how to serve God better.  God really doesn't need us because He is the Almighty God, but when we accomplish our goals and give him honor it's like a sweet savor in his nostrils.  I don't want to be a broken record, but God delights in His children and wants us to have things.  He wants us to be happy so let's be a sweet smelling savor for Him and help bring others into the Kingdom as part of our goals and accomplishments.  #happyMonday#beblessed


Prayer-- Lord help me be a sweet savor in your nostrils.  Help me find my own Identity so I can help add to Your Kingdom cause even the smallest one is great in Your eyes.
                 For to God we are the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved
                                   and among those who are perishing. 2 Corinthians 2:15

Review Time!

I love getting products like these in exchange for an honest review!!! I just got a new iphone6s and these cords work perfectly.  As you see, I received three lightning cables in the mail to charge my iPhone 6s. I am going to leave one in my car and one near my wall charger. I am going to give the other cable to my mom as she has an iPhone 6 Plus.  These cables are great and worth the money because there are not just one but three cords included in the package. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00U0Q0IP6

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.

Eclesiastes 7: 13-16 Hope you have had a Wonderful Thanksgiving!! 13 Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he hath made crooked? 14 In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider: God also hath set the one over against the other, to the end that man should find nothing after him. 15 All things have I seen in the days of my vanity: there is a just man that perisheth in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man that prolongeth his life in his wickedness. 16 Be not righteous over much; neither make thyself over wise: why shouldest thou destroy thyself ? There is alot of wisdom in this particular passage. God warns us not to be mighty in our own eyes because this is vanity. in verse 13, it says , " Who can make that straight?" Have you given that much thought in considering something new? A new goal or new plan? Did you ever ask God what He thought? After all, He knows the outcome. I take time to pray every mor...
