Hello and welcome to the top of page five of this humble blog! How was your day today? Mine was good. I started out the day with God in my morning devotions. I also enjoyed the hot sunshine and worked in the yard. My carb count is within reason and I'm feeling great! Today is a good day so far and I hope that this evening will go well.
In my devotions today, God reminded me that I need to be careful of how I speak to others. In Proverbs 18:4, He showed me that "The words of a man's mouth are deep waters. The wellspring of wisdom is a flowing brook." In verse 8, He warns me against gossip by telling me that "The words of a talebearer are like tasty trifles and they go down into the inmost body." Verse 20 comes to mind when it says, "A man's stomach shall be satisfied from the fruit of his mouth. From the produce of his lips he shall be filled." Finally, God encourages me to use wholesome language by reminding me that "Death and life are in the power of the tongue and those who love it will eat it's fruit." (All verses from the NKJV version.)
The above verses show me how important it is that I speak the truth all the time, avoid cursing people and not say bad things about myself and others. Also, it is necessary to resist the devil verbally by quoting Scripture out loud, so that I may have victory in my life. I try very hard not to use the Lord's Name in vain or use curse words, but I've let a few slip in a time or two, especially when I'm angry. It bothers me when my relatives use certain curse words or phrases with God's Name in them because they don't realize that they will have to give account of those words at the judgment. I need to ask God to help me overcome this habit and pray for my relatives to come to Christ.
I pray that all of you will have a good evening and remember that God loves you, even when your language doesn't always reflect His love in your life. Good night. everyone!

Hello, it's me again! How are you all doin' this fine day? I'm doing great! I've getting paper work done on the pc and doing some housework later. I'm also trying to eat less carbs, a daily battle.  All in all, a good day.
I didn't do my devotions this morning, but I want to touch on the verse that I've memorized to help me think about positive things. Phillipians 4:8 NKJV says that: "Whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there by any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy, meditate on these things." This verses has helped me to refocus my thoughts out of the mire and onto God more times than I can count. His Word is a treasure cove of wisdom and I need to memorize and meditate on it more to grow in my Christian life.
I pray that all of you are encouraged this way by God's Word today as you go about your day. Have a happy and blessed day, everybody!

Hello again to another sunny day in the Midwest! I'm feeling better today, much more positive than yesterday. To be sure, some of those negative thoughts are still there, but they have lessened in intensity since last night after getting some sleep and spending time with God this morning.
In my devotions today, (I prayed earlier, then read God's Word just now), I learned that "There is gold and a multitude of rubies, but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel." (Proverbs 20:15 NKJV) I felt that God led me to that verse because I was saying some negative things yesterday in response to my negative feelings. What I say can be a blessing or a curse, threfore I need to say positive things and they will be like precious jewels coming from my mouth. That way I will be rich in the knowledge of God and His Word.
Another verse that I had previously underlined in my Bible was Proverbs 20:13 NKJV, which says, "Do not love sleep lest you come to poverty. Open your eyes and you will be satisfied with bread." I found that verse to be interesting because I slept late this morning due to staying up last night reading a Karen Kingsbury novel. Whenever I sleep late, I don't feel like doing anything else except going back to bed, especially on cold, rainy days. This verse showed me that I need to get busy and do things around the house and outside no matter how I feel so that I can honor and glorify Him.
I'm going to end this on a positive note by encouraging you to meditate on the above verses and focus on Him today. Have a beautiful, Sonshine day and may His light shine upon you!

Hello again from my corner of this wonderful, chaotic world!  How are you today? I'm doing fine. Today is going well for me in that I've lost weight again, did some exercise, did laundry and felt better than I did the day before yesterday and preceding that day. My mind is not jumbled with so much negativity and I'm learning how to meditate on God's Word more.
Speaking of which, in my devotions the last two days, the following verses jumped out at me. First of all, Proverbs 21:13, and 22:9 reminded me to be generous to poor people by helping them and listening to their needs. Second, Proverbs 21:25 encouraged me to watch what I say so that I can stay out of trouble. Next, Proverbs 22:13 warns me not to let my fears and anxieties keep me from taking action on them. Finally, Isaiah 26:3-4 encourages me to keep my mind on God and trust in Him and He will give me peace.
I've not been meditating on God's Word like I need to and so that may be why I get these negative thought attacks. Therefore, I will make an effort to saturate my mind with God's word so that I can resist those demonic attacks. This is my encouragement for you today as well.
I plan to post here a while, then get busy with my laundry and other tasks. Have a nice evening, everybody! May God richly bless you as you go about your evening!

Good evening and hello, everyone! I'm sitting here in a deep freezing basement posting and typing on my PC while listening to "Amazing Grace" by whoever it is on KLOVE. It's been a good sunny day and I'm feeling great today, albeit a little pain to keep me humble. So far, I've stayed away from sugared sweets and not had too many carbs today so far. My birthday is coming up and I hope that I will have a good one. My Mom suggested that we have mandarin chicken salad for my birthday with reduced sugar chocolate cake and frosting. Sounds yummy! I'll have to try it and see how it tastes and I'll let you all know.
I was doing my Bible study about the Holy Spirit, when Romans 8:8-11 jumped out at me. Basically it said that no one can please God if he doesn't have God's Spirit in Him. Since I have God's Spirit in me, I'm no longer in the flesh. My body may be dead because of sin, but my spirit is alive with God because I have His spirit in me. These verses encouraged me because I often feel like I've lost my salvation, but now I know that no matter how I may feel, His Spirit is in me and will stay with me no matter what happens in my life. Nothing can separate me from His love and nobody can snatch me out of His hand according to His Word. I can rest on these promises and trust in Him to never let go of me.
I have some housework to do, so I'll leave you with this thought: No one can take away the Spirit of God from inside you, and God promises that He won't ever do it. Good night, everybody!

Hello to my fellow posters in forums land! How are you all this fine evening? I'm doing well, even though I'm a little tired and in pain from mowing and doing other yardwark. I'm staying on my diet okay, which is good, considering that I weigh in tomorrow. All in all a good day.
Yesterday was a fun day, with it being another anniversary of my 29th birthday. I had some cake made with the new reduced sugar cake mix and frosting and low carb ice cream. Yummy!
My family and I played card games and enjoyed each others company. I plan to make a list of goals for the coming year, most of which will be a continuation of my New Years goals.
The other day, I read a devotional about fear. It said that fear can control you if you let it rule your life and you can overcome it by taking action against it. With this in mind, I made a list of all the things that I'm afraid of, then I will list action steps I can take to overcome those fears. God's Word has many verses that say, "Do not fear...", "Fear not..." and others which convey the message that the only thing, or rather, Person we should fear is God Himself. I don't mean a fear of punishment, but a reverant fear of His majesty and goodness. God's Word says something like "We should not fear those who kill the body, but not the soul, rather, fear Him Who can destroy both body and soul in hell." I can't find the address of this verse, but it shows me that I don't need to be afraid of anything or anybody anymore.
I hope and pray that what I wrote here today will inspire you to lay your fears at the foot of the cross. I encourage you to make a list of fears and action steps to overcome them like I described above. I wish you all a good evening and have a blessed, sunny day tomorrow!
Praise the Lord! Mighty is His Name in all the earth! Blessed be the Name of the Lord!

Hello, everyone! How are you all today? I'm doing great! I've been housecleaning and enjoying my weekend so far. The only bad news is that I gained three pounds.  I think it's because of the birthday cake I've been eating, as well as other carb foods. Maybe a little water retention too. Either way, I need to get back on track if I want to lose 35 more pounds by the end of this year.
I didn't do my devotions yet today, but I've been reviewing Romans 8, where I'm encouraged by the fact that I'm eternally secure with God and I won't lose my salvation no matter how I feel or what I do, say, or think. I'm also thankful that God gave me, a poor, sinful being, an opportunity to accept Jesus as my Lord and Savior when I was young. God has been with me all through these years and I look forward to spending eternity with Him.
I leave you today with an encouraging verse from God's Word: "There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit." (Romans 8:1 NKJV) Have a beautiful, Sonshine day and may His light shine upon you all!

Hello and welcome to the Memorial Day edition of my humble blog. Instead of my usual format, I want to concentrate on what this day means to me.
This day is a day for remembering our loved ones, friends and others we know that have gone on before us to their eternal home. I'm looking forward to the day when I will be reunited with various family members, some of whom I barely remember, and friends like my best friend Linda, who encouraged and inspired me to stay true to God no matter what circumstances I faced in my life.
This is also a day for remembering those men and women who have died while serving our country. Their sacrifice made it possible for the United States to become and stay a free and independent nation. Even though there are problems in the way that our country is run by our government, I think that we need to respect those in authority and pray for our leaders as God's Word commands us. I also think that people like Cindy Sheehan and the congregation of that church in Kansas need to stay home and pray for our soldiers who are fighting the war on terror, instead of dishonoring them by protesting at soldier's funerals and other unpatriotic activities.
This is all I have for today. I encourage all of you to reflect on the following words from that beautiful hymn, "Precious Memories"
Precious Memories
How they linger,
How they ever flood my soul.
In the stillness
Of the midnight
Precious, sacred scenes unfold.
Have a good Memorial day, everyone!

Hello to everyone out there! How is the rest of your day going? I'm doing okay. Today is another day of victory with my eating habits. I've been really watching what I eat and trying to exercise more when the sun is shining. I didn't do much today, but I enjoyed it anyway.
In my devotions this week, I've been focusing on verses from Proverbs on lazyness. Several verses speak of the lazy person as turning on his bed like a door on its hinges (Proverbs 26:14), fearful of being killed by lions in the streets (Proverbs 22:13, 26:13), not wanting to bring his hand up to his mouth after putting it into a bowl (Proverbs 26:15), and so on. These verses are showing me that I need to be more productive during the day and not spend so much time in bed. I also need to be diligent in eating right and exercising. Finally, I need to stop letting my fears get in the way of accomplishing goals and dreams in my life.
Due to storms in the area, I may not be on here long, so I'll end this by encouraging you to meditate on God's Word tonight before going to sleep. Have a great evening, everyone!
Melissa

Hello again to everyone! Hopefully it's been a good day for you all. My day was okay, despite my pain. I did some work, cooked dinner and managed to eat only a little over my maximum carb count instead of my usual amount. I lost the weight I gained last week plus a few, so I must be doing something right. I praise God for His Holy Spirit giving me the fruit of self control in this area.
Today I didn't do my devotions, nor read my Bible, but I plan to do so this evening before going to sleep. As I've mentioned yesterday, I believe God wants me to work on my tendency to be lazy, especially my bad habit of sleeping late on days when I need to get up in the morning. I have to get up early to maintain my medication schedule, yet I find myself wanting to stay in bed and do nothing, especially when it's grey and rainy outside. I need to not just read and study His Word, I need to apply it to my life and do it. For His Word says, "Faith without works is dead." (I don't remember where that verse is.)
Tonight, as you prepare to sleep, take a moment to focus on God's many blessings in your lives. Good evening, everybody!

Hello everybody, how are you all tonight? I'm doing fine. Today was a good day, with rain and sunshine, good Christian music and inspiring Scriptures and everything. I feel well and I think that I'll sleep good tonight.
In my devotions today, I felt that God leading me to focus on Proverbs 27:1-2 NKJV, which says, (1) "Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring forth. (2) Let another man praise you and not your own mouth; A stranger and not your own lips." These verses remind me that I need to stop bragging to myself and others about my weight loss and dieting efforts, or other accomplishments in my life. I also need to stop saying things like, "I'll do this tomorrow." when I can do it today. I have to remember that my life is "but a vapor that appears for a little while then vanishes away." I need to say that if it's God's will, I will do this or that, but in either case, I need to do it without procratinating.
Thank You, Lord, for giving me these insights today. I pray that others will think about them as they go about their lives tomorrow and onward. You are worthy of praise and glory! In Jesus Name I pray, Amen.
I pray that all of you will be encourged by what I wrote here and will meditate on God's Word before going to sleep tonight. Good night, everybody and may God bless you!

Hello again to another edition of my humble blog! I'm doing well today, although staying on my eating plan is proving difficult. I'm also having light headiness problems too, probably from drinking too much water. It was a good day otherwise.
I didn't do devotions again today, but I did read the devotional about being anointed by God. Basically it said that when you have a special anointing by God, people may not understand you. It also said that you should beware of letting it go, just like Samson did with his hair. This was good to read, but I don't remember being especially anointed by God to do anything special for Him. Maybe I'm dense or something, but sometimes I feel like God can't use me to tell others about His Son Jesus, since I don't feel that I qualify because of my lack of faith and trust in Him at times.
I pray that God can still use me for something, but I don't really know what His will is for my life. I'm good at writing encouraging poetry, devotionals and blog entries, but I guess I can't see how God can use my skills in these areas to reach unsaved loved ones and others for Him.
I know that this blog entry is a depressing one, but maybe some of you out there are struggling with these same feelings. I wanted to let you know that you're not alone. All of us, including me, need to turn to God and ask Him for His direction for our lives and show us how to go about it. Let's praise His Almighty Name together:
PRAISE THE LORD!
HE IS AN AWESOME GOD!
Have a good evening, everyone!
Melissa

Good evening, everybody! How are you all tonight? I'm doing fine. I haven't been on for the past few nights due to storms in the area and/or high winds, which in both cases I unplug the pc and phone line. I did some yardwork and read a little too. My eating needs to improve, but I'm not going to do what I did last night and that was having snacks after dinner or in the middle of the night. It was a good day and I pray that tonight will be good also.
I finally took time to do devotions this morning and learned something new as always. I felt the Lord directing my attention to Proverbs 29:11 NKJV, which says: "A fool vents all his feelings, but a wise man holds them back." This verse challenges me to learn to modify my emotional response to the environment. In other words, it may be all right to express my anger at other drivers by making "minor" remarks to myself about them, (Come on, people, let's find our gas pedals!) and not letting them distract me from driving safely. It would not be okay for me to communicate my anger by yelling out my window, driving recklessly or giving them certain gestures, which I don't do anyway. God would not be honored by such behavior. In fact, people may question whether or not I was a Christian if I was arrested for behaving in these ways.
During my time with God, another verse jumped out at me. Proverbs 29:25 NKJV says, "The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord shall be safe." This verse addresses my fears of how certain people may treat me in the future if some certain future events happen. I need to stop worrying about the future and dwelling on the past. Instead, I need to trust God to handle things and protect me from the people and situations that I'm afraid of. At the same time, I need to prepare for the worst by doing what I need to do now to make it less traumatic when the future events do happen. I can trust God to help me, I just need to do it!
This is all I have for tonight. I encourage you to meditate on the above verses and allow God's peace to enter your mind as you prepare to sleep tonight. Have a good evening, everybody!

Hi there, everyone! Welcome again to my humble blog! As I sit here in this comfortable chair typing on my pc and listening to my local Christian music station, I wonder what kind of evening it is going to be. I pray that it will be a good one, despite not doing what I've planned for today and wanting to stay in bed. I feel somewhat down because I've been getting up late and not doing what I need to do to make myself healthy. I need to stop staying on the pc so long at night and go to bed at a reasonable time.
I didn't really have devotions today. In fact, I read today's devotional just before I came on here, so I don't have nothing from God's Word to share this evening. What I learned from the devotional is to overcome depression by praying and reading God's Word. I also need to stop worrying, comparing myself to others and forgive myself and others for wrongs I did or were done to me. This is stuff I knew already, I just need to practice it. I plan to read God's Word and talk with Him more often, starting tonight.
I need to take care of some laundry now before I continue to post here, so I leave you with this thought: Remember to meditate on things that are true, noble, just, pure, lovely, of good report, have virtue and praiseworthy. (Phillipians 4:8) Good night, everybody!

Hi again, everyone! It's another lovely evening isn't it? I'm having a good day. I'm doing somewhat well with my eating plan and it showed again this morning when I got on the scale. I did my devotions and and did something I haven't done for a littlw while, I went to church!. I didn't get much housework done, but I felt that going to church should be my first priority today.
Today's sermon touched on the topic of putting Jesus first in our lives. Using the acronym FIRST, the pastor explained that we need to put Jesus first in our Finances, Interests, Relationships, Schedules, and Troubles. By doing this, we can live for and grow in our relationship with Him.
Putting this into practice this morning, my devotions focused on how to tell if you're being led by God. Basically, God will give us indications that we need to get out of our ruts and move on to something else. I have a poster that says, "When God closes one door, He opens another one." This tells me that I need to step out in faith and let God show me where to go, rather than be stagnant in my faith. For God's Word says, "Faith without works is dead." (I don't know where this is at.)
I close this by encouraging you to think of ways that you can put Him first in your lives. Good night, everyone!

Hello again, everyone! I pray that it's a good evening for all of you. I'm doing okay, just sitting here getting skunked at the online cribbage game I played with a relative and posting here in forums. I'm enjoying the sunshine and getting my tan.
In the last few devotionals I've been reading, I've learned about the importance of Bible study. The most important thing I learned is to apply it to my life. This is hard to do, because it means that I have to change my attitudes, actions, thoughts or words to match what Christ would want me to do.
Another thing I learned is to be consistent in Bible study. In other words, I need to set aside a time to study His Word and stick to it. I also need to ask the questions "why, when, where, how, who and what?" in my study. This way I will get more out of God's Word and learn something that I can apply to my life.
I have to go now, but I leave you with this thought: God helps us learn about Him only when we diligently seek Him. Good night, everybody! Have a blessed, Sonshine day tomorrow and may His light shine upon you!

Hello again, everyone! How was your day today? My day went okay, except I'm a little angry about something that is none of my business and I have no control over the situation, so I just have to keep the Serenity Prayer in mind when dealing with this matter.
Today, I met my friend somewhere and we talked and attended a Bible study together. I found out things about her situation that makes my blood boil, but whenever I think about trying some way to help her, Proverbs 26:17 NKJV comes to mind: "He who passes by and meddles in a quarrel not his own is like one who takes a dog by the ears." I need to let things go and let people deal with their own problems themselves.
I felt that God wanted me to focus on the following verses from Ecclesiates 4:9-12 NKJV in my devotions today. The passage reads: "(9) Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor. (10) For if they fall, one will lift up his companion, but woe to him who is alone when he falls, for he has no one to help him up. (11) Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm, but how can one be warm alone? (12) Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him, and a threefold cord is not easily broken." I think God showed me these verses because I hadn't been faithful in visiting my friend like I promised her I would. I saw her today, though and promised to call and visit her. I plan to keep my promises this time with God's help, because"I can do all things through Christ Who strengthens me." (not sure where this is at).
I've said a lot here today, so I'll leave you with one final thought: Nobody can replace the value of a close friend in the day of trouble. He or she will stick with you no matter what happens. Have a good evening, everyone!
