Living The Life




I heard on co-worker ask the other co-worker how was it going. To his reply came, "living the dream."  Are you living the life?  Ecclesiastes 5:18 says, "...it is good and comely for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labor that he taketh under the sun all the days of his life, which God giveth him for it is his portion."  God wants you to live a happy, stress-free full life. Don't allow anyone to take that from you. This day, when someone come towards you with aggression, smile.  Maybe there was a death in the family and that person is just angry.  When your enemy hate you without a cause, thank God. God maybe preparing a table before you in their presence, which has set them off (smiles).  When threaten to lose your job, rejoice. Your boss may not have the respect of the company like he or she thought and wants to take away your joy--not knowing God gave you your job.   When blessed, praise God. There's more where that came from.   Living life means to move about earth with your hand in God's hand. It's not about how much power, wealth and prestige you can get. It's the little things that matter. Next time you drive by and see someone sleeping under a bridge, with no clothes, shoes or nothing to eat, just think it could have been you. Without God's love, where would you be?  Don't let anyone take away your life's joy because they are having a bad day. Live your life!

Understanding It Better By and By

    Funny how life has a way of showing you what you’re made of.  When adversity hits, what you say you wouldn't do becomes easier to do.  When the rubber meets the road, yes! you do the unthinkable.  Let's say you have a house fire and on the second floor is your baby and mom. You can only save one, which would it be? I've heard many say they would grab the baby since mom has been around a long time. I couldn't say.  I'm not in that situation right now.  There's no way to know what to do until tragedy hits.  Some can handle atrocities, whereas; other have no clue how to maneuver suffering nor know why hardship occurs.  Stop trying to figure out why hardships happens--only the Father knows.  He won't  have you guessing long.      The underlining reason at the end of your trials gives away the mystery. Experiencing hardship isn't fun but you will come out with more insight than ever before.  Instead of getting angry with God regarding your circumst

You Can Make It, If You Try

Too many time we doom ourselves before we try anything. Take Moses for instance; God called Moses to deliver his people from pharaoh's hands.  The first thing Moses utter was, "Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh and bring back your children?"(Exd 3:11) Even if God knew Moses couldn't do it, He would have given Moses what he needed for task.  God opens windows and doors for us because he believes in us and we close the door saying, "that's too hard, what else you got?" This is the very reason prosperity is not attain--no one wants to work towards it. The key word is "work". One thing God didn't do was accept Moses' excuses, rather, He gave him the resources to accomplish the task.          Are you faced with a task you think is out of your league? Whatever God called you to do today, do it.  Don't worry about finances, doors or people. He will give you everything you need (Phil 4:19). You need to walk towards the task by
(A Poem to keep your focus during trying times) It's Not Always Easy It's not always easy to smile and be nice, when you are called to sacrifice. It's not always easy to put others first. Especially when tired and feeling  your worst. It's not always easy to do the Father's Will. It wasn't so easy for Jesus to climb Calvary's Hill. But we as HIS Children should learn to obey; not seeking our own, but seeking HIS way. It's not always easy to fight the good fight, but it's always good and its always right! K eep your head to sky. Keep the faith. Stay strong. What comes your way, God will handle. What isn't easy, is done to see if you will do what's right. Make the Father proud, by putting your armor on (Eph Chapter 6.)
