Blessings............


I have decided that today is a new day. It is the first day of the rest of my life. I feel like I did with a new home. "Do I paint first...hum, maybe put up new curtains and then decide on the color scheme, lets see...do I want a comforter or a quilt for my bed, and I can't forget the furniture!"



We have been given choices in this life. We can choose to tap out when the enemy knocks us down or we can fight with all of our might. We can live in depression or we can get up, wipe ourselves off and go forward. We can live in a dirty house or we can clean it up. We can walk in sin or we can walk in His grace.



God is about to split the eastern sky. To come back and take us home....where we can rest without worry. I want to live out the rest of my days on this earth to their fullest. I want to smile as I am amazed at the elderly lady that walks in the morning, like clock work. Always there, and always at the same time. I want to sing to the top of my lungs when my favorite song is played on the radio, and laugh as people watch me with that "she's crazy" look on their face. I want to reminisce and share stories of my past with my children, family and friends. I want to dance in the rain, in the living room, in the drive way and anywhere else I can find a place to "break it down".....speaking of my back. lol! I want to live life on this earth for God, and enjoy somethings for myself along the way.

So, with all of that said. I choose....LIFE & BLESSINGS. I choose the right to smile, to laugh, to get out of bed without a heavy burden. He has made me the "head and not the tail". He has blessed with with "spiritual blessings". He is God, my Savior, my defender, my best friend.

I turn my back to curses and to death. God is my life, my blessing. I choose Him. This road is not an easy one to follow. It is defiantly not for whimps, but is IS for me.

What road are you going to follow? The easy one that is embedded with curses and death or Gods way? I pray that every follower of this blog knows God as their friend. If not , PLEASE let me know. I want to talk to you, to pray with you. Life on this earth is quickl y coming to an end. It is not the time to play.



Deuteronomy 30:19
19 This day I call .heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live.
