8 Things

Think on these 8 things daily...



Know that you are loved..For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 (NIV) You probably know this verse by "heart" and have repeated it a thousand times but do you truly believe it in your "heart?"



Refuse to live in fear; fear and worry are tools of the enemy. Fear and Faith cannot occupy the same space.



Be positive and think positive thoughts - do go negative.
  • In Philippians 4:8 gives us our thought pattern - whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. (I like how it reads in the KJV)

 Recover from setbacks quickly. I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13 (KJV)


 Avoid comparisons.

Take action - Faith is an action word. Without faith it is impossible to please God. Hebrews 11:6 (NIV)
  • What comes to mind when you think about God is what you really think about God.

 Don't live in "if only" or "what if." Don't live in the past - move forward. Forget the past look to the future. (Isaiah 43:18 - NIV)
  • God is able to make a new beginning - He makes ALL thing new. He turns or test into testimonies and our messes into messages.

 Don't always play it safe. If you always do what you've always done and expect a different result - that my friends is the definition of insanity! Try something new and different - a new hairstyle, new lipstick shade, take the scenic route instead of the quickest route. 
  • God turns endings into new beginning.
















Be blessed and be a blessings!
I've been reading through some of my old journals and this leaped off the page, so I thought I would share. From the pages of my journal dated July 26, 2013

Good Friday

  Happy Good Friday   This is the day that we remember what Jesus did for us --- enduring beating, mocking, and being crucified.   I imagine his disciples did not consider it to be a “good” Friday at the time. But what makes it GOOD is what happened on Sunday --- when Jesus did the impossible and rose from the dead.    Knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot.  ~ 1 Peter 1:18-19 ESV   One of the best ways of celebrating Jesus and His Resurrection…is through family traditions.    Family traditions can be as simple as attending  ️  church and having lunch or brunch together.    Jesus was a story-teller. I believe he knew the power of a story to capture hearts and bring joy while effectively delivering a specific message. He often used parables to teach.  Do you have a favorite Bible Story or family tradition? A G

Why God Wants to Bless You!

  Why God Wants to Bless You!   “For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have an abundance. But from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away” (Matthew 25:29, ESV). Do you know that God wants to bless you? He wants you to have abundance, lacking no good thing. But He doesn’t want that for you and me so we can merely enjoy our lives. He wants us to steward our resources so we can be better able to reach out to others and bless them in His name. Jesus said in Matthew 5:16 (ESV),   “…let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”   The goal is fruitfulness. The goal is God’s Kingdom. The goal is for God’s blessing to flow through us so we might be a blessing to others, to the glory of His name!
