feels good to be patient and kind. It also feels quite endearing when someone
is patient and kind to you when you need it. Of course, some people won’t make
that easy for you, but consider them as an <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">opportunity

is the source of all good and perfect gifts, so there’s no need to be jealous
of someone else and their blessings. Ask Him for what you need. Never give too
much energy to those jealous and envious of you. Instead, take them as a sign that
you are on the right path. Thank GOD for them and ask Him to bless them. Then,
keep it moving. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: "MS Gothic"; mso-fareast-font-family: "MS Gothic";">Neither
of these will ever produce positive results when the focus is on self. You can
be pleased about things that you accomplish but the danger lies in believing
that you succeed independently and not by the blessing of The LORD. Feel free
to ‘boast’ about God’s Provision. He likes that. When you take the credit for
yourself, there’s no room for God to get the Glory He deserves. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: "MS Gothic"; mso-fareast-font-family: "MS Gothic";">When
you ask yourself, “Is this love?”, check to see if these qualities are present.
Haughty means ‘thinking so highly of yourself that you look down your nose at
others believing them to be beneath you.’ In other words, it means feeling arrogantly
superior or acting snobbish or rude. Love is neither. Since love is not selfish
nor rude, when you see such… Run! No, seriously. Don’t run. Pray and remain
prayerful. That person just may actually be a heavenly assignment. </span></div>

willing to be agreeable and flexible is a choice. The one that chooses to do so

love IS patient and kind, it stands to reason that being irritable and touchy
is not love. Sure, we all have challenging days from time to time, but you cannot
walk in love being touchy and irritable ‘all-of- the-time’! Breathe then chill.</span></div>

who does? (The enemy of our souls) That rascal hates forgiveness so much
because it is a quality of God and a habit that God wants us to cultivate
within. You can’t hold a grudge and forgive at the same time. Redirect the

Living Bible does. I can say that I have matured in the ‘not holding grudges’

I took a break from posting to pursue other things that kept me pretty busy. My plan was to begin anew in 2015 but a freak accident on an Amtrak train injured my finger and put those plans on hold. Ironically, my plan had been to write a series on my Amtrak travels over the years. It's still one of my favorite ways to travel, when I'm not in a hurry of course.<br />
<br />
I have a new monthly series beginning today. I pray that it blesses you tremendously.<br />
