Every Morning Is A New Day To Make It Beautiful...
I think we can all relate to this idea;
Because I find my self by the end of each day feeling exhausted,
A bit overwhelmed and spent.
So when I have completed all that I possible could do in that day.
My day is done and I need to stop and do something to relax my heart and mind!
Having a bedroom that is clean and uncluttered and clean sheets,
May help in getting a good nights rest...
If we have not learned to shut out the world's noise and confusion,
And to relax our brains it can be a problem!
Learning to let go and allow yourself to sleep without worry!
I know its easy to say, but truly if you have been alive long enough,
You know worry changes nothing!
So this little post is about starting each new day when you open
Your eyes is to aspire to make this day beautiful!
Each day as we all know will have challenges, but how we react to them
Is totally in our ability to respond well!
How to make each day beautiful is as unique as each reader is;
We all have the ability to say kind things to others.
To be able to ignore someone causing friction.
We can make our kitchen table look lovely and inviting.
We can ignore our phones every time the ding.
We can work on some craft or a special meal preparation.
We can stop listening to news.
We can look for little ways to make our lives pretty.
We can enjoy a cup of tea and look through a magazine.
We can pamper ourselves!
We can concentrate on new ideas for rearranging a room
or changing out some furniture.
Sometimes it is as easy as a bookcase or a picture.
I believe if we will make an effort God will supply the energy and creativity!
~Read~ Philippians 4:8
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right,
whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable-
If anything is excellent or praiseworthy-
~Think about such things~
~Truly the state of your thinking can make your day beautiful~
Blessings, Roxy
Living From Glory To Glory Every New Morning...
I agree. I'm learning to shut off the world as much as possible. It can be so depressing. I have music on most of the time. Have you heard of "Sounds Like Reign" on utube? It's a young family who makes music in their studio on their property. Mostly the old hymns. I love it and the music is absolutely free to download. I play gospel music or hymns most of the time while cleaning or knitting. I only go to my groups on facebook once a day and avoid the newsfeed of negative talk. I belong to several crafting groups on fb and also a few Christian ones. Those I enjoy and are ALWAYS positive and uplifting. Otherswise, besides my blogs that I read, I avoid other social media.

Ahhh... clean sheets are one of my favorite treats in life.
ReplyDeleteI also, when in bed relaxing before turning off the light, practice my memory verses.
It just so happens, my current memory verse is Philippians 4: 4-9.
Yes, my dear, all of the above. I think we are kindred sisters, as I relate and do most everything you share. I know we are sister's in Christ, and that is another reason we feel, think and do things alike. My quiet time with candles and coffee, and my CD of ocean sounds and sea gulls and spending time loving the Lover of my Soul is the way I begin my morning. Clean sheets...Oh yes...a shower and clean hair, tea and scone in the afternoon. Fresh flowers. I've been busy in between all of that being the caregiver for my dearest. The world is falling apart, but we are not of this world, we are just passing through!! Love and Hugs and THANKS!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is so true Roxy. Thank you for The reminder.
ReplyDeleteRoxy, such an encouraging post. Philippians 4:8 is a very favorite verse and truly makes a big difference in how we face our day.
ReplyDeleteI love making my home warm and comfy and changing things up frequently. By shopping in my own closets to change a bedspread or curtains or even the placemats for supper makes me happy and doesn’t cost a thing.
Hugs and blessings,
Dorothy
