SHARING YOUR LIGHT

Are you helping to build up others? John 8:12 says, "Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life". We are to be like Jesus--we need to shine our light and make someone else's day brighter. Some people think that if they share their light with others, their light will go dim. Some people will even try to snuff other people's light out. But your light illuminates even more when you share it. Something to remember as we're going into this Christmas weekend. May you let your light shine ever so bright this holiday season. Take care and God bless.

GOD IS NOT AN AFTERTHOUGHT

Do you trust God with your WHOLE life? Psalm 37:3 says, "Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shall thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed". We need to stop treating God like a stepdaddy. We get into trouble trying to do things our way, and then we want God to fix it. GOD DOES NOT BLESS MESS!!!! We need to ask God straight up about any and every situation that comes into our life. God will always guide us in the right direction. Don't think about God after the fact; learn how to keep God first and foremost on your mind.

OUTLOOK FOR 2012

Are you excited about the upcoming year? If not, you should be. Always remember that your best days are always ahead of you. Don't use the past to determine where you are going to end up. Leave your past in the past, never to look upon it again. That's what God does; he throws our past into the sea of forgetfulness. Our past helps to make us stronger for the plan that God has for our life; it is not meant to break us down.

Take the time to ask God for direction when you need to do so. He will always guide us down the right path. Notice I didn't say the easy path; we will all go through struggles while we are on this earth. But don't let that stop you from believing for the best for yourself. Opportunities are always around us--you just have to set your mind to finding them. Take care and God bless.
