Is There a Wisdom Ap?

Mark Farley July 18, 2022 0 Likes 105 Views

**Is this available on Amazon or at the Wal-Mart?…**

***Wouldn’t it be great if we could just order wisdom online, download it to our mind computer and keep on moving?***

Heck, even buying the CD and watching it would… no wait, lot’s of late-night ads are already trying this and I don’t think it’s delivering on the desired effect all too well.

**So what is the secret to getting wisdom?**

***I am still trying to figure that part out, but I can share from my own experience as well as watching and learning from others, that wisdom comes from learning, applying, and gaining experience.***

We have a great Book of knowledge that contains many skills, lessons, and insights, but it takes a commitment to read it, share it, and practice the principles it contains.

***It’s a good thing to have a Bible, but we can’t gain from it until we learn from it and apply it to our lives.***

**How’s that working out for you?..**

Check your experience…

“We have learned that whatever the human frailties of various faiths may be; those faiths have given purpose and direction to millions. People of faith have a logical idea of what life is all about.” Big Book pg 49

***Lord, open our minds and hearts with willingness and a thirst to learn from Your Word, AMEN.***

***“Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do! And whatever else you do, develop good judgment.” Proverbs 4:7***

Have a blessed day Y’all!

What if you had a person who coached and mentored you in building a better life?

Help is Always Near

Mark Farley July 17, 2022 0 Likes 109 Views

**2 hands are better than 1…**

In my experience I have learned that most things seem to get accomplished more efficiently when another person is involved.

From raising Miss Kai to making decisions on ministry, career, finance, and other things, I have benefited from seeking and using the wise counsel of Miss Tami and many others I am blessed to have in my life.

Along the way I have learned that I am really never alone, so when I am faced with the need to make an
instant choice or decision,

***I can rely on the Holy Spirit residing in me to guide my thoughts and direct my actions.***

**I am not perfect, and my-self will still gets in the way more than it should, but at least..**.

***I know that I do have the ability to seek God’s will and not rely on my own.***

**How’s that working out for you?..**

Check your experience..

***“What was our choice to be?” Big Book pg. 53***

*Lord, let us look to You through Your Holy Spirit to show us how to navigate the many choices, decisions, and temptations we face daily, AMEN.*

***“Then I will ask My Father and He will give you another Helper. He will be with you forever.” John 14:16***

Have a blessed day Y’all!

***Please help us help others!***

Which Way to Go?

Mark Farley July 16, 2022 0 Likes 166 Views

**“You can go your own way”…**

A great song by Fleetwood Mac.

**It’s great to be independent and it’s our nature to be self-sufficient and self-supporting.**

***Yet, we still need to get our guidance and direction from somewhere in order to continue to be successful.***

Think about it. In most areas of our lives, we are given parameters, instructions, boundaries, and or guidelines.

***We then learn by doing as well as being shown.***

**Finally, experience gives us the confidence and comfort we need in knowing that we are able to succeed.**

***The Lord molds us and shapes us when we are willing into who and what He needs us to be.***

**Where are you getting your direction and guidance from?..**

Check your experience…

***“Next, we decided that hereafter in this drama of life, God was going to be our Director.” Big Book pg 62***

*Lord, please mold us into the masterpieces You have designed each of us to be, AMEN.*

***“Yet you, LORD, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand.” Isaiah 64:8***

Have a blessed day y’all!

How About Asking?

Mark Farley July 15, 2022 0 Likes 184 Views

**ASK… SEEK… KNOCK…**

***These are powerful words requiring individual efforts and actions that lead to amazing and blessed results.***

I get caught up in my own head at times and begin to think that folks are…

**SUPPOSED TO KNOW what I want or need.**

Now, maybe it’s different for you, but when this doesn’t happen…

**I then begin to get resentful and wonder why they are ignoring me.**

It’s the same with our relationship with Christ.

Even though God knows our thoughts even before we form them,

***He still needs us to participate with our will, words, and actions in order to give us what we need or get us to where we need to be***.

**How’s that working out for you?**

***Are you asking, seeking, and providing the effort and actions to make your needs known to God? …***

Check your experience…

***“We found that God does not make too hard terms with those who seek Him.” Big Book pg 46***

*Lord, let us be willing in our hearts to provide the needed actions, efforts, and words to do our part and be in Your will, AMEN.*

***“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” Matthew 7:7***

How’s Your Footing?

How is my prayer life?

Ron P July 13, 2022 0 Likes 104 Views

Am I praying enough? Am I praying ”the right way”? Am I praying for what I want, or for what I actually need? For me, I used to pray ”scripted” prayers. I didn’t really pray from my heart. Today, I try to have an ongoing conversation with God all day long. For me, I feel more connected to the presence of the Holy Spirit when I just ”talk” to God. For me, it feels more relational. That relationship than helps me to have more meaningful relationships with the people in my life, and with those I come across each day!

It’s an Inside Job!

Mark Farley July 13, 2022 0 Likes 116 Views

**As long as we do OUR part willingly….**

***People who are living with grace, joy, and peace have that happy glow about them.***

What I have learned is that they get this glow from the happiness that exists inside of them.

**It’s not from winning the lottery or being a millionaire, or even having those material things that we feel at times we just have to have.**

Yes, those things bring a different kind of happiness.

***It’s from knowing that, no matter what, they are covered, protected, and blessed by God.***

His Holy Spirit lives in each of us and that is how He is able to bless us abundantly.

***Our part is to merely seek and do His will on a daily basis. In living our faith in a way that others can see, we are allowing God to work through us to help others.***

**Are you doing your part?…**

Check your experience. … .

***“We are going to know a new freedom and a new happiness.” Big Book pg 83***

*Lord, thank You for the abundance of blessings in our lives. Please continue to let our hearts see that happiness comes from the Holy Spirit living in each of us, AMEN.*

***“And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.” 2 Corinthians 9:8***

Have a blessed day Y’all!

***Please help us help others!***

What lil’ “g” gods do you worship?

Mark Farley July 12, 2022 0 Likes 158 Views

**Foreign gods of today…**

***What do you worship?***

Believe it or not, some folks blindly serve another god in the form of money, work, or material possession.

Heck, some of us might even worship another human; like a movie star, or athlete, or even obsess on a personal relationship.

***Now don’t get me wrong, it’s great to have nice things and healthy personal relationships, but are we allowing those things and persons to become our gods?***

**Do we spend a large amount of time focusing our thoughts, energies, and efforts attempting to please or serve them?**

***I am a firm believer in the spiritual principle that your heart exists where your thoughts reside…***

Check your experience…

***“God either is or He isn’t. What was our choice to be?” Big Book pg. 53***

*Lord, let us focus our thoughts on Your will and not fall into false worship of the people, places, and things around us, AMEN.*

***“The Lord alone led him; no foreign god was with him.” Deuteronomy 32:12***

It’s Just a Moment in Time

Mark Farley July 11, 2022 0 Likes 156 Views

**If you are going through hell…keep on going…**

Back in Sacramento, years ago, ol’ Dick B. used to say in the AA meetings,..

**“Don’t turn a bad moment into a bad day.”**

**I have held onto that thought over the years and found that when I am in times of stress or struggle, this thought gets me through it.**

While some situations last longer than a moment,

I have learned that I am not facing it alone and that when I turn my troubles and fears over to the Lord, not only does my day go better, but also, the situation usually resolves itself and leaves me in a better place as a result.

**Are you allowing bad moments to become bad days? …**

Check your experience….

***“In this book, you read again and again that faith did for us what we could not do for ourselves.” Big Book pgs 70-71***

***Lord, what times of uncertainty, stress, or struggle come, remind my heart that You are with me and I can turn it over to Your care and not let it ruin my whole day, AMEN.***

“I know how great this makes you feel, even though you have to put up with every kind of aggravation in the meantime. Pure gold put in the fire comes out of it proved pure; genuine faith put through this suffering comes out proved genuine.” 1 Peter 1:6-7

Have a blessed day Y’all!
