Whattest Dwelleth in the Heavens?*

Whattest Dwelleth in the Heavens?*

*What's up?

It has been almost a month since I have written to this blog. I started another blog that focuses on emotions. Since my last post I have grown a lot but if you asked me to tell you how I've grown I couldn't put my finger on it. God is changing me that's for sure. This may sound a bit weird but I'm becoming more intimate with God. The more I read God's words, the more I feel God direct me in life the more I realize I grow deeper in love with Him. This scares me to some extent much how when you go really fast in a relationship it all hits you at once and you feel like running. It's all so overwhelming. After all the God of the universe is loving me like nothing I've experienced before. It is so amazing to feel God. From time to time I can feel God hugging me when I am distressed and a time or two I've even slow danced with Him. I know this sounds crazy. Believe me it sounds crazy to me and I'm almost hesitant to write it but it is truth in how I've felt
God. I'm probably not the first Christian to feel this nor the last but I do pray that sometime in your walk in Christ you will feel this to. God is awesomazing!

All in a days work

I hope to live like this everyday. It is a a challenge I can meet
with God's guidance:

An angel says, "Never borrow from the future. If you worry about what
may happen tomorrow and it doesn't happen, you have worried in vain.
Even if it does happen, you have to worry twice."

1. Pray.

2. Go to bed on time.

3. Get up on time so you can start the day unrushed.

4. Say No to projects that won't fit into your time schedule, or that
will compromise your mental health.

5. Delegate tasks to capable others.

6. Simplify and unclutter your life.

7. Less is more. (Although one is often not enough, two are often too
many.

8. Allow extra time to do things and to get places.

9. Pace youself. Spread out big changes and difficult projects over
time; don't lump the hard things all together.

10. Take one day at a time.

11. Separate *worries* from *concerns*. If a situation is a concern,
find out what God would have you do and *let go of the anxiety. If you
can't do anything about a situation, forget it.*

12. Live within your budget; don't use credit cards for ordinary
purchases.

13. Have backups; an extra car key in your wallet, an extra house key
buried in the garden, extra stamps, ect.

14. K.M.S. (Keep Mouth Shut). This single piece of advice can prevent
an enormous amount of trouble.

15. Do something for the Kid in You everyday.

16. Carry a Bible with you to read while waiting in line.

17. Get enough rest.

18. Eat right.

19. Get organized so everything has it's place.

20. Listen to a tape while driving that can help you improve your
quality of life.

21. Write down thoughts and inspirations.

22. Every day, find time to be alone.

23. Having problems? Talk to God on the spot. Try to nip small
problems in the bud. Don't wait untill it's time to got to bed to try
and pray.

24. Make friends with godly people.

25. Keep a folder of favorite scriptures on hand.

26. Remember that the shortest bridge between despair and hope is
often a good "Thank you Jesus."

27. Laugh.

28. Laugh some more!

29. Take your work seriously, but not yourself at all.

30. Develop a forgiving attitude (most people are doing the best they
can).

31. Be kind to unkind people (they probably need it most).

32. Sit on your ego.

33. Talk less; listen more.

34. Slow down.

35. Remind yourself that you are not the general manager of the
universe.

36. Every night before bed, think of one thing you're grateful for
that you've never been grateful for before. GOD HAS A WAY OF TURNING
THINGS AROUND FOR YOU. "If God is for us, who can be against
us?" (Romans 8:31)
