Like The Birds

Getting to the things that we want in life can seem like a pipedream when we ignore the elementary truths like Faith and Trust... As we often get to one thing and quickly begin to worry about the next...
Oftentimes, when we get to what's next, we quickly go off and worry about something else...
Today I am reminded of this scripture... in Matthew 6, where Jesus tells us not to worry about what we will eat, where we will sleep, or what we will even wear... because "life" is more than "things"...
And He reminds us to look at the everyday things like the birds...and how God takes care of them... and to "see" how they don't even plant or harvest, or store food... and God "always" ensures that they are taken care of and eat...
And He does the same (and even MORE) for you and me..

So the next time that you find yourself worrying about "things", remember these birds...  
and reaffirm your trust and faith in God and not in meaningless things.

Never Ending Relationships

... One person asked me if she should " stay friends " with someone after  the relationship was over ... and I couldn't help but wonder how she could split up the two... as my experiences of relationships have taught me how, although the circumstances in our relationships change, the reality of us having a relationship with another person  does not .. . For we may no longer be within the same frame of that picture together, but the "content" of it is what always lingers and remain. . I can personally attest to my relationships living and continuing to live in some of the most intimate parts of my thoughts, memories, heart and sometimes other relationships... long after I've parted ways with people... So it becomes very important to me to internally and eternally stay friends ... because I know relationships never really ends...

Running To Win

Image
In all of the things that we hope for and pursue, I 1st Cor 9:25 reminds me to be sure that I am running my race to win.  For athletes go into strict training and go through a lot of trouble for a crown... ribbon... or a silver cup that will not last ... But us "born again" folks do it for a heavenly reward that never  disappears.. Let us keep on loving and serving one another in the places we are called to be - in our homes, jobs and everything else outside of that... and be "purposeful" in every step while doing it as we head towards the finish line. Run To Win. ~ Chana

Sharing Some Thoughts

'Whenever I'm unsure what I'm called to do, I simply get started with what I think it is and expect God to guide me as I go....' ‘Sometimes I get the feeling that I take myself "way too serious"... but then I remember,  it's just a feeling ...' ‘In the spirit of those (before my time) who truly write, I too understand why I write... It's because (for me) there is  no other choice... ‘For some time, we spend parts of our lives being afraid... of success, love, being right and even wrong... and this is where it gets us... He re ... But what if we decided to spend the rest of it NOT afraid... to see what that gets us?  I bet it will be something different...’ 'I spend quite the time writing about love because I’ve found the place where it lives... What a treasure...’ ‘In listening and learning in silence, I can see how we are forever teaching and learning from each other - whether we mean to or no...
