Decide

Isaiah 26:3 You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!

The enemy will try his hardest to defeat us for as long as we have breath in our bodies. We have to DECIDE to be unshakable.  Stay focused.  I’m not exempt.  I’m . . .

$$$

I usually don’t write about stuff like this, but as I prepare to travel I feel compelled to express my opinion. LOL BEING A WOMAN IS SUPER EXPENSIVE!!

If you know me, you know I am not much of a girlie girl at all.  I usually wear what’s comfortable; I’m not fancy schmancy.  I’m not into the latest hairdos. I only wear mascara, eyeliner, and lip gloss or good old Vaseline. 😀  I shouldn’t have to spend a lot of money on myself, right? WRONG!!

If you want to look decent, there’s a lot to consider.  For instance, I bought a dress with a different neckline and hemline. What was I thinking? 😀  Without going into too many details, I had to buy three additional items to avoid looking tacky. LOL If you’re a woman, you know exactly what I’m talking about.

But you know what, I’m so happy God made me the way I am.  Thank you, Lord.

Whew! Long Day!

don't give up

I’m working on a few things that are WAY bigger than me. I’m talking COLOSSAL. It’s all for the glory of God. Of course the enemy is always trying to stop the process anyway he can. It ain’t gonna happen though. I will keep moving forward no matter what. Who’s with me?

Chew On It!

I’ve always been a fast eater . . . greedy. LOL I’m not sure why, but instinctively I take big bites, chew 3 or 4 times, and then swallow. Here’s a gif to give you a visual. 😀

Funny and quite embarrassing, but very true. I have to purposely take small bites and chew several times before swallowing.  I’m sure you know, chewing is an important part of digestion.  As we chew the food, it mixes with saliva which carries a digestive enzyme called amylase . . . yada yada yada. LOL  Keeping it simple, the more we chew our food, the more we get out of it. We lower our risk of indigestion and we absorb more nutrients.

The same is true about the bible.  The more we study and meditate on God’s word, the more we absorb.  There’s power in God’s word.  Through that power we have the ability to change and be likeminded with Christ.  Listening to sermons and reading the bible is good. No doubt about it.  We need to also devote more time to the word (CHEW ON IT!) to get more out of it. I’m not exempt.  I’m . . .

Excellent Things

The weekend has arrived and we’re blessed to enjoy it. Things may not be exactly how we want them to be, but God is in control. Let’s continue to trust Him and stay focused. If at any moment you start feeling a little down, I dare you to say, I will bless the Lord at all times: His praise shall continually be in my mouth. (Proverbs 34:1)

Think on excellent things and enjoy your weekend.

Proverbs 16:24 says, Pleasant words are a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.

BFF

I saw a clip of a guy proposing to a woman on a talk show. He said his uncle told him if you have to get out of bed to speak to your best friend then you married the wrong person. What do you think about that statement?

I wouldn’t say “married the wrong person”, but I would wonder why a person’s spouse isn’t their best friend. Usually a best friend is the person who is the closest to us or the person who we share our innermost thoughts and feelings.

If your spouse isn’t your BFF, ask yourself why. Of course, to each it’s own. Just food for thought.

Persevere

I’m running out of time so I will just say in my Radio (from the movie, Radio.) voice “Don’t quit! Don’t quit!” You are guaranteed to win if you just stay focused on God and keep moving forward. Get up no matter how many times you fall. Get rid of the stinkin’ thinkin’ and don’t worry about other people’s opinions. Everyone’s race is different. Your hard work will pay off.

Leap of Faith

Go ahead. Try it. What’s the worst that can happen? You’ve prayed, studied, prepared, and had countless conversations with yourself about it. So do it. Take that  . . .

Keep On Keeping On

I love what I do for a living. I really do, but there’s a long list of things I can think of that would make it a lot easier. LOL 😀 Just saying.

mondiest LOL It’s rare, but I do feel like this sometimes. 😀

 

I constantly remind myself that God will (and has) provide all my needs according to His riches and glory in Christ Jesus. He knows exactly what I need. As long as I stay focused on Him, things work out just fine. One of my favorite bible verses is Colossians 3:23 which says, Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. 

That’s my “keep on keeping on” verse. What’s yours?

Love On Ya Peeps!

It’s Friday folks, the beginning of another weekend. Antoine and Scout are both snoring and I’m working on a project. LOL Be safe and don’t lose focus no matter what’s going on around you. Isaiah 41:10 says, So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.  I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Love on ya peeps! 😀 I know I will . . . my hubby and my dog (She’s not a peep, but I will make an exception.). 😀 Be blessed!
