FAMILIARITY SYNDROME

-

 List those things you are familiar with, how many of them have you taken for granted? How many of them did you get easily and how many of them did you have to work for? 

It is easy to take familiar things for granted; from people in our lives to things we have. Has it ever occurred to you that someone is praying for the parents you have, the partner you don't cherish, the job you hate, the clothes you don't  like; the food you complain  about, the time you have, your good health, etc. You know that someone even wants your life but you are too familiar  with it to appreciate it.

Relax, take some time off your busy schedule,  show love to the good people in your life,  thank God for what you have, get to know God better and enjoy your life. After all, you only live once

FADE AWAY

-
 You only notice the beauty of the sky when your surroundings are dark. When was the last time you admired the stars in the sky? When was the last time you saw a full moon? I'm positive that you hardly pay attention to them because other things have your attention. Sometimes you don't notice how lucky you are, because you are surrounded by problems; you prefer to see the problems than your privileges. Problems are very destructive, they blind you even in the face of solutions. Try it, assess the privileges you enjoy and let the problems fade away  for a while.

WHY WORRY

-
Inspiration from the following bible verses John 14:1 "Do not be worried and upset," Believe" in God and believe also in me. John 14:27 "Peace is what I leave with you; it is my own peace that I give you. I do not give it as the world does. Do not be worried and upset; do not be afraid. John 16: "I have told you this so that you will have peace by being united to me. The world will make you suffer. But be brave! I have defeated the world!" Why worry? It looks like the easiest thing to do when there is no solution. Why not worry? It doesn't solve the problem.I use to worry about everything. From my body to other people's problems. It just seemed natural to me, I felt worrying only meant that I cared a lot. I worried about things I had no control over and that was very stressful.Worrying doesn't just drain you of your energy, it brings about fear and panic and deprives you of peace.Is worrying a solution? No! Does worrying provide a solution?

GRATITUDE

Inspiration from the following verses Isaiah 25:1 "LORD, you are my God; I will honour you and praise your name. You have done amazing things : you have faithfully carried out the plans you made long ago." Amen Psalm 98:1 "Sing a new song to the LORD; He has done wonderful things. By His own power and holy strength He has won the victory." Amen Numbers 23:9 "God is not like men, who lie, He is not a human who changes His mind. Whatever He promises, He does, He speaks, and it is done." Have you ever felt like God has failed you? Has a delay caused you to think that God didn't care about you? If God is doing it for others, why not me? Have my sins swallowed me up in the sight of God? Or am I doing things the wrong way?I don't understand God, He has this unique way of going about things, twins don't even share the same DNA. How is He able to do everything distinctly? Have you realised that the same situation can cause different emotions
