Observe Than Action

I recently  mentioned  how important 

listening is even for us that love to  

talk. Observation  is another good  

thing before taking any action. 

Those of us who can hear from God

observe, listen before talking is good.

Action goes together with talking  

to someone. 

At the gym there is  a  couple around

my age who walk the track often. I 

have seen and said hello for the two

years I have been going there. A few 

times we have had short conversations 

as well.  He looks very healthy however

his wife doesn't  so much. I  have been

observing the last several days. She

did look a little  better  on  Tuesday. 

She walks at a good speed though her

legs don't  seem right. Mostly  it is

the look on her face.

The thing is she has very little  expression 

on her face so she must have some kind

of illness. Right now I  am  praying for her

while observing. I  hope at some point I

will be able  to  speak with him about my

concerns for her. I  just hope they are

able to continue coming. 

I  will be observing others as well.Even

those who are healthy  looking on the

outside. There are several  people  I 

speak to on a regular basis. I am getting 

to know some names of those in my 

classes. 

I encourage  you  in keeping  up your

good  work and the purpose  you are

here. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Visions and Dreams

When it comes to  our  gifts some will

be able to have visions and dreams.

In the book of Joel he mentioned so

in chapter  two.

If you have any visions or dreams write 

them down. You may know who they are

for. When I  am  ministering  with others 

often they see visions  for the person we

are ministering  to.  They ask the person 

whether  it seems right to them.

I am sure most everyone have heard about

psychics and fortune-tellers. Be careful 

with them. They may  have  a  gift but it

is false or at least  often from the darkside.

Those  with visions  and dreams will give 

glory to God and not  themselves.  It will 

be encouraging  to those you have visions 

and dreams for. Amen!  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Married Couples

Married  couples  have a powerful  purpose 

and uniquely  together as we are as individuals. 

Couples are not only come together for love

and to have children  but much more.

 Mark 10:8-9 says two become one flesh. 

Jesus  Christ  sent people in two to 

minister in the world. Couples together 

are more powerful than one. Man isn't 

to be alone either.

Late Sunday afternoon I was able to

speak into five couples what God

intended for their purposes together.

It was not only a wonderful experience 

however getting  to  know them in a

short period. 

These five couples are involved in a

class at Harborview Fellowship in

Gig Harbor Washington  on Monday 

nights for 12 weeks to strengthen 

their marriages. There is like 33 couples 

in this class. 

If you are married you and your spouse

are powerful  together. May you remember 

when times become  difficult. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Seek and Find

Another important order in

our life purpose is to seek

and find. There maybe more

to find in your purpose. The

same thing for those you 

may mentor as well.

The more you are doing with

your gifts and talents another

gift or talent or both maybe 

added. 

If there is some gift or talent

you would like to have ask

God for it. We all have areas

we lack in that we would love

to be better at. You request

you may receive too. This is

part of seeking and finding.

May you have a wonderful day

in whatever manner you go

about it.  ❤❤❤❤

Over Again

When we take  a  new step we should  

at the end of the day think how it went.

Though taking another step is important 

we ought to  know how we feel  about 

the one we took.

We take another step even though we

may feel  we could  have done better 

in the last one. We can go over the

steps at any time.

It reminds me of my exercise classes

at the gym. Many of the other participants 

have been doing for some time. It is

obvious  since their moves look precise 

all the time.  On occasion  they may mess 

up but not often. This is how we should

life all the time.  Amen! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Adjusted Day

I think what makes life interesting 

one day can be much different 

than the day before.

On Thursday  morning it was raining 

at my place whenI was leaving for

the gym. Driving in five minutes  there 

is a little  bit of snow.  I arrived at the

gym even a little bit more.

My first class there were about half

the people.  Local schools were two

hours delayed and no daycare at the

gym.

One young woman  brought her three

young daughters. The youngest I knew

didn't  want  to  be there.  She was

content during class watching  her 

video while her older sisters were 

drawing. 

When class was over the youngest 

was not interested  in  doing anything 

more there.The young mother asked

if they wanted to go swimming. The

youngest  certainly  did not. Lol!

She let them know her disproval.

So not sure whether her sisters went 

swimming  or not. I would be surprised 

whether she did. 

The second class I  took in the gym

which was yoga. More people  there

being an older crowd and the snow 

had been melting. Not the normal 

classI take however I wasn't  sure 

that class would have many show

up. I  figured to learn something 

from yoga as well.  I feel  much I

could do at home as well.

Friday morning  it is above freezing 

however it is not raining at the moment.

The gym could get some snow if 

precipitation happened.  I will take 

my normal Friday classes then I am

meeting  someone  for lunch. Not 

sure what else we will  do.

The weekend  the temperatures are 

supposed to be a bit warmer and we

might even see some sun.

I hope you  are  having  a  good  day

and your weekend plans go forward.

May your purpose  continue one step 

at a time.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

The Next Step

Originally  my title  here was 

there is much more instead 

it is the next step. They are 

both about the same thing.

When we discover or hear

about our life purpose each

day we take the next step. 

For each of us it is different 

or could be the same all

depending where you are

right now. 

My next step today in part 

telling you there is a next 

step and each day there

is a new one.

Today I  figure since I  go 

to the gym most every

mornings  I am not only

going to know more about

myself I  am  going to know

more about those who I see.

Many of them in my classes

or on the track or wherever 

else I go are often the same

people.  I may meet someone 

new. Some I know their names

while others I only know faces.

Doesn't  this sound like a good

step to take today. Using this

as an example for you. Enjoy

the step you take today. If more

than one that is good  as well. 

❤️❤️❤️❤️

What Is Your Purpose

There are many layers to

our life purpose.

The top of the list is to

glorify God and ask him

what his desires for your life.

When you become a parent

your purpose is to raise up

your children in the way they

should go.

As a child it is for you to love

God and discover your gifts 

and talents.

When you become an adult

not only will you be a parent

you will use the gifts and 

talents you learned you will

use them for God's glory.

The gifts will be used at church

and those around you. Wherever

God has you going. Talents will

be at your workplace or whatever

your vocation is. 

If you haven't learned your gifts

until you are an adult it is not

too late. I am using my gifts

now than ever before. It would

have been nice to do so earlier 

on in life however this had to

be God's plan too. Other words

never too late. 

Often our talents go before our

gifts do. We have more time 

later on using our gifts.  The

Important thing is today is using

both your talents and gifts. 

Another thing is it can take others

a while that you are special and 

you have talents and gifts. Pray 

to God on how to use them all.

❤❤❤❤

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.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️
