Most Important Thing

Regardless  what has happened  in
your life up to this moment God  
loves you more than anything. 

He created you for a purpose 
and a destiny however his love
is at the top of your chart.

Nomatter what you do this day 
or forward doesn't  change how
he feels about you.

Does feel  important  to be
loved by your family and 
friends however they are
not perfect. They may not 
love you as you would
desire. God loves you as
you are however with all
you have he will change 
you in the way you want.
Your  heart will change 
for others. It doesn't mean
you  will be perfect however 
you will have more peace 
then ever before.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Those Who Protect Your Destiny

Those who really love you will protect
you in your destiny  which equals 
your purpose. 

On Sunday my pastor  said  that you
the people  that love me will protect
me from deception and live out 
my destiny.  

Those you love let them know you 
are with them at all times no matter
what and you are watching their backs
and they are watching yours too.

We can't  make mistakes that will 
alter our lives and those close to us.
Our hearts  can hurt from prior
experiences  we will try things that
will backfire. We may have desires 
that we can't  control  and we reason
why we fall for it. 

Live a life of pure love and be an
example for those around you. Amen!
❤️❤️❤️❤️

Go At Your Own Pace

In my exercises  classes at the gym
they say to to enjoy yourself  while
going at your own pace. Be careful 
of any body pains. Also, drink plenty 
of water.

This all sounds good for life in general 
doesn't  it. In class it is easy to go the
same pace as the instructor  especially  
if you have been  used to it in the past.
Someone  who is used to going slower 
it is fine too. We all should now how
our bodies work.

At the end  of  class wee start slowing
down which we include stretching as
well.  This allows us to be closer  to  our 
normal pulse rate. If you are working or
doing any activity and you know your 
rate is high slow down before taking 
a break.  We all need to take a break
once in a while. 

What a great way to live our lives. 
Another tip and encouragement.  
May you  enjoy your day getting 
ready for the week  ahead. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Our Homes

We all have a big data base in our 
brain. We all remember  the  first 
house we lived in and the houses 
we have bought as well. They have
all been positive  or negative  depending 
on our experience.

My brother  and  sister have lived 
elsewhere  much longer than they
did here growing  up  however have
fond memories of the house and
the town.

The town has more than doubled 
in size since we were kids.  In fact 
North Gig Harbor  is  larger than 
Gig Harbor  is. North Gig Harbor 
was all woods until early 2000. 
It is where I  go to the gym and many
stores as well as homes. They built
an elementary school a couple years
ago so those children living there
would not be shipped out to another
school that was overcrowded.

Our brain has such a big database 
all of our memories are stored there
though we might not remember them
all. Those memories  make the best
and worst of us. If we have issues 
like anger when a memory comes
to make us realize where the anger
comes from is to forgive those who
caused the anger.

You may think I am  not going to  
forgive them since they hurt me
so bad and get them off the hook. 
Forgiving them is for your benefit 
not there's.  You may have not seen
them in years or they may have died.
If you have forgiven them there could 
be another reason  the memory has 
come  up. It could help  someone else. 

May you have a wonderful  weekend 
and may you be encouraged. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

A Reminder

I am  sure  I do a lot of reminders. The
one today is freedom  of  speech here
in the United  States. We have a constitution 
and one is having freedom of speech. 

Though we still  have freedom of speech 
it isn't  each to use it these days. What I 
mean is you do have to be careful  in what
you say. At least  it is better than many
countries.   

The number one  thing  we can't  do  is 
threaten the President of the United States.
You can say what you dislike about him
however not threaten bodily harm. It would
be nice to  do the same about everyone.

I know friends that we are losing some
of our freedoms and that is true to some
degree.  With freedom  of speech  still 
have to be careful  what we say. It is
possible  to  lose your job or at least not
get a new job by what  you may express
on social media.  It is the one place you
speak your mind many others can see.

In our world  today what used to be called
hood is now often  called evil and the other
way around. There are groups  out there
would consider  us hateful if  we  don't 
agree with their lifestyle.  As adults  I believe
we have free will  to  do what we want to as
long as it doesn't  hurt someone else.  I  see
it different  as far as children  go. Many 
people  believe children  have the same rights.
In some areas they do however I  don't believe 
the same in all areas. They don't  have the
same capacity as adults  to make some decisions 
and why they are under parental  guidance. 

I don't  speak  out a lot on this  since I  don't 
think this is my purpose however if someone 
ask my opinion  I will  give it.

I feel  sorry  for  those of you who live in countries 
where you don't  have the freedoms as we do. 
May you be blessed today and the weekend.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Power of One

Today I  am  going  to  be hooked on 
a monitor to check my heart  for 24 
hours. Main purpose  is  to  see if 
my heart is continuing to skip. Two
years ago I  had a catheter  ablation 
which took out what are called PVCS
where they are on one side of my
heart. Last year doing the  monitor 
found on another side of my heart
more PVCS. Doctor  said it was OK
to wait. If there still PVCS there than
I  will have the ablation  one again.

We all have things  we do in our 
purpose sharing with  others on a
daily basis.  I am  calling this the
power of one. Most of us share
our lives with our gifts and talents 
with other people everyday  as they 
do  with us too. Anyway  I  challenge 
each one to share one thing with
someone today. It could be a friend
or someone  you meet for the first
time. A lot of people  are  not 
comfortable talking with someone 
they don't  know. If you are one of 
those I challenge you to at least
smile or wave at a stranger. Maybe
they will respond back doing the same
or talking to you. So they strike up
the conversation. It doesn't  have to
be long at all. You might have a new
friend.

Say that one thousand people  read
this post and do this one time. The
person  you do this with someone 
else as well.  Over the day thousands 
of people  will do the power of one.

This is suggestion by the way. Lives
can change with us doing one thing
in our purpose daily.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Looking At Generations

Much of our life purpose  we can look
at generations past and those going
forward in our children  and grandchildren. 

There are both positive  and negative  
about our generational lines. On the
positive  is our gifts and talents are
passed down to us.  We may use 
them in a different  way  since we 
still  are unique.

I have writers on both  sides of my
family. I  use it different  than those 
who have come before. My brother 
Jack does some writing  with his
work as a business  consultant.
He wrote a book for at least one
of his consultant jobs. Two of 
his sons have written  books.
In fact one wrote some plays
as well and does computer 
programming too.

I have a cousin Jennifer who 
wrote a novel and is very good
at writing poetry.  I have other
cousins who do writing and
has published  books as well.
I know we all have other talents
we share and those are our own.

On the negative  side that are
often passed down  as well is
addictions. Also not good behavior 
as well.  In those areas we need to
pray for  ourselves and family they
would cease. This comes down
to strongholds that bind us or 
our children or grandchildren.  So
important  to  leave our lives and
all the future  generations. 

We need to take advantage of our
gifts and talents.  They are the best
of us. We will  make a difference  in 
the world. Amen! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Being A Good Listener

It is a good to be listener whether you 
talk a lot or not. To be effective  speaker
and  living in your purpose listening 
will always help.

As one who enjoys speaking  listening 
isn't  always easy  to  do. Must easier
when the other person  enjoys talking 
awe well.  

Those who don't  talk as much it is a
good idea to find a way to make them 
open up by asking  questions. Those
who don't  talk a lot actually have a lot
to say when given the opportunity.

My dad  wasn't  a big talker however
when he did it was enjoyable time
and I  learned a lot. 

I found to be effective  speaker it is
important  to  change the subject 
several  times.  These days most 
listeners won't  keep attention on 
a particular  subject  long. You 
just look at them how interested 
they are in the subject.

Another thing to be effective is to
a particular  subject.  Learn as much
as you can about the other person. 
This is true when you don't know
them as well.  Someone you know
very well ask them how they are 
doing. 

So talking and listening  go hand in 
hand. Most people  want to talk about
them including  those of us who do
talk a lot. When you do talk it is important 
not to say a lot about your family  unless
they do know them. 

I hope these tips for being a good listener 
as well  as  a talker helps out. Conversation 
is so important.  When you are alone you
can think what you want to say  when you
meet somebody  whether the meeting is
scheduled or not. 

A have a blessed day and may your time
with others will be highly  beneficial for
you and them.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Different Results

 I know there are other blogs or 
websites  that speak  about our
life purpose  as well.  Not sure 
they write about it most every 
day.
I write  from being a Christian 
and from God's  perspective. 
God has a purpose  for each
of our lives because he loves 
us so much. He created us
each uniquely.  

Often we don't  meet our 
purpose because of our sins
and those of others. Also
Satan speaks doubt and 
confusion into our minds
like we are not good enough
or look what you have done.

There are others with different 
opinions what our life purpose
is or should be. Why there is
different results.

There is those in science who
speak  what our life purpose 
should be and then the other
religions besides Christianity 
have their own beliefs in our
life purpose  and  why we are 
where. 

They have some truth and their
results may look good. You
might be able to  use their results
but it is not all God's  perspective. 
They may have part of it but not
the full package.  

We all only see part of what God
says. Since we are not perfect 
after all.  We must ask  him to 
reveal  what our purpose  is. 
Amen! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Rest and Peace

Hello  there it is Sunday. The harassment 
you have had recently  is going to end. 
You will have some rest  and peace which
you haven't  felt for some time.

God is going to show you how  to fight off 
the harassments of the future and he will
give  you other desires you have prayed
for.

Well I  don't  pray. That is true in the
conventional  way you think people 
pray. God knows your thoughts,
desires and motivations.

Next Sunday  you will be thinking and
knowing  there is a change in your life.
God has a purpose  for  you beyond 
what you think at this time. Amen!
❤️❤️❤️❤️

Physical Fitness

An area of our life we need to  
do  more of the older we get 
is physical  fitness. 

Depending  how much time 
you have in a day it is good 
to get some exercise  in every 
day.

Recommended  is at least 20 
minutes of  walking.  You can
do that around your neighborhood.
A good idea to do a little  stretching 
before you go out.

Another thing is to do some jumping
jacks or situps or push-ups. You 
don't  need to do the type  you did
as a child.  You don't  have to spend
a lot of time on it. If you have some
weights and they  don't have to be
heavy either do a few lifting of them
to. 

I know not everyone  enjoys going
to the gym or have the time. So
doing so at home is ok.

Another part of health is eating. It
is recommended to eat the most
at breakfast and lunch. The reason
you use more energy  during the
day and not so much in the evening 
so have a light dinner. If you have 
a good size meal at dinner time
then I  recommend  doing your 
exercises in the evening.

I know a lot of people  like adding
salt to your meal  if it doesn’t have
a lot in it. I personally  don't add
salt and I  have learned to go without. 

Also with salt  don't  eat out often
since most restaurants add a lot of
salt to their food. It is ok to take
some of the food home with you
too. You can eat it the next day or
even two. Recommend  having a 
salad in your meal out too. I would
stay away  from soup since most 
have a lot of salt in them even those
that indicate  low sodium.

Want to have soup I  would say make
your own and limit the salt. Another
thing to look at every food you buy
outside of fruit  and  vegetables on
the content. It will  tell you how many 
calories as well as sodium and sugar.
You have to be careful  since it will be
by serving. For example, bread is listed
by each piece. Most don't have a lot of
sodium however I  look for seven to ten
percent. That is out of the daily requirement.

One last thing if you are a few pounds 
overweight or excessive I would look 
at your legs. If they look a bit swollen 
means you need to cut down your sodium
for sure. It means  that  you  have  fluids
being caused by sodium stored inside.
With less sodium you could easily lose
15 pounds in ten days to three weeks.
Another is to drink more water and fruit
or vegetables.  I try to have fruit in the
afternoon or evening or both. 

My trouble is I store fluid very  easily  so
I have to take medication as well.  I  would
start with water first and less salt to see 
how it goes. I hope you enjoy these tips.
❤️❤️❤️❤️

Being Servants

I realized this morning in one way
or another we are all servants. It is 
included in our life purpose.

Just like a lot of people don't know
they have a purpose the same goes 
being a servant.

I am not saying everyone is a good
servant or have the right motive.
We might be serving for our selfish
gain. 

Our calling or profession includes
servanthood. Those who  are in
ministry are serving others whether
they get paid or not.  In business 
whether the CEO, owner or employee
we are serving  as well. I am saying 
this as being  positive. 

You are a mentor or a volunteer you
are serving others. You are a parent 
you are serving your children. In 
some fashion we are serving someone.

I am here as a servant letting you
know that you have a purpose and
value. You are here for a purpose
beyond what you know. You are
serving well. Amen! ❤❤❤❤

Receiving Compliments

We don't  do what we do to receive 
compliments however always  nice
when we do.

The very least we should say thank
you to someone  each day. In fact
to be positive and reassured we 
should give ourselves a compliment.

What we could do is looking in the
mirror  and say you look mighty
fine today. Since mental health  is 
good we should have a good attitude 
always. Even when life gives us a
raw deal at times it is important to
be positive.  Knowing someone  to
share things when life is tough is
good. 

Give someone  a compliment  today
whether they expect it or not. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
