It's Done--It Just Hasn't Manifested Yet   By Dianna Hobbs     Hate is a strong word, so let's just say, when I was in college, I strongly disliked going to the financial aid office in the beginning of the semester. This was always a time when lines would be wrapped around the building and hours were spent waiting.   I didn't have a cell phone back then. After a while, people-watching got mind-numbing. For the most part, those who were stuck in that long, narrow hallway were doing the same thing: twiddling their thumbs; shifting their weight from one leg to the other; sitting on the floor; leaning up against a wall; reading a book; or complaining to anyone who would listen about how annoyed they were with the drawn-out process.   It was truly dreadful.   The worst moments were when, after my slow-coming turn arrived, I'd get to the desk, only to be dryly informed that I had forgott...

    "Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them - that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like." Lao Tzu

Don’t Be Limited By a Lack of Faith A woman shopping in Houston happily hummed a tune as she collected the items she wished to purchase and approached the cashier. The clerk just stared at her for a long moment, as though wondering what was wrong with her, offering an obligatory, “How are you doing today?” That’s all it took. The woman nearly bubbled over. “How nice of you to ask! I’m doing great. I am so blessed!” The clerk looked at the woman quizzically for a moment and then said, “Let me ask you a question. Do you go to Lakewood Church?” “Why, yes I do. How did you guess?” The clerk shook her head and smiled, “I should have known. Everybody that comes in here like you is from Lakewood.” What a great compliment! That’s the way it should be. God’s people should be the happiest people on earth. So happy, in fact, that other people notice. Why? Because we not only have a fabulous future, we can enjoy life today! Living your best life now means being excited ...

God wants Christians to separate ourselves from people from our past who mean us no good, that does not mean live in isolation .... we are to be separated not isolated....  be blessed Psalm 1  (NIV) 1 Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, 2 but whose delight is in the law of the Lord , and who meditates on his law day and night. 3 That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers. 4 Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away. 5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. 6 For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.       Be Blessed ... my friends

      Leave Your Mess-Ups Behind You   By Dianna Hobbs     I'm not a Twitter person, but I do love Facebook.   If you follow me there, you know that every day I share whatever it is God places upon my heart. Last evening, I posted a thought He gave me in the middle of getting ready to pack it in for the evening.   I wrote, "Don't waste another minute regretting past mistakes or failures. Just begin again. There is a new mercy waiting for you. Start fresh."   Truth is, everyone-at least those who are not in denial-have things in their history they wish they would have done differently. I do. You do. We all do.   In fact, my mind goes back to January 1998 when my husband Kenya and I were first married. We were young, wide-eyed and fresh out of our parents' houses. We felt like we could conquer the world together as long as we had each other. ...

Joshua 1 New International Version (NIV) verse 5-9 5 No one will be able to stand against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you. 6 Be strong and courageous, because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore to their ancestors to give them. 7 “Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. 8 Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” Be blessed
