Emotions Unchecked
It's a mistake when we think we can let down our guard
and allow ourselves to be blah, crabby, blue
or just an emotional mess!
When I start my day, I can usually tell it's
going to be a push to get out from under a cloud.
It can be a feeling of just not being your chipper self!
I will tell myself...
Girl you better get dressed and put on your
"Garment Of Praise"
So I get busy getting focused and start praising the Lord;
I get my routine warmed up and take charge
~Seize The Day~
Our life in Christ has to be more intentional.
Our family and friends need to see us walking
with Jesus even with the worlds ups and downs.
Be filled daily with the Holy Spirit.
They need to hear positive, helpful wise words from us.
We are not supposed to be empty, cynical, callous
or complaining to those we love,
Or those we barely know!
I will not take part in this plan to cause
myself to be upset or feeling low.
Because, there is a master plan for me and my life!
Shake it off
Sing
Be Beautiful
Love
Love is the root, good works are the fruit!
Let us consider one another in order to stir up
Love and Good works!
Hebrews 10:24
Lord, Keep me from speaking empty, ungrateful
faithless words...
I so appreciate each and everyone of you that
stops in to read what the Lord has laid on my heart!
I want to be faithful and to love and
encourage others!
I do tell myself once in awhile, I realize I'm
not everybodies cup of tea!
~Orange trees don't have really deep roots,
But typically they can spread far out past the canopy!
Bear much fruit and cover a lot of ground~

Love your thoughts and devotions. I had to smile at "I may not be everyones cup of tea" We are all in the same boat. But that's OK because we are God's Cup of Tea!! I enjoyed your comments on my blog about loving watercolor. I'm tickled you are giving it a try. Watercolors bring me joy! Your thoughts and devotions give me insight. Hugs dear friend.
ReplyDeleteThank you dear Roxy! As usual, beautiful words from a beautiful lady!
ReplyDeleteTo God be the Glory, what a great reminder.💐
Such good advice. I see a lot of people losing their composure. It all goes back to the fruits of the spirit. The hardest one being self control. My new motto has been, silence is golden. I am just watching it all in awe. It is not anything I can control anyway. I give it to the One who does.
ReplyDeleteNicely said!

Something. I think I will need the message. Thank you Roxy.
