Change It Up!

If you want to see the RESULTS you desire in ANY area of your life, you need to start DOING something DIFFERENT than what you already are doing!

~If the house is always messy, give a child a quarter to pick up one room!
~If you can't lose weight, make a plan and eat different foods!
Or do a different kind of exercise!
~If your spouse isn't paying attention to you, find a way to MAKE him NOTICE!
~If you need more money, SAVE a little, MAKE a little!
~If you are always running late, layout the things you need several DAYS in advance!

You know the old saying~
IF THERE'S A WILL, THERE'S A WAY!

"I can do ALL THINGS, through Christ who strengthens me!"
Look it up!
~And have a rejoiceful and glad day!

PS. This is the advice I'm giving myself!

One Big Miracle!


I am just figuring it out!

Life is one big miracle!

The human body, for example, is completely amazing!

All the little parts that work together to keep us walking, talking, breathing, for Pete's Sake!

Walking is a miracle!

Talking is a miracle!

Breathing is A MIRACLE!

The way the earth moves,

The way the wind blows,

The way every living thing grows!

IT'S ALL A MIRACLE!

All of our emotions~

loving,

crying,

feeling,

hurting,

laughing,

sharing!

thinking!

Working things out, working together, running, jumping, sitting, cooking, reading, singing, listening, playing.

EVERYTHING IS A MIRACLE!

I am constantly reminded of how life is so precious!

Every little thing is a miracle!

Conception of a baby~

The birth of a baby~

How a baby grows~

And learns, and feels, and moves!

Being loved is a miracle!

To love another!

Having a family is a miracle!

Having friends!

~Faith, joy, peace, forgiveness!

And even in this imperfect world full of God's miracles,

the greatest of all is that

every single person on earth has a chance at perfection!

The miracle of forgiveness, redemption and salvation!

God is being so very gentle in reminding me that we will only be perfect in Heaven!

But perfect we will be!

He sent His Son out of unconditional love to promise us perfection one day!

I can live with imperfection.

It won't last forever.

But I will try my best to live and love while enjoying this

ONE BIG MIRACLE

OF LIFE!
