Be the Good

If you can't see it, then BE it!.. 

Here is a suggestion. 

Think about this and try it today and this week! 

While going about your normal day and doing your same routines, look around today using the eyes of your heart. 

Find someone doing some good and go out of your way to thank them. 

Do something good unexpectedly for another person today. 

You will make their day and your heart will thank you!.... 

Check your experience… 

"Helping others is the foundation stone" Big Book pg 98 

Lord open the eyes of our hearts today so that we can see and do good for others, AMEN. “

Therefore, whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone-especially to those in the family of faith.” Galatians 6:10 

Have a blessed day Y'all!

Bad Moment

Don’t turn a bad moment into a bad day….

Have you ever noticed that what you focus on influences how you feel and act?

For instance playing with children can make some older folks feel young and more alive.

How about the feeling of accomplishment after completing a workout at the gym?

What about the uncomfortable and unpleasant parts of our day that we all have?

Have you ever noticed what happens when we focus on that?

It tends to drag us into the negative mindset and bring us down.

Now maybe it’s different for you, but I have found that when I enter into the unpleasant moments of my day, ...

instead of focusing on the anticipation of the impending doom or negativity,..

I remind myself of all the good in my life and that this is just a moment in my day that will eventually pass.

I find that when I greet negative times with cheerfulness, the negativity has a hard time taking me hostage.

How’s that working out for you?..

“We were prepared to look at it from an entirely different angle.” Big Book pg 66

Lord, let us walk through the negative times knowing this is but a moment but You are in our heart forever and that we have blessings awaiting us, AMEN.  

“Do everything without complaining and arguing, so that no one can criticize you. Live clean, innocent lives as children of God, shining like bright lights in a world full of crooked and perverse people.” Philippians 2:14-15  

Have a blessed day y’all!

Seasons

Seasons...

It seems we have seasons for everything in our lives. 

We have clothes for the changing seasons. 

Heck, even Arizonans have a jacket in the closet somewhere! 

We have football, baseball, basketball, hockey, and other sports seasons. 

We even have seasons that we can put on our food to spice it up or change the flavor. 

What about our lives? 

It's common to hear that folks are “going through a season” when there is change or challenge in their lives. 

Change is inevitable for all of us. 

It’s part of being human. 

However, it’s how we deal with the change and the seasons in our lives that helps us grow spiritually. 

Maybe it’s different for you, but I have learned to embrace change over the years. 

I may still bristle when it comes unexpectedly, but I clear my mind and remind myself that I turned my will and life over the Lord when I got sober, and that frees me from pride and fear taking control of my thoughts and actions. 

What about you? 

Does change bring resistance and lock you in a battle with your self-centered feelings and pride preventing you from growing? 

Perhaps change ignites fear inside of you, shutting off the Holy Spirit and trapping you within your closed mindset. 

Or maybe you embrace change knowing there is a lesson to be learned and the outcome will make you a better person...

“Our whole attitude and outlook upon life will change.” Big Book pg. 84 

Lord, thank you for the seasons in our lives that help us to grow in spirit and understanding. Please give our hearts comfort and our minds relief in times of change, reminding us that You know what is best for us and will NOT give us anything we cannot handle, AMEN.
