This is the day the Lord has made

"This is the day the Lord has made, let's rejoice and be glad in it!" Many of us have heard that scripture before, right? It comes from Psalm 118:24. And it's one of my favorite scriptures. Like certain words, lyrics, and names, there are some scriptures I just love repeating -- certain scriptures that get me in a good mood. Scriptures that remind me that everything is going to be alright no matter what. That's what Psalm 118:24 does. It's just a happy scripture. 

So yes, this day, tomorrow and even the days after that and the days after that...are all the days the Lord has made and guess what? They are going to be awesome days. I refuse to think anything less than them being wonderfully fulfilling days, simply because the Lord has made them. And He wants us to enjoy every last one of them simply, because they exist. Yes it's all so much easier said than done. That, I know and I have to at least have the outlook I have that God has so much more in store for us who love Him. So why not rejoice and be glad in that? 

Hear what Sha Sha has to say about rejoicing in the Lord. Sha Sha is my avatar, so her face is based on my face and the voice you hear is actually me speaking through her.

God blesses whomever he wants to bless, whenever he wants to bless them

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post. When I was going through a dark time -- when I had nothing -- there was a certain person who helped me sometimes. She helped me whenever she basically felt like it, but she did help, and for that I'm appreciative. But, something interesting happened after I started growing out of my despair. Something interesting started happening when I no longer needed her for anything. And something interesting happened even though I remained kind and grateful towards. The interesting thing that happened was that she started hating on me. She started treating me differently. At first I was really bothered by it, because I thought she and her husband were nice people I wanted in my life. I liked that they had a sense of compassion and were interested in helping people who were down and low. That really appealed to me, because I was raised that way; my mother was raised that way; her mother was raised that way, and it goes back to as fa

Protecting My Peace - Day 98 - Momentum and Movement, That’s What's Up

Click to listen to current podcast episode. “Never Giving Up” are power-words — strong affirmations that give us momentum and movement. That’s what’s up. We can do so much more in our lives when we have momentum and movement. It’s about standing, literally and not sitting or laying around feeling sorry for ourselves. I used to do that once upon a time and that sorrowful thinking is for the birds. We don’t have to be down. We can get up and get going even if we start small. In fact, I love starting small, because it helps set a firm foundation of habits and routines. Momentum and movement will help us get and maintain a position of strength to do what God says we can do.

Eagles fly above the storm

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with Blog Post. Are you an eagle? Do you know, eagles fly above the storm and they wait for the winds to carry them to greater heights?  That's right, as the storm is raging below, they are soaring above it all. They don't escape the storm, mind you. They simply use the storm to lift themselves to higher magnitudes. It's a though they know the storm is temporary; that they will indeed rise above it; and that they are riding the storm. I find all of that fascinating, because we can take the model of the eagle and do the same. Why can't we? We can imitate the eagles intelligence, push-through, and perseverance to weather any storm -- the storms of life that will come. If we will just know that God will never give us more than we can handle, then we will come out victorious.  As you going through anything today? Are you worried about anything in particular? Just know, you can rise above it all. Nothing is too big for G
