Clean Up The Environment...

Here I am at the Public Library ...

 And thinking where are the comforts of my home and my sweet familiar lap top?

Mr. Sony called and they hope to send out my computer today,

 I was told that I needed a new hard drive, and software.

I think I am in the teen area of our library I can hear music coming from all their headphones!!

 The music makes me think of the title of my blog that I was wanting to use:

"Clean Up The Environment"

 Dirt and grime or pollution can come in many forms,

 the one I want to speak of today is air pollution.

 Not the kind you would normally think of,

 this kind of air pollution has to do with what we say and how we speak.

 Our words can be "verbal pollution".

 Did you ever notice when you're walking through the grocery store,

 there is often some mom screaming at Johnny to "shut your#***#*##***mouth".

 And of course her screaming and her words

 are way worse to listen to than Johnny's screaming.

 I usually shudder whenever I hear a mother speaking word curses to her children.

 I know  most of us are not guilty of speaking this way to our loved ones,

 but often we allow negative talk or gossip to flow through the airwaves out of our mouths.

 I love the scripture that says

: Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth,

 but what is good for necessary edification. -Ephesians 4:29

I was reading in my devotional today,

 Which suggested taking the challenge of avoiding critical words for a whole week.

 Those who participated were surprised to find out how little they spoke!

 As they continued the experiment, they actually had to relearn conversation skills

. Scary, Huh?

 It might be something worthwhile to try ourselves and see how we do.

"What! Never speak one evil word, Or rash, or idle, or unkind!

O how shall I, most gracious Lord,

This mark of true perfection find? -Wesley"

Hope to have my laptop back soon and blogging as usual.
 I can think better when rap music is not thumping through the headphones into the airwaves behind me.
 Many blessings until next time.

Signature Scent...

Sweet Smelling Fragrance!

You can't see it, or hear it, but you sure can smell it.

 Scent is a powerful force!

Think of all the memories attached to scents of our childhood and holidays.

Fragrance is a powerful tool used in the old testament, a certain scent was used as a part of worship. Now, today God uses us Christians as a sweet smelling aroma to those all around us.

Now, this is just a thought, but what is the effects that lingers after you walk out of a room or a building? May you live in such close communion with Christ, that you become a sweet smelling aroma in the lives of those individuals that you have touched each day and wherever you go!

 ( Christ through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in everyplace)

2 Corinthians 2:14

Hello Hello...

Hello, Hello!!

Jesus is calling:
 Sometimes my phone rings off the hook and other times,
 I pick it up and check to see if it's broken (smile).
 Oh, but Jesus always calls. He calls my name.
 He is the breath of life. (He is the head wind).
 May His Singing refresh you today
~ As He calls out each of our names~

He Sings Over Each Of Us!

A New Thing...

I want to wish all of you a very Happy spring season, and may the sun shine upon your face! And remember to keep your eye's upon the Son. It is time to be refreshed and to look with great expectation to a new season, which holds the promise of a new thing.

Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland.

Isaiah 43:18-19

Blessings,

Welcome To Our Home...

  Welcome to my home this morning!! 
Take your shoes off and come in! 

What a difference a day can make, yesterday was 75 degrees and today it is a light snow. The saying of the month of March is coming in like a lion and going out like a lamb.

  But praise God our Savior came as a lamb and He is coming again, The Lion Of Judah. 
Only JESUS is seen as both the lion and the lamb. Gentle yet with all power and authority!

Home, even just the sound of the word can give us all different kinds of thoughts and emotions. May your life and home is a beacon of love and comfort and safety to those that God sends your way!

Remember the word says we could even entertain angels, so show hospitality. And this does not always mean a full course dinner, but rather to give generous treatment of guest or strangers while in our abode.
Also, remember to send each guest out with a spoken blessing over them!

 So now, May the Lord Bless you and keep you on this wonderful day.

Blessings, Roxy

His Energizing Power...

Refreshing Waters

I cry out to all who are weary, I want to encourage each of you to brush off the dust of endless task, that have left you weary and tired. For rejoice, He has given all things to us to accomplish each and every task.

 It may be your a new mommy or a home school Mom, or a grandma of three very active boys.
 Just being a woman, a wife or a mother, puts you in the place of caregiver of life. Now you have the choice each day to give of yourself till your dry and weary or give from the overflow the secret holding tank?

There is no loss when we serve from this place, it is the place of doing all things in His strength.
Blessed are those whose strength is in you, who have set their hearts on the (pilgrimage). This is key, it is a journey. As they pass through the valley of Baca, (deep valley of tears). THEY make it a place of springs; the rain also covers it with pools. As they go from strength to strength, till each appear before God in Zion. Ps 84

So each of us will struggle and cry those tears, we get weary sisters lets not discount our pains and fears. But rather, Love one another through it all. And do not forget a word of encouragement to all who cross your path today.

Energizing power comes from the time you spend with Him, it comes from reading His Word, it comes from a timely word spoken into you.
 Let's not forget the practical things that will give you energy. Sleep and good food to fuel your body and a walk outside to clear the cobwebs. And my favorite a good laugh till I cry. Blessings to all you gals out there!! Remember, we can do all things in His strength!
