Hosea 2: 15

And I will give her her vineyards from thence, and the valley of A – chor for a door of hope; and she shall sing there, as in the days of her youth and the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.

We are all called to a door of hope in our life, perhaps a wedding, a newborn baby, a new job, a new opportunity, and a new house.

When one door closes in your life, you can open a new one if you set your mind to making it happen. If you get an illness, you may have to change gears completely. You may find a new job that is much more rewarding in the long run than the old job you used to have. I love to write and visit people in nursing homes. Staying with people who have given us so much throughout the years is rewarding. I feel blessed to have the opportunity to put a smile on someone’s face and make their day a little more enjoyable.

If you have to relocate for a job opportunity, you will have some anxiety about making new friends and connections. Your old friends will always stay in touch with you, and you will also make many new friends along life’s many journeys.

Many new opportunities will come your way in life; don’t be afraid to embrace them. Change is one constant thing in our lives, and we know it might be better for us in the long run. The older we get, the less we like changes in our life. By changing our lives, we learn more than we ever thought possible.

Traveling let you embrace the World and discover that people all over the World want the same things in life. We all want hope, joy, love, and peace in our lives every day that we are on earth.

Steadfast Love

Psalms 52: 8

But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God forever and ever.

James 1: 2 – 4

My brethren count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations ;

Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

As you travel down the highway of life, there will be many detours, but you must stay on the right path to get where you want to be. Your relationship with God must be Steadfast, tried, and authentic with much faith and grace. Strive every day of your life to have a more robust and better relationship with God. You will notice that your relationships with other people will also be much more substantial. A strong, loving, caring bond with God can never be broken.

Be Steadfast with your goals in life, and you will notice that you truly can accomplish most, if not all, of your dreams. If you start a job, finish it, and do it professionally, anyone and everyone will appreciate it. A half-completed job shows no respect or honor to the person you work for. Be Steadfast and always strive to let the best in you shine through for all the World to see. God always looks for the best in people, so let him see the best in you by being kind, caring, compassionate, and helping people in need. The Lord came to serve and not to be served. Follow his example in your own life, and you will go far.

Steadfast Love knows no boundaries or limitations; you love the sick, lonely, and homeless in loving these people; you also love what God stands for, as he has a Steadfast love for everyone here on earth. Be sure to spread God’s good works every day of your life. May you have Steadfast Love, grace, and faith in your life today and always.

Forgiveness

Luke 17 : 3-4

Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespasses against thee; rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.

And if he trespasses against thee seven times in one day, and seven times in a day, turn again to thee. Saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive him.

When you do not forgive someone for what they said or did to you, it hurts you much more than it will ever hurt them. They do not stay awake at night thinking about what they said to you or how they hurt you. You are the one up all night long, letting your anger fester inside of you and letting it rob you of valuable time in your life.

Do not hold a grudge against people; nothing will be gained, but much will be lost. Do not go to bed angry; go to bed with kindness and forgiveness.

It is easy to forgive someone if they have genuinely repented from their sins and much more complicated if they have not. Please do not put yourself on the same level as the person that has trespassed against you, for you will be no better off than they are. Forgive your sinner so he can find the grace of God back in his heart again.

By not forgiving people for their sins, you destroy your health and focus all your energy and time on how that person wronged and hurt you. Always remember we are all sinners, and no one is perfect.

By forgiving people, you are doing them an excellent service. They will probably not make the same mistake again with another person. Their connection to God should be much more robust. Your connection to God should be stronger also because you have forgiven one of God’s children.

Time

Ecclesiastes 1: 4

One generation passeth away and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth forever.

1 Chronicles 29: 15

For we are strangers before thee and sojourners, as were our fathers: our days on earth are as a shadow, and there is none abiding.

Job 9: 26

They are passed away like the swift ships: the eagle that hasteth prey.

Time is a valuable gift. Do not flutter away your days on earth. Make your days on earth creative and beautiful because today is a gift from God, and do not waste the day away on unnecessary things. Ensure you learn something new daily, as this will enrich your days.

Spend time with friends and relatives because the day will come when they will no longer be on earth. Family time enriches your children’s life and lets them know you love them. Meet up with friends and family often, go to lunch, dinner, or coffee, and spend quality time together. When you give people the gift of your time together, they know they are appreciated and loved.

Travel while you can and see the earth’s majestic beauty, and you will be amazed at all the sights and things you can learn by traveling. Go to the countries of your heritage and learn more about your roots. Look at the mountains, oceans, and buildings, and learn more about the people and their heritage in each country you travel to.

The older you get, the more you know how precious time is here. Do not put off for tomorrow what you know you can achieve today, as tomorrow may not come to you. Time is like two ships that pass in the night. Spend your time helping people that need your love and support. Spend quality time with family and friends while you can. The day will come too soon, and you will lose family members and friends. You will never regret spending quality time with your loved ones. May your time in life be enjoyable healthy, and long.

Christmas

Isaiah 9: 6 – 7

For unto us, a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Of the increase of his government and peace, there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and his kingdom, to order it and to establish it with judgment and justice from henceforth, even forever. The Zeal of the Lord of host will perform this.

Matthew 2: 1 – 2

Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the King, behold there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

I was saying where is he that is born King of the Jews? We have seen his star in the east and are coming to worship him.

Christmas is about celebrating the birth of our heavenly Father, Christ the Lord. Christmas is not about Christmas presents. Christmas is a time that we rejoice in the delivery of Christ. I love spending Christmas with family and friends and feeling valued as Christ was when he was born in a manger. Before we eat on Christmas day, we say the Lord’s prayer and bless the food and all the hands that went into the preparation of the meal, and we are thankful for all who are gathered at the table this year. We remember our loved ones who have passed on and are grateful for the time that the Lord gave us the wonderful gift of having them bless our lives.

Christmas represents peace, joy, love, and hope. Christ the Lord has given us peace, joy, love, and hope. Spending time with loved ones at Christmas gives you a feeling of great joy. Seeing the Church lite up on Christmas eve surrounds you with hope for the future. Peace and harmony are abundant with family, friends, and Church on Christmas day. There is no love equal to the love our Lord Jesus has for everyone here on earth.

Remember, Christmas is about celebrating the birth of our Lord, The Prince of Peace. Spend time with loved ones on Christmas day, always remembering that Christmas is all about the birth of Christ. Have a blessed and Merry Christmas.

The Ball is in Your Court How You Live Your Life is Your Destiny

No Comments on The Ball is in Your Court How You Live Your Life is Your Destiny

Isaiah 25: 1

Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.

1 Peter 2: 8

And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: they were also appointed.

It is just as easy to say a kind word to someone other than a word that will harm or hurt them. Remember, the spoken word is like a sped arrow shot into the night. You can never retrieve it. Give a lot of thought to what you will say before you utter the wrong words from your mouth.

Don’t do God’s good work because tomorrow is not a given. It is a gift from God. Live your life according to the Gospel because God watches your every move, word, mannerism, and thoughts. Shower people with God’s love and let them always know that God loves them unconditionally.

Do good always and refrain from evil thoughts and actions in your life. Evil only bestows more evil. Good will always prevail over evil in the end. The wrong person will be called in front of God on judgment day, and God will decide his Destiny.

Are you satisfied with the way you have lived your life so far? If not, change it. You are in charge of your Destiny on Earth, and you only have one life to live, so make it a good one that you and God can both be proud of.

Do not live your life in a stalemate. Be slow to anger and be quick to move on with your life in a positive direction. Forgive people that have hurt you because if you don’t, it will hurt you much more than it will them in the long run. Live a life that will make your parents, friends, and everyone proud to have known you.

Friendship

John 15: 13 – 15

Greater love hath no man than this: a man lay down his life for his friends.

Ye are my friends; if ye do whatsoever, I command you.

Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends: for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

Proverbs 17: 17

A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.

Job 6: 14

To him, that is afflicted pity should be showed from his friend, but he forsaketh the fear of the Almighty.

Friends are always there for you through the good and bad times. You share your unique experiences, and you can usu, ally complete each other’s sentences before they are done talking. You understand each other fully and completely. A friend will not forsake you when you are sick. A friend will always stand up for you. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

Friends are a gift from God. Friends are more precious than anything else in the entire world. Without friends, you would be incomplete, empty, and lonely. Friends help you see the sunshine in a rainstorm. Friends always bring out the best in you and compliment you on your successes in life. Your friends are your best cheerleaders, and they always cheer you on to get the most you can out of your life. A true friend is loyal and devoted to their friend. Whatever comes their way, they will help each other through it.

True friends are as hard to find as a nugget of gold at the end of a rainbow, but, my dear friend, you are my nugget of gold that I will never let go of. A friend can cheer you up quickly, making you feel like you are walking in a new dimension. A true friend will come into your life unexpectedly.

Our soldiers have fought with pride, honor, and gallantry and have stood loyal to their friends in the most horrific times. Many soldiers have laid down their own lives to save their friend’s life. As it says in John 15: 13 There is no greater love than a man who lays down his own life for his friends.

Oh, my dear friend, you’re always there with your presence,r dreams,s and happy gestures, and just being yourself. A true friend is not judgmental, is not boastful, a true friend shows no malice, a true friend is not jealous in any way. Oh, my dear friend, you always add a gentle touch as if I am walking on clouds that clear the sadness and fill me with happiness when we are together now and always. God Bless you, my faithful friend.

True Wealth

Ecclesiastes 5: 12 – 13

The sleep of a laboring man is sweet, whether he eats little or much: but the abundance of the rich will not suffer him to sleep.

There is a sore evil that I have seen under the sun. Namely, riches kept for the owners thereof to their hurt.

A man’s true Wealth is what he has left behind when he dies. A wealthy man will have helped as many people as possible in his lifetime. He should be a giving and caring, and compassionate man. A rich man will have many friends and family members that he respects and cares for, and they care for him, also.

A wealthy man will have an excellent relationship with God and do his absolute best to follow The Ten Commandments every day of his life. He will remember the Golden Rule – Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You. He will place the Sabbath Day and live in a Christian manner every day of the week. He will be a good steward of the land, be good to God’s creation and give freely.

True Wealth is not about money. Friends and Family are the True Wealth of any man. Without friends or Family, you are the poorest man in the World. To be content and pleased, you need love, joy, hope, peace, and caring people. Money will not buy you happiness. Sometimes the wealthy are the unhappiest people.

A truly wealthy man will have people at his funeral who will say he sure helped many people in his lifetime. He was a wonderfully caring and compassionate person. This is what a genuinely wealthy man will have left behind when he dies.

Strive to be a truly wealthy man in your lifetime.

My Former Doctor Told me He Was Overwhelmed

6 Comments on My Former Doctor Told Me He Was Overwhelmed

2 Timothy 4: 5

But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.

I don’t know about you, but I do not want to go to an overwhelmed doctor. I want my Doctor to be on top of all of my health issues and listen to all of my health concerns and problems and address my health issues quickly and efficiently. If your Doctor falls short of a correct diagnosis for you, it may be a matter of life or death.

I went to the ER several times with health problems, and he thought all of my concerns were just in my head. My trip to the ER did not help me out whatsoever.

Suppose you have an illness that your Doctor seems overwhelmed with; go to as many doctors as it takes to get the correct diagnosis and treatment for your condition. Always remember not to let your Doctor play with your life expectancy. Keep going to Doctors until you feel satisfied that the Doctor you picked can understand and treat your illness correctly. Pick a doctor who has read up on your condition and understands your need in every manner possible for optimal health.

I am fortunate to have found a doctor who is very knowledgeable, caring, and concerned about treating and caring for me correctly. He even calls me in the evening to talk about my health and how I am coming along with my health concerns. My Doctor is proactive and very knowledgeable in his field of medicine.

My local Doctor has read up on my illness and understands what treatment is necessary for optimal health.

Please do not keep a doctor who wants to get unto his next patient and hardly gives you the time of day when you try to talk to him about your health problems. You have one life to live, so have a doctor who genuinely cares for you, and your health or life span may be shortened considerably. I wish all of you the best of health possible.

Perception

2 Timothy 2: 14

Of these things, put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit but to the subverting of the hearers.

If your perception is off, you feel very uncomfortable. I just got a new pair of glasses, and my perception is off as far as judging the distance between steps. My optometrist said it would take a while to get familiar with my perception while wearing my new glasses.

We all get our perception out of kilter now and then. We do not think about a situation before we react to it. Never speak or act out on a problem until you have thought it over for some time. Sometimes we only hear what we want, which throws off the entire perception of the whole conversation.

Perception can be in the eye of the beholder; where one person sees a shack, the other person can see a mansion. Perception is based on age, life experiences, values, inner core, and relationship with God.

If you do not have an excellent relationship with God, your perception of everyone and everything worth pursuing will ultimately be off. God quickly puts your inner core or being back into its proper perspective so you can lead a good and productive life.

Our perception of people can be way off. We do not know what people have been through in their lives. We all want the same thing to be accepted by others for what we are and how we are. As people, we come from all races, nationalities, religions, sizes, backgrounds, and values.

We must have the proper perception of God to understand and relate to all the different people we will meet in our lifetime. God, please let us be more understanding with people every day of our lives.
