This day is the epitome of our faith. Everything that Jesus went through was for us. Not only because He is good, but because He loves us. He could have said no but he chose to endure for us. Whatever you are going through He went through it too. His suffering was not in vain and ours is not either. Reach out to Him, he understands.
Remember by His stripes we are healed.
I hope your day was filled with love.
Until next time,
Dominique
I did not meet my all blogging goals for September but that’s ok. I am going to crank it up in October.
Here are the most read posts for September, a few you may have already seen but there are also some oldie but goodies.
My second most popular readers are again from China! Hello China!
Tithing answering a few questions
Do you feel like God left you on read
*It has taken me 4 days to write this post and 4 hours today. God has something big in store for me because this should not have been this hard. If you are trying to do something and things keep getting in your way. do it anyway. I am going to keep pushing and keep getting better, no matter what!
I have been working in the same job for the last 4 years. I am a college counselor. I love my job and am I good at it. I recently made a move to a new school this year and it completely shook my confidence.
I have only been there a month but I have learned a lot of lessons in the last 30 days.
1. I don’t have anything to prove. I am good at my job and I don’t have to do it the same way the previous person did.
2. I can not be everything for everybody. I was literally running myself ragged trying to make every meeting, do every presentation, sometimes trying to be two places at once. It was unnecessary. I wasn’t giving anything 100% because I was trying to do too much.
3. I can make mistakes. I am not perfect and that is ok. Nobody is putting any pressure on me but me. I just need to relax and do what I’m good at.
4. Trust is a very interesting thing. I’m going to talk more about this in a later post. I don’t really know the team I am working with that well yet. I am used to being excluded from things and being left off emails so I have been just showing up places. I don’t need to, my counterpart hasn’t left me off anything. He hasn’t done anything for me not to trust him.
Being a new person is not easy for me, nor is change. When I first started it was hard. I was lonely and nervous and unsure of myself. 30 days later I feel more relaxed. I have made some friends and I am learning the lay of the land. This change is exactly what I didn’t know I needed. I am so glad that I didn’t block my blessing by being afraid.
It’s not about bunnies, eggs and baskets. It’s about Jesus loving us so much he chose to die. He did not want to but he did it anyway. His love is unconditional. He is the same, yesterday, today and tomorrow.
If you are having doubts that he died and rose again, you should read The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel. Excellent book. It has facts and figures for people who need more information. It’s a great movie on Netflix. Enjoy!
Blessings to you and yours. Dominique
