How To Persevere In Your Every Day Life...

 

Persevering In Your Every Day

Some days and seasons will just be harder than others!

But we can overcome even if it's just in our own hearts and mind.

Everything seems like a battle anymore.

But we must have a fight to be a victor;

But as we fight we must always remember who the enemy is!

And as sad as it is, we can see God will allow others to be used,

To cause stress and frustration in our lives.

So this is why we must be very wise and diligent who we allow into our lives.

As these people will affect our homes and children with their stuff.

As the holidays are fast approaching, we can make better choices,

 Of who we spend it with and what we do!!

I always have to remind myself to take every thought captive...

Because it will be your mind that will lead you into trouble.

Ask the Lord for wisdom and endurance.

Pray for Peace of Jeruselum

Pray to be able to make better choices

Pray for God to remove all hindrances as you run your race

Pray to be a good steward of your time and money

Learn to walk in peace as much as it depends upon you!

I love this scripture; But some will not allow peace.

                   ~ If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace

with everyone. ~

Romans 12:18

Practice giving thanks with a grateful heart!!

Living From Glory To Glory

Are You On Auto Pilot...

 

Today Is What I Have Been Given

How will I use my time at the present time?

Is everything going to be on autopilot?

Will I just do the essentials in my survival mode?

No, I think I will make the mindful attitude of these wonderful choices;

I choose to be Happy

I choose Joy

Live in the Moment

Stay Calm and Drink A Cup Of Tea

Stop and smell the Roses

Maybe this whole Idea Of being in the moment is valuable.

How many times does a sweet moment just fly by?

May I listen to my own advice and take in this day and live;

To the fullest...

Make the time to thank God for all you have been given!

Because we are not promised tomorrow!

~Turn the auto pilot Off~

Hugs, Roxy

Sturdy Shoes...

Thy shoes shall be iron and brass; and as thy days,

So shall thy strength be.

 Deuteronomy 33:25 KJV

We can be sure that the Lord will provide sturdy shoes for our journey...

I am amazed at the strength the Lord gives us each and every day!

Yet, I am in awe in how we can know that we will have all we need in every journey.

If God sends you, He will provide!

Some terrain in life will be gentle and smooth.

Some will become rocky and steep incline or decline!

Some of these terrain's will be physical, some can be emotional.

Financial or spiritual.

Some days I feel like I am wearing a wimpy pair of

Flip-flops

Other days my shoes appear to have no arch support,

Which can really hurt your feet.

I think I must be flat footed!

The other day I wore a pair of ankle boots with a summer dress!

It looked rather interesting, I was prepared to take a hike!

Even though I was sitting through a church service!

But actually my feet were tired and I felt the need for the

extra support.

The Terrain

The sidewalks are uneven and cracked and crumbling!

The dirt roads are dusty and  they have rock's you tumble over!

The highways are filled with vehicles racing at high speeds!

The mud puddles are sloppy!

What's  a girl to do?

"Sometimes, 

it's just best to put on a pair of slippers and just stay home"

My Shoes

I remember having a pair of tap dancing shoes as a little girl

I remember having a pair of white Go-Go boots

I remember having snow boots

 with a little elastic hook and button on the side.

I even had to have a pair of moccasins once.

Wore a pair of wedding shoes!

Each foot covering has its purpose

Now days I own a few pairs of sensible shoes I can just slip on!

Some are kinda cute, some are just sturdy!

Maybe I just need to run barefoot!

Dangers of going barefoot- 

Been stung by a bee,

Stepping on a sticker

Getting a splinter in your foot

Finding a sliver of glass

The pavement is hot or freezing

We need protection for our feet...

I'm always amazed to think that as the Jewish people wandered the desert

Their shoes, never wore out!

Two things were provided for these pilgrims journey,

Shoes and Strength

So as a child of God, may I march boldly on!

He will give us strength for each burden and terrain we encounter!

~My only hope is total reliance on His strength~

Sunshine Or Shadows...

The Goodness is more noticeable as the shadows grow deeper.

I have had the privilege of seeing the goodness in so many people!

I always have this little picture or analogy of when we

had fresh milk and after a little while the cream would

come to the top of the buckets.

It's my most favorite part of the milk.

I like to think that this goodness is like the cream;

It's rising to the top...

So I believe those that persevere in these days and times,

Will be like cream rising to the top.

I think we all have been seeing and hearing and experiencing

so many troubles, it's felt a bit like the shadows 

that are growing longer and darker.

But, We must be like the sunflowers just keep following

The Sunshine...

We all know the darkness will be exposed!

And that the truth will prevail!

Now, this cream has many uses,

We can have ice cream, and then don't forget the butter.

In other words, we have a wonderful future!

"For surely goodness and mercy,

 shall follow you all the days of your life

And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever"

Psalm 23:6

Don't allow others to stand in the path of your sunshine!

They are like the long shadows.

Just step around the thing that wants to steal the light.

*You can't stop the cream from rising to the top*

Don't be caught off guard;

You know the shadows are moving closer,

They're getting bolder!

And actually they're telling you what they are doing.

Whatever they accuse you of is what they are doing!

Now, Let that sink in... 

~Hope for the best

Prepare for the worst~

When The Enemy Comes In Like A Flood...

When The Enemy Comes In Like A Flood,

The Spirit of the Lord shall raise up a standard against him.

Isaiah 59:19

Sometimes you may feel all alone, But it is not true dear ones!

We can all see a fundamental change that is being implemented!

Many true Americans still believe in one nation under God...

There are many that have been groomed to see a greater good!

But it is a lie!

Everything does seem a bit off!

But none of this is a surprise to God.

We are in a battle daily!

There is a spiritual fight to rob you of your peace!

And we all know the enemy will use other people.

But don't take the bait...

I read a book years ago call the Bait Of Satan

By John Bevere

I do not endorse this author personally, as it was a Bible study

we did many years ago.)

The main point in this book was this;

~Don't Be Easily Offended~

I have seen and heard about more people that have been

just lambasted lately!

Maybe it's the heat!

Maybe they are just not able to regulate their emotions.

I do know even for myself, 

I have been on the receiving end of these assaults.

Just remember when you are falsely accused;

Remember who the accuser is!

The enemy has to use someone to hurt you.

It may take you a little while, but just forgive them!

Because if you don't it will stop you from doing what God

 Has given you to do!

Sometimes it's just easier to limit your time with others.

Stay off social media more.

(There's better things to do with your time)

Be very wise in truly knowing who is a friend!

Keep to yourself more...

Be kind as you can be!

But stop being naive about the dangers in our world!

And I am so sorry for any of you that have been attacked or accused;

Especially when you know in your heart you did nothing wrong.

Many times it is from the accusers own pain and rejection.

You do not need to try and vindicate yourself.

Just ask God for wisdom and repent for anything 

You may have been wrong about.

Check to see if there is any motive that doesn't please the Lord.

Remember do not take the bait from satan; 

He is a liar and he causes division and destroys

Whoever and whatever he can!

Stay strong

Stay focused

Stay close to the Lord Jesus

Forgive

Repent

Revive

Forgive others

Forgive yourself

Forget and keep moving ahead...

Blessings, Roxy

Everyday Living From Glory To Glory

Take Time To Refocus...

 ~Don't Be Discouraged~

Now is the time to celebrate...

Forget the stuff that has tried to make you in affective

The things that have accused you and left you in a daze;

They are meant to wound you and to  cause suffering.

Take all the stuff to the Lord and push through.

You have a job to do!

A calling to fulfill!

So many are walking around wounded and hurt.

And may never be able to make things right.

So stop being a victim and don't give that thing power over your life!

We are called to be overcomers...

Ask the Lord how you can start celebrating in His goodness!

Do something special to recognize what God has done in your life!

You don't have to be perfect;

And you do not have to be a victim either.

Arrows are flying everywhere!

So raise your shields high dear ones!

You do not have to be a wounded soldier left to die!

I had to remember who the accuser really is;

Firstly, Focus on Jesus, a heavenly focus!

Make time...

Take time to Refocus...

Fill up your vision and focus with heavenly places.

Because when things get confusing, or you get blind-sighted,

When nagging worries or disappointments hurt your heart.

Push aside these lesser thoughts and worldly distractions.

~You must lock your gaze on God's Son~

Read 2 Corinthians 3:18

The more we focus on Jesus, the more we become like Him...

Doing What Is Right With Patience And Kindness...

 

~Doing What Is Right~

So much foolishness I see in the world.

So many making bad choices.

But, So very thankful that we can do what is right!

We make choices everyday, all day long!

Firstly, I wanted to look at patience in the heart of a woman.

Patience is a virtue that is so very precious anymore.

That is why we are told to be slow to speak;

And quick to hear!

The good and meaningful things in life take time!

As we learn each day to wait for something,

We are learning patience.

Even in sorrow and troubles we mature.

Bringing new life into this world takes a long time.

Having a happy solid marriage takes patience.

Cooking and baking from scratch.

Making a gift for someone.

We have lost the art of enjoying the journey;

"Take back the joy in taking care of someone or something"

Use your voice, Use your hands, Use your gifts

Be mindful of this day and even the moment!!

This is the day and season to choose to do what is right!

Being quick is not the goal!

To be part of the woke majority is not going to help.

Being all inclusive is not godly.

But, Being kind to all is precious!

Taking joy in the process of all that you have to do is a gift

To yourself and to others!

Don't stop now...

The way you run your race is as important

As in finishing it!!

Happy Spring...

It will be so amazing when we all get to heaven;

And we can fellowship together...

~Keep looking up~

~keep growing in Grace and Kindness~

May You Aspire To Lead A Quiet Life, But Don't Believe The Lies...

We don't have time for everything...

So we must not become entangled with

The world's misinformation and its folly and chatter.

Those in the intelligence department are trained

to listen to the destructive chatter, to listen for threats

against us!

But,

 We cannot be ignorant of what is being called truth!

What are they telling us?

But I believe the worst part of

This information or propaganda is this!

So many lies being told by our government and media;

If you do not contend for the truth

You may come to believe the lies.

Satan is working hard to keep us ignorant of the truth!

"But I truly believe we can overcome evil with good"

Firstly Fill up the crevices of your time

With the things that matter most.

This will cost something

But it will be worth it.

Have you ever heard the statement

The Deep State?

Or "You're in Deep Doo-Doo?"

I refuse to be ignorant of what the narrative is really trying to do!

Did you see who our officials honored for Woman's day?

Not A Woman!!

Not Mothers Day...

Because they now just want to call us birthing people.

Even the feminism were appalled.

Now, Do you see why it's hard to blog when we are all being censored.

They want to silence us.

These sad state of affairs makes me cringe.

This one of the reasons it's hard to just pretend everything is okay.

It's even more important to dig deep to find the truth!

Don't believe everything they tell you!

This is no different then the false teachers in the Church!

We are warned to contend for the faith and the truth!

So now more than ever we must work hard for the

Biblical womanhood and home!!

Put your apron on!

The Armour Of God...

Gird Yourself

Don't believe the lies!!

Love the sinner, not the sin...

If I was on another social media I would be banned

IF I SAID ALL I REALLY THOUGHT ABOUT THIS HOT MESS

So

Choose the life that is hid with God.

Then your heart will be set on

Things which are above!

Abide in Christ

Stay focused on home.

The only reason for a godly wife

and mother too

leave her home responsibilities

is to minister for the Lord

to someone He has

Directed her to minister to.

And these situations are very rare. 

God will never lead you on a path

if it compromises your calling as a

helpmeet to your husband and

Your high calling work as a mother to your children.

Blessed you will be if you do what you are called to do!

We can only truly do good with God's strength and direction!

I believe every lie will be exposed

I believe what you do in your home can change the world

I believe we must stand strong for the truth!

I believe we must keep the home fires burning!

That's if they don't outlaw our gas stoves and fireplaces!

See what I mean? I could go on for days...

But, I will stop myself for now!

I have cards to write out!

Breakfast to prepare

Laundry to do

Prayers to pray

Thanks for taking the time to read this post...

Hope it inspired you to do what is right!

Don't compromise the truth for the lie...

Hugs, Roxy
