"Let go & Let God"

"I do not need to know exactly how to let go of my resentments or what will happen after I do. I simply must be ready to let them go."

We must trust in our higher power that he can & will take care of us. It is when I do this that things start to get better for me.

It was once explained to me like this. If you were water skiing & fell down but would not let go of the rope you would be pulled under the water again and again and again. Eventually you would let go. Wouldn't you? One would hope so. Now I don't know about you but I'm the type of person that has to be pulled under the water a few times before I realize that it's as simple as just "letting go"!

As you go about your day, please remember to keep the men and woman of all branches of the military in your prayers for a safe return to their loved ones.

Good night & God Bless.

Things that make you go HMMMM

Here is some more food for thought...

"God doesn't give you the people you want, He gives you the people youNEED. To help you, to hurt you, to leave you, to love you and to make you into the person you were meant to be."

Think about all the good that came out of something bad. It's there we just have to dig deep to find it.

Good night & God bless!

I Hope You Dance

"Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass...it's about learning how to dance in the rain."

This is so true & appropriate for my day today. In the midst of the storm is when we need to dig deep & look for all our blessings. Whether big or small we all have at least 5 things we are blessed with or by everyday. Dig deep and I promise you will find them.

Don't let the situation or person/s define your mood. Rise above it to find the song in your heart that makes you want to dance through adversity. I cant dance or sing so when I do this I cause the people around me to laugh. Which if you think about it serves 2 purposes; 1)you forget about what it is that is causing your storm & 2)you may have just helped someone else forget about theirs.

Just as the song goes, "I hope you dance". Try it sometime. I have & it was so much fun!!

Please remember to keep our men & woman of all branches of the military in your prayers for a safe return to their loved ones.

Good night & God bless.
