Sunday Thought
Last Sunday I talked about criticizing and complaining, and then again on Thursday talked about failing. I know I fail daily in this. It is so easy to get caught up on the “why does it happen this way?” or “why does my spouse or child do this?” or even “I am so fat.” It takes effort, and it is exhausting.
It is a moment by moment conscience decision to not be negative in thought or to speak negative things. Again, I am feeling convicted because I feel that all I have done is complained lately. I know that I end up feeling worse if I continue in that thought process.
It has been raining, and storming most of the past week. Not have sunshine physically takes a toll on my spirits. I feel as though my thoughts bleed that way as well. I should be grateful for the rain, but we have had enough for a while I think. Like mother nature will listen to me? Ha. But think about it. If we are constantly raining on our thoughts with criticism or complaining it will bring us down. I think it saddens me, and I don’t like it.
Trying again. Grateful for the bits of sunshine yesterday and today.
“Do everything without grumbling and arguing, so that you may be blameless and pure, children of God.” – Philippians 2:14-15

Take Your Dog to Work Day
Working from home this morning.
Dexter is happy about this too. ❤️ Did you take your pet to work today?
Happy Friday!
Thursday
This. Week. Ugh.
Tried to complete Sunday without a complaint or criticism. Have tried each day, and am failing.
But today is Thursday…another opportunity to get it right.
Blessings.
Storms
Happy First Day of Summer.
I live in the Panhandle of Florida. We don’t normally get many storms, but apparently we are getting two in row in the next few weeks.
Mainly rain. Lots of rain. We have already had our share recently. The mushrooms are in bloom in the yard, and just keeping up with the grass is difficult. People are mowing regardless of the if the grass is dry enough kind of days.
So trying to stay dry…
Happy Wednesday!
Sunday Thought
Feeling convicted.
“Today’s challenge to anyone who’s game: Go all day till falling asleep tonight without complaining or criticizing a single time. God, fill us!” – Beth Moore
Maybe one of these…but both! Goodness. Okay—Sunday, bring it on!
Blessings!
Sunday Thought
Trust me and don’t be afraid, for I am your Strength and Song. Do not let fear dissipate your energy. Instead, invest your energy in trusting Me and singing My Song. the battle for control of your mind is fierce, and years of worry have made you vulnerable to the enemy. Therefore, you need to be vigilant in guarding your thoughts. do not despise this weakness in yourself, since I am using it to draw you closer to me. Your constant need for Me creates an intimacy that is well worth all the effort. You are not alone in this struggle for your mind. My Spirit living within you is ever ready to help in this striving. Ask Him to control your mind; He will bless you with Life and Peace. – Isaiah 12:2; Romans 8:6 – Jesus Calling by Sarah Young
This is June 11th’s reading. Trust me… that is really I all needed today. Peace.
Blessings.

Friends
Happy National Best Friends Day!
“A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself — and especially to feel, or not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at any moment is fine with them. That’s what real love amounts to — letting a person be what he really is.” — Jim Morrison
Blessings.
Magazines
Another one of my indulgences are magazines. I love them. I used to subscribe to many of them, now I just pick up one or two when I am at the store.
I keep them in a basket by my chair, and will read them and then reread them.
I love them. I used to get them on my tablet. It really isn’t the same as flipping through the pages.
What are some of your indulgences?
Blessings.
