Why Worry?

Why worry?.. 

Schedules conflict, appointments run long, and our responsibilities never seem to end! 

Now maybe it’s different for you but when I find myself, as I often do, mentally leaving the present situation because my mind wants me to start focusing on where it thinks I should be according to the “plan”, I must remind myself that this is where I need to be and now is where my focus needs to be. 

Wringing my hands, pacing, checking my watch, calendar, or phone, won’t move the time any faster. 

I have learned that the root cause of all of this for me is my fear-based mind’s desire to worry. 

The solution I must force myself at times to grab and hold onto is that God has me right here right now for His own reasons and I need to be awake and present in this moment and not lost in thoughts and worry over my day not matching up with my calendar. 

Worry won’t change a thing, except to make your present situation more uncomfortable… 

Check your experience… 

“Nothing, absolutely nothing happens in God's world by mistake.” Big Book pg. 417 

Lord, let us trade in our worries for your grace and guidance, AMEN. 

“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4: 6-7 

Have a blessed day Y’all!

Faith Over Fear

Faith or fear?..

It's the age-old problem that we face every day.

It comes seemingly from out of nowhere, but if not confronted immediately, our day can get hijacked with our thoughts taken hostage and our minds blinded by it. 

What is it? 

FEAR... 

OK, so maybe you are one of those invincible folks already so full of faith that fear has no way to get a grip inside of you. 

I wish I could say that, but I am human and without putting myself in check with faith each time a fear tries to crop up, I am a victim. 

Try this the next time you find yourself stepping on the gas out of fear of missing the light, or when your mind fills with words you feel you must immediately say, instead of listening to the conversation completely before it's your turn to speak...

I bet Y'all didn't consider those as a fear did you?..

RELAX and let your faith guide your mind!..

Check your experience...

"We think fear ought to be classed with stealing. It seems to cause more trouble." Big Book pg. 68

 Lord, quiet the fears in our minds with the Faith in our hearts, AMEN. 

 "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind." 2 Timothy 1:7 

Have a blessed day Y'all! !

Word Choice

Choose your words...

Words can either heal, help, or hurt, depending on how we choose to use them. 

One of the things we can't recall, rewind, or take back are the words that come flying from our mouths fueled by fear, anger, or other emotions of the moment. 

I have learned painfully over the years that it's best for me to not let the emotions of the moment inside of me fuel my words. 

I have found that when, instead of letting my emotions of the moment lead the charge of my “verbal vomit”,..

I quietly give the words to God and let the Holy Spirit guide my emotions and quiet my will, so that I can use better words for the situation...

Check your experience...

"Patience, tolerance, understanding and love are the watchwords." Big Book pg. 118 

Lord let the words we choose be fueled with love, kindness, and encouragement, AMEN. 

"The right word spoken at the right time is as beautiful as gold apples in a silver bowl." Proverbs 25:11 

Have a blessed day Y’all!
