I think we all need to keep a journal..for I do believe that there wonderful and so great to have..and I’m not talking about recording the bad things that happen in our lives..but I’m speaking of recording them good days..them days as to where you just smile..because your day has been so great..and I believe that when them bad days happen that we can go and take out that book of remembrance of all them good days that we’ve had..then will be able to get ourselves up and encouraged on them not so good days that can come along and do come along in our lives..and in each of our lives…so in the end we help ourselves because we know that we will get through whatever it is that life is handing to us..because we are victorious guys..and Jesus loves us ever so much…so when life hands us them lemons we will rise and make us some good ole fashioned lemonade..or when life isn’t all peaches and cream for us..we will still have us a great day…because we know that this too shall pass whatever it is that is happening and or taking place…for the bible tells us to remember all that the Lord has done for us..Deuteronomy 8:2..how He has lead us and kept us..it tells to not forget all of the benefits of the Lord..Psalm 103:2..for it’s funny at how when life is happening to us..we somehow lose thought of all that the Lord has done…we forget all the blessings..but guys I tell ya when we remember the goodness of the Lord..we rise..and we stand tall…no matter what, because we know that the Lord is for us and that the Lord is with us..and that our God is faithful…and always on time in our lives…so get to writing down all of them blessings..all of them good days in your life…all of them things that just make ya smile..and smile big..for we never want to not help ourselves…and we help ourselves by choosing to remember the good in our lives..other than dwelling on the bad that has happened to us..instead looking and dwelling on the good..Amen..for we have to help ourselves guys..and we do that by renewing our minds with good thoughts..Romans 12:2..not thinking of the wrongs..or the past..or what happened..or all of them unfair things that has happened to us…but instead thinking on all of them good things that has happened..Amen…all of them wonderful times that the Lord has blessed and showed up for you..so the word says whatsoever things are of a good report if there be any virtue or if there be any praise for us to think on them things..Philippians 4:8..because that mind of ours can either make us or break us..and my prayer is that it’s making us into what Christ would have for us to be..that we are growing in our walks with the Lord..so get yourself a journal guys..and get to writing down them good things that happen and come your way in life..and when them not so good or fair days come your way..just pull out that journal and begin to read..for you will be encouraged by it..and you will be blessed by it..and it will help you and help you tremendously…for where the mind goes the man follows…for the word says as a man thinks so is he..Proverbs 23:7..so let us all begin to think, read and dwell on all of them good things in our lives..let us help ourselves to the best of our abilities..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
