We all need to replace our negativity with extra positive energy.
Do you write a daily journal? This inspiring thought comes from my journal, and much of what is written in my journal comes from reading and commenting on other bloggers’ posts. Thanks to many of you for adding so much to my journal.

Remember, God lives in a realm that transcends all. He is all-powerful. And when God is ready to move, He moves.
From Job 19:25: “For I know that my Redeemer lives, and that at last He will stand upon the earth.”

From 1 Peter 5:6-7: “Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, so that He may exalt you in due time. Cast all our anxiety oh Him, because He cares for you.”
God, our Creator
In Heaven above
Standing powerful
Sends infinite love
Father in Heaven
Promises fulfill
Support and courage
His infinite skill
Read God’s Holy Word
Be bold, come to Him
His love filled with care
His Grace overcomes sin
Walking with our Lord
His strong hands extend
Trust always in Him
No matter what has been
Miraculous brings
Infinite outcomes
Filled with sacred love
Like a beating drum
Our finite minds weep
Lack of faith descends
Our infinite God
Holds, never to bend
Our Lord’s specialty
Impossible makes
Genuine and true
His love, no mistake
Rely on God’s ways
Hopeless turns to hope
Strength overcomes weary
Walking life’s tightrope
God’s eternal love
Endures forever
He holds on to us
With faith, whenever

When I am criticized, injured, or afraid, there is a Father who is ready to comfort me.”
From 1 Chronicles 12:18: Then the spirit came upon Amasai, chief of the Thirty, and he said, ‘We are yours, O David; and with you, O son of Jesse! Peace, peace to you, and peace to the one who helps you! For your God is the one who helps you.'”

Life appears to me too short to be spent in nursing animosity, or registering wrongs.
From Ephesians 4:31-32: “Put away from you all bitterness and wrath and anger and wrangling and slander, together with all malice, and be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ has forgiven you.”

With another year starting up, I have been contemplating and praying about how to manage my life in better alignment with God’s Word. While a new decade is upon us, I am more concerned about the year ahead. Better yet, I need to build my faith day-by-day.
Last year, I kept three key words close to my heart:
While I have been successful in managing my pre-diabetic condition, and my family has been a true blessing in so many ways, I still feel there is room for growth in my faith.
In reading Scripture, Jesus is always connected to us. At the same time, there is a need to reshape my daily habits by reading God’s Word with a deeper understanding and to be more consistent in prayer.
From John 15:1-2: “I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinegrower. He removes every branch in me that bears no fruit. Every branch that bears fruit he prunes to make it bear more fruit.”
From John 15:11: “I have said these things to you so that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be complete.”
My mother (she will turn 82 this month) reminds me to make each day precious.
With faith at the forefront of my agenda for 2020, I will use a phrase to better emphasize keeping my faith on track and growing.
With God’s guidance, this Grace-driven foundation will consistently build up my spiritual energy.
