Before you head out!

 


What if you woke up with only the things you thanked God for?

I saw that post today and I realized that this question or statements similar to this, are normally overlooked. We as human beings like to be where we are appreciated and celebrated but not where we are just tolerated.

We get frustrated when we give things our all and sometimes even going the extra mile for persons who did not ask for our help but needed it! So, we get upset and decide to lessen what we do to teach them a lesson. 

So back to the question....What if you woke up with only the things you thanked God for? meaning, what if your life is a clear representation of the value you place on people and things? We may have eyes, ears, mouth, legs, hands, a heart or essentials like air or water. Now when it is taken away, we beg God for the miracles we read about in the Bible. People have disabilities due to accidents, birth defects, chronic illnesses and now COVID. All of these things affect what is thought of as 'little things' which have a massive impact on our standard of living.

Scripture tells us to "be thankful in everything, in all circumstances" (1 Thessalonians 5:18). Because God does not need anything else from us. 

So in this time of uncertainty let us be thankful. Share your gratitude with someone who probably was going to give up on life, share with your family and friends and let us spread love!


So before you leave this page, post something or things that you are grateful for...

    I am thankful that God is merciful and that His love for me is unconditional. If He wasn’t oh where would I be!

5 WAYS TO GETTING BACK ON TRACK

Today, you may not be feeling like your usual self. You may be down thinking there is no possible way to get back up again. As a result, we continue to feed our disappointments with constant feelings of doubt and hopelessness. Why do we do the things we do? We hope for the best BUT we expect the worst. We start off a task with a Plan A (the ultimate desire of our hearts) BUT, we still have a Plan B "just in case things do not work out". Are we not trusting God enough to order our steps? Are we failing to recognize the fact that we are fearfully and wonderfully made? Jeremiah 29:11&12 states.. . " For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the   Lord , thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. 12  Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you." As prosperity flows, happiness grows. As pain expands, FAITH demands, so leave everything in God's hands. I thought about som...
