Good morning,Sorry that I left a week pass before posting,I hope this posting will be a blessing.
What do you feel most people's lives are driven by? What has been the driving force in your life? My driving force is my family.Almost everything I do is for them.I say almost cuz at times I am a bit selfish and do things for myself.I do not work because I want to.I work because at the current time I need to.I do get depressed at times because of having to work,I would love to be a stay at home mom again.Ladies,if you are a stay at home mom,Praise God for it.never take that for granted.anyhoo I'm getting off topic here,lol.. The driving force in others,would be success,money,matialistic things.I know that I really need to stay in Gods word everyday & allow his word to lead me and change me.To talk to him everyday thru prayer.To have a much deeper relationship with him. And to work on not needing things as much.Yes, its nice to have nice things,but I do not need them.
Up to this point, what image of metaphor has best described your life? A race, a circus, something else? A race & a circus all in one.With working,homeschooling,taking the kids to dr.appointments,housework,trying to get enough sleep ,and trying to find time for eveyone ,(family & friends) I feel as I am racing thru life & most days my life feels like a circus.My housework sits alot ,because somedays I just don't have time for it.I need to work on that.I need to really,get myself on schedule & stick with it.Life would prolly be easier if I was more organized.I need to work on doing the things that will bless my Family the most.By doing that I know I will please God!
If everyone understood that life on earth is really preparation for eternity, how would we act differently? I believe that everyone would be kinder,more gentle,And really think about their actions.
What do people get attached to on earth that keeps them from living for God's purpose? Things,wealth,ect.
What have you been attached to that could keep you from living for God's purpose? Trying to please everyone.I am a pleaser.Its my personality trait.I used to be worse,I could never say no ,but over the years I did learn how to say no. However,I still worry about hurting someones feelings,ect.so, I still rearrange my time to pease other people.When infact the only ones I should be concerned about pleasing,would be God,my Husband of course.And my children.
My Blessings,-Having Jesus in my life & becoming closer to him.My husband,I am truely blessed to have a hard working husband..My Children & grandchildren.My Job,even though I wish I didn't have to work,It is a blessing to have a job to meet the bills and to have money to help my children when they are in need.My husbands job,without it we wouldn't survive.Health insurance,the Ladies group,And all the small stuff we all take for granted everyday.
Prayer requests,Michelles pregnancy that she carries the baby to term & she and the baby are completely healthy after birth.Kimi's eye,that God will touch her & heal her completely,For My husbands health,he has a cold and has been sick for 2 weeks.My health,I now started back with a cough & sore throat,I think I caught it from my hubby.And that God will touch my husbands life,and my childrens lives that they will become closer to him.For me to stay in Gods word everyday & to have a deeper relationship with Jesus!
