Does Being Right Really Matter?

Recently I had a funny conversation with someone about Marketing. I attempted to share my “expertise” on a matter and yet she insisted on her way.
Funny enough, her way had led to a hole over the last few years, but I didn’t bring that up. (Although I wanted to. :))
After I got off the phone, I realized I wasn’t annoyed, upset or even moved by the conversation.
 Why?
Because I’ve changed! GLORY to God. It feels good to say that I know if I had that conversation a year ago, I would’ve been fuming for a few hours about it. Instead, it rolled off my back onto the floor and I didn’t pick it  up.

Growing up feels good. I don’t have to be right about everything… just most things. 🙂

What to do in the dry times?

If you know a Christian who says they don’t experience ‘dry times’, please send me their phone number.

Because dry times are a real part of a Christian’s walk. Recently I started feeling rather dry and empty, even though I prayed daily and read my bible, I just didn’t feel motivated to dig deep in seeking God. My bible felt heavy like a weight and prayer time felt burdensome.

So, what did I do?

I started taking baby steps each day.  See below.

 

1: Turn off the TV.

2: Turn on inspirational music.

3: Spend time thinking about what God has done for me. 

4: Read one encouraging scripture repeatedly.

5: Pray and ask God for the desire to be in His Word.

I can’t guarantee you the steps will work for you, however, it’s a start…keep me posted!

I love you and I’m praying for you!

Breaking Generational Curses (Part 2)

A few days ago, I started a series of blogs about generational curses. Here’s Dr. Bridget Hilliard at a Woman Thou Art Loosed Conference. I’ve listened to this sermon more than 30 times. This is POWERFUL especially if you have kids. I love you and I’m praying for you.

Breaking Generational Curses (Part 1)

When people hear the term “generational curses” they start thinking spooky. However, that kind of thinking can keep you and your family in chains.

Here’s the simplest way to explain it: A generational curse is a repeated sin tendency that passed from one generation to the next.

My paternal family has a history of drug addiction and crime. It caused my dad his life at age 51 and it also caused me to be more susceptible to certain types of behaviours and patterns.

When I got saved, I made a decision to break the curse in my generation so my children would never be defeated by the sins or iniquity of family members that are long gone.  This is a serious topic. It’s not a cute Sunday School lesson.

Do you know your family history? Are you hurting your kids because you were hurt? Do you lie easily the way your mom did? Regardless of your situation, if you are a Believer, then according to John 8:36, God has set you free.

In a few days, I’ll post a great video from a dynamic woman of God who shares about this topic.  Tell your family and friends about it and get ready!
