How are you using your "Single" status?

For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need (Hebrews 4:15–16).
Have you considered Jesus' "single" status before? How does it offer you hope in your season of life today? Bide the time doing God's will to bring other's to the saving Grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ!
Have you ever thought about your talents and gifts? Are you a strategic thinker? A great listener? Can you motivate others to action with your words? Are you skilled at building things? I suggest making a list of the things and activities that interest you in which you excel. You can also ask yourself, “What’s the one thing that I do better than others?” This can also clue you in to your God-given purpose. Pray and Ask God to show you the things that move you and make a list. And remember, He wants you to use your skills and talents for His Purposes. This is true fulfillment!

More Patience, More Joy, More Peace

Something I have noticed, when I start my day in prayer and God's Word, reading scripture, I am in a more positive & cheerful mood. I am more intentional in choosing words that impart Life, Hope, and Ecouragment.
This morning I read: Ecclisiastes 10:12, The Words of a Wise Man's mouth are gracious, but the lips of a fool shall swallow him up.
Words are incredibly powerful! My daughter, who not so long ago, thought I was so not cool, is working for me in my business, and now actually listens to me! It's awesome seeing her eyes light up when she really understands and is open to what I'm trying to impart to her. Our children truly are a blessing!
He Who has Knowledge spares his words, And a man of Understanding is of a calm spirit. Proverbs 17:27
God's Word truly Renews & Refreshes Your Soul! As I read his word I pray for more Patience, Joy & Peace and God is Faithful to let us have the Fruit of the Spirit!

Success At Last...

I did it! I swam laps for an hour at the Genoveva Chavez Center in Santa Fe! Loved it! Doesn't feel like you're exercising when you're swimming. I prayed, spoke to God, asking Him to give me Strength, Energy, Wisdom, everything I need to fulfill my destiny in Him and Live my Life for His Purposes.
It seems like we're always soo busy, our calendars are booked, we're looking after our family, keeping up with shopping, schedules, responsibilities & commitments at work, church; it's go, go, go. We stress out, our hearts are heavy and long for Rest, Peace. And yet, if you read God's Word, He has promised us Rest and Peace!
As the Psalmist cried out to God: Hear my Prayer, O Lord, and let my cry come to You. Do not hide Your Face from me in the day of my trouble; Incline Your ear to me, in the day that I call, answer me quickly! For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned like a hearth. Psalms 102: 1-3
In Mathew 11:28, Come to Me, All You who Labor and are Heavy Laden, and I will give you Rest. Take my Yoke Upon You and Learn from Me, for I am Gentle and lowly in Heart, and You will Find Rest for Your Souls! For My Yoke is Easy and My Burden is Light!
I thank God for His Lovingkindness and Longsuffering that no matter what I am going thru He is with me and He will carry me thru when I feel like I don't have the strength.

Manana will come, I promise...

Okay, so I didn't work out today. Took my workout bag and forgot my shoes. Had a meeting with fellow Marketeer, (after got out of J-O-B),who has his own IT Biz. We're building Strategic Alliance, referring clients to one another.
Got back to Santa Fe after 7:30 pm. Ate a Caesar salad. Watched Dancing with the Estrellas with Grams. I put my work out bag in my car with athletic shoes so I am set to work out manana. I'll workout before I go to church, come heck or high water.
Read this scripture before getting ready for bed:
Consider the Lilies, how they grow, they neither toil nor spin and yet I say to you, even Solomon in all His Glory, was not arrayed like one of these. If God then so clothes the grass, which today is in the field and then tomorrow, is thrown into the oven, How much more will He clothes you, o ye of little faith. Luke 12:27-28
In the midst of our hurried lives, we just need to take the time to pray, (communicate) with Almighty God. He who has promised to never leave us nor forsake us. It is under His Loving Wing that we can rest and experience His Love, His Peace, that surpasses understanding...
