WORTHY WORDS!

This past Sunday, I received worthy words..... from a grandson, no less.

WITHOUT COMPLAINT! 

A prepositional phrase that spoke volumes to me. Complaint, the object of the phrase, greatly needs the preposition "without" in my life......I need to modify dissatisfaction! 

In a concise manner, think remove! 

No bellyaches, cranky fusses, grumbles, gripes, grouching, moans or worries!

Words that led to conviction of fear but covered in love. 

FEAR NOT! The most used command in Scripture......with both a sense of belief and relief! God always has a plan. 

Think....God's got this! 

God's "words of grace" in a thin silence/low whisper came to Elijah (not in wind, earthquake or fire)

AMEN!

FRIDAY FOCUS WITH TRUST!

Worry is the problem!  (Philippians 4:6)

What's the two-fold answer?
1)    Go to God through His Word!

2)    PRAY!

TRUST---HAVE IT---THRUST IT!*

*ODK had a birthday thrust of joy as all the patrons of Haywood 209 Cafe sang "Happy Birthday" to him and the stage sent him off with a slice of coconut cake "on the house" to honor his 19th!

THURSDAY THERAPY!

Be anxious for nothing.....

There's an RX for that!

Praise the Lord--

Trust RX refills are free for life.

REWARDING RAMBLE IN THE WOODS

Rambling can be good when one is trying to refocus!

Not rambling in speech but in a quiet time. Today hubby did the directing to the place and then allowed me to traipse among the woods. Soothing came as flowers appeared and he helped me to change position in order to get close-up views.

A trillium evoked memories of my childhood wild flower garden and took my mind off unnecessary worries. 

Springtime with its abundance of flowers. White. 

Foamflower

Vibrant colors.

Hooked buttercups

Dwarf Crested Iris

Red Columbines were also in my childhood garden.

Hubby took the pix and when we returned home I could use his iphone which gave horticultural info and lengthened my on-going quiet time!

T.T.T.T. Revisited

3/25/11

T.T.T.T.---That acronym is part of the marginalia I had added to 3/22 entry of my Jesus Calling. Sarah Young’s entry for that day reminded me to ”be thankful!”….. ”practice trusting,” ”practice thanking.” 

My practicing skills seem to be a little rusty lately. I know that thankfulness to the One who is the “lifter up of my head” (Psalm 3:3) can lift me above my circumstances. Needed----a “paradigm shift” from planner to truster.

That day I chose to quit worrying about the “beating” of my heart and concentrate on the grateful shaping of my heart.

T.T.T.T. is my separated and simplified reminder.

Thankfully Trusting Thee Today

Those who know your name trust in you, for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you. (Psalm 9:10)
