Lord prepare me for this day. Let me shine the light of your
son in every situation that I might face or encounter. There is nothing that
you and me together can’t handle. You are the light of my life and I love you
very much. Take me and mold me into the person you want me to be. There is so
many things that you want your children to do. I am thankful for your goodness
and mercy. Let me have those things that are good for me.
This is a blog where I will be sharing my thoughts on a daily basis. Thank you for reading this blog and please give me your input.

Reflectin on the pastg
As we reflect on our past and the things we went through as a child and a teenager. Personally I had a rough childhood. I wish i could go back and redo everything I went through. As a child I didn't really have any friends and I really struggled in school. I was bullied and it was not easy. I am 49 now and I think it is still affecting me some today. I want to be free and i don't want to live like this.
I had good parents. They did drink a lot and I think caused many problems in my life and my family. I think sometimes my self esteem has been affected. I have a hard time relating to people sometimes. I am much better then I use to be. I do not want to walk in the mental torment no more. I need to examine my heart and make sure that I have totally forgiven those who have done me wrong. I want to walk in the freedom of the Lord Jesus Christ and I do not want to harbor not forgiving, because I know this will stop me from receiving from God.
I will continue this more later.

What happens when life seems so overwhelming?
I am not sure where to begin with this post. What happens when life seems so overwhelming? Sometimes life is not fair. We all face trials and circumstances that sometimes might seem overwhelming. There is hope though today.
To protect my heart from discouragement, I often ask God to remind me of times when He has worked in ways I couldn’t have imagined, in my life and the lives of others. Recently He reminded me of Joseph’s story (Genesis 37-50). It reads like a series of very unfortunate events!
Imagine being beaten and thrown into a pit, sold as a slave and then relocated to a foreign country where you are falsely accused of a crime you didn’t commit and banished to die in prison. And to make matters worse, what if your siblings had initiated this evil against you?

God gives us more than we can handle, because we are never meant to handle it all on our own. The better question is does God give us more than HE can handle? And the answer to that is absolutely not!
Our hope is meant to be found in him and what he is able to accomplish. If our hope is based on our circumstances and chance, we are to be most pitied. Because quite frankly, life does not always go the way we planned. And it is not always perfect. In fact, sometimes it is downright abysmal.

Although I enjoyed my visit, to say I’m beat would be an understatement. I’ve had a lot going on these last three weeks and I am ready. to. go. home! As free spirited as I can be, after too long I start craving my bed, my food, my surroundings, and my routine. If I go too long without those things I can get a little “off” and overwhelmed.
Lucky for me, as soon as this plane lands, I’m going to go right into what I call my “mini reset.” When life gets crazy and I just need to get my mental, physical, and spiritual “groove” back, I call “time out!” on everything and spend a few days getting myself recalibrated.
The following are steps you can do to “reset” at anytime you are feeling overwhelmed. These steps aren’t hard and you can do as often as you need to. Also, you can do any of these steps on their own, but I find that if you do each one at a time, in order, you’ll feel the greatest impact. Here’s the process I like to call my “mini-reset on life”:

Why are people hard to deal with all the time
I am wondering why people are hard to deal with all the time.Today was OK. I sometimes still feel like a outsider at work. There are so many different personalities here. People are hard to figure out sometimes. People are stuck in there own little world sometimes. It seems like that we sometimes have to go the extra mile with these type of people. They are so quick to find fault with others, but can not see there own shortcomings. It really does get old having to put up with the same stuff everyday from them.
The main think is that I do not need to act like them. They really children in adult bodies. Sometimes i just want to tell them off. However, I know this is something that God would not want me to do. I need to be the better person and reach out to them in love and not react in angry. We are programmed to automatically respond in anger. This is not OK and this is not acceptable. We need to be more forgiving and loving.
Anytime we are in a situation that doesn't seem fair, we need to ask ourselves what would Jesus do. There is no other way. No matter what we do, some people will never be satisfied. We cannot meet there standards.We need to try to meet the standards of God.

He's as close as the mention of his name
Today you may ask God to help you. God may say to you I am
helping you. Has this ever come across your mind and heart? Sometimes and we
think and feel that God is so far away. However, he's as close as the mention of
his name. There has been a lot of great songs and messages that ministers and
pastors have taught on this message. We sometimes focus more on the problem and
we do the answer. All of our energy is put into negative thinking. Our thinking
affects their behavior and also it affects our hearts. The Bible says that is a
man think of them as heart so is he.

On this Sunday, June 1, 2014 I challenge you to get into the word of God that God speak to you. Give God, his proper respect and you'll see what he'll do for you because you're his child. If there's any wrong, that's in your heart that you have toward somebody I would encourage you today to let go. Unforgiveness and hardness of heart will stop you from receiving God's best for you and your family. We have the protection and the favor of God today. Proclaim God's promises take God's word because the Bible is a contract between you and God. Both parties have an obligation to fulfill their and the contract
