Comfort For Today

Ecclesiastes 5:18-20

18Then I realized that it is good and proper for a man to eat and drink, and to find satisfaction in his toilsome labor under the sun during the few days of life God has given him—for this is his lot. 19 Moreover, when God gives any man wealth and possessions, and enables him to enjoy them, to accept his lot and be happy in his work—this is a gift of God. 20 He seldom reflects on the days of his life, because God keeps him occupied with gladness of heart.

~These verses were really comforting to me today. Verse 20 made me feel very confident that the Lord would keep me happy with my fuure if I continue to follow Him. :) I am in for a peaceful and content life with the Lord.

Putting Together The Pieces!

When your glass breaks, glue it back together,
When your glass is half empty, tell yourself it's half full;
When you feel like you can't take anymore, rejoice in the opportunities you've had,
And when you feel like giving up, just tell yourself your almost there.

Let People Go and Bring Yourself In!

The dependance of a person goes beyond what they think they know about themselves. Somebody might never realize how dependant they are on a certain person until they have to be seperated from them. However, this can be an essential and important part of life. If you love somebody very much, you will most likely feel very dependant of them. Make sure though, that your dependance goes beynd mere need. Make sure that love is at the very end of your dependant ladder. If you need somebody that badly you might want to step back from the ladder and see if you can climb it by yourself. This might be hard, but when you reach the top, you might realize that the person you started climbing with isn't somebody that you need in the same way after all. Maybe they can become a friend that you will visit with after the ladder is climbed. You might just find that it is much better to just go in and climb it alone...Just you, your confidence, and your Creator...
