Not Giving Up..

When you give your word, even though it was an impossible task to do, and the second you realized you might not be able to do it. You start doubting yourself and trying to come up with a way to get out of it, but is that who you are?

John 17:17 NIV  – Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth.

I don’t know if I am able to crochet 19 scarves in 7 days, but I will never know until I try. I will do my best to keep my word, because that is the person I want to be. Someone who others can trust to keep her word.

Back to my project. I have a few minutes before I have to get ready to go to service.

You Don’t Know Me…

My job (no my young supervisor) got me upset I had to stop what I was about to keep repeating, “I really hate this place,” but then I felt back to one of my favorite songs from years ago “Yes Jesus Loves me -”

I was able to calm myself down. I then told myself to just breathe. I was thinking about getting a picture with those words, but Google gave me a song (wasn’t helpful). Then I thought why not put those words in my Bible app and get some real encouragement.

Daniel 10:17 NIV

[17] How can I, your servant, talk with you, my lord? My strength is gone and I can hardly breathe.”

https://bible.com/bible/111/dan.10.17.NIV

Then I asked: I will get through this

Philippians 4:13 NIV [13] I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

https://bible.com/bible/111/php.4.13.NIV

Numbers 16:45 NIV [45] “Get away from this assembly so I can put an end to them at once.” And they fell facedown.

https://bible.com/bible/111/num.16.45.NIV

Isaiah 43:2 NIV [2] When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.

https://bible.com/bible/111/isa.43.2.NIV

I can spend hours on this app and Never get bored, but I need to take a few moments to close my eyes and put today out of my mind. I am blessed to know I am above what others see, because through Him I can do and be anything…..

Waiting IV a Package…

I spent all morning trying not to worry about my amazon package, checking the delivery time every ten to fifteen minutes, and when I missed my last check in. I was happy when it showed that it was delivered. My smile turned into a frown when I opened my front door. No package.

Okay, just breathe was my first thought as I went back into the house, to get a jacket, and started blessing an unknown person out as I walked towards the mailbox.

I saw a box, no my name wasn’t on that package, but when I opened my mailbox. I smiled when I saw my package and apologized for thinking the worst of my neighbors. (Sad, to say I have had a package or two.

I don’t think I am the only one who gets a little stressed over getting a package? I have one more to go, then I can relax.

Going to Smile Anyway…

I decided it didn’t matter how I was feeling, when asked I will always say, “I am good,” because I know words are powerful and I am blessed.

Matthew 12:37 For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.” NIV (New International Version Bible)

As I go over today invents, I am smiling, because I know what I have to do – to hold onto this Smile….

Will Keep on Trying..

Trying and trying again is getting old, but I am way too stubborn to give up. I kept on seeing things to do in Canva, so I thought I would try something new, and making “thank you cards” didn’t seem too hard.

I thought of 15 ways to say, “thank you,” but I wished I hadn’t wasted my time, because I couldn’t do the next part.

The steps were simple enough:

  1. Create a free account on canva, select a free design, and then add your message. Save your creation on pdf
  2. Create a free printify account and upload your design.

This didn’t work for me, no matter the times I tried, and I didn’t bother to create a free Etsy account. Okay, this didn’t work, but I am not going to stop until I find something that will work. 

I am BEYOND TIRED OF WORKING A FULL TIME JOB for a company that doesn’t know who I AM!!!!!
