July 13: Don’t Let Uncertainty Keep You…

Affirmation: I nourish my body, mind spirit.

Take just 5 minutes to ponder and quiet yourself. Feed your soul with gratitude, appreciation and kindness that you see in the world around you and in yourself. 
~~~~~~~
Ponder, Personalize, Practice: Practice the promise of accepting and acknowledging the gift of God’s unfailing love and His covenant of peace. Whatever you are wrestling with today, this weekend, this month…God is with you and He loves you without fail. ❤️

“Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed,” says the Lord, who has compassion on you.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭54‬:‭10‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Don’t let uncertainty keep you from pursuing your purpose. Love people along the way.
Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before you. Proverbs 4:25
Oprah was fired from her first television job for getting too emotionally invested in her stories. Thomas Edison‘s teachers told him he was too stupid to learn anything. J.K. Rowling was on welfare when she started writing Harry Potter. It seems no good thing or great success comes on a silver platter.

It may seem counterintuitive, but if success came easily, most people would see their visions die – because visions only come to life with a lot of hard work and unwavering persistence. Challenges draw something out of us that easiness could never ignite. If the reason behind our vision, lacks purpose, if it’s to become famous or earn approval, we get discouraged the moment we face rejection. We’ll likely throw up our hands and walk away because we believe we missed the mark. But if our vision is tied to a clear purpose, we won’t be discouraged when times get tough.

Turn the volume down on your doubts and stay focused on your purpose. Set aside the belief that the end goal will come quickly. It’s the process, with all the ups and downs and triumphs, and misstarts, that will ultimately get you there. In the meantime, surround yourself with people in need and give away love like you’re made of it. If it takes a little longer to achieve your goals, you’re doing things that last.

What do you need to do today to refocus on your purpose?

    I will write what I want to be on the wall of my house and speak over my dreams.
    Speak the word of God over your purpose,Proverbs 18:21 KJV
    [21] Death and life are in the power of the tongue: And they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
    My purpose and dreams shall not die for its  written  in Jeremiah 29:11 KJV
    [11] For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

    This is like the example of Neihemiah building the wall. He stayed focused on his purpose.

July 20: MOST OF OUR DECISIONS ARE DRIVEN BY EITHER LOVE OR FEAR.

Affirmation: I am compassionate. I care about myself and others. (Repeat 10x) “When he had gone indoors, the blind men came to him, and he asked them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” “Yes, Lord,” they replied.” (Matthew 9:27-31) Our compassion seems to be tied to belief in the Lord. Do you believe He is able to do this? Even more importantly, do you believe the Lord has compassion for YOU? ~~~~~~~ Ponder: Memorize Psalm 25:4-6. Make this your prayer today. This is a prayer for everyone to personalize and practice at any and every moment as you seek to live your best life. Pray this prayer at least 10 times today. “Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long. Remember Lord, your great mercy and love, for they are from days of old.  Psalm  25 :4-6 ~~~~~~~ Reading for Today Walk in Grace. Live in Love. by Bob Goff                ...

January 28: Keep Showing Up; You’re The Only You There Is

Affirmation: I am imperfect and I am enough. ~~~~~~~ Ponder and Personalize :  The book of Joshua was written after Moses died and Joshua is left to lead the Israelites into the promised land. God has freed them from slavery in Egypt.  “Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, …” What significance does the Book of Law have? Why was it important to meditate on it day and night? Talk to God about this directive and how it might impact you. Joshua 1:8-9 “ Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night , so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.” ~~~~~~~ Catching Whimsy: 365 Days of Possibility.  By Bob Goff                        Jan ...
