“So my family and I had just returned from vacation and one of the places we stopped at was the Kennedy Space Center..and I tell ya it was wonderful..if you ever get the chance to go by all means go..it is well worth it..so meaningful..and so full of amazement and wonder for your heart and your mind..Amen..but as we were going through one of the shows..our late J.F. Kennedy was President at the time and as he was giving a speech..and he says we choose to go to the Moon in this decade..and do other things..not because they are easy..but because they are hard..Amen..and isn’t that the truth..Amen..I think about us and how we live our lives..all of us..and at how we begin our journey with God..and we begin the task of moving forward in our lives..and how we want the marriage..we want the kids..we want to become the nurse..the doctor..the scientist..the artist..the musician..the dancer..all of those things and much more..Amen..but are those things easy things?..are those things gonna be a walk in the park?..are they hard?..is there gonna be struggles?..are there gonna be nights of no sleep?..or many failures?..are there gonna be times where you just cry and wanna run away from it all?..you know throw that towel in and quit?..yes..there is gonna be all of those things..Amen..for nothing in life is gonna be easy..and if we don’t know that by now well we are fooling ourselves..Amen!”

“But you know with determination..and your mindset it does take you through all of it..Amen..when you get up daily and are determined that you want to achieve or accomplish whatever it is in your life..then you will follow through till the very end..Praise the Lord..and as far as the moon we all know that they made it..many failed attempts..but finally on July 21st 1969 Neil Armstrong stepped out of that Apollo 11 and he walked on the moon..Amen..and they say the place where he stepped out on was called the Sea of Tranquility..Amen..for there is always a peace after the storms and hardships of life..Amen..so know that in Ephesians 2:10..it says this to us..For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them..Amen..so we get up and we walk..Amen..and God holds our hands..and we keep walking..in other words we ‘ALL’ keep going..regardless..Amen..for there is a resting place..there is that sea of tranquility there for us all..so we go and move on and follow through with the Lord..Amen..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that 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 ❤
