What am I investing in?

“A beautiful reputation is more to be desired than great riches, and to be esteemed by others is more honorable than to own immense investments.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭22:1‬ ‭TPT‬‬

Am I exhausting myself in investing in things of this world that I will leave behind, or am I investing in things that really matter?
In the end, all that matters is God and people

Risks and Rewards

Mark Farley July 21, 2022 0 Likes 266 Views

**Keep walking the Path….**

***It seems no matter what the reward is, there is some form of risk involved.***

From a child first learning to trust gravity to ride a bike, to the risks we take as adults with relationships, finances, employment, and other worldly things,…

**We have to risk something to gain something else.**

Risk is part of our Earthly experience and a great exercise for us to build and practice our faith as we seek the reward.

***Sometimes we hit bumps in the road but if we keep our hearts and eyes focused on our goal, our risk does not become ruled by fear and our faith carries us through.***

**Measure your risk with your faith and see how it helps!**

As always, don’t take it from me, rather….

Check your experience…

***“Faith has to work twenty-four hours a day in and through us, or we perish.” Big Book pg. 16***

*Lord, let our hearts know that our risk, supported by our faith will carry us through to the reward, AMEN*

***“So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you must endure many trials for a little while.” 1Peter 1:6***

Have a blessed day Y’all!

Love Never Fails

**Love is all you need…**

We have answers and solutions and fixes for just about everything imaginable these days.

The internet, TV, and most brick-and-mortar retail stores have the ability to sell packaged solutions to most any need.

I like that “flabs to abs” idea, but I hear tell that ultimately it really requires providing the willingness and effort to eat right and exercise.

I am sure it’s the same for most any other challenge or situation we face. To get better it requires our participation and willingness to either change or participate.

***The bottom line involved in any interaction, positive or negative, is that spiritual emotion or state of being that we all are born with, which is love.***

If we can bring our love to the situation or task at hand, the Holy Spirit within us can then participate with us and guide us to the healthy outcome we seek.

**Are you bringing your spiritual love to your situations?..**

Check your experience…

***“Patience, tolerance, understanding and love are the watchwords.” Big Book pg. 118***

*Lord, let us bring the love in our hearts, supplied by Your Spirit into every situation we face, both good and bad, AMEN.*

***“Love takes everything that comes without giving up. Love believes all things. Love hopes for all things. Love keeps on in all things. Love never comes to an end.” 1 Corinthians 13: 7-8***

Have a blessed day Y’all!

Seek and you will find

Ron P July 19, 2022 0 Likes 340 Views

What am I seeking today? Am I looking for things that are negative, or am I seeing all the blessings that are around me? I often struggle with seeing the good in my life. For me, it is sometimes easier to focus on the negative, than to experience the goodness of God! I have to create good habits of focusing on the positive. One way I can do that is by naming 3-4 things I’m grateful for each day. Writing them down in a journal is a great way to do that! I need to ”stop and smell the roses” throughout each day! Seek the goodness of God each day, and I will always find it!

Relationships

Ron P July 18, 2022 0 Likes 330 Views

For me, I truly believe that my relationships are the most challenging, yet most rewarding experiences that I will ever have and go through in my life! For me, in my marriage, am I fighting about it, or am I fighting for it? Am I trying to win the battles, or am I trying to win the relationship? I struggle with wanting to always be right. Thinking my ways are the best ways! Being prideful! Those are times when I find myself fighting about the relationship. If I can swallow my pride, and realize that we want the same things in our marriage, but that we just have different ways of achieving them, neither way being right or wrong, just different, than I can continue to fight for our relationship! I have to have that mindset in all my relationships. In the end, all that matters is God and people!

Is There a Wisdom Ap?

Mark Farley July 18, 2022 0 Likes 263 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!

Help is Always Near

Mark Farley July 17, 2022 0 Likes 251 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***
