Blog Block

Over the past several days, I had been working on a blog that had me pondering and processing. Today, I thought I finally had it down and was preparing it to go on line. Then oops I hit a wrong button and it was gone and I could not even find it. Out in that cyber trash with no return. Let me just tell you, for a woman who is never lost for words. I have a great attack of Blog Block, Brain Freeze. So I have to decided to take this moment and remind us all that in the next couple of weeks we will be beginning the Holiday season with Thanksgiving.

For many people they take these holidays as times to reflect and remember times past and present lack. They get depressed, cry and carry on. Believe me I know, because I use to do the same thing. Instead of truly counting my blessings, I counted my losses and what I had or had not done that caused me to be in the way I presently was.

I would challenge you to take a few minutes to begin making a long list of those things that are positive and wonderful about You. You have breath and have changed the lives of those around you. You are made by a creator that loves you so very much. He created you and all your flaws. These “flaws” are the very thing that makes you unique.

Even if you think you only have you to live with. You have the Almighty Living God. Your Abba Father. Take time to know Him, take time to find out about Him. He is worth it all. Does He take a magic wand and bring it all like a fairy godfather. No. But He takes you and makes you a new beautiful living creature and He will guide and direct you through the journey. He even provides an instruction manual to take you along the way. It is never old or out of date. Imagine that!
So begin thanking Him for Him and for making and creating you, take time to look at your circumstance and then talk to Him about it. He is there ready to listen and to give you guidance.

For those of you who already know Abba Father, take time to just thank Him for making you His Feature Creator. Ask Him what His plan is for you through the Holiday. It may be as simple as just being nice to those strangers that pass our way each day.
When you feel like you are heading towards that negative, depressed state, just begin thanking Him for the little things, then try smiling. Go look in the mirror and smile at yourself. You may want to even stick your tongue out at yourself. What’s the point? You may not be able to change your circumstance at this very moment, but you have an Abba Father that is waiting to guide you in the right direction.

The opportunity to just be is now. Who you are what you believe you are. But if you know you are His child there is nothing that can keep you down. You are the child of the Creator of the World – so act like it, begin acting as He would act.
During this Holiday season – take time to give the gifts of Mercy, Love, Grace and Acceptance of those around you. The good thing about it. It doesn’t even cost you a dime. But it will get you closer to the understanding of who your Abba Father is.
