Taking Inventory of my Thoughts

 
While I sit here with my mind running over things that have happened this week, situations I could have done or handled differently. So my mind is idling, which isn't always good because it can easily give Satan a foothold in my mind. Psalm 19:14 reads, " May the words of my mouth and meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O LORD, my Rock, and my Redeemer." I can breathe and put these thoughts into my savior's hands. I can meditate on his goodness and give him praise with my mouth. Give Him the glory that he was with me in my classroom this week. He provided help when I needed it. Understand that no matter what, Jesus is my Rock and my Redeemer. Jesus loves you and me. Think about Jesus.

God's Offspring

                                                   We are His Offspring The focus reading comes from Acts 17:28, "For in him we live and move and have our being." As some of your own poets have said, ' We are his offspring.'" Understanding that we were created by God Himself to reflect His image can often weigh heavily on us, reminding us that we were created with love through Him. He is our everything that we could possibly need but yet some do not know him. How do we show them? By displaying the love that God has for us. We are His creation. Do our lives represent God? Do we have characteristics that someone who sees us can understand that we have a relationship with our eternal Father? Granted, none of us is perfect, and neither is living in this world.  I know I often fail sometimes, and I have to talk with God every day to build a relationship stron...

Day 23~ The Battle Belongs to the Lord~ waiting on God~ Our battle cry

Image
Good afternoon! Isn't God is good! We have come a long ways in our discussion through Joyce Meyer's book, " 100 ways to simplify your life." Day 22~ The Battle Belongs to the Lord~ Our scripture reading comes from 2 Chronicles 20:17, " You shall not need to fight in this battle; take your positions, stand still, and see the deliverance of the Lord [who is] with you, O Judah and Jerusalem." Wow! Take a moment and let that verse sink deep into your heart. Matter fact, find a note card and write this one down. Life throws us lemons, we just need to learn how to handle them. So many times we try to fight every battle that we come into contact with only to find ourselves getting discouraged, disappointed, overwhelmed, and we can easily mess it up. If we look at 2 Chronicles 20: 17-22, God gives Jehoshaphat"...You will not have to fight this battle." We can break it down into three simple steps. Jot this down! Step 1. Seek the Lord f...

Day 38~ Don't Worry About Your Children~ Teaching your Children~ We are all God's Children

Image
Welcome to day 38 with our discussion through Joyce Meyer's book, " 100 ways to simplify your life." The biggest thing that we worry about is our children. I don't have any children of my own, but I feel I am still responsible for all the children I meet. It is so important to realize how special each one is. We are going to look deeper in how not to worry so much over our children that are placed into our lives. Day 38 ~ Don't Worry About Your Children~ Our scripture reading is from Matthew 6:27, " And who of you by worrying and being anxious can add one unit of measure (cubit) to his stature or to the span of his life?" Worrying is like a rocking chair that keeps rocking but you aren't going nowhere. I am not a parent but I have babysat, raised nieces and nephews, and was a daycare teacher for 20 years. It is hard sometimes not to worry about them. My nieces and nephews are my heart ! I would do anything for them. They are back here in N...
