091818 5 Quick and Easy Motivation Tips

5 Quick and Easy Motivation Tips

1. Let Go of the Past
Before you can create a better future, you must let go of the pains in your past.

Failing once does not mean you will fail forever. Learn from your history,

but don't let it stand as an obstacle between you and your dreams.

2. Remember Success
Just as important as learning from and overcoming past failure is recalling past success.

It doesn't matter who you are, you have succeeded at something at sometime in your past.

Don't gloss over these moments. Use them to remind you that you can in fact achieve your goals.

3. Realize the Possibilities
It's possible. The dreams you hold in your heart but push to the back of your mind are

within your reach. Accept the fact that you can create a better life. This will serve as

the springboard of belief you need to succeed.

4. Dream the Big Dream
In order for dreams and desires to inspire you to action and achievement, they need to be big.

If you don't get excited about what you have planned for the future, you will never find the

inspiration you need to change your life. Powerful dreams can move the soul, and when you

dream the big dream, you will be driven to make the compelling picture a tangible reality.

5. Thinking Your Way to Change
No matter how bad you want it to happen, change will never result from thinking alone ...

you must take action. The world is swimming in dreamers, but only those who act on their 

desires achieve truly remarkable results.

But my experience is that the opposite

“The best is yet to be.”

091318 quotes

Self-pity is our worst enemy
and if we yield to it, we can never do

Anything wise in this world.
- Helen Keller

If I could tell the world just one thing
it would be we're all okay,
and not to worry cause worry is wasteful
and useless in times like these.
I won't be made useless.
I won't be idle with despair;
I will gather myself around my faith.
Light does the darkness most fear.
- Jewel

Forgiveness is not a matter of exonerating people

Who have hurt you. They may not deserve exoneration.

Forgiveness means cleansing your soul of the bitterness

Of ‘what might have been,’ ‘what should have been,’

And ‘what didn’t have to happen.’

Someone has defined forgiveness as ‘giving up all hope

Of having had a better past.’

What’s past is past and there is little to be gained by

Dwelling on it. There are perhaps no sadder people then

The men and women who have a grievance against the

World because of something that happened years ago

And have let that memory sour their view of life ever since.

- Harold S. Kushner

Despite the success cult, men are most

In getting there.
- Max Lerne

The three C’s of life …

090918 Keep the Faith

Keep the Faith

“What is faith?” I've often pondered.

It's like wind … it's there, but we can not see it.

Only through the eye of faith, we do not have to wonder.

In Hebrews chapter 11, we find Abraham, the father of the faithful and others beyond number.

The parable of the prodigal son is an example of one

That spent money on his friends until it was all gone.

Then he found himself in a pig pen all alone.

It was there the son remembered his father at home and his faith leads him home.

The prodigal son's brother was at home, but his faith was not very strong.

Jealousy caused him to not love his brother as he should.

He was just as lost as his brother when he was in the pig pen of sin.

Jealousy is something that to Heaven we must not take … it will keep us from entering in.

The rich man and the beggar is another story that we can tell.

The rich man did not care for the hungry and sick beggar, who lay at his door full of sores.

His riches made him feel too good to open the door.

In hell, he awakened, but it was too late.

As he saw Lazarus safe and secure in Abraham's bosom afar of,

His thirst was so great …then he needed Lazarus just a drop of water from his finger gives.

While on earth riches and power was the life he had lived now in hell his destiny was sealed.

He remembered his brothers who were lost at home …his faith had come too late.

He begged that someone teach them, an opportunity that he did not take.

If he could live his life all over again,

A different road he would be sure to take.

Faith in God and His work we must do, to teach others our whole life through.

We must “keep the faith” if to Heaven we go, and we must remember that we can not go alone.

We must be a good neighbor like the Good Samaritan,

Who taught us all an act of kindness that we must do.

When you win, nothing hurts.
- Joe Namath

There is a difference between conceit and confidence.

A quarterback has to have confidence.

Conceit is bragging about yourself.

Confidence means you believe you can get the job done.

I have always believed that I could get the job done.

I've learned that people will forget

People are like stained glass windows,

Is out, but when darkness sets in,

Their true beauty is only seen if there

Is a light within.

090218 COMPLETE IN CHRIST

COMPLETE IN CHRIST

We're complete in Christ;

we do not need
Ouija boards or astrology.
Who needs worldly philosophy?
Your trust in Christ should lie.

Put the Lord first in your heart,

Then from man's gods you will depart.
Mystics throw a poison dart!
And we're not safe amid them.

Studying angels with our time;

Weak devotions fill our minds.
We don't seek and we don't find!
Can we grow this way?

To study and to contemplate

God's Word, we need to concentrate
Upon its truths and separate
God's truth from mankind's wisdom. 

Complete in Christ, He'll make us free,

Open our eyes to help us see
How He's our life’s one true deep need.
Make Christ your Lord today!

-  Rose Ann Noey
