Verse of The Day

“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”- Romans 8:38-39

Although things come your way to distract you and draw you away from him, if you keep your eyes on God and love him all your heart then there is nothing that can take you away from him. Yes you may fail in your walk and come across some bumps but you just learn from them, get up, re adjust yourself, look forward and keep on going! I hope you enjoyed this post. Have a Uniquely awesome day. GOD BLESS.

VERSE OF THE DAY


Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.



Galatians 6:9
 
I know that at times you can feel weary and tired and sometimes in a bad mood and you dont feel like doing good. But the Scripture tells us "Let us not become weary...". Even though we get tired, lazy, or we are just not in the mood, that is when we must continue to push ourselves to do good with a cheerful heart. And in God's time we shall reap the harvest of our Good deeds. This may mean that something good will happen to us, we may receive something un expectantly, or we will see the rewards in Heaven! Which ever way it comes, I know I will be unworthy but it is because of GODS grace and mercy that I shall be more than grateful to receive it.  So don't ever lose heart to do good. Help those around you. Offer a helping hand. Helping doesnt always mean money is involved. It can be something as simple as holding the door for someone, helping someone push their car off the side of the road, help someone pick something up if the dropped it, it is the little things that count. And as the word says, "...for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up."
Have a Uniquely Awesome day. GOD BLESS.

VERSE OF THE DAY


Colossians 3:23 "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for Man."

I LOVE THIS SCRIPTURE!  To me, it is telling me that anything I do I need to do it to my full potential. I need to do it whole heartidly with joy and compassion. Do it for good and not for distruction. The Lord sees everything you do and he knows if you are doing it from your heart and with everything you have. And he is pleased. But man can see the same thing and still not be pleased. Man will always let you down. That is why we trust in the Lord and do things unto him. Not one thing we do suprises him because he knows all. So when I feel like I don't want to do something or I am getting too lazy, I just reflect back on this scripture and it gives me a new motivation to keep doing what I was doing and do it with everything in me! I hope you enjoyed this post and Apply this to your life and you will see that the outcome is rewarding! Have a Uniquely awesome day. GOD BLESS.

Light in the Darkness

As I sit here at work all alone in my office, I look outside and the gloominess that has taken over the skys has so quickly taken over me. I felt alone, cold, saddened. Memories of my past start to flash before me. People i have hurt I keep picturing in my mind and my heart feels their pain. My heart longs to Hold them and cry on their shoulders in regret and forgiveness. I feel my heart pound, my hands getting clamy, my throut getting tight and I can feel my pulse in my head.  I start to ask myself WHY! And a million questions start running through my mind. If ONLY.....I keep telling myself. I wonder of friendships that could have been. GREAT ones I can only Imagine. As my eyes swell with tears I take another glance outside at the gloominess that has taken over me. And to my suprise, for just a smidget of a second the gloominess turned to light. It was no longer dark outside because there was a hint of light! I wiped my eyes before a tear would fall and took another look and the light was gone. A smile came over me and I got up out of my seat went to the Window and looked up at the sky. And right then and there I knew! God is with me and I no longer need to sit in Darkness. Those who by sin were darkness, by grace become light in the Lord. Its only by Gods grace that we are forgiven and set free. Those friendships that are no longer, hurt, but are always in my prayers. And those friendships that could have been mine, may be needed more by someone else. So I thank God that he is the author of life and he directs my path. I will now smile in dark and laugh in the light. Tears will fall but thet will be tears of Joy and Laughter.

You are my lamp, O LORD; the LORD turns my darkness into light. (2 Samuel 22:29 )

Therefore I will praise you, O LORD, among the nations; I will sing praises to your name. (2 Samuel 22:50)  AMEN!

CAFFEINE!

So I am here at work with an excrutiating headache! And the type of headache I have is called a Caffeine headache!!!! Just Brutal! I dont ever wish this on anyone. What basicallyt happens is when you drink caffeine alot (and I mean like everyday like cups and cups of it) and then you try to stop drinking it completely, oh man thats when you get the caffeine headaches! It's like your body cannot function with out it. Its so used to having it be an every day part of your life that when you dont have it, Your body lets you know IT NEEDS IT! Sounds horrible I know but atleast its not drugs or something worse.
Well this got me thinking, How much longer will the headach last? Will it go away if I just drink a can of Pepsi? And then I started comparing this to my everyday life. What happens when we take God out of our lives? Do we get headaches? or worse? Chaos in our lives? Does our body tell us that we need Him? Will we be satisfyed with just a taste of Christ or will we need to constantly fill ourselves with more of him daily? Will all Chaos in our lives go away when we do?

Then this scripture came to me, "I am the vine; you are the branches," said Jesus. "If a man abides in Me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing." (John 15:5)


It all makes sence! Without Christ in our lives we are nothing. We are just as unfunctionable as someone without caffeine with a huge caffeine headache! We need to always have Christ in our lives daily and we will bear much fruit!
