"Death and life are in the power of the tongue" (Prov. 18:21). As we come out of Resurrection Day at the end of March, let's focus on breathing life into ourselves and those around us with positive affirmations! Speaking encouraging scriptures and declarations are a great way to have positive impact on our spiritual, mental, and even physical health! Let's post a positive scripture or encouraging declaration each day here!

Hey everyone! Just an updated, we are still waiting on the electrician to arrive, so the website of course is still up ;). If/when he makes it, guess that means the site will be down from late afternoon into the evening instead. Appreciate your patience and prayers! (L)

I've been very lost for the last few months. . .medical problems both physical and mental, spiritual rut because I can't seem to accept that He loves me no matter what, also because my past failures have been brought up by various people and the pain is so strong still.

Prayer Devotional for the Day
Dear heavenly Father, thank you for showing us how to live our lives in our businesses. Lord, may we be examples of integrity and honesty in all that we do. If we are a boss, help us to be the best boss possible, showing our employees and customers the nature of the Lord in all of our affairs. If we are working for someone, let our work habits be exemplary as a witness to Your grace in our lives. Let us be considerate of our workmates and may they see Jesus in us in all that we do. Lord, return our nation to godly business practices so that we can be proud of our work as Americans and find satisfaction in the job that we do. Most of all, let us remember that ultimately we are working for You and may all that we do be pleasing in Your sight. I ask in Jesus' name. Amen.

What Gives God Pleasure?
I talked to a gentleman the other day who worked in sales. When the boss of one of his clients called, at first he thought something must be wrong. But the boss was so impressed with this man's work that he offered him the position to run their whole sales department. It was a huge promotion. The boss said, "If you'll take the job, I'll give you a percentage of ownership in the company." The man said, "Joel, I never dreamed I'd be this blessed." He went from working at a company to owning part of a company.
Sometimes religion can make you feel like it's wrong to be blessed and have resources, but David says, "God takes pleasure in the prosperity of His servant" (Psalm 35:27). It brings a smile to God's face to make things happen that amaze you, to increase you in ways that you've never imagined. As a parent, when you do something special for your children, when you bless them with something they weren't expecting, you know how much joy that brings you. It's the same way with our heavenly Father. It gives Him pleasure to see you blessed. You may not see how it can happen, but that's not your job. Your job is to believe. Your job is to say, "Father, thank You that You're a more-than-enough God. Thank You that You take pleasure in prospering me. Thank You that You're opening doors that I can't open, showing me favor that I don't deserve."
The Scripture says, "God will supply all of our needs according to His riches" (Philippians 4:19). It doesn't say according to your talent or your education, or if your boss likes you, or if the economy is good, or if you have the right friends. It's not according to what you have; it's according to what He has. The good news is, God owns it all.
You were created to live an abundant life, but when you've struggled for a long time, it's easy to develop a scarcity mentality, thinking, "I'll never be able to afford a nice house, to bless my family, or to start my own business." As long as you think not enough, you'll never have more than enough. Get rid of that scarcity mentality and start having an abundant mentality. God has ways to increase you that you've never thought of. If you'll take the limits off of Him, God is going to bless you beyond your normal income, beyond your salary, beyond what anyone in your family has seen.

WOW! I really saw how the Lord is definitely in our lives & sees all yesterday! Not proud to admit this, but, I've been frustrated with someone lately and decided instead of saying something to her in a private message, I was going to put it out there for anyone to see (on a social media site). I even told my granddaughter that I was going to do it to embarrass her. I IMMEDIATELY felt the Holy Spirit telling me NO DO NOT DO IT! But I decided to do it anyway. Well, as I was typing my snotty remark, it immediately started doing all kinds of weird stuff, and I tried several times to correct it. But NO! No matter what I tried, that snotty message would not work! I knew it was wrong, and I knew it was God telling me not to do it...and I truly believe that He stepped in to prevent me from doing it!! It was a bad thing to tell my 18 year old granddaughter I was going to; and in the end, I told her how I wasn't able to no matter what I'd tried. And I hope it was a true testimony how God is aware of our actions & THE MOTIVE BEHIND THEM!! I've had similar things happen in the past, so I asked the Lord to forgive my motive & my disobedience. I also thanked Him for not letting me post it...

Hello guys! I regret I missed te last few Saturdays. This is to catch up and cover this Saturday!! I have been sorts busy this last few days. I was working on fine turning my new resume to help with my obtain a job that fits me. I altered my thinking and won’t just take the first offer and get something that won’t fit me just for the money. My knee has been hurting for the past year or 6 months. Seems like forever but that just is because Im hurting and it won’t go away! I don’t have it scheduled but saw my surgeon today. We all decide that an arthroscopic surgery would be the best thing right now. Not much else has happened so, so signing of for now. God bless to all!
Love, hugs and kisses ~~~

It isn't that being a healthy weight isn't important, but like anything, if it isn't done in balance, it can become very unhealthy. It always makes me sad to see a lot of the child actors who grow up with eating disorders because weight loss apparently became so much of a priority that it took over their life. We serve a God who wants many beautiful things for us!

What Love!!! This gives us the power to rise from self pity, and walk free from the guilt and shame of our past or failures. " He who knew no sin, became sin for us" Hallelujah- no longer are we in bondage to sin- but can walk in the newness of life, through the power of Gods Grace. "Thank you, Jesus"
