This morning it was cloudy and it looked like it was going to rain, it is now 4 pm and the sun is out, the sky is beautiful and the day is PERFECT. I love Chicago when the weather gets nice. God is so good!
I love walking to the train every morning. Next time you are not in such a great mood, walk around for a little. If you are at home walk around your block, if you are at work get up from your desk and just for 5 mins detach yourself from everything else that might be going on and just breathe. 5 minutes, walk and meditate on God's goodness, thank Him for waking you up and giving you another day. We need to remember not everyone that went to sleep last night woke up this morning, so for that be thankful!
God is good!!! and He is good ALL the time, no matter how you are feeling He is still good, HE doesn't change ever, it is us that are overwhelmed with our surroundings and we forget that He is our hiding place, our refuge when things get out of control.
Enjoy your Wednesday and just give God all the glory!!!
Remember we only get ONE life to live, so please live it in a way that you won't regret!!! enjoy every minute, laugh at the bad things and just enjoy LIFE!!!

We have so much to smile about, but for some strange reason we choose to focus on all the bad things that might be going on in our lives. We forgot to be thankful for waking up, every time you are faced with a circumstance just smile and give God thanks for waking you up. If you were dead you wouldn't have any problems, you wouldn't have to think about the 44541326664 things on your to-do list. So rather than complain just SMILE

Taste & See
GOD is good. Regardless of what we do, what we are going through, how we feel one thing remains true and that is God's goodness. Many times we allow our circumstances determine our view of God. We forget that He doesn't change, He is the same. He will always be faithful, loving, kind, merciful.
Let's not forget that God is good, even when things around us are falling apart and we feel as if God has forgotten about us, I assure you He hasn't. Instead of complaining when bad times come take the time to meditate on what is going on and what lessons you can learn from all the chaos. We live in a world where bad things will happen, the bible doesn't promise us that everything will be perfect. I have yet to find a verse that says the way of the LORD is perfect and we will always be happy and trials will never come our way. There's an entire book of a man, a perfect and holy mad that suffer lost after lost, his name was Job. So let's be realistic and let's admit, bad things will happen but what determines the outcome is how I react to it. Will I let whatever circumstance defeat me or will I remain unmoved? Will I let go of God at the sight of trouble and try to do things my way or will I hold fast to His promise that He will never leave or forsake me?
Let's not walk away from God in our darkest moments, this is when we need to run and declare that He is our refuge, our fortress in time of trouble. We can hide under the shadow of His wing. God is good, let's not forget that.
