Fill Your Cloud

It's been quite some time since I have posted here on the blog. I have seen a lot and learned alot since beginning this journey with you. One lesson I have learned and would love to share with you is the act of filling up your cloud.

When you think about a cloud in the sky, it starts off as small. As it fills with condensation, it gets larger and larger. Eventually it begins to get full and starts to drip water. This is the rain that we don't see. Some call it fog or may be morning dew. But then, once that cloud can't take any more water, it will burst.

Think of your praise could the same way. The more you send up praises and show your appreciation for everything in your life, the more your cloud will begin to fill up with blessings. Eventually, your clould will get full and your blessings will begin to drip. Keep sending up praises, thanksgiving, good vibes, faith, hope, and even love. Your cloud will soon become so full that it will have to burst, releasing abundant blessings upon you. What a wonderful feeling.

After all is done, start filling up your cloud again. You can't loose, you won't fail. Just keep trying.

If you are religious, send up praise and thanksgiving to the lord. If you are spiritual, send up good vibes and positivity. If you are just trying to make it day to day, you too can be grateful for all that you have.

I'm filling up my cloud. Are you filling yours?

Be Blessed!

The Battle Is Not Yours!

When life comes at us with its fists balled and anger on its face, we tend to become defensive. We fight a battle that isn't ours. We allow our emotions to take over and often act out of character. Sometimes it can be hard to see through the storm and imagine what the end may be. It's ok to want to fight back, however its not always the best tactic. The greatest battles we can fight are the ones we turn over to our master. He loves us so much that he would rather we let him fight for us while we sit back and keep our clothes from getting dirty.

I know, we are human and our instincts say defend yourself, but he says to cast our cares on him. He promised to make our enemies our footstools. So why is it so hard for us to trust him? Ok, it's easy to trust for the first 5 minutes, but I am referring to the first 5 days or months. I challenge you to turn our problems over to him, put it in his hands and leave it there. Breath a sigh of relief and don't look back. Exercise your faith, dig deep and allow yourself to trust him.

Besides, what do you have to loose? He created someone as exquisite as you, what makes you think he would tarnish his masterpiece?

Be Blessed!
