Lord, please help me get through this initial phase.

It's just full of worry and anxiety which prevents me from thinking of clear resolutions.  I know these negative feelings are not from You.

I would like to be at peace at what I have to do right now.

Dear February...

February 2014 for me is more of a heartbreak month more than any other months in my whole life's history...

I learned several things... One is that you can only trust yourself, and your family. Apart from that... Trust no one because they all have a tendency or inclination to leave you.  With family, you're bound with the same blood so there's really no escaping.

Another is that no matter how sad or how depressed this month has gotten, I did realize my strength.

A lot of the things that has happened this month would qualify a slit on the wrist for some people... I'm just so so so grateful that I've remained sane.

Since February has been tragic... I'm looking forward to a more festive March.

I love this

Never Misrepresent Your Product
'...Provide things honest in the sight of all men.' Romans 12:17
Eventually lies are exposed. The truth will always surface. 'He that covereth his sins shall not prosper' (Proverbs 28:13). Anyone who does business with you wants to know the truth - the whole truth. Jesus had the greatest product on earth: salvation. He offered the human race an opportunity to have a relationship with God. He even promised them a home in heaven. But He never painted a distorted picture. After talking about the advantages of following Him, He spelled out the challenges. 'Ye shall be hated of all nations for My name's sake' (Matthew 24:9). Jesus offered people more than a pie-in-the-sky philosophy. He believed in preparing people for every possible situation that could arise. In an age when bankers and businessmen twist the truth to enhance the bottom line, God calls on you to be honest, even to your own hurt. If you represent God, and if you want to experience His blessing, you must do business His way. An honest relationship is worth more than a hundred sales. Your integrity will be remembered longer than your product. We as a nation need to go back to what made us great in the first place. Thomas Jefferson said, 'The whole art of government consists in the art of being honest.' In the Bible, God's people were largely an agricultural community. So God laid it on the line: 'Do not use dishonest standards when measuring length, weight or quantity' (Leviticus 19:35 NIV). John Parnell wrote, 'It matters not what you do, make a nation or a shoe. For he who does an honest thing, in God's pure sight is ranked a king.'

Faith is the hand that receives God’s gift, then faith is the feet that walk with God.
