Creating A Place Of Solace...

 Home Is a Sacred Place

I try to remind myself when I am so busy doing this and that,

Doing the same chores day in and day out.

That I am not JUST doing chores,

But rather creating a home life;

That is filled with security of a safe haven!

I want my home to be filled with warmth and comfort!

A place where we all can feel nurtured!

Summer is a time of being outside more.

What I have been doing is making a place to sit outside

And relax, not always having to water and pull weeds!

I find it's just as important to do the needed chores to

Keep things running smooth.

But taking time to enjoy the birds singing,

The pretty clouds in the sky!

So remember to keep a little space in the great outdoors;

That is what I call my outside living-room!

Great little treasures to place in this area to make it beautiful!

Spray paint some of those wore out items,

 buy some real or fake flowers,

To place in some pretty jars or pots for that summer vibe!

Take delight in your home!

Remember, you're not just doing chores,

But creating a place of solace in the fruits of your labor!

Enjoy and do something that brings life to your heart!

Blessings, Roxy

Refresh Your Thoughts And Motives...

Being A Good Steward

Being a good steward really applies to almost every area;

Of our lives...

Lets face it, some days are just more productive than others.

And being a good steward is not always about work or being busy.

But rather being able to discipline one's own impulses and thoughts!

Sometimes I will say to myself

"Don't go there"

"Or I will say just do it"

Your mind is where our discipline starts.

I always try to stop and think before my mind goes rouge.

It's a rough trail we travel on most days.

A friend said to me the other day. I think God tests my patience

to see just how far it will stretch before I snap.

I laughed, but I get it!

I think one of the reasons we can get into sin or just a bad attitude;

Is possibly not taking time to adjust to a new situation.

But here again we must be able to act quickly!

There is always a balance needed.

Are we allowing our minds to roam?

Just thinking it is just not good enough;

Good intentions will get you no where!

As I have aged I can say I am learning to quickly take,

Everything to God in inquiry of help me!

I can't do all of this on my own!

He will refresh your thoughts and motives.

He wants to help you control your mind and thoughts.

~Because He tells us to gird up the loins of your mind~

Don't let your mind control you;

Control your mind!

You are the only one who can be a good steward

"Of Your Mind"

Don't let your mind be a toxic field...

Blessings, Roxy

So Many Are Scarred For Life...

Things Have Truly Changed

No matter how we may perceive this world today;

Things have changed!

I know we now have a weirdness to how people interact,

How we look at others- masked or unmasked

Vaccinated or unvaccinated

We are treated as a socialistic country!

So what am I going to do about it?

Nothing...

I have a brain and I can research the pros and cons!

Some people will be scarred for life,

Others will not feel any different.

We do not know the long term effects from a jab that who knows what's in it!

Look its my opinion...

Children are now scared to death and think masks are normal!

Look lets face it, we are all the guinea pigs here!

I have worn my mask, had covid and still suffer from

The long haulers, immune system compromised maybe for life!

My body has already been hit and I can say for sure its been tough!

Do you see all those that don't even want to go back to work?

Rights, what rights?

They disappear before my very eyes daily!

I will continue to do what is right and safe and live my life;

Fear Not...

Now, where have I heard that??

Only God knows the number of your days and years!

There is an agenda people!

Wake up

Woke agenda

You're paying for it all anyways!

I have never thought of myself as being politically motivated;

But... Just Saying

Enjoy your days, keep moving in the right direction.

Even if everyone is going in a different direction!

Hugs, Roxy
