Greatful 12

I am greatful that I am becoming more secure in who I am and where I am going. I am greatful that I am blessed with air, and life, family and friends. I am greatful for good health, a good life, a wonderful home, great neighbors and an awesome soon to be realized future. I am greatful that I am no longer desperate for anothers' validation of who I am, where I am going etc.. I am greatful that I remember that I choose, and by keeping my eyes on God I choose what is best for me. I am greatful for forgiveness, repentance andGod's mercy and grace. I am greatful for humility. I am greatful that in every situation I have God and I have me. I am greatful for a discerning heart and spirit, and the ability to look more critically at situations and life and distinguish between the demands and wants of man and the simple, life giving, nourishing, word and wisdom of God. I am greatful for keeping that spirit of having no fear of letting things, situations and relationships go. I know that I am being changed and that though the change may be painful at times, it is all GOOD cause everything that happens in my life works out (Thank you God!!) for my GOOD. I know that God will always be there, He will/ He has send/t friends and others to keep me standing and moving on, moving forward, I am truly greatful for this fact. I trust God, in his Majesty, His Wonder, His Power, His Love and I am greatful that I have that beyond and above all else. I am greatful that I understand that the only standard that I have to live up to are God's and the ones that work for me and my life. I am greatful that I have the blessing to stop, get on track, turn around, make a u-turn if necessary and it is all due to God's mercy and grace. Thank you for all of these things and those things that I did not mention Father. Amen.

Everyone have a great and wonderful Thanksgiving. Remember, this is the time to truly be greatful for all of your blessings. Take a critical look at what you think you have lost. Is it truly a loss? Perhaps with a more critical eye, you will see the gain or the release. As one who use to believe that she had to have certain folks and certain things and do things in a certain way to be accepted, to be happy, to be "free" and have learned over the last several months that the only thing I had to have was God and myself, let me tell you, sis to sis or bruh, umm, NOT!! IF God is doing a shake up in your life, keep your eyes on your paper honey, let it go, let it go, let it be rearranged and walk into that thing, into your new life. Sing about it as soon as you stop mouringing over what you lost. Despite what some would have you believe, mourning is natural and God does not get mad at that. Don't stay in the mourning though!! When it is over, MOVE FORWARD!! Joy, trust me when I say this, JOY does come in the morning. You have a new and honest peace in your life, a sincere and honest peace cause it is not dependent upon any other players. It is all with God and You. Hallelujah. Thank you God.

To All~
I pray that all who read this are blessed in their spirit, that they are financially blessed, that they have the Peace of God upon them and they are blessed by uncompromising favor in every area of their life and that they walk and live in the Joy of the Lord. Amen.
