As promised, I'm back with some tips and suggestions to help us all become more physically, mentally, and spiritually fit. Physically fit: Personally, I love spinflex and spin class & do that 3 times a week. The other 2 days I attend another fitness class and each day I workout at least an hour. That's …
Peeling and Tossing
It struck me, as I was thinking on The Mended Heart bible study that I'm doing, and I asked God to peel back the layers. To show me "me" and to unearth the things that I've covered up in order to live "normally". He wants to heal me completely. To peel back each layer and …
Quit Believing Lies
Let me just jump right on in and say: WE HAVE to QUIT believing the LIES that WE tell ourselves! Oh, you don't lie to yourself? Really? You just lied. "I'm NOT GOOD ENOUGH". "They'll think I'm stupid." "UNWORTHY" "I'm just a ..... (you fill in the blank.)" "There's already a book, blog, …
New Year New Me
Look here, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we are going to a certain town and will stay there a year. We will do business there and make a profit.” How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like the morning fog—it’s here a little while, then it’s gone. …
Some Days are Hard
SHORT and SWEET SIMPLE TRUTHS Some days ARE harder than others. Harder to choose joy. Harder to be patient. Harder to believe that things will get better. ROMANS 12:12 ~ Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. I don't know about you, but on those days, I'm even more heaven ready. …
Saying NO to the Good Things
I'm a work in progress. Mostly, in progress. 🙂 Philippians 1:6 (NIV) ~ being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. For the past several months I have been learning to say "NO" without feeling guilty. That can …
Don’t Be A Blessing Robber
There are times when we least expect it that GOD reaches out and loves on us. We don't deserve it, none of us do, but HE freely gives us HIS LOVE. I don't know why it still shocks me sometimes... My FATHER GOD, HE loves me! So much that HE speaks to me in …
Not So Excellent At Times
Recently, I completed a bible study on a book called, The Excellent Wife. Martha Peace is the author. This book was very convicting and challenging at times. There were even days when I wanted to throw it out the door. (haha) Why? Because...SELF didn't feel like being that EXCELLENT on that day. But...God would …
Just Take That Step
I have gotten into the habit of saying that I have a "brown thumb". Truth is, I have had a LAZY thumb. Yes, you heard that right. It's a matter of discipline. Remembering to water, feed, and weed these plants. It's a choice. To watch them grow to their full potential or let them starve …
HER TESTIMONY
Philippians 4:13 ~ I can do everything through HIM who gives me strength. Isaiah 40:31 ~ but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Psalm 34:4 ~ I sought The Lord, …
