“One does not ask for a blessing to get a blessing”

The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, And he addeth no sorrow with it.

Proverbs 10:22 KJV

Blessings are upon the head of the just: But violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.

Proverbs 10:6 KJV

https://bible.com/bible/1/pro.10.6.KJV

By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted: But it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.

Proverbs 11:11 KJV

I work hard to stand in my faith, to walk that straight line, and always showing who I am. I don’t get jokes, so I don’t joke around with others, and yet people will be people.

Some will take what they want by force or by trick. They believe they are right and all you can do is pray they don’t hurt you or someone else as they push their way through. 

Remember people are people no matter if by blood or they say they are your friend. Hold those who are real close, and anyone listen carefully so they won’t hurt you.

I got up with a plan and was ready to set it free, but life doesn’t always go as planned. If we start making a list of everything that goes wrong. Would that list become hurtful words or if we counteract every good thing that came from that list turn into a smile?  

{} If thou faint in the day of adversity, Thy strength is small.

Proverbs 24:10 KJV  https://bible.com {}

Some may even say it is a waste of time to let your feelings out either in written words or talking them out with someone else. Words are more than just words, they are feelings, they can be the truth, and if the truth hurts? 

We either stand strong and fight through them or we run and let them take over our lives. I choose to stand strong and continue to write out the good along with the bad. The bad will not win within my list.

List #1 List #2

1. Go out early ~ Didn’t charge my phone
2. Mind changing ~ Phone 18%, but still on
3. The Sun/Heat ~ No dancing, just walking
4. At least 30 minutes ~ Only 25 minutes

The question is: Which is the good list and the bad list? I may not have been able to get out as early as I liked or walked as long as I wanted, but I didn’t let my bad list hold me back from being a better me.

The time I spent outside walking I not only got in some steps, but some much needed vitamin D (that didn’t come from a bottle). In the end both of my lists were good. 

I was able to see a bird or two (one day I am going to get a better camera so the next time I come across something worth taking a picture I can). I actually stood watching them go about their business without a care in the world. 

My steps even took me a few blocks out of my way in a different direction then my normal walk. If the sun wasn’t so hot, I could have walked longer, then again I enjoyed every step, and it was a good start of my day….

There will always be someone 

to try and take your  ‘joy,’

 you NEED to know 

Who YOU ARE,

 and 

Where YOU STAND.

Be true to yourself 

and 

don’t follow 

the WRONG

leader…

I am Smiling as I think about my new book and just grateful for not giving up and Believing in a better tomorrow…

I think I should have said, “God is Good & not all people are good,” but there are a lot of good in people. All we can do is pray for those who aren’t as good as they should be. Meaning no lying, taking items that doesn’t belong to you, or cause someone else pain etc, etc, etc……

I cannot believe I am going back on my word when I said “I would Never Frog again,”and I couldn’t look at the crochet skirt I made for myself (which was too big)any longer and had to take it out.

Then again it didn’t come out like I was hoping it would. I was trying to figure out how I could improve it, but my mind kept on coming up black. So, this is what happened in the end…

I had thought I could just go around one side,but that didn’t work out. I decided to make a granny square blanket, but I am not choosing the colors. However the yarn comes from my skirt that is how the pattern will flow..

I was going to look for some more places to visit in California, but I rather watch an anime as I work on my pink & beige project…
