Rolling waves of the ocean flowing to towards the shore, beats across what ever is in its path. Even though there is a moment of friction, the waves still reach, the shore.
As life throws waves of friction, continue to stay strong and keep moving towards the goal. God will still the waves.
Psalm 89:9 Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.

Praying does not mean convincing God to do your will, but His will through you. God needs a willing vessel to yield unto Him, to do His work of preaching the Good News about Him. The question rings, how do you know your purpose? Look at what you are currently doing at work and ask God how you can use your gift in the Kingdom of God. God will show you exactly were you fit.

We need to exam our lives and look at what we are doing. Does our work reflect Christ? Does our life reflect Christ? Are we bench warmers? Are we helping the body of Christ? Are we getting involved so we can find our purpose in Christ? If I did not take the opportunity to work with the nursery, kindergartens and 1st graders at church, I would not have known that I have gift to teach. I really enjoy teaching the Word to young ones and they also teach me. There is never a dull moment.
2 Corinthians 13:5 (Living Bible)
Check up on yourselves. Are you really Christians? Do you pass the test? Do you feel Christ’s presence and power more and more within you? Or are you just pretending to be Christians when actually you aren’t at all?

At the end of the day, one should be able to look back and see some progress towards a goal. If you have no goal, I suggest that you get one. Goals are measurable and it keeps once focused. As I look over my day, a lot had to be done and I still got to my goal. I started after 9 pm, but I did it. The time given each day can be wasted or used wisely.
Ecclesiastes 3:1 KJV To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.
The day starts and your plans are set. A few hours into the day and your plans start to fall apart. What do you do? Fall apart or keep it moving. That was my day. My plans had a detour, but it was for good. At first I was trying to figure out how was this going to work. I just had to trust God. At the end of the day I got things accomplished and still had my Celebration on time.
What is the moral of this blog, sometimes adjustments need to be made and it works out for good.

Do not let the stresses of life become your focus. Take the time to unwind. Relax and take time for yourself. God did His creation in six days and on the seventh day He rested. Genesis 2:3 And God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it; because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made. Even Christ took time away for himself after ministering to the people.
Stress leads to health problems when it is not dealt with. Such heath problems are high blood pressure and obesity. Pickup a book and read. Watch a movie or exercise. Remember to kept God in the midst of your heart and your day.

3 When I refused to confess my sin,
my body wasted away,
and I groaned all day long.
4 Day and night your hand of discipline was heavy on me.
My strength evaporated like water in the summer heat. Interlude
5 Finally, I confessed all my sins to you
and stopped trying to hide my guilt.
I said to myself, “I will confess my rebellion to the Lord.”
And you forgave me! All my guilt is gone.
Luke 18:35-42 (KJV)
35 And it came to pass, that as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging:
36 And hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it meant.
37 And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by. 38 And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me. 39 And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more, Thou son of David, have mercy on me. 40 And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near, he asked him, 41 Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight. 42 And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.
The Faith of the blind man moved Jesus in such a way, that Jesus stopped an asked “What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? It did not matter that the man was in the crowd and people told him to be quiet. No! He yelled louder, Son of David, have mercy on me!! His Faith, stopped God! His Faith moved Heaven! He received his sight!

A routine is not always easy to get used to. It is trying, as it goes against everything you have been doing. It also throws you off-balance.
Balance here is key. One must be able to balance the things required and still follow the new process.
Proverbs 16:11 (The Jewish Study Bible) The balance and scales of justice have their own origin in Adonai; all the weights in the bag are His doing.
Know that Adonai (God) is the originator of being in balance and He is with you. Do not give up, keep pressing forward.

Ecclesiastes 3:1 King James Version
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.
One thing we can never retract is time. Time is wrapped around us like the air we breathe. When we inhale and exhale, time is gone. Find time to pray and enjoy family and friends. Find time just to enjoy life and laugh. Find time to love. Finding time to do this will make a difference in our lives. When we look back over our life as time goes on, we want to be able to say ” I enjoyed my time with no regrets”.

While getting some exercise, walking,I began to fill pain in my leg. I kept going and began to speak words of healing and strength. By Jesus strips I am healed. Those who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength.They shall run and not get weary, the shall walk and not faint. Thank you Lord for strength in my knees, in my legs, in my ankles and in my body.
I did not go fast, but I kept a slow steady pace.
On my return back home, the pain started again and I had to walk up a slight incline. Then the song “I Believe “started on my radio.
My spirit began to quicken. Then the song “War” started playing.
Yes, there is a war going on and I win in Christ Jesus. I made it home with some pep in my step.
When you least expect it, God shows up to help push you through till the end.
Do not give up, only believe.

King James Version (KJV)
12 Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
Thank God for His mercy. We would I be without it? Mmmm, maybe not in a good place or further behind in my purpose for here on earth.
Mercy is defined as a blessing that is an act of divine favor or compassion, a fortunate circumstance.
Joseph’s brothers sold him into slavery because they were jealous and God showed him mercy and gave him favor in the sight of Potiphar. Potiphar made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand. This is God making what the devil meant for evil for good. Joseph was well favored.
Joseph was handsome and Potiphar’s wife wanted to lie with him. Now why does this women who has all that she wants, want to lie with Joseph? That is another story in itself, I will not go there. Potiphar’s wife tried to seduce Joseph. He refuses her and runs away. In his haste, he does not pull his garment from Potiphar’s wife ‘s hand and he leaves behind his garment. Here is what she did.
16 And she laid up his garment by her, until his lord came home. 17 And she spake unto him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew servant, which thou hast brought unto us, came in unto me to mock me: 18 And it came to pass, as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled out. 19 And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his wife, which she spake unto him, saying, After this manner did thy servant to me; that his wrath was kindled. 20 And Joseph’s master took him, and put him into the prison, a place where the king’s prisoners were bound: and he was there in the prison.
God again showed Joseph mercy and He gives him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison. What the devil meant for evil, God made it for good. God set the devil up. The devil thought Joseph would not succeed and through these adverse circumstances Joseph learned and was being groomed for God’s purpose.
What can one learn from the story of Joseph? No matter what the cost, stand firm for God and He will bless you for doing His will. Also,for being on God’s side, you will be blessed even though the circumstances do not look good.

I Corinthians 9:26-27 English Standard King James
26) Therefore I run thus;not with certainty. Thus I fight:not as one who beats the air. 27) But, I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.
Everyday I rise with a choice to put my best foot forward in all things or just do nothing. What does nothing bring? Nothing! At work my job performance and leading would be meaningless. If I did nothing, I would be disqualified. My role as a mother and wife, would have no fruit. How can I represent my husband and my children if I did nothing. Really? No cooking, no cleaning, no washing, no working, no helping with homework, no listening to the children’s problems or questions, no listening to my husband, just eating, sleeping and making a mess. Who can I lead if I do nothing? Who can I help if I do nothing?
What does putting my best foot forward bring? It brings peace of mind, satisfaction, a sense of accomplishment, laughter, a happy home and enjoying work. Disciplining oneself to stay on task, completing what is required, listening and helping is a positive output. One is representing themselves as leader who is qualified, certain and capable. In all the things that ones does, do it as if you are doing it unto the Lord. Keeping the Lord at the forefront, keeps things into perspective. See, being a leader is being a greater servent and helper. Yes, you lead, but the majority of the time you are serving others and by your service to others you are setting a Godly example.

We have made it to mid-week. Summer is approaching and you know what we tend to do. We get that quick diet plan to lose pounds before the summer hits.
Instead of the quick fix diet, how about a life style change in eating? We eat to live. Food is one of the vital things we need to survive.
Now, in all this exercising what about our mind? Having peace of mind and in the soul is important. There is one who can give you and I peace in the midst of every situation. His name is Christ Jesus.

While walking this morning, my leg began to bother me so much that I almost reached for my cell to call for help. Instead, I spoke the Word of God and brought God’s Word back to His remembrance.

Faith, Forgiveness and Love (FFL) are the language of the body of Christ.
Faith
When things are not going the way we intended or we are being misused or mistreated, it is the word of Faith the keeps us going. Hebrews 11:1, 6 states now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. We are speaking things into existence by our words. Did not God use His words to create this world, the things within and us?
Forgiveness
Then came Peter to Jesus, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? 22 Jesus saith unto him, I say to thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven. (Matthew 18:21-22). If we do not forgive our brothers and sister, then God will not forgive us. Jesus, said Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.(Luke 23:24) Jesus asked forgiveness for us and God forgave us. God loved us so much that He gave his only begotten son to die on the cross so that we my be connected with Him again.
Love
Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. (I Corinthians 13: 4-7). Love heals a multitude of sins.
FFL is the language of the body of Christ.

Sometimes though, my week is not so productive, but I learned something today, while reading “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young. ” Most things that tangle my mind is not today’s concern’s, it is for tomorrow”.

Genesis 19:29 (King James Version)
29 And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt.
It is my season for grace and favor, it is my season to reap where I have sown. I am pretty sure you have heard the song “It’s Working” by William Murphy. It is my season for grace and favor, it is my season to reap where I have sown is the opening lines to the song.
In the selected passage we see that God remembered Abraham and sent Lot out of the midst of trouble. For the seed that Lot sown with Abraham, the man of God, Lot was granted favor and grace by being in relationship with Abraham. Beloved, when you help and pray for the man and woman of God, God will remember. In the case of Lot, he was saved from destruction. It is good news to know that God will bless you for helping His people. As you are praying over God’s chosen, you are sowing seeds in God that can be reaped in the future.

God is a creator. He increases and does not allow waste.
In the parable of the talents we see that master gave 3 servants some talents. One he gave five, one he gave two and another he gave one. Each servant was given according to his own ability. The master left and would return at an appointed time excepting to reap from what was given to his servant. Upon his return, the servant who had 5 talents earned 5 more. He was made ruler over many because he was faithful with the little that was given to him. The servant who had 2 talents earn 2 more. Likewise, he was made ruler over many because he was faithful with the little that was given to him. They both were told to enter in the joy of their lord. The servant who had one talent earned nothing. He hid the talent in the ground. The one talent was taken from the servant and given to the one that had 5. Why? The servant did not use is talent, he wasted it by hiding it.
Our talents are given to us by God to be used and shared with others to show the love of God. How can we brighten up someones day with a smile, if we never smile? If the smile was meant for us to see, we would see our smiles without needing a mirror or something that has a reflection. If our songs were not meant for others to hear, we would have not need to hear.
Do not waste your talent, use it for the glory of God.

The struggle in the morning is real when it comes to getting up and ready. Now, the intent is there to be up early to spend time with God, but that sleep just is ah so good. The heart and motive are right but now the time is short and it seems like there is no time for God. There is time, grab your Bible and say a verse or two. Say thank you Lord, that is a prayer. Before you know it, your day will begin to shift as God is put 1st and a calmness will settle within you.

Prison building, jail cell, bob wire fences and iron bars are not just physical, it is also mental. The hope and dreams that use to run wild in your mind is now locked up in the prison of your mind. Hurts and failures are seen as a reason to give up on the dream in your heart. Awaken from your slumber and remember the dream is a start. Begin to write what you see and dare to trust God and move toward your dream to see it become a reality.

Have you ever woke up with something so strong on your heart regarding someone else and when you prayed God instructed you to read and He gave YOU words of encouragement ? That was me today. In my quest to be debt free and owe nothing to one, I swear bills are coming out of no where.

In reading Deuteronomy 8:7-10 and Proverbs 10:22 and it gave me encouragement. I hope this help you too.
7 For the Lord thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills; 8 A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of oil olive, and honey; 9 A land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not lack any thing in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills thou mayest dig brass. 10 When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the Lord thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.

In the midst of this brisk cold morning, one can find warmth in cuddling up in your blanket or drinking a nice cup of hot tea. In spite of the spring season with winter weather, we can all relate to seasons in our lives that moves us into another area of learning.

As I move about the day and move through the rain, I have to acknowledge the beauty of the day. The grey sky with a light background, which let’s me know the sun is wanting to break through. The Son of God, Christ Jesus wants to break some things up in our lives, so that we can have joy and peace.
John 16:13 English Standard Version
I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”
Do you want joy and peace? Allow Christ to come into your space today.
Peace and Love
4 A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit.
We have the power in the words that we speak to uplift or bring down. We are called to give hope to others, not hatred or gossip. Rise up my brother and sister and speak life.
Be Blessed!
