Living It Up

Hello Friend! Hello Tuesday! We just want you to know that God is the best parent ever and a loving Father. He's not mad at you and He loves you BUT He does show His discipline towards our mistakes and rebellion. It's not uncommon to be unaware that God's discipline can cause feelings of abandonment and being overwhelmed. If you are feeling God's discipline don't despair! His grace and protection is never beyond your reach! Proverbs 3:11-12, Psalm 60:1-5, Revelations 3:19

When beginning again Thursday....Stepping out in faith this year and any year moves God to give you the success we seek. Let's talk about it! Genesis 6-10

When we have a past of exploding in our relationships when things need to be discussed one sure way to build trust again is to learn to respond instead of react. So did you have an extreme REACTION instead of a calming response in a difficult discussion? Did you do the best you could at that time? In this episode you'll discover how to forgive yourself. Inspired by I John 3:21

How well do you handle interruptions? Does the unexpected disturb you? Want to recognize God’s ways? Then choose to let go of your agenda and consider that maybe when things don't go your way it could be be God's way of protecting you or a divine connection for you. Psalm 86:10

The "gift" of encouragement is so rare. We emphasize gift because we believe it really is that, a gift. Do you need it to keep at it? Who doesn’t? So keep it simple. Tell God about it! Unlike people who aren't always available, God is! When you are weak go to Him in prayer. He is stable and available and the one who encourages and empowers you to keep going when you don't think you can. Colossians 4:2-3

When beginning again Thursday... remember the famous words of Forest Gump: "Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get." But in God's game of life it's a fact we get His grace. How sweet it is that in this episode we discuss how your situations are traced to or faced with God's amazing grace! 2 Corinthians 12:9

If you are experiencing drought and distress, today could be the day you take the 1st step out of your wilderness space. God's word is full of promises to bring you out and they come with a reasonable condition...you doing your part. With your cooperation He is willing and ready to meet you there! Luke 22:42

It's easy to find fault with others. That's why we do it. It's too difficult to work on ourselves. That's why we don't. With so much uncertainty it's easy to fall into faultfinding so we discuss making a decision to look for the good in EVERYONE you are with and asking God to help you work on your own faults instead. We discuss how.

Matthew 7:3-5

Feelings come and go just like Valentine’s Day. It's only been 17 years since were were single so if you need some encouragement this week then this podcast is just for you. Proverbs 24:27 Ephesians 5:22-33

Unforgiveness is wishing for a different past. The past is something you are powerless to change. Forgiveness, however, is a wonderful gift to give and when you remember that if you have been forgiven and that hurting people hurt people, forgiveness is much easier to return. So today learn about The Lord's healing love for your wounds and forgiveness of your past, so you can forgive others, forget mistakes and avoid losing the ones you love. Inspired by Luke 23:34
