MIND RENEWAL Day 18: On Rewind

Today has been a busy day. I didn’t take the time to study yet, so I thought I’d present a little “REWIND” of a blog that fits where I am today.

Enjoy “Are You in the Will of God?”

I love you and I’m praying for you!

MIND RENEWAL DAY 14: Back On Track

Hey…..did anyone notice my days were not numbered correctly? I actually had two “Day 11’s”, so technically yesterday’s post was day 13 instead of day 12 etc. etc.

This brings me to a thought: in life, don’t we all get off course sometimes? Don’t we all have days when we feel amazing and unstoppable. Yet other days, we feel like wet socks.

Lifeless. Loveless. Ineffective.

Here’s the prescription: God’s Word.

In fact, my current meditation fits perfectly when you get off track with your purpose.

Psalm 119:165: Great peace have those who love your law,and nothing can make them stumble.

Nothing. Not even losing your way… just a little… think about it and join me in changing.

I love you and I’m praying for you.

Shake it Off!

Several years ago, my husband and I attended a rather interesting church service in New York. We giggled about the sermon because the preacher read a few scriptures about the Apostle Paul being bitten by the snake and how he had to “SHAKE IT OFF”.

Well, perhaps we were acting a little snooty at the time because after all, we were “non-denominational faith people” who didn’t care for this “type” of preaching.

However, throughout the years, that sermon is one of the most memorable, we’ve ever heard. 

WHY?

You guessed it.

When things got tough, we looked at each other and said, “come on honey, just shake it off!”
🙂

We had to “shake off” a lot throughout the years. I won’t say it works all the time, but at least it provides a little comic relief to help us get through tough times.

So the next time, an issue or challenge comes your way… remember who you are in Christ.

You were meant for more… much more.

Never get discouraged with your problems… come on and just shake it… I’ll let you finish this one!

I love you and I’m praying for you!

Why I Love God… Part 1

This title  might seem a little “churchy”, but it’s not all. It’s pretty simple. I love God and I’m not ashamed to say it.

If you’re reading this blog and you’re not a Christian or you’re on the fence, I want to keep it simple for you.

I love God and I serve God because He loves me more than I could ever love myself or anyone else.

He literally plucked me out of my own mess and set me apart, cleaned me up and gave me a new life.

It has never been my plan to serve Him.

Never.

Ever.

However, His divine plan for my life was so much sweeter and so much better than I could have ever imagined.

Please don’t run from God.

Embrace Him.

You won’t regret it.

I love you and I’m praying for you.

Making Good Decisions

Recently my husband and I talked about the bad decisions we made early on in life.

From leaving our jobs for an unprofitable business to purchasing a home we couldn’t afford to leasing a $30,000 car. (Yes, we actually leased a car and yes we had to turn it in after four years.)

He simply shook his head in disbelief as we recounted how far we’ve come over the years. We laughed at my tendency to be rather “deep” about things and his tendency to “go with the flow”. We’ve learned the hard way that making good decisions is very biblical and still very practical.

Jesus never called us to live a life contrary to His word. He called us to abide in His word, so His words would abide in us (John 15:7). So what does this mean when it comes to paying your bills? It means, if you have so much of God’s word in you, then God will ALWAYS lead you to make the right decisions… and his leading is never emotional. I repeat. God never leads us down an emotional road.

We do.

God is a God of practicality.

If 1 plus 1 doesn’t equal 2, then you should check the calculator you’re using. God will always add his super to our natural, but we’ve got to do our part. So if you’re in the middle of a making a major decision right now, then stop and think about the long-term impact and take your time to ensure you’re making the right decision.

Trust me. You’ll be so glad you did.

I love you and I’m praying for you.
