Be an~ "Individual"..make it personal!

Good Morning! Happy:) day! yes we are challenged to be Happy:), Joyful, Content, Peaceful, Quiet, Confident, and to Enjoy~ our Life!! It is not a competition with anyone or anything! and I am convinced that a competitive life will make one tired!!  In John chapter 16, v. 33 God tells us this...

*THESE THINGS I HAVE SPOKEN TO YOU, THAT IN ME YOU MAY HAVE PEACE. IN THE WORLD YOU WILL HAVE TRIBULATION ; BUT BE OF GOOD CHEER, I HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD.

I watch people that are in "competition" with another and I just think wow~ it takes a lot of energy to keep up~ with some one else in the game of life! (so to speak).. why? do we strive to do this...maybe it is a lack of knowledge in the word, maybe not feeling good about ourselves, maybe just wanting to fit in?..but God says we are an individual and we must seek HIM for our own "personal identification". I do know that when we accept Christ we do this one on one, there is not another that can do this for us, it must be standing alone and making that decision that you will change one's life!  In my children's growing up years we as parents often heard the statement...Why?..can't I do this or that..or go here or there?...every one else is doing it.. I just always said first "you" are not everyone else, and second if they jumped off the highest bridge would you jump to?.... So~ today just think on this thought.....that "I" was created for HIS Pleasure not for any one else or for any thing else!! Psalm 145:5 says this..

 *I WILL MEDITATE ON THE GLORIOUS SPLENDOR OF YOUR MAJESTY, AND ON YOUR WONDEROUS WORKS. ( I'm thinking that this is very personal) when this verse begins with " I ")......

*LET US HEAR THE CONCLUSION OF THE WHOLE MATTER: FEAR GOD AND KEEP HIS COMMANDENTS, FOR THIS IS MAN'S ALL. FOR GOD WILL BRING EVERY WORK INTO JUDGEMENT, INCLUDING EVERY SECRET THING, WHETHER GOOD OR EVIL. Ecc.12: 13-14(NKJV).

PS` this is my 400th post!! Wow~ I do talk alot!! just sharing a Happy:) thought!! LOL!!
