Making God a part of your everyday life

Bizarrely Blessed

from JO’s sermon tonight:

God wants to help you, not just in the big things;  God wants to help you cooking dinner, driving in the traffic.  He wants to help you with your school work, help you be more productive at the office.   but God will only be involved in as much of your life as you allow Him to.  alot of  people have God in a Sunday morning box; that’s when they come to church, pray, think about God.  during the week, they don’t really include God in their life.  they love God, reverence Him, but they think, “there’s nothing spiritual about going to the grocery store, cooking dinner, meeting with a client.”  because they keep God in this box, they’re missing the blessings and favor that God wants to give them.

Proverbs 3:6 (TLB)

In everything you do, put God first, and He will direct you and crown your efforts…

Strangers on a Plane

BeautyBeyondBones

There are really two types of people when it comes to airplanes: there are the talkers, and then those who would rather get a root canal than socialize with the person seated next to them.

Admittedly, I am the latter. Earbuds in, sunglasses on – I am a fortress. I am simultaneously praying for a) the plane not to go down, and b) my seat mate to not try to drum up small talk. Priorities, right?

But I love flying, I really do. Riding in an airplane is always a bit of an adventure. You never know who you’ll be sitting by, and for a couple hours, you’re completely out of control, and unplugged.

I was flying back to Ohio today from New York. And there are always a lot of emotions, seeing the intimidating city skyline of Manhattan slowly morph into the lush and fertile Ohio River valley…

Needy People

by Cecelia Lester The thought recently came to me that we are all needy people. Some of us are not aware of the needs we have. Our primary need is that of salvation. “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come” (2 …

The Prodigal Cat

Why Feminism Insults Real Women Article by Rebekah Merkle The feminist movement has accomplished much in our country. Apart from the abortion carnage, I suspect the most unfortunate accomplishment is that it has destroyed the idea of achieving excellence as a woman. That may seem counterintuitive. After all, aren’t feminists fighting so that we women can …

Is It Supposed To Be Fair?

Preacher01704's Weblog

By Rev Paul N. Papas II
October 4, 2016

I hear a lot of talk lately about how many things are not fair. Who said life was fair?

Whose standard would be used in order for something to be judged fair? The mere fact that a judgment must be made insures a standard must be used to measure against. A judgment of competing ideas or goal requires that a determination be made as to which idea or portion of an idea is better than another. When a judgment is made it also means one idea or part of an idea was discriminated against. Judgments such as this have been made by each of us for many years, such as what we wear and how we wear it. The clothes we chose not to wear could complain it is not fair that they were not chosen and that they were discriminated…

Going piano.

cancer killing recipe

I was rushing all my life.
But now the pain in my joints is forcing me to slow down.
And I like it.
Not a pain but slowing down. 🙂

Going slow I’m avoiding tripping, falling down and breaking my old aching bones.
And I have time to think where I’m going, why I’m going there and what I will do when I get there. 🙂

Sure, I can hurry up if there is emergency.
Than I will forget the pain and I will do whatever have to be done under the circumstances.

This old Italian Proverb explains why going slow is better:

Chi va piano
Va sano
Va lontano

Means: He who go slowly
Goes healthy
And goes far

So slow down if you want to go sano and go lontano. 🙂

And someone Anonymous said:
Slow down happiness is trying to catch you.

Thank you for visiting.
❤
