Daily Scripture: Genesis 1:3-5

And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 5God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day. ~Genesis 1:3-5

God said it and it was. He is so glorious that simply speaking His desires can make them happen. Can you image having the power to speak something and have it happen? I do not even want that kind of power if I could have it because a whole lot of things would be happening that would not remotely be of God. I would speak a Mercedes in my garage. There probably would be some people that just vanished into thin air. Debt? What debt? And all of a sudden that excess baby fat would just melt away.

No it is better that we do not have that type of speaking power. God knows that we would not be able to handle it. Nevertheless, He gave us all that we could handle. He gave us Jesus and through Him the Holy Spirit. Now, I believe, with that comes a little bit of something special. We are not going to create the earth or move mountains with our words but through the Holy Spirit working in our lives we can do great things for God. If through the guidance of the Holy Spirit we transform our thoughts into positive action, there is no limit to the awesome things that we can accomplish not only in our lives but in the lives of others. That in itself is a little piece of the astounding power of God.

Thought: This awesome God loves me!

Ah..............but to some degree we do have some tongue power. For example, If we keep speaking negative things into our lives such as, i am never going to be happy and continue to down play our selves we will have exactly what we have told our selves. Like my self, I say I am young i am vibrant and i will to be happy and it is happening I am receiving what i have said- I look younger than my age. I have more energy than i can bargain for and i choose to be happy daily. As God would say in his word in what so ever state that we are in choose to be content. Any way, the point is our tongue can bless or curse us.

You know what, you are so right. We can definitely speak negaitve and positive energy into our lives. I for one need to do better in remembering that. At the same time, a person can say she is going to get out of debt all she wants but if she does not put a plan of action behind that then she is only saying it. Although God can make it happen, supernaturally, as well. That is how awesome He is.

Do Something Different

Do something different. Shake your life up a bit. Our brains are funny little 3 pound masses that can take us for a loop and we are still learning so much about it. As much as I enjoy having a routine in my life because it gives me the illusion of having control, variety is also key for cognitive health. Soomi Lee, PhD, assistant professor in the USF College of Behavior and Community Sciences reports "findings suggest that active and engaged lifestyles with diverse and regular activities are essential for our cognitive health." I am not a regular baker but I wanted to do something different. I have not baked in quite some time and I probably won't even eat all the cake but it was a fun and different activity to do. So even if you do not do something drastic. Shaking things up even a little bit can help change the trajectory of your thought, attitude and day.  Article Source:  Variety and consistency are essential to keep the mind health My related Tiktok below @wandatob

Redirect Your Focus away from Lizzo

Redirect Your Focus away from Lizzo Scroll down to listen to the podcast here Recently a comedian has been under fire for making hurtful comments toward the artist Lizzo about her weight. Aries Spears in an attempt to be funny mocks Lizzo about her weight and her looks. He also goes on to say that he can get away with being a big dude and women cannot. He then attempts to pivot in a spectacular show of hypocrisy that instead of supporting her expressions of confidence women should be pointing out potential health issues linked with obesity. Sir! What are you doing? I really wanted to take this opportunity to point out that we as a people, as a nation should be less focused on individuals and more on the industry that’s putting crappy overprocessed foods on the shelves. They are appealing to our need for convenience. They are using science and psychology to influence us to buy these crappy foods. And let's face it, who doesn’t love a good sweet or salty snack or fast food that we ca

Bust Off That Gut With the Insanity Workout By Carl Barton It can be quite the dizzying experience trying to find the right workout regimen when a person decides to get back into shape. In many cases, it takes a high level of commitment to stay on track with whatever kind physical of activity and/or diet that is chosen. For people who truly desire results and have a high motor, the Insanity Workout could be the right option for a variety of reasons. The Insanity Workout is a high energy workout routine that works on the interval training method. The interval method stresses a period of high activity followed by a period of low activity. This is the key to workout regimen because it warms up muscles, builds them up, and acts as a lactic acid conditioner.
