Motivational Monday

Colossians 4 (KJV)

4 Masters, give unto your servants that which is just and equal; knowing that ye also have a Master in heaven. 2 Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving; 3 Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds: 4 That I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak. 5 Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time. 6 Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.

This passage of Scripture really highlights the importance of prayer. There are so many that one could refrence but this one actually says to " continue in prayer." Our Country needs prayer. Our President needs prayer. OUr church leaders need prayer. We, servants, need prayer. Everyone needs prayer. No one is exempt from death. However, No one is exempt from God's wonderful mercy either !

God wants us to have things that we desire, but He wants us to take time to ask Him. Sometiems I pray and not even ask Him anything I just say, "Thank YOU, Lord! You've been so very good !" Either way we need to start praying. That's why I keep a prayer journal. I just learned a new technique. I am going to start writing down the questions I have. I am also going to mark one, single, line through the ones that God answer and mark the dates. I think it is good to reflect on these kind of things. It helps one be more thankful on their journeys.

Prayer-- Lord, help me to be more Thankful. Please help me not to grumble and complain on issues that I can't control. I know you have a plan and everything will work together for my own good. IN Jesus, Sweet Name, Amen.

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. 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 !!

Keeping a Positive Outlook

 There is nothing more depressing than a person who is always negative. It seems so hard to contain a positive outlook on life. Writing is a way for me to relax and reflect on Gods many mercies and wonderful things that He has in store for my future. I try to stay away from Negative Nancy" as they say and surround myself with people who have the same interests as I do.   If at all possible, I would like to encourage others along the way as well. Everyone has their hurdles to jump, no matter how tall they might seem.  Until you have walked in someone else's shoes, do not judge them.    Someone else's battles may seem small to someone from a far distance when in reality the certain difficulty might be a lot strenuous than it seems. That person just may know how to smile through their tears better than just rolling in them all day long.  I know some people that do not look handicap at all because the handicap is not visible to the naked eye but they need...
