The Good News!

Hi everybody! Hope your day is starting out well. The weather out here is beautiful today!
I am sitting here, drinking my coffee, getting ready to go out and conquer the world. I can't do that without ALOT of coffee!
Anyway, this week, I have been praying a lot, for guidance. I have these periods in my life, as everyone does, that I just feel like I'm on the wrong path. The way to tell when you are experiencing this is, nothing you do or say seems right. Where you go even seems wrong.
All this means is, at some point, you made a wrong choice. Whether it was being exposed to someone who was negative, or not calling someone that yoiu felt like you needed to talk to.
Quite often, it's something so subtle, that you probably just missed it.
That is why we have to be completely aware, and in control, of our thoughts. Somewhere along the way, we let our attention go to off track. In this instance, I probably thought I could help someone that has no desire to be happy, or overcome the obstacles in their life.
All that does is open up the dam of negativity, which then floods your life.
I know 4 people, that I care aboout, are all suffering from the same thing, right now. They all accepted, Jesus Christ, as their Savior, and have since, turned their back on Him. They are blaming their past, their families, their addictions, and whatever else they can think of, instead of realizing, they are only hurting themselves.
The only way other people can hurt us, is if We give them the power to!
For so many years, I lived like that. One day, I realized that the people I felt had caused all of my problems, had moved on in this world, and were living their lives.
I had to pick myself up, putting the past where it belongs, and start LIVING, instead of just existing. And if I can do that, anybody can!
It may be hard at first. But it takes more energy to feel sorry for yourself, than it does to feel blessed. It's never too late to change.
So don't waste another minute of the life that God has given you. He is just waiting for you to stop hurting yourself.
My favorite thing to say about people, who have done something wrong to me or my family is,
" The Lords' vengeance, is far greater than mine. " Then I smile and walk away, because that's what He wants me to do.
So to the 4 of you that I am referring to, you need to know that, by doing nothing, you have let another person, have the satisfaction, of winning. And as long as you do nothing, they will continue to win.
Gods' blessing waits for you everyday. If you are reading this, then He gave you another day and another chance to LIVE!!!!
And with that, I am going to go now and do just that. Just for today, I choose to live my life to the fullest, and let go and let God, deal with my enemies. They will not beat me!
All of you are in my prayers!! will speak to you soon!
