Walk Your Own Path

As I was walking this morning I saw someone that I walked with before. I started to run to catch up her.  But I didn't. I realized that she was going one way and my path was going another way. We both were out walking for our health, but we were walking different ways. 

Too often we may give up the path we are to take to walk another's path  Their path looks so much more inviting, easier, more thrilling. But their path is designed for them. Your path is designed for you. And there are places on your path that it will be inviting, easier, more thrilling. it is your journey. Walk in it. enough for now.

Be Anchored

Whoa. The boat has gotten a little rocky.  The waves are trying to pick up. Yet, I hear "Peace. Be Still." And I realize that what I feel is already under control. Yes, there are times when you will feel the winds blowing at hurricane speed and the waves appear to be overtaking- but no. They won't. Rest in the safety, rest in the peace, that God has you.

Shift your focus from what you see to what you know to what you hear in Jesus. You can do that. You really can. I promise you can. enough for now.

Stand, Listen

There is so much going on that and we can get lost in the momentum of the moment. How are you hanging on? Are you okay with hanging on? If not, then let go. Let go and breathe. Take slow deep breaths. Now listen. . .

There is so much more for you. There is a place where you can hear, you can breathe. You can stop. You don't have to hang on, but you can stand. When you let go you begin to realize that a lot of the crazy that you were holding on to was never in your best interest anyway. While you are standing you can start to learn your values.  Yeah, you need to snow your values. And it all begins with letting go, and listening. Listen beyond the crazy. Listen with clarity. enough for now.

It All Belongs

“The earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof; the world and they that dwell therein” (Ps. 24:1 KJV). When you consider that one verse alone, that one fact, you can rest that God is watching and has you in mind. That you are not alone. See the power of that statement. When you recognize that it all belongs, that you belong; there is a place of peace and joy for you. 

How magnificent is that statement! You can seek God and that peace that comes. We all need to recognize that we need peace in the turmoil of the times. We need rest for our troubled minds, hearts. Rest that God does have this, in spite of what we see. It all belongs. enough for now.

You Are Not Listening

Why is it that we listen to everything except God? Why do we trust untrustworthy people instead of trusting God? There is a plan for your life. But you must seek God in order to hear. You must watch what God is doing in your life. Don't be distracted by what is going on in the lives of others. Get quiet. Shhh. Listen. . . enough for now.

Live It

The joy of this new year. The joy of a new start. The hope, the promise. Wow. That is how we usually start the year. But why not begin each day anew with that same expectancy? This is your day- live it to the utmost! enough for now.

Smile Laugh

It's day two of the new year.  Don't give up. Keep that same 'can do' spirit. Greet each new day as a day of joyous adventure. Greet each challenge as an adventure. Try something different today. Smile at at least one person. Laugh at something funny. I guess that means that you must look for someone that needs a smile ; and find the funny, the joy in someone. enough for now.

New Year

New Year. New Hope. New Promise. Walk in the promise, the hope of the new year. Don't miss what God is doing. enough for now.
