Welcome

Welcome to my blog. More nights than not I am up well past the midnight hour. Burning the midnight oil, some might say. I believe it is because I enjoy the "me time". The hubby and the grandson are in bed, the phone is not ringing, I don't have to stop what I am doing to take care of something or someone else. I can watch what I want on TV or not at all if I want. I can turn the volume down or mute it if I want! It's all about me.....and usually God.

It's usually me and Facebook, until all my friends say goodnight and sign off, then it's me and God. We have these talks and He usually shows me something profound.Usually I am amazed at why I never "got it" before. At that very second, I have an "aha" moment, then find somewhere to record it, whether it be on a blog (I've started a few) or journal, (started even more of those), write it in my bible, which has many profound "ahas", or just write it on a piece of paper,that gets put aside and then years later is found to be read again...at just the right moment! An "aha" moment. It all comes full circle. Just like life.

Did you ever notice how people come into your lives at just the right time? Then you go years without seeing or talking to them, then poof, one day you run into them again and you pick up just where you left off. That's how God is. Even though we are not always faithful and loyal to him, He never leaves us. We may not always be thinking of Him or even include Him into our day, but He is always there for us when we call on Him.

Do not dread tomorrow

Dreading tomorrow is a belief that it is going to be a worse day than a past one. It's a lack of faith that you are going to have a good day. IF YOU set yourself to accomplish what you say you are going to do, things are going to happen! Trust in the Lord to guide your footsteps! Have simple faith in what God wants you to do. Even if it's something you don't want to do, do it! There are miracles attached to the most simplest of acts of obedience. When you are out of the realm of God, not walking in the light of God's grace, it is easy to fail and be out of place.

Wisdom

Wisdom always chooses to do now what it will be satisfied with later.    Start your day asking God for wisdom. Make right choices using wisdom.

To blessed to be stressed!

I love this! To blessed to be stressed! As I watch two beautiful women of God play a game show on tv I marvel at their faith, composure, and belief in God. They are playing for a half million dollars....giving much of it to a ministry to build ophanages. Their motto: Live to Give! What a wonderful motto. How proud God must be of these young christian women. He must be filled with joy each time He hears them lift Him up. To blessed to be stressed. wow!

It's a good day, a good, good day!

Though the rain is falling and it's freezing outside, it's a beautiful day! Though we waited an hour and a half past our dr appointment time, it's a good day! I choose for it to be a good day! I will not let anything change my attitude! I praise the most high God for this good, good day!

I'm back and with a new attitude!

It's been a while since I posted. I was waiting on my cable internet to get installed. Finally it has. Today was a very stressfull day while the gentleman installer worked to get me connected, I ranted and raved about not getting my "wireless" internet that we ordered. I'm such a child sometimes! Well, after questioning hubby to find out exactly what he told the lady on the phone we wanted, I figured out it was probably not conveyed to the company that we wanted wireless. Anywho....sorry Lord for acting like such a spoiled brat!

Tonight Lord, is the first night of the rest of my life! I am going to choose to spend the rest of my life happy and full of joy and love. I will not entertain bad decisions, choices, thoughts, nor actions. I choose to be happy and have a good attitude. I will wait upon the Lord for blessings and I will be generous giving to those in need. I am the head and not the tail and I refuse to let the devil trompal me down! I will be blessed when I rise and blessed when I lie down! Every day is a blessed day for me. No weapon formed against me shall prosper! This is the day the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it! I expect good things to happen! I love you Lord and praise you will all my might!!!! Praise be to God!
