Good Morning Blessed Ones,
Break-Through is Possible!
In the ever unfolding saga that is your life, one temptation after another seems to continually plant itself smack down in the middle of your path—if for no other reason than to provide you with an opportunity to measure how far you’ve come AGAINST how far you have yet to go. In fact a quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) states that “We gain the strength of the temptation we resist.” Some tend to make this statement true—and are better for it; however, far too many seem to get trapped within the very temptation they struggle to resist—and grow weaker because of it. CONSIDER this quote by Thomas Fuller (1654-1734), “There is a critical Minute for all Things.” AND…given that we know not which minute is more critical than the other, take care to place a crown of importance on each of them. After all—minutes turn into hours ~ hours turn into days. AND…The quality of each day is extended, shortened, defined, and grounded in those “critical Minutes [assigned] for all Things.” Be Tempted ~Challenged ~ Strengthened ~ Encouraged AND Empowered by your Choices!
Remember, Life is What You Make It: One Choice, One Moment, One Day, One Word, One Prayer, At A Time! Seek God’s counsel in all things! Stay Focused AND Be prepared for Him to move SUDDENLY! “Faith perceives Truth sooner than Experience can.” (Kahlil Gibran: A Spiritual Treasury, p94). You are blessed to be a blessing! Stay Productive! “Activity is contagious!” (Emerson). Daily, ask the Lord to “Teach [you] to make the most of [your] time so that [you] grow in wisdom.” (Psalm 90:12). Never forget that You and Family matter. Like Steph says, “We’re not perfect, but we’re real, and all love each other very much!” Be safe and always thankful! God is doing a work in you, which will be revealed in due season! “Be strong and do not give up, for your work will be rewarded.” (2 Chronicles 15:7). I believe the Spirit of God resides within each of us! What do you believe in…Against the odds…in spite of and not because of? TTYS!
