Reflect

Walk humbly with the Lord. Recognize that HIS ways are better than your ways. Trust HIS will for you, because the Lord is Good, ALL the time.

Letting to Better

Letting go of control

Letting go of perfection

Letting go of pain

Letting go of mistakes

Letting go the need to have things go your way

Letting go (which can sometimes feel easier said than done) will only produce one thing. That one thing is: Something better.

Holding

Grasping

Forcing

Fighting

Dwelling

These are things God wants you to release your grip on. God is in control and you must show that you trust HIM. If something is not working, then God must have a good reason, so be at peace. Let go.

When you let go, you will soon see doors open to what you want, and the best part is: It will be better than what you were holding on to.

Gold

"Truth, like gold, is to be obtained not by its growth, but by washing away from it all that is not gold."
~ Leo Tolstoy

The truth is valuable, just like gold. The world can hand out gold, but once you really look at it and wash it, that gold was nothing but a yellow man made rock. Get your gold from God. God’s gold is always valuable, always current, always reliable, and it never fades or wears in the storms of life. You don’t need to tread in murky waters shifting for your nuggets of gold; all you need is to learn God’s word. God’s word, God’s character…now that is pure gold!

Scripture Sunday

John 14:27

"I am leaving you with a gift - peace of mind and heart! And the peace I give isn't fragile like the peace the world gives. So don't be troubled or afraid."

Quote

      “If you don't think every day is a good day,

just try missing one."

~Cavett Robert

Powerful!

If this quote doesn’t make you stop, think, and appreciate….then I don’t know what will!

Forward Friday

USATODAY has an article expressing the benefits of a hug. Did you know benefits are attached to hugs? Let me fill you in on some of the article highlights.

It doesn’t matter if you receive a quick hug or have a long-embraced hold…that hug will help reduce stress in your body. Who doesn’t want to reduce stress, especially nowadays? Our human bodies need social contact.

This Forward Friday is (you guessed it) a hug. Give someone you know a hug today. If a hug seems awkward, (let’s say at work) than try something simple, like a pat on the back with a job well done speech.

Make an effort to lower someone’s stress levels, and the best part is…you’ll lower your stress levels too.

Enjoy your Friday!

Be in the Zone

Declare a worry free zone today.

Instead of worry, be at peace.

Give your cares to the Lord.

Be content and allow the Lord to walk with you.

Don’t let people or situations invade your zone today.

Let the Lord be in control of your zone!
