“All of us have constantly heard from the time we were little ones even till now the phrase..Be careful..Amen..and which case is good don’t get me wrong..but somewhere hidden in that be careful is a little bit of doubt..and a little bit of fear that quietly through good intentions creeps in..and so in our minds we are not as confident at times as we should be..for the mere fact of having things spoken over us that is always the worst case scenario..Amen..if you go on a flight somewhere..others can seemly make it the worst thing ever..just to get on a airplane..Amen..or if you go on a road trip by yourself..same thing..you don’t really enjoy the trip for the mere fact of a constant state of looking around you..and not ever stopping anywhere to even use the rest room..lol..or even grab a bite to eat..that is totally forbidden..Amen..but you guys get my drift here..but here’s the thing we can’t live in a constant state of careful..Amen..we can’t always be careful..because we can’t stop bad things..we can be aware of things around us..but if we live this way then that be careful starts to grow a root in us and in our hearts..and then we will be so careful..that we won’t live life..we won’t do adventurous things..we won’t take the trip..we won’t get in the ocean..we won’t get on a roller coaster..we won’t go for a hike..and will never do anything by ourselves..Amen..but you know what we will do?..we will stay within the four corners of our walls..and we will live in our tiny box..as to where we know every person..every thing..every store..every street..Amen!”

“But you know fear is a liar..fear wants us never to do anything out of the box..fear holds us back from a lot in life..in more ways then one..and people think of fear as being scary..or being scared..Amen..but fear goes much deeper than all of that..fear will keep you from taking a job somewhere in another city for the mere fact of not knowing the city..the people..so the fear aspect goes like this..well, I will be all alone..I won’t make any friends..bad things will happen..and on and on..other than the opposite of fear which is faith..and it’ll go like this..Wow, what a great opportunity for me that the Lord has given..what amazing new sights and places I’m gonna get to see and experience..and I cannot wait to meet new people and make friends..so excited about places they have there to eat and the outside concerts they give..so many great things to enjoy..Amen..so today..this morning..I wanna say to us all quit being so afriad of life..Amen..quit being so afraid of a new adventure and or opportunity when it is presented to you..and quit more than anything being afraid of people..Amen..and just because something did not work before doesn’t mean it won’t this time..for Gods timing is perfect..(Psalms 27:14)..Amen..so yes be careful in your life..be aware..but whatever you do don’t let all of these be careful stop you from living the best life that you can actually be living for the Lord..because bad things happen regardless..but we have still gotta go by faith and not sight..(2 Corinthians 5:7)..and we still gotta get up out of our boat of life..and begin walking on the water towards Jesus..grabbing His hand and holding on tightly..and enjoying the journey and the ride that He will take us on..and what a ride and what an outstanding journey and adventure it will be..(Matthew 14:28-30)..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 ❤️
