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...

Terrific Tuesday

The Priority Principal Priority according to dictionary.com  means  the right to take precedence in obtaining certain supplies, services, facilities, etc., especially during a shortage. In life, we all must set priorities.  Not only must we set priorities, we must decide which priorities" will help us succeed.  Making lists help me tackle tasks but they also help me visualize my priorities. “A morning-glory at my window satisfies me more than the metaphysics of books.” ― Walt Whitman Establish a base point and determine what your strengths and weaknesses are.  Don't compare to others,  God gave us each a special" light to shine....we need to shine it. Once picking the top priorites,  keep your focus on those priorites and the others will fall in place. Age doesn't matter here, but, according to Nature, we each get older every day, so learning to set priorites when we are young will make a difference on ...
