Worry Is Like A Rocking Chair… (Joyce Meyer quote)
Worry is like a rocking chair: it keeps you busy but it never gets you anywhere. ~Joyce Meyer
so so TRUE!!!
[see Matthew 6:25-34 (do NOT worry)]
“’Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? ‘ So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’” For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” [Matthew 6:25-33 NKJV]
His Grace and Mercy Are Life Itself
when God is WITH you, you WALK on what others are DROWNING IN and you REST in places where others COULDN’T SURVIVE ONE NIGHT…

Everyone Who Can Breathe Needs To Watch This [Travis Corey]
This Day
I’m looking forward to a day full of FAVOR, that will SURPASS ANY and ALL frustrations that may come my way…
I’m looking forward to a day full of PURPOSE, that will OUTWEIGH people, place or problems that would to distract me…
I’m looking forward to a day that will cause me to SMILE about EVERYTHING OVER being SAD about ANYTHING…
THANK YOU, Lord, in advance for THIS DAY! 
The Past
if you CONTINUALLY MEASURE the POTENTIAL of your FUTURE by the FAILURE(S) of your PAST, you WILL MISS OUT on GOD’S BEST for you! REMEMBER, DON’T focus on YOUR past, but instead, on JESUS’ past [hint: He DIED on the Cross so you could HAVE LIFE, and LIFE MORE ABUNDANTLY]!!
The Enemy [Joseph Heller quote]
“THE ENEMY” [your OPPOSITION] is ANYBODY [your FAMILY, your "CLOSE" FRIENDS, or your ENEMIES] who’s going to get you KILLED [bring you OUT of the Will of God or make you FALL], NO MATTER which “SIDE” [GOD'S or the WORLD'S] he’s on…
~Joseph Heller- quote from Catch-22 [& Ebony Clay]
Having A Renewed Mind
having a renewed M.I.N.D. simply means that [M]y [I]ntellect [N]eeded [D]eliverance so that I could take on the MIND of CHRIST…
“The person WITHOUT the Spirit does NOT accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and can NOT understand them because they are discerned ONLY through the Spirit. The person with the Spirit makes judgments about all things, but such a person is NOT subject to MERELY human judgments, for, ‘Who has known the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him?’ BUT WE HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST.” 1 Corinthians 2:14-16
A New Beginning [Paula White quote]
a NEW beginning REQUIRES an ENDING to the OLD [behaviors & habits]… don’t be AFRAID to GIVE UP [SURRENDER it & SUBMIT it to GOD] what’s FAMILIAR [COMFORTABLE, PLEASURABLE to your FLESH]… it could be FATAL [DEADLY] to your FUTURE!
