Mother Days

What an awesome thought... Today is mother's Day... It's great to think that God chose women to be a giver of life. Think about the huge responsibility that is.... not only to give life through birth, but to give life through our Words.... We give life to our children when we lift them up with encouragement, when we instruct and teach! Our words are so powerful.... use them wisely.

I'm blessed to be a mother and still have my mother here today.
Happy Mothers Day.

How's your Heart Attitude?

I was sooo sick for a few weeks with pneumonia... it kept me down longer than I've ever been. Thank you God it's behind me.
I've learned a few things... of course! I always tend to think there's a lesson in everything...
When I became a Christian I realized back then nothing happens by accident. I can either grow in faith, grow in character or someone else is watching how I get through the situation, with faith or like the world! Meaning; am I handling things with patience, joy, peace, Love... or am I handling thing with murmuring, complaining, negative attitude or blaming others. These are not characteristics of my Lord and Saviour..... or how I want to be.
Trust me, I tend to NOT handle thing quite the way I should. (the first time around)... I'm a life lessons of oops or yeah... I got it. It's a great adventure that I've realized, not to beat myself up when I miss the mark.... just to recognize it and move forward with expectations of change... (in me of course)
God is Good and He doesn't look at us from the outside, He looks at us from the inside.... how's your Heart Attitude! Have a Blessed Day, and Don't waste the Trial!

Bitter Sweet

I was spending time listening to a teaching on Ezekiel: Wow...I'm so greatful, God chose me to live in these days. What struck me in what I learned was this:
Eat my Word, it taste of Honey. If you digest the word it makes you stronger in faith, and wisdom sweetens your life. In Rev. 10:9 John experience a similiar experience. but it said sweet
going down, when you swallow it will be bitter to your stomach... at times its bitter sweet.
Sweet because its the Word of God comforting- encouraging- loving- forgiving as mentioned above wisdom and faith come.
Bitter because at times its so hard to be obedient, hard to learn the truth about ourselves. hard to make changes from habits you've done your whole life. Bitterly hard to look at character defects that are passed on from generations.
These are the things that God wants to change in us, the one's we can't, the one's we didn't even know were there or had no say in the character building years as a child.
God says, I know and it's okay, just acknowledge it and then give it to me. Don't beat yourself up, don't get into works... trying to hard and failing thinking it's something you can change.
It's my job to change you, it's your job to be obedient when I show you, you.
I love you to much to leave you there hurting your self, I love you to much to not change you to a happier, joyful, peaceful new creation in me.

So what I've taken out of this is, wow I'm glad I'm not God. Now- Help me to let go, and look at it (what ever it is at this time in your life) and then pass it on to him. I've also realized how good it feels to be in the Word spending time with God.
Have a Blessed day.....

What are you going to say?

I was thinking when you get to heaven and we meet the Lord, is He going to ask you how many baseball games did you win, or how long did you workout today, how many deer did you catch hunting, who wrote on your twitter, facebook today, how much did you benchpress, or how far did you jog today. How much overtime did you work, or how many showed up at happy hour today.

Or is he going to ask you did you love your wife/husband today. Did you give your kids a hug and let them tell you about thier day, if they pass there test at school, did someone bully them at the playground. Did your 15yr daughter get offended by a boy today. Were you there to be her hero, or mom were you there to hug her and give her confidence.
Is God going to ask you did you kiss your wife today, she wasn't feeling well. But didn't complain because she want to hear about your day.
Wife did you greet your husband and tell him how much you love him, and how thankful you are for all he does. Provides for the family, or helps around the house. Did you tell him he's your Hero!

These are the things that are important. We can live to be 100 or we can die tomorrow. ...what are people going to remember you most for? What are they going to miss the most about you?

Love is the most important thing! If we don't show it now, who's going to know.

Stop getting caught up in everything that's going to pass away, or be going on with out you when you pass away.
Leave a legacy behind... one called Love.

New Today

Today is the first day of blogging for me.
I've been on a mission to grow and practice writing for the book I will finish this year. This is a direct order from God.
I can't write, never been real good at pronouncing words correctly. (always being corrected). That's why I know this is from God, I would never want to write something so that I could be corrected. This is a new journey for me... it's call Humility! Obedience... this I've been practicing for years. I must say I'm better at obedience because

I have the Fear of the Lord..... in a Good Way!

I want the blessing from being obedient. Not the disappointment of gosh I wish I would have did that.... I hate that feeling of regret.
Anyways. My first blog is giving you an ideal of who I am and what to expect in the near future....
Practice my writing.... then my book!
