"We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they are good for us - they help us learn to be patient. And patience develops strength of character in us and helps us trust God more each time we use it until finally our hope and faith are strong and steady. Then, when that happens, we are able to hold our heads high no matter what happens and know that all is well, for we know how dearly God loves us, and we feel this warm love everywhere within us because God has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with His love." 
"Pleasant words are as a honeycomb, sweet to the mind and healing to the body."
~ Proverbs 16:24

The other day 
as looking 
over "this" & turning to "that" I came across a wee clip 
of a young man named Noah & I was truly truly moved by his singing! I am loving the bluesy, raspy style of his voice 
! What I have seen/heard thus far is him doing other peoples songs but he puts his own lil twist/flare to them which I think has compliment most rather then destroy . . . I haven't heard a "orginal" but think it will be interesting 
if he ever does . . . I just put up a few of his songs but there is more so when ya got a moment or two check out his videos 
. . . hope you enjoy:
Thank You, God, for giving me such wonderful gifts and seeing all the potential in me. I praise You for helping me experience your abundant life. Amen
Until next time . . .
"How good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!"

Mom of baby with no eyes deflects cruel taunts with love
God, thank You for creating me with a unique purpose that fits right in with Your people. I praise You for uniting us all in love. Amen.
Until next time . . .
"He remembered that they were only human, like a wind that blows and does not come back."
~ Psalm 78:39 NCV
Today I am just not feeling it 
. . . or maybe I am feeling it ? hhmmm, reckon it all depends on how one wants to look at it 
. . . I am far from perfect that is fer sure & to tell you the truth I am pleased to say I am a work in progress . . .today is the start of my "Walmart Weekend Warrior Work", generally when I do these shifts I don't like to go about "quiet" but today I really have no energy & there are times, let me tell you, there are times when it takes ALL my energy to just . . . be . . .
So today my objective is "quiet" . . . I shall smile as I always do - but perhaps not as brightly . . . I will talk 
when spoken to & speak out/up when needed 
. . . but for the most part I am seeking to be "quiet" 
. . . so much ridiculous 
drama takes place at where I work, so much . . . pettiness productively purges . . . from the higher ups to the smalls, it is everywhere . . . and I am exhausted . . . the same is of my neighborhood, the bus stop, to the local stores 
. . . so I am exhausted 
. . . I was thinking I am always & forever ( and shall always & forever be ) talking to God about the "this" the "that" . . . but today, today I think I want to be quiet & maybe, just maybe I will hear Him & I will apply His word . . .
maybe
God, thank You for showing me that my hunam viewpoint is limited. Help me to see all of my circumstances from your outlook - the eternal perspective. Amen.
Until next time . . .
