Thankful, Grateful, Blessed

Sometimes I wonder how many of us really realize how blessed we are to be so loved by God. We really are blessed. And what else comes with that love is the love we can have for each other. In other words, not to exist with hate, which doesn't come from God. When we are thankful, grateful, and blessed we should be in a loving posture. In fact how can all those things exist in a person who does not love? Quite impossible, wouldn't you say?

When I think over my life I know there were many situations when God gave me favor, grace, and mercy -- many times -- and I didn't really deserve any of it. Now, that's love. So why would I not operate in that same love? Why not thank God for the many things He does for us like giving us life and enabling us to wake up to the magnificent world He created for us? No, it's not a perfect world, far from it, but it has much magnificence, because the Lord made it. So I will continue to look at the splendor of it all as I'm reminded yet again to be thankful and grateful, because I am truly blessed. As I sit here and write this, I am confident of that very thing. Sometimes I simply thank Him out loud as I walk around the house, in my car, or anywhere else. My life is not always easy, but I thank God for being a part of it.

It's a blessing to be able to do what He called us to do. It doesn't matter that we aren't able to do everything and it doesn't matter how small we think it is. It's just awesome to be called and chosen to do whatever it is we're going to do in His timing. This blog is a part of that and I'm going to continue to blog no matter how many people read it. Thus, it's about being appreciative of all God is doing for us. It's about the love God has for us. I hope everyone gets to know that for themselves. Check out 1 John 4, it speaks to God's love and our love for each other. 

Hear what Sha Sha has to say about being thankful, grateful and blessed by God. Sha Sha is my avatar, so her face is based on my face and the voice you hear is actually me speaking through her.

Protecting My Peace - Day 96 - Disciplining Ourselves for Next Level Greatness

Click to listen to today's podcast episode. When it comes to next level greatness, we have to know that applies to us, not just everyone else. Do you know what God has for you? Do you? He has GREATNESS for you. Yes, YOU -- all of us. It's about doing what you can do and only you can do. You are the only one with your DNA -- none of us. is the same Yet, even when we're feeling down, discouraged, and out, those emotions are only temporary. None of us has it all together. Sometimes I procrastinate and put things off when I know I should be doing better. Yet, I am not as diligent and disciplined as I can be sometimes. Like when it comes to working out, I delay it, because I don't like it anymore. And although I love reading the bible, I haven't been reading it as often as I should lately. Yes, I, Sharon, the Faith Coach, do not do the things I'm supposed to do when I'm supposed to do them. And that my dear friends should not come as a shock to no one. It certa...

Protecting My Peace - Day 95 - We Have to Stop Giving Away Our Power

Click to listen to today's podcast episode. Are you giving away your power? Are you letting people take control over our lives? If so, it’s time to stop operating like that. If we’re letting anyone influence us to the point that it’s causing us emotional pain or taking our peace, we have to move away from such people. It doesn’t matter if it’s in a personal or professional environment. Stay positive and productive in the process though, because dealing with challenges are part of the life process. Nevertheless, we can “fight” for our right for peace and respect. We just fight smart and continue to know who we are, especially who we are in Christ Jesus.
