Today is a great day because my God is still in control!

Are you choosing to have a great day today?  Sometimes circumstances (AKA, life!) come along that discourage us and we are tempted to let it "ruin our day".  Do we forget...God is still in control?!!!  When we feel like we can't handle our problems we need to remember that WE don't need to handle our own problems!  Give them to God!  If we focus on our problems, they seem bigger than God, even though we KNOW that's not true!  Focus on God.  :D  Easy to say, I know, but God is a big God! 

=D   =D   =D   Be Encouraged   =D   =D   =D

It is so lovely outside!  Pepper and I had a good walk around that neighborhood this morning.  Well....I was going to share the encouraging song that was stuck in my head all morning BUT...it just got "unstuck" and now I can't remember what song it was!  Oh well.... :D  I worry about myself sometimes...I have to write my name down so I don't forget it!  It was something about how it was good to be in God's will.  If I remember I will write about it later.  =D

Since I didn't have time to post yesterday....here is yesterday's verse;

Psalm 68:19

Blessed be the Lord, who DAILY (emphasis mine) loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation.  Selah.

I spent some time yesterday just meditating on that verse.  If you look for them, you can see how God really does DAILY load us with benefits.  It's all in your focus.  :)

I just finished putting together a power point slide show for Children's Church.  I am teaching them a new song Sunday!  It's called "I am a Missionary".  Lord willing, the children that are in the children's parade for Mission's Conference will be singing it for the adults!  I'm excited about that!

I gotta run...here is today's verse!

Psalm 69:30

I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.

This verse is near the end of a Psalm where David is talking about all the people that are against him, and that his enemies are more than the hairs of his head.  Even with life is hard and it seems everyone is out to get us, we can still praise the name of the Lord!
