What I'm listening to now.......

This album "Passion:Awakening" has some really amazing songs and I have enjoyed them so much. My favorite right now is "Awakening"
by Chris Tomlin. We all need the Lord to awake our souls and cause us to desire His will in our lives. The only way our souls will be awakened is with the power of God. I encourage all of you to listen and then pray that God will awaken your soul. enjoy.......

Commitment

I am going to be making some changes in my life.....little things. But sometimes those little changes are challenging. I have committed this year to start on that book that I have always wanted to write, and I have started, I am praying that the Lord will guide me in this endeavor. So God can guide me I am studying everyday and spending time in His word.
I really try to have a quiet time at home in my chair, but that does not always happen, so being my techno self, I have the Bible and some tools on my i-Phone and take advantage of that at some point during the day. The other things I am working on are learning some Spanish and memorizing the book of James. Not much. Go with me and I get through 2012.....what are you committed to this year?

How blessed are you?

It really hasn't been long since I was on this site, I has a really good blog ( or so I thought) and when I started to post it disappeared!  Now when you ask the Lord to take control of a project you can expect Him to do things that you don't expect.  Anyway, here I am back and I am trusting that the Lord will take control and have me to put on this blog what He wants on the blog.

I am blessed beyond belief.  You probably are too if you just stop and think about it.  I heard a famous minister state on TV that we are the ones that determine how blessed we will be.....yippee....I determine to be REALLY blessed......oh wait there's a catch......by how obedient we are to Jesus.  Well, its not really a catch, but I am like a small child and even tho I know the right things to do, its not what I want to do.  Can you relate?
When you stop to think about your blessings remember not to take things for granted.  Things I use/see/have everyday some people never even would imagine having in their life.  I have a wonderful husband, some people cannot even imagine what that is like.  I have great kids, some people don't even know the whereabouts of their kids.

I do have a job, its stressful sometimes,  but its a good job.  Here it is Monday and I have been home all weekend and have my Pollyanna attitude back.  Hopefully, it will last until noon at least today.  :)
The Lord really does want to bless us and as my precious daughter-in-law reminded me this weekend, "we should do all things as unto the Lord."  I need to tatoo that somewhere on my body or better yet hang a sign in front of my eyes to remind my constantly.

Have a good day....or two...or three....and keep smiling...Jesus loves you and made you special for a purpose that only you can fulfill.   And if you let Jesus, He will work it in you if you let Him.
