Imagine if we only did spend more time on them things that actually would benefit us, grow us and change us…them things that help us to rise up above our circumstances, them things that help us to conquer our fear, to set us free from depression, anxiety, and imagine if we did cast our every care upon the Lord, knowing that He cares and loves us so..1 Peter 5:7…imagine if we did spend more time reading the word of God…for it is only by the word of God that things begin to change, for Gods word is that lamp unto our feet and that light unto our pathway..Psalm 119:105…and imagine if we would spend as much time talking to Jesus as we do involved in all of them other routines that we engage in daily…such as our phone conversations, texting, emailing, Facebook, twitter, instagram…them things they’re okay, don’t get me wrong, but they don’t change us. and they don’t benefit us in any way…other than a lot of times they may help us to talk about someone else’s life, and maybe even get us distracted from being thankful for our life and compare ours to the life of another, and then end up in a spirit of jealousy and envy…which in turn leads to absolutely nothing beneficial to any of us….see everything we look at, everything we watch, everything we hear…simply everything we do needs to be growing us and drawing us closer to the Lord…if it’s not, than we need to let them things go….we all can choose daily what we do…and how we spend our time…as for me I pray that I spend mine wisely, and not foolish…I pray what I do daily is helping me to grow and to be more what the Lord would have for me to be….see we gotta guard ourselves, and help ourselves to rise up….we never change until we get tired of that  old man so to speak that we see when looking in the mirror every morning…and the only person whom can change you, is you…cause faith without works is dead..James 2:17…we have to put feet on what were wanting…we have to put forth an effort to do better…and to be better!…so let us help us…with the help of the Lord…let us make time, and take time to pray, to read our bibles, and to do them things that will forever change us and our lives…them things that are needful, and them things that are meaningful …In Jesus’ name I do ask and pray! Amen and Amen!! Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
