Straighten Up And Fly Right...

 

Northern Lights, Living From Glory To Glory Blog

Suffering, Sorrow, Storms...

What is something all these things have in our lives?

These are the very things that God will use in our lives;

To produce Faith and Endurance!

Wimpy, Watered Down, Living situations,

Will produce weak and unstable hearts and minds.

When we get everything we want without any struggles,

You will never build up any strength!

There has been a barrage of mental illness;

In a world that has never been told to straighten up

And to fly right, 

We condone weirdness, and bizarreness as this culture has been

The god of this world

We are told to gird up our hearts and minds.

When we are told to be set apart, it means to

Not look like the world, talk like the world, act like the world.

It does not mean we cannot have fun or celebrate the good things!

Put on tender Mercies each day

Cover yourself with garments of Praise

Set a Guard over your mouth

Run from the wickedness that lurks

Beware of what you mark yourself with...

God is the only one that marks us for good works

People act and dress like clowns, or maybe everyday

They celebrate halloween spirits to scare something away?

They scare me...

I use to be a people watcher, no more;

I mind my own business;

I do not want to give them the attention they seek!

Just because everyone else is doing it does not make it right

Okay, enough

Lets walk in a way that pleases the Lord

Can we just dress with dignity?

Anything that was done for self-display

or self-glory will fail to receive a reward.

The steady resolve of just one person can turn

the tide of a battle.

Watch your step

Stay in the light

Shell Shocked and proud of it...

Blessings, Roxy

Who Actually Makes These Rules Anyways....

 

Make this Moment Special, Living From Glory To Glory Blog


Some things just need to find their flow...

Rules

So many rules that we have in our own lives.

Which are actually of our own choosing mostly.

These may have been the very things that have stunted our

"Spiritual Walk and our Peace of Mind"

You must figure out how you are unique,

And what fills your life with true you...

We are not cookie cutter people;

We are fearfully and wonderfully made!


Sometimes we can be triggered by thinking;

I need to do this or that!

Who makes these rules anyways?

You hear that voice in your head...

You are supposed to be doing this and that now!!

That makes you feel sick to your stomach?

And most the time it is things don't really matter!

We must change this feeling of dread into doing

The things that blend into the harmony

Of your wellbeing

 Sometimes it could just

Be that changing the time of day you do something.

Planning things when you have more strength!

Or clarity of mind.

"All of our Christian life is learning to be a Christian"

And this cannot happen in the same way for everyone.

So we should blend all are wonderful

Energies and experiences into a sweeter rhythm of our days

"It is about bringing our hearts and minds into complete

Subjection to our King"

So many are feeling overwhelmed and heavy hearted;

Stop and ask the Lord how to re-orchestrate your days.

I no longer what be a  part of the Rat-Race or

The status queue...

The conquest of this may be slow,

But so worth the peace and calm!

And I also think you will be more able to hear 

~His Still Small Voice~

The Greatest Mathematical Exercise In The Universe...

Our Days Are A Holy Gift, Living From Glory To Glory Blog...


I don't want to just merely exist.

I want to live aware and alive, and on purpose.

I want to learn and create something special daily.

Our days are a holy gift.

I want the light of my ordinary days filled with joy;

And every day miracles...


~And this is how we do it~

Slow down, Love your life!  "Because it's a gift"

Rest on a Holy Rest "He has made provisions"

Create something, "Even if it's just a peaceful atmosphere"

If you are a fighter, "Then Fight for Joy"


I realized that counting my blessings

Is the greatest mathematical exercise in the universe!

A thankful heart adds purpose and clarity to your day!


Time is speeding up, so to counteract this we slow down;

And savor the moments and seasons!

I will not be robbed of the precious moments,

I am given each day!

Use your gifts every day!

If we do not encourage others, they will slowly wilt.

(Like a plant that is not given a drink)

~I want to be someone who has a teachable spirit~


I want the Lord to look at this daughter and say,

I think I will give her another portion of chocolate cake,

Because she enjoyed that first slice I gave her so much!

If you will take what He has given you,

And use it to bless or encourage others.

He will give you more...

Especially if we give it away or share it!

A story:

 I remembered one time many years ago, when I went with a friend we had a special day planned, we were going shopping together. Back in the day, this was a big deal! We headed out and what an impact the trip was for me. Spiritually and learning a lesson!

So we traveled for a Shopping day in a different city. As she was wanting to spend some birthday money, her Father had sent her for her Birthday. And she was wanting to buy some art products, because she is an artist. And as we were having tea and scones in a little tea shop. (Her Treat for me) She pulled out some money and handed it to me, and I said what's this for? And she said it's no fun shopping together if you don't have part of the special gift I was given. I want to share my Birthday blessings with you!


So, I guess the moral of this story is this.

It touched me so profoundly!

Be A Giver, In your time, your money, your talents, your joys! Because it's a gift to be used and enjoyed!


My Quote:

An eye for an eye will leave the

Whole world blind!


Love Ya All So Much

There Are Only Two Tracks, Beware Of Your Surroundings...

Be Watchful, Living From Glory To Glory Blog...


Past, Present And Future...
The Narrow Way
And The Road That leads To Destruction

Have you ever had this feeling;
 You were headed down the wrong path?

Or you found yourself in the wrong place;
In a very wrong timing?

Every single day we are up against the responsibility
To be accountable of where and when we are in any
Given situation...

It's not like I'm real big on intuition,
But, if you have even just once known that you knew,
You were not in a good place or situation!

We hopefully have all heard the phrase in these last
Few years is this one...
"Have your head on a swivel"

Look around people
There are a few bad apples out there
They are just lurking around looking for maybe
Who or What they can steal, kill or defile?

Hey, remember I'm the positive and encourage other Blogger,
Kinda gal!!
But, I would not be a good friend if I did not tell you
Or warn you of this undercurrent that is spilling over!

It's like a floodgate has opened and lawlessness as was
Given the okay to just flood every city and town.

Look around, they are watching you out of the corner of their eye.

I use to feel safe and go anywhere by myself,
Well, NO MORE

My Grandma back in the day would say,
Those Hoolagins are up to No GOOD!

I know with all my heart that we must make good choices!
What and Where we go and the things we do;
If you make yourself vulnerable, remember this;
All have a consequence!
For yourself and others!

So what this post is trying to convey to you all is this!
Be aware of your surroundings;
Be loving and kind, But not stupid...
These Hooligans usually work in a pack.
One is watching, one is scoping, one is trying to 
Get your attention!
Never park next to a Van!!!!!!
If there is a flyer on your windshield on your window
Do Not Touch It
If there is writing on your car, Beware they have targeted you!
If there are two people in a car parked by yours, Beware,
They may be trying to grab your purse or steal your car!
If they have a gas can and ask for help, Beware!
Just saying: Because I've had all these happen.

Then when something happens, we hear I never saw this coming!
Well, I have had the unfortunate experience 
In the Past of being a target...

So at the Present time in my life, I will be wise!
"Be mindful of who is around you!"

So in the Future, You can protect yourself and
Your loved ones by having the inner alarm fined tuned!

Behold, I send you out as sheep
In the midst of wolves.
Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
But beware of men.
Matthew 10:16

The whole world is a mission field.
Share when you can
Use wisdom

So stay on the right track
Going in the right direction
And in the right timing...

Run, turn around, never put yourself in a position
Of being harmed in any way!!

A gentle Warning To You All...

~I Care About Your Safety~

Always, Roxy

The Touch Of Beauty



The Touch Of Beauty

What I perceive this to look like,

It is the very things you may have done yesterday;

And the very things you can still do today!

This beauty resides in the earnest words you spoke

To someone who sorely needed encouragement.

The new vision you sparked in someone's heart!

This Is A Touch Of Beauty

Share those ideas and words that create and inspire!

There is a heavenly plan for each of us;

But when you can come along and leave a lovely

Thought or a vision of inspiration.

"It becomes like a burning star to guide or give light,

To the very thing another person is to be doing."

Helping one another in this journey.

To leave a friend or a stranger with an inspired idea,

Is a bit like a heavenly dew.

Refreshed and full of life once again.


Remember there is nothing new under the sun 

Scripture tells us, so we are all in this together.


So many have lost so much and when the spark becomes

But a cold dark ember, we must add some kindling,

Help fan the flame of someone's dream.

Some of these ideas were never meant for you;

But to share with another to help them do

The very thing you may see in your mind's eye.

Some ideas are for you alone, but mostly

These plans our placed within us before we are even born!

But yes we are our brother's keeper!

Help them to plod on

Share your light and see another prosper,

To finally be able to write that story, paint that picture.

To make a part of this world to be more beautiful.

And filled with...

~The Touch Of Beauty~


Best Wishes For A Blessed And Beautiful Life

Hold The Fort...

 Faith, Living from Glory To Glory Blog...

~Be Faithful~

"Faith Honors God"

God Honors Faith...

True Faith produces people who are stable;

They look to God for Wisdom!

Knowing He will respond!

"Everything we do must be done by Faith"


Ask the Lord to protect your mind;

In these days as in the days of Noah,

We can see so many who are unstable,

They fly off the handle. Road rage is common.

They cry be tolerant of my bizarre looks and character.

The stranger the better they try to stand out!

Express yourself...


Humble yourselves before the Lord,

And He will lift you up!

James 4:10

True Elevation


It seems like things heat up in every arena,

But please don't be a Hot Head!

Watch and Listen

Cool Down

Just Breathe

Be stable and not double minded!

Worry Kills, but confidence in God is like

A healing balm...

"Trials do not make us what we are;

They reveal what we are!"


Greeting to all of my friends,

We are friends in a unique and different way.

Because most of us have never met!

But there is a bright future just down the road a spell.

So, Hold the Fort For He is Coming Again...

Sewing Jumpers, Living from Glory To Glory Blog...


Here is a little photo of the 4 Jumpers

I have made so far!

I did the pleats on three of them, because the gathering

Made me Look Fluffy (SMILE)

I just want to encourage each of you to slow down;

Try to be mindful of the birds singing, 

Take pleasure in whatever you set your hand too!

And Don't Forget To:

Leave A Sparkle Wherever you Go


Hugs, Roxy

It May Be Time To Pull Back And Listen...


Lay Back Against Him And Breathe, Living From Glory To Glory Blog...

Sometimes We Just Need to Be Shielded
From the Onslaught of Busy...


Be Still And Know That I Am God

~ Enjoy the little things in life.
But one day you'll look back and realize
They were the Big Things~

I absolutely love this quiet season!

Some seasons are so busy you can't hear yourself think!

It's not that I want to hear myself think;
But rather hear the Lord directing my thoughts.

When you are not able to focus and you sense
a fever of the dreaded squirrel disorder!
It is time to pull back and re-adjust.

When the voices become a blur and you can't distinguish,
What is truly being said, you must slow down and be
Quick to listen...

I remember as a young girl being able to run everywhere!
After all, I had a pair of those PF Flyer Tennis Shoes.

But, I mostly just go at a steady pace.
Not quick or too slow
But moving in the right direction.

My calender is not so full of having to be here or there!

If I have the strength to do more on any given day;
I will just fly by the seat of my pants;
(Or Jumper)

God is always doing something new in our hearts
~If we will let Him~

When, I make a mistake when I am writing in my journal,
I will just pick out a pretty sticker and cover it up!

Don't make the mistake of not taking the time
To notice the little things in your day.

And if you do make a mistake ask God to forgive you!
And put a pretty sticker over the blunder!

The Word Says Love Covers a multitude of sins...

Happy Quiet Days
Much Love and Appreciation For Each
And Every One Of You...
Hugs, Roxy

Being Self-Taught Can Be A Hard Thing, But A Good Thing...


Living From Glory To Glory, Laura Ashley Pattern

Self- Taught in just about everything!
I am going to make this pattern in a mock first using
A nice cotton muslin fabric first!
Before I start cutting out the pattern on the pretty
fabric I purchased for this Laura Ashley pattern!


Singer Seweing Machine, Living From Glory To Glory Blog

I've had this sewing machine forever,

Nothing fancy but it's strong and reliable!

Being self-taught is a bit of a challenge!

I think we have stopped handing down many things

To the next generation!

Rag Rugs, Living From Glory To Glory Blog...


Over the years I have told myself, you can do this!
Now, grant you I may be in the category 
"Jack of all trades and master of none"

But it has not stopped me from trying and learning!

I bought a beautiful piano and I'm still trying to teach myself.
I have had two different teachers that both lasted maybe a month.

I've taken watercolor painting classes in person and online.

I have been doing some sewing again after 30 years;
Sewing up some cotton jumpers!
The patterns might as well be written in Japanese!
Even the pictures are confusing?!#

But, the point I am trying to make is this;
We can learn new things without an instructor or teacher!
Mind you it would be nice to have some help.
But, in reality no one has time anymore.

One thing we have are helpful videos on the internet!
We can order books to teach ourselves!

Never stop short of learning a new skill;
Or advancing to a new level!
And remember it is so good for our brains too
Learn new skills and to follow directions.

I was not born with natural abilities in sewing or painting
But I didn't let it stop me from trying...

And we can help someone else to just try to learn
A new hobby or craft!
Share what you have learned!

I have this memory of my Mother teaching herself;
Of many things knitting, sewing, canning!
But while she was still here, I failed to learn from her
As much as I should have.

May we always be teachable of the things of the Lord.
But yet not afraid to dig deep into His Word all by ourselves.

Never stop creating beauty in your heart and your home!



Oh, I forgot to mention the one crafty thing that I have just
Had a ball doing, and it's called "Junk Journaling"
It's so much fun and relaxing!
I need to do a little post on this craft very soon!


Junk Journaling Photo, Living From Glory To Glory Blog...



What is a craft or project you have learned or taught yourself??
