Answers to Mentoring

Begin Mentoring 

Most child with a great gift or talent
start at a young age.

The child might be coached in a
sport or in a instrument by a parent
who might have the same talent.
The parent might be coaching others 
as well.  

My recommendation  would be to find
someone else to  help in mentoring them.
There  are  other aspects of life these
children could have someone  to  talk to.

Other children should have a mentor 
when they reach around the age of 12.
This all depends on the child. 

Being a mentor I  think a teenager could
be one again depending on the person.
As adults we all should be mentors. Not
only to children but to one another.  👍👍

Change Up

It looks like on Wednesday we
might have snow. I expect not
a lot however show winter has
arrived.

Not a lot means it will not
stay around for long either.

North of where I live will get
more snow than I. Those who
ski can do so now.

I was asked yesterday whether
I was getting ready for
Christmas. I said it isn't December 
yet and that is when I get started. 
So a couple more days.

Like October November went
by fast and I expect December
will to. Stay comfortable and
safe. 😊😊😊

Plugging Away

Our life and purpose can be discouraging 
at times. The  results  are  not what we
are expecting. All we can do is keep 
plugging away.

We must realize  our purpose  is  not 
really  about us but others. At some
point those we spend  time  with will
realize  it or they already  have but we
don't  see it.  This is okay too.

May you be blessed  today. Remember 
to we have others who we learn from
in their purpose.  Might be the time
if you haven't done before to let them 
know. They may return the favor.  ❤️❤️❤️

Good Day

We must realize first waking
up is a blessing to us all.
Life is not assured of us 
every day.

Encourage to do the work of
the Lord. Number one love
him and love others.

Have a smile on your face.
Say hello to all others even
if that is all you can say.

I notice not everyone will
respond but you do your
part.

Bless you and be safe.
😉😉😉

Saying the Following ¹

I am a good  person in the way 
God says I  am.

I believe what God says about me
and I  no longer believe what
others may have. I  no longer
accept  word curses people 
have  put on even as a young
child.

I believe I  am  the person God 
created me to be and live the
purpose he has for me. Amen!
❤️❤️❤️

Family

It was so good to have 
Thanksgiving with my
cousin and her family.

We not only had Turkey
dinner we talked about
family. We prayed for
them as well. 

Today I will be heading back
home. It is about three hours
depending on traffic. Since
still holiday I am hoping the
freeway won't be to heavy.

May you all be blessed and
this be a joyful holiday season.
😊😊😊

Happy Thanksgiving

I want to wish everyone
a Happy Thanksgiving.

The tradition is to have
Turkey, mash potatoes 
with gravy, and stuffing.
Of course, you are vegetarian
or vegan you substitute.

So I say now officially 
holiday season. I know
a radio station already
playing Christmas songs
but I wait until December.

Have a great day everyone.

The Day Before

Here we are the day before  Thanksgiving 
here in the United  States. 

For me the holiday  season begins on 
Thursday. I  know stores have already 
began the season. 

I  am  not sure  which Thanksgiving  or
Christmas is my favorite so I  guess
it is a tie. Both holidays have great 
meaning.

We must be thankful and gracious for 
our lives, purpose, gifts and talents.
We may have lost someone this year
or our health might not  be what we
like, however,  waking  up each morning 
is a blessing.

To those of you outside  of  United States 
I am thankful  for  you to especially family. 
❤️❤️❤️

Be Strong

Often we look at our weaknesses 
and failures. Actually  we can be
strong  in those area.

Why? We give them over to Jesus 
Christ. He can be the strong one 
in those areas.

Blessings  to  you  this fine day.
❤️❤️❤️

Sad News

Last night I  heard  one of my best 
friends passed away early  in the
morning.

I hadn't  seen him a lot as an adult 
which is sad news too. I think the 
last time I  saw him was a couple 
years ago.

I know the memories of him will
live with me for the rest of my life
just like family. 

I look forward  to  service  to remember 
him and see other old friends  and
new ones as well.

I say goodbye  old friend  you were 
special  and one of the great guys.
I enjoyed the great times together. 
❤️❤️❤️

Hello Sunday

Wish you all a happy  Sunday.  Those
of you in USA  a happy  Thanksgiving 
on Thursday.

We all  have a lot to  be thankful.
Even when  things are not going well.
Waking up in the morning  makes
a blessing. 

I  will be busy going to church twice.
Having prayer ministry  late afternoon 
well as church service this morning. 

Much love to you all. May your heart
be joyful.  ❤️❤️❤️

Being Busy

This time of the year life gets so busy. 
I  want you to  know  how much I appreciate 
your time here.

I  am  sure  your reading here whenever 
you can will put a dent into making your
life better. I  do this with all my heart 
and love.

I know many I am sure may have lost
a loved one this year  and my  prayers 
are with you. Though it be coming up
three years since my mother passed away 
I  still  missed. I appreciate you all during
the time of her passing  especially with
covid-19 happening and changing  our
lives.

Happy holidays  as the these days get close.
❤️❤️❤️❤️

Be Great

Yesterday  I  was  the greater 
version  of myself. 

We were created to  be great. 
Wouldn't  it be nice  if we 
encouraged  each other in
this way.

A baseball  hitter may strikeout
three times in a game than hits
a home run or a double to win the
game. He did a great thing though
he failed more often. We should see
each other the same way. ❤️❤️❤️

It's Ok

Have your belief and faith is ok.
You are not to judge others but
they shouldn't judge you either. 
Only you can judge yourself. 

If the person  dislikes or 
hates you move on.

Another person  is not that
important if they don't  care
for you. Move on to those
who do.  ❤️❤️❤️

A Journal

I met a couple at coffee  shop on Tuesday. 
They are going to get married next November. 
They are very  nice and cute together.

I spent my time  chatting with him though
began with her. She was writing  in her journal.
I  asked her if she ever thought of blogging.
She said that she tried  blogging, however,  
preferred  doing a journal which she has done
since she was ten.

What is interesting  she shares her writing in
her journal  with her sister. So over the several  
minutes talking to her fiancée she spent writing 
in journal. 

Even if  you  don't  want  to  share with the world
journal  is a good idea to share your thoughts of 
the day or week.  Whatever  time you have.
❤️❤️❤️

Halfway Mark

It is hard to believe  this November 15
already. I  thought October went by fast.

This despite the fact I  have  had a cold
for two weeks. Christmas  will be here
in a flash. 

When asked how are your day is going
just say I  am  glad  to  be  here another
day.

Blessings  to  you all. May your day
be bright. Amen. ❤️❤️😊😊👍👍

Happy Holidays

I have mentioned  in year's  past 
the holiday  season  is  a good  time 
to share your life with others. 

Of course, you will  spend time 
with family  and  friends, however, 
are others  who could  use your
help.

When you are out shopping  for
gifts a good time  to talk with others.
Not easy since they are looking for
the gifts . You can always  ask them 
what they are look for as far as a 
gift goes.

It is interesting  because  some people 
don't  want to talk while others do.
Find the one who wa to to talk. Doesn't 
mean you stay away from those who
don't  want to talk.

Happy  holidays and enjoy your shopping.
❤️❤️❤️

Past and Present

My advice for whatever  it is worth 
when mentoring or talking with
people  speak about the present 
and the past.

People maybe interested in what 
you did in the past,  however, what
you are doing  now is just as important. 

A friend gave me good advice and
that is to keep it short as well. People 
today are not into long conversations.
At least not on one thing anyway. Look
to see if they are engaging. If  not turn to
something  else.

Last but not least let them talk about
themselves.  Though they can learn
from you people  want to talk about
them and what is going on their lives.
This way you can use your gifting to
help them out if necessary. 

That's  it.  ❤️❤️❤️

Cold and Brisk

Last  week  we had rain and wind.
This time cold and brisk. 

This week until  next weekend the
temperatures between  35 and 45.
Pretty  much  winter around here 
though may get colder though.

Next weekend  expected to warm up 
several degrees and rain. I am sure
we can use the rain, however,  I like
it when the sun comes out for even
a few minutes.

May your purpose  reign and you
make a difference  in other people's 
lives. Amen! ❤️❤️❤️

A Good Reminder

No matter  how many times  to say
so it is important  we all have a
mentor or a good  friend. 

This is someone we feel  comfortable 
with. A person  we can tell  anything 
and know we won’t  be judged.
Also, someone  who  won’t  tell
another soul.

You may not even have to  seek 
this person out. They maybe  right
there without  you knowing already.

Have a wonderful  and blessed weekend. 
❤️❤️❤️

Holiday Season Here

Do you have plans for the holiday 
season already?

When do you begin Christmas  shopping?
I am  sure there are those who have
already done so.

My challenge  is for you to meet someone 
new. Buy a present for each other.

I know not an easy  task  since for some
it is hard to meet  someone new.

Number one thing is to pray and ask God
what he would like you to do this year
for the holiday season you have never 
done before.

This is it.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Adding To Our Gifts

When we are faithful to our gifts
God will add another gift or more.

In my case he has given me the
heart to speak to others especially 
those I have never met before or 
don't know very well.  In some 
cases I  may never see again or 
casually.

Another example a person  might
enjoy and have the talent of singing. 
The problem  is  they have hard time
being in front of people on stage.
God may give you the gift to be able
to stand on stage. 

Our personality and  character  have
a lot to do with our success  or failure. 
We may need assistance  to be helped.
❤️❤️❤️

Social Media

Much like everything else surrounding 
our lives social  media has its positives 
and negatives.

I believe we can learn from social media 
as long as we don't  allow it to consume.
Otherwords, decide how much time to
spend on it and the internet in general.

View those who can encourage you
and not those that  are  negative. Don't 
let it be a place to be because your lonely.
There are those  out there on social media 
to scam you.

Enjoy your friends  on social media for a
period of time. In person  interaction is better.
Choose the time of day to go on for a period
and leave it at that. Best to  you. 👍👍

Look Into Ourselves

Often we  look at the gifts and talents
as well as  how the person looks to.

We should never be jealous of others
though understandable.

Other people  maybe jealous of us
without us realizing  so.

Our gifts and talents belong to us
uniquely.  We may share some of
them with others but no one has 
the same full package.

Our purpose  is  to  share the gifts
and talents with the world.  ❤️❤️❤️

Not Easy

I have to say not easy to get over
being sick. I  guess is what happens
when the weather  changes from
summer to winter.

I  am not here to feel  sorry for myself.
I hope  your health is good and you have 
a wonderful  holiday  season.

Amazing  to  think 2023 is about here
and what plans to make. Of course, 
circumstances  happen  that  can change
all things. Most important  is  taking one
day at a time. 😊😊❤️❤️👍👍

Friday Night Winds

Here  in Western Washington  we  had 
the wind blow hard along with rain. It 
means winter is here.

The power went off late in the evening 
for only a moment.  Not sure about 
anywhere  else. The Washington Huskies 
football  game against was delayed as well 
since they had to wait about 25 minutes 
for the lights to  come back on.  I  am  glad 
I  didn't  have wait that long. I  am  sure 
some people  were already  in  bed.

Certainly  been  a long week having my 
head  cold. The doctor  wanted me to take
a covid test so I  did which was negative.

I look forward forward  to  this cold to be
over so I  can  join the world  once again.
I  hope you all have a healthy and good
weekend  while I  hope to be done with
this cold soon. 👍👍❤️❤️

Proclaim

In the Old Testament the prophet Isaiah chapter 61 
he proclaimed he was anointed by God to give 
good news to the poor, bind up the broken hearted
 and set the captive free among other things. Jesus 
Christ said the same in Luke 4.

You may know neither one's life ended well. 
Today we need people say the same thing. 
With the election coming up there are those 
saying negative things. Also, saying we must 
come out and vote. This is true, however, we 
know to there are those who will vote the party
line. I say vote your conscience and not what 
your party says. We need people to stand up 
even pay the price. 😊😊

Another Day

Since I  have  a cold and it doesn't 
seem to  want to go away I have 
to relax  again.

I certainly  miss seeing  people
out and about.  I  guess ok to do
so except  being sick.

When I  feel healthy  again means
I can continue  on. Like most people 
it is hard to  believe it is now November. 
Six weeks from my trip to DC and 
VIrginia. Wow.! Take it easy  all. ❤️❤️❤️

What to Do

When it comes to our life purpose 
it is important  to  exercise our gifts 
and talents.  

It is just like exercising to keep  our 
bodies in shape. The more we do 
our gifts and talents the more we
are in shape. ❤️❤️❤️

What Do You Call It

I came down with a small cold on
Sunday.  I  am  not sure  call it an
obstacle  or inconvenience. 

I  was hoping to  go to a dance party 
on Halloween  night but instead stayed
home to rest and relax.

I  am  sure  there will  be  a few will 
ask why I  wasn't  there. I am  having
some tea and an orange right now.

Life goes on and  see where things 
leave. ❤️❤️❤️
