Goodbye Facebook!

I have finally listened and obeyed!  This social network site took away time, energy, 1:1 communications with friends, snail mail to friends and family.  Three people have done the same thing and this time I will be a follower!  I always told my boys, “Don’t be a follower!”  Be a leader!  So, am I leading or I am being a follower?  So, if you were a facebook friend; please email me!  So long, Facebook! 

One Word Update: Humility

The more you lose yourself in something bigger than yourself, the more energy you will have. by Norman Vincent Peale

This week started off alittle tired; alittle challenging, alittle busy, alittle exhausting, alittle bit of everything! But, today; as I googled a quote on Humility; I found this one and thought to myself; "wow, how true is this!" As I look inward and yearn for God's Holy Spirit to fill those empty spaces; I gained more energy for those challenging, busy, exhausting experiences and became renewed with God's greatness and reminded that if I only GO TO HIM in adoration, confession, thanksgiving and supplication; I come out feeling refreshed and filled with more energy and knowledge!

I have so much to be grateful for and my blessings are so many! I've learn to ask daily; second by second, minute by minute and hour to hour and HE will give me what I need! I just need to ASK!!

With the craziness of Monday; I missed my weekly Beth Moore Bible Study called "LIVING BEYOND YOURSELF" at my church. Wow, how fitting this quote is with the Bible Study. As I was JUST typing the title; I had a A-HA moment ... I really lived beyond myself this week and was quietly reminded of our Great Father above!I was reminded just today of the Fruits of Spirit and challenged to look at myself and ask myself if I have the Fruits of Spirit in my daily walk.

May you discovered an insight like I discovered; even tough its Thursday and the week is almost over; does that matter? Nah, as long as you keep growing and learning!
