Daily Positive Thread for Tuesday

gloriajean — Tue, 05 Jan 2016 00:48:43 GMT

Hello my friends! Hope your day is going well. I'm just a little bit under the weather today, seems a cough caught ahold of me, scratches the throat a bit, but good I have some good Vick's Cough Drops handy that helps. I made some good chicken noodle soup for lunch! Other than that, with resting, I'm going to be okay! May your Tuesday be filled with many blessings!!

Today let me find simple ways to bring joy to others. Lord, when I feel

that I have nothing to give, give me the confidence to believe in myself

so that I can touch the hearts of those around me.

S C R I P T U R E   F O R   T H E   D A Y

"Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens,
and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me;
for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your
souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." ~Matthew 11:28-30

M E D I T A T I O N   F O R   T H E   D A Y

I can have faith, no matter what may come my way. I can be patient,
even in the midst of troubles. I need not fear the strain of life,
because I believe that God knows how much I can bear and will be there
to help me. I can look to the future with confidence. I know that
God will not ask me to bear anything that could overcome or destroy
me.

P R A Y E R   F O R   T H E   D A Y

I pray that I may put this day in the hands of God I pray for faith,
so that nothing will upset me or weaken my determination to live in
God's way.

I Am There

You cannot see Me,
yet I am the Light you see by.

You cannot hear Me,
yet I speak through your voice.

You cannot feel Me,
yet I am the power at work in your hands.

I am at work
though you do not understand My ways.

I am at work
though you do not recognize My works.

I am not strange visions,
I am not mysteries...
only in absolute stillness beyond self
can you know Me as I am
and then but as a feeling and a faith.

Yet, I am there. Yet I hear.
Yet I answer.
When you need Me, I am there.

Even if you deny Me, I am there.
Even when you feel most alone, I am there.
Even in your fears, I am there.
Even in your pain, I am there.

I am there when you pray
and when you do not pray.

I am in you
you are in Me.

I am the law
on which the movement of the stars
and the growth of living cells are founded.

I am the love
that is law's fulfilling.

I am assurance.

I am peace.

I am openness.

I am the law
that you live by.

I am the love
that you cling to.

I am your assurance.

I am your peace.

I am one with you.

Beloved , I am there.

A whole new year is mine today...
May I be wiser, Lord, I pray!

I'd strengthen friendships, old and true,
And learn to cherish new ones, too;
To keep on learning and to grow
A little better as I go.

To cast aside each grudge and grief.
And hold fast to a firm belief
That life is joyous, gracious, good
When lived in terms of brotherhood!

To welcome fun, and play a while,
To lighten work with a happy smile!
To thank the Lord and every day
Remember Him, and kneel to pray
In gratitude for strength and health
And blessings which are all my wealth!

This year's a gift from God to me
To spend, or use, or set me free..

A whole new year is mine today...
May I be wiser, Lord, I pray!

Thank you, Lord

Thank you, Lord, for friendship and love so warm and sweet. Thank you for the little things that make life complete. Thank you for easing my worry and pain. Thank you for the sunshine and the smell of spring rain. Thank you for bringing comfort in times of stress and strife. Thank you for the precious gifts you blessed throughout my life. Thank you for listening when I seek prayer, and most of all, thank you for loving me and always being there.

January 4 - Jesus Calling
I want you to learn a new habit. Try saying, “I trust You, Jesus,” in response to whatever happens to you. If there is time, think about who I AM in all My Power and Glory; ponder also the depth and breadth of My Love for you.
This simple practice will help you see Me in every situation, acknowledging My sovereign control over the universe. When you view events from this perspective—through the Light of My universal Presence—fear loses its grip on you. Adverse circumstances become growth opportunities when you affirm your trust in Me no matter what. You receive blessings gratefully, realizing they flow directly from My hand of grace. Your continual assertion of trusting Me will strengthen our relationship and keep you close to Me.
I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory.
—Psalm 63:2
See, the Sovereign Lord comes with power, and his arm rules for him. See, his reward is with him, and his recompense accompanies him. He tends his flock like a shepherd: he gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart; he gently leads those that have young.
—Isaiah 40:10–11
Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.
—Psalm 139:7–10

Hi Gloria, sorry you are feeling badly.

The chicken soup and the Vicks should help a lot.

Hot lemonade is good too.

Blessings to all.
