| Stressful Days Recently I was reading a blog which caught my attention and caused me to reassess my attitude I had for the things I have to complete each day. I haven't been doing well, stressing out, and complaining a lot. Read this blog entitled Mid-Day Monday Musings and ask yourself what your perspective is. What she described here is how I feel sometimes. I get so caught up in the mundane tasks of the day or my classes that I begin to feel unmotivated. I must remember that I'm doing everything for the glory of God. I want to be able to say as well: "Oh how good it is to work for God during the daytime, and at night to lie own under His smiles!". So how is your attitude doing? Are you approaching your day with enthusiasm?

| Sometimes I think God puts certain people in our lives to test or develop our character. Boy was today challenging! I start to question myself every now and then and wonder if I made the right decision to go into ministry. Ministry is all about people. But then again it was God's call, not mine. If God calls then He will give the grace to do it. I can't give up now. (Sorry guys, just need to encourage myself a little.) On the other hand, today I started my way towards getting my certification to teach English as a second language. It's something I thought about a long time ago. It's been on my heart. I talked about it a lot but just never made any steps towards it. It will be a great asset and witnessing tool as well. I'm really excited and know there are many ways this can be used for God's glory in the future. Something a friend and I were talking about recently... guarding your heart. Everything in life flows out of your heart. You will respond to circumstances and situations and people according to what has been put into your heart. This is the reason why you need to watch the doors of your heart. Make sure you close the doors to the things of the world and to the things that are contrary to His Word. Don't even allow it a crack open or for things to seep in. Open your heart to Him. Allow Him to come in and fill you up. | | |
| The ThroneroomStanding before His throne in fear and trembling
Will He hold out His golden sceptor?
Everything at a standstill
What will happen next?
Yes it is His blood that covers me
So that I may come boldly before His throne
Full of grace and mercy
All my sins washed away
As I lift up my voice and sing in worship to Him
His love and presence envelopes me. "So it was, when the king saw Queen Esther standing in the court, that she found favor in his sight, and the king held out to Esther the golden scepter that was in his hand. Then Esther went near and touched the top of the scepter." Esther 5:2 Have you ever drawn away from His presence for fear of what He might think of you? His love far exceeds anything you have ever done! He is waiting for you. Draw near to Him and He will draw near to you. He longs to lavish out His love upon you. Whatever you are going through, know that He is always there with you. As you go into His throneroom today be filled with His peace, flooded with His love, and strengthened in your inner man. "Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you." Jeremiah 31:3 | | |
| So I'm here at the Coffee Banc having a grasshopper... absolute chocolatey mint goodness! It's nice to relax because I feel like I've been going non-stop for two weeks.
One thing I have to testify is that the favor of God rests on me. Lately I've been seeing it so much in my life. I got a raise from my second job where I least expected it. On top of that, I'm starting to see the fruit of my prayers. I've been praying for this one particular family and I can see God working. It's encouraging to see the results of your prayers. Now I'm excited and I can't wait to see what God has in store next! "For whoever finds me finds life,
And obtains favor from the LORD"
Proverbs 8:35 "And having come in, the angel said to her,
“Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you;
blessed are you among women!”
Luke 1:28 | | |
