QOTD- F.E.A.R. is False Evidence Appearing Real

We've all heard this before. Probably numerous times. I realized this week that I've been holding on to an unrealistic fear of a man in my life. I am one of the many that is guilty of saying I have faith and also worrying. The fact of the matter is that they CANNOT coexist. More importantly, as I've seen a million and one times, we tend to ATTRACT the things we fear the most. My car accident was a prime example. I would fantasize about being in a car accident. I was always referring to my vehicle as "that damn car". So pretty much I attracted that accident. I've made a conscious decision though to live faithfully and without fear. Because I am worthy and God ALWAYS takes care of me. The things we fear are not real!

QOTD-"Where you are in life, is a DIRECT result of your OWN efforts"

I'm sure this has been said by some famous person, at some other point in time with probably different wording...however, the fact still remains. It is barely a new day, only 1:12 am, but I felt the need to share. I am guilty of always wanting instant gratification. I get the whole reaping what sow, but haven't fully grasped the whole concept of, "in a different season". I read somewhere yesterday, if you plant corn today and go back tomorrow, you won't have anything, but in it's season the seed is multiplied. I suppose it also requiress being more "faithful" than "fearful". As my pastor would say "Check my resume, didn't I bring you through the last time?!?!" My/I=God. And I have learned that God will not ALLOW you to move forward unless you are obedient. It takes EFFORT. Don't find yourself being angry, envious or bitter because of someone else's greener grass. Learn how to nurture and be satisfied with what you have. Because the things God has for you are only for you. Stop the blame game. If you haven't accepted responsibility for your life, start today. God is patient, He's been waiting on you.

QOTD-"The end is just a new beginning"

Today I got upset in my group counseling session because a woman was talking about how lost she felt after losing her mom because she depended on her so much. Then someone said to me "The end is just a new beginning. Don't get so caught up in the end that you miss the positive things that begin to happen." Funny, last year my pastor preached the same topic in a sermon. Later the same day while out shopping I found the attached picture...Funny how God will get messages to u thru other people.
