Power

Exodus 14:14

¹⁴ The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.

Power in Prayer?

Do you recall a time when God answered your prayers?

I do.

Do you recall a time when God didn't answer your prayers?

I do.

God freed the Israelis when the were slaves. But they forgot what he did for them and started to complain on the way to the Promise Land (we know where he was leading them, but they didn't.... ). Nevertheless, they forgot they were FREE. They needed to trust God. Trust if he freed them, that meant he loved them... trust Him that he had a plan for them... for GOOD, not evil.

Well, They murmured in the desert in spite the fact they saw the miracles. Parting of the Red sea? Wow. Dropping Manna from heaven for food? Leading them during the day by a cloud and at night by the stars.

I think I want to remember what God has done for me, not what he hasn't done.

I think I want to live in appreciation for what he has PLANNED for me, even when I don't understand it.

I think I want to live in his protection! Watching for the signs he has to GUIDE ME through the wilderness!

I think, I think.... I think to much? No, I think not enough about his Glory and Mercy in my life.

God, forgive me today for Murmuring in the desert and help me remember YOU DO HAVE A PLAN FOR ME!

Salute! To YOUR health and Wellness

me

Proverbs 23:7

For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he

My mind feeds my heart

My heart feeds my mind

My mind and heart feed my body.

I am not who I say I am, but Who I am

I am, is my choice

I am my mind and heart

What I feed my mind and heart is my choice

I choose to feed my mind and heart TRUTH

When I choose Truth

Then I will be who I want to be

Me

Looking forward?

Genesis 19:26

But Lot's wife looked back, and she became a pillar of salt.

Today I will meditate upon this thought.

I must trust the Lord, living in the moment and looking forward. I will not be robbed of my Joy today by looking back! I can not change the past nor should I.

I should learn from the past. Grow from it. As if it were seeds in my soul.

As I look towards the future I must also LIVE IN THE MOMENT. For this moment is a gift. A Present from God. Living in the "Present". My Trust and Hope is in HIM!

MY PRAYER TODAY:

God, Today....

may I live as a strong determined Child of the living God.

Living in the moment facing the future and learning from my past.

AMEN!

SALUTE! To your health and Wellness

PS

"God lives in the Praises of his People" Invite him into your moment.

To thine own self be true

Oh, come on now...... I always say "oh, I don't eat that much!"

But, yikes! I added up the few measly things I ate today and a whopping 1900 calories.

Ridiculous!

"This above all: to thine own self be true" Shakespeare

Tomorrow will be a day of more thoughtful choices. I will keep in mind that food is a "fuel" for my bodies health.

My well being is my spiritual walk! Only HE can truly satisfy!

Salute!

Plans?

It came to me this morning (early morning).

An angel told Mary she was to conceive the Son of God. Wow!

Then thank goodness Joseph was also told the same thing.

But, I think if I was given this revelation and experience I'd be very confused to see that the "son of God" was to be born in a manger. Although the nativity scene show wise men bearing gifts and the Shepard's coming to confirm this event of the Son of God being born. I believe they didn't show up for possibly years.

Never the less.... I wonder how many times Mary questioned what she was told and had experienced. Raising her child just like any other child she gave birth to after him.

Well, I just thought.

How we just don't understand events, circumstances.... in our life. They seem to make NO sense at all. Some times it seems as if God has turned a deaf ear to our cries.

Yet, in faith we MUST BELIEVE the word of God that says - he knows our hearts

Romans 8:28

And we know that all things work together

for good to them that love God,

to them who are the called according to his purpose.

By faith we walk - not by sight ... even in our daily quest for health and wellness.

Salute! To your health and Wellness
