If I could crochet every day, I would be happy. I guess it’s a good thing I do. It’s also true that I may not be able to crochet long every day, but every stitch counts.

Which One is the Right One?
I know it is not good to wish for something to happen, because wishes don’t come true? I started a printify account, but couldnât set up my etsy account.
I then learned about printful and how to set up, but I didnât care for it. I couldnât design my mug as I did on printify, but I couldnât set up my etsy account.
I was thinking about canva? Well, there is something to think about. I am going to get to work and see what I can come up with.
I know something big is going to happen, because I am not giving up. I may not be where I want to be, but I am not where I was. I am moving forwardâŚ.

My Road
The only thing I was thinking about as I walked through the doorway to my so-so job was âvengeance or forgivenessâ? I know that was the wrong thing to be thinking and then this thought popped in my head –
Exodus 8:8 NIV [8] Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, âPray to the Lord to take the frogs away from me and my people, and I will let your people go to offer sacrifices to the Lord.â
https://bible.com/bible/111/exo.8.8.NIV
Exodus 8:12-13 NIV [12] After Moses and Aaron left Pharaoh, Moses cried out to the Lord about the frogs he had brought on Pharaoh. [13] And the Lord did what Moses asked. The frogs died in the houses, in the courtyards and in the fields.
https://bible.com/bible/111/exo.8.12-13.NIV
That wasnât even half of what happened to the Pharaoh, because he just wouldnât let go. God was patience and with each act Pharaohâs world was slowly coming to an end until –
Exodus 12:31-32 NIV [31] During the night Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, âUp! Leave my people, you and the Israelites! Go, worship the Lord as you have requested. [32] Take your flocks and herds, as you have said, and go. And also bless me.â
https://bible.com/bible/111/exo.12.31-32.NIV
I knew I had to clear my mind. I turned my music up, (wish i can recall what was being played on my Mary-Mary playlist on Pandora) but sadly I do not.
I thought I had that thought out of my head, but just for a second it came back. A co-worker said, âGoodMorning,â and asked how I was. I told her what I was thinking. Then once I said those words out loud and she asked, âwhat does the Bible say about that?â
I smiled, because I knew I was in the wrong and I am woman enough to admit it and repent for those thoughts. I also know, well I am thinking it says âvengeance is mine the Lord had saidâ. I donât know where that is in the bible, but I will in a few minutes.
Nahum 1:2 NIV [2] The Lord is a jealous and avenging God; the Lord takes vengeance and is filled with wrath. The Lord takes vengeance on his foes and vents his wrath against his enemies.
https://bible.com/bible/111/nam.1.2.NIV
Nahum 1:2 AMPC [2] The Lord is a jealous God and avenging; the Lord avenges and He is full of wrath. The Lord takes vengeance on His adversaries and reserves wrath for His enemies. [Exod. 20:5.]
https://bible.com/bible/8/nam.1.2.AMPC
I was able to breathe more clearly and I had meaning behind my smile. I know who I am and who I am standing with and there isnât anyone who can bring me down. I will win in the end.
People should learn from Pharaoh and not take the long road, because they will always lose in the end. My road may not always be smooth, but I will always get back up.

No Fear….
Starting something new is scary, but –
Psalms 27:1 AMP [1] The Lord is my light and my salvationâ Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the refuge and fortress of my lifeâ Whom shall I dread?
https://bible.com/bible/1588/psa.27.1.AMP
I have to remind myself of who I am today and not the closed minded person I was years ago. I am moving forward and NOT looking back. The way I see it. I have already learned from my mistakes and I have let them go.
Isaiah 43:18 NIV [18] âForget the former things; do not dwell on the past.
https://bible.com/bible/111/isa.43.18.NIV
I was about to have an UGH moment, because my computer is about to die. Then I remembered my tea kettle had just stopped. I will get my lavender tea as I let this computer charge before I start a new chapter in my life.
Ezekiel 18:31 KJV [31] Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
https://bible.com/bible/1/ezk.18.31.KJV

Not Just Water
First day of drinking hot lemon water with cayenne pepper. I went a little light on the cayenne pepper, because I thought it was going to be a little too spicy. I like lemon, so I added more of that.
I know hot water is good on an empty tummy, but I was wondering if something spicy would be better.

One is spicy (the hot water with the cayenne pepper) helps you go to the bathroom. The other hot water drink is great for dehydration.
Water does wonders to help you stay healthy.
Isaiah 43:19 NIV
[19] See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.
https://bible.com/bible/111/isa.43.19.NIV
Time for a short workout and after my coffee a walk around the neighborhood. Small steps will still get you to your goal.
