Praying for you Connie! God is with you. Lots of big things happening among us.

My prayer request was for a new job but I believe God plans for me and my family are coming to light. My husband and I were smacked in the face with a home business. It looks like the plan was sitting right under our nose the whole time but a few doors were still closed. There is a wide open door now, and I will be doing the necessary steps to start us going in the next few weeks. This is a very big deal so... Please keep us in your prayers!!!

For me, when I procrastinate it's when I'm overwhelmed and I already have a lot on my plate (which most of the time I do). I kind of just throw my hands up and go on strike type of thing. I guess that sounds like a child folding their arms and refusing to do what their told. heehee I use to stress out over everything because I wanted it all done perfectly, and no one else could do it better than I can. I gave that up after my second child I'm not a perfectionist...but I know a few. I try to prioritize and I even spend quiet time in prayer before I tackle the thing that needs to be taken care of. Its amazing how God can help us even with the little things. After time in prayer I get a peace over me and I can decide what needs to be taken care of right then and there or if Gods drawing my attention to something else. I notice if I ignore and procrastinate....I can become "not so nice" So spending time in prayer helps me big time.

I did everything I could to honor God but it was very tough. I hung in 7 years. After that I couldn't take it anymore. Don't mean to get off the subject a little bit but I'm where you were with your passed job. It's going on 7 years at my job and it's so hard....I struggle every morning to put myself in that place. It's hard for me to even put a smile on my face because I'm constantly going into battle. I totally understand Unaday. There is a woman at my job that is manipulative, controlling, LOVES to play mind games with people to get her way, just not a very nice person. and it is so hard because both our jobs are related and I HAVE to deal with her sometimes. I've had to pray those aggressive prayers of asking God to remove her. BUT SHE"S NOT MOVING!! LOL I'm praying for you Unaday! I recently put up a prayer request because if the situation at my job doesn't change than I pray that God will free me from it and open other doors.

perfect scripture!!!!

AMEN HF, AMEN!!! Your in my prayers!!

Oh boy, do I know that situation so well. Your in my prayers

I haven't read it all...I'm going to bed because I have a meeting in the morning so I'll read after my meeting. But that song you posted.....I've been singing it for two weeks now. No lie!! And to the Same video too....its saved to my favorites. I love it!!! Goodnite

I have 4 weeks to decide what I'm going to do about my job. They are trying to change things and it is not in my best interest. I took necessary steps to lock in my position so that I could keep the privileges and flexibility that I have, but there are other people/forces that are ready to prove otherwise and are demanding more from me. I need direction, I need doors to open so I can leave them peacefully. I have been feeling an overwhelming burden on me from working for this company. I have been desiring to leave for a few years now and I feel like I am literally being choked by this employer. Something inside me is making me feel so trapped at this job. I dont like it and I feel like I need God to rescue me from their grips. I NEED A NEW JOB!!! Please keep me in your prayers!!

God could only make one like him. His inflated head didn't leave room for the others... thats hilarious I agree with Nyagali....I've never known a bishop like you D! but......PTL!!!! looks like your dreams are coming true!

Praise God....congratulations Desiree!! Thats great news. thank you for sharing. God is good!

I pray God continues to poor His blessings upon you through your journeys.

Praise God!!!! that is awesome

Thanks Dreamster

yes it does...thats exactly how I feel when I'm on the social networks. Like I'm sitting back watching everyones progress. It makes me sad to see a few people I know constantly update cyberspace of all their downfalls and announce how horrible everything in their life is. Not asking for anything....just complaining. I dont know why it makes me so sad. But I've been where they are before...but I found Jesus. Maybe thats why it makes me sad. After I posted this topic the yesterday.....I posted an encouraging devotional to my profile.....so everyone could read it. I titled it...."choosing to be positive". I thought it was pretty good stuff

yes, I don't know about that last part either. I didn't like it. But in the dream when I thought about backsliding I was remembering how unhappy I was when I strayed from the Lord before....and I thought it was not a good idea to backslide. It's still weird that I would dream that. In real life I don't go on facebook that much...its rare. It's just not my kind of thing.

AH HA, I got it now....flap....wings... oh my dreamster...I just had some buffalo chicken wings for dinner...there were so yum!!! In my dream I seemed to be all over the place. I would be one place and another minute I would be somewhere else. At one point I was on a long road all by myself.....looked like it was somewhere out in the country. I would see cars driving by. Then I saw myself surfing the net, going on facebook posting comments like "Praise Him", or "Praise God..He is so good" and I would post scriptures too. Then I would feel sad because no one responded to my comments. I felt embarrassed.....I wondered if people thought I was crazy. than I was even thinking of backsliding too. Very strange dream.

flap? I'm not sure what that means, but I'll make sure I wont get into it oh wait a minute....I just woke up from a nap and had the strangest dream. It just might have to do with how I've been feeling lately.

AMEN AMEN!!

Ever felt like there was so much negativity around you, that you feel like the weight of the world has been thrown on you? Thats how I feel today. Seems like the negative out does the positive today. People I've talked to over the past few days. Even when I go on the social networks....families and friends (believers in our God) going through trials and tribulations, which we all do, but they have nothing positive to say. They just sulk and complain on cyber space. I'm putting my foot down.....I rather not wallow in the mud. Psalms 55:22 says Cast your burden upon the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken. James 1:2-4 says v2.My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, v3.knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. v4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. The Word of God gives me hope. Romans 12:12 Rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in PRAYER!!! Prayer is the Key!
