In Him…

Today I have a lot of washing, cleaning, and organizing to accomplish. To be honest I am not looking forward to it.

The first thing I did was to put on my worship music! As I center myself on Jesus…everything else becomes so much easier.

I am raising my voice in worship…drawing closer to what truly matters. Anything I am doing is surrounded by my giving glory to God!!

The cleaning, washing, and everything else is just a background to my positioning myself in Him. ❤️

Whatever we are doing, may we remember to let it flow from our connection to our precious Lord.

For in him we live and move and have our being…
‭‭Acts‬ ‭17‬:‭28‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Where is Your Focus?

It’s important what we focus on each day! Do we focus on everything that we think is “wrong” in our life? Or do we focus on what is good? One choice brings anxiety, fear and helplessness. And one brings joy, peace, and strength. Everyday is a new day! What do you choose to focus on today?

“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

I AM THANKFUL!

I am thankful!! I had a confrontation with my bathroom wall at 3:00am Tuesday morning. Immediately after, the swelling was as big as a tennis ball! Kinda scary… but the swelling went down quickly with the application of ice several times.

I am thankful! No bones broken around my eye…no damage to my eye itself…and my nose was not hit! (Those of you that know my “nose history” understand the relief).

I am thankful! The swelling is almost gone completely this morning. The Lord is using this to squeeze out more of my preoccupation with my appearance. I had a decision to make – sit at home and wait out the healing of the bruising – which I have heard could take many weeks. OR, continue with my daily commitments and get my mind off of myself and back on where it belongs – on the Lord and His kingdom purposes. ❤️

I am thankful! Lord, continue to mold and shape me into the vessel that You can use in love and power in Your kingdom. Continue to call me up higher…and not be overwhelmed with earthly things.

Thank You, Lord!!
