Hello everyone, I did not drop off the face of the earth, I just lost my footing and forgot to take care of ME. Little by little I am finding things to remind me that I deserve a lot more than I have allowed myself to have. Here are some of the things that have dropped into my lap that are encouraging me...
"Events will take their course, it is no good being angry at them; he is happiest who wisely turns them to the best account."
"You have the power in the present moment to change limiting beliefs and consciously plant the seeds for the future of your choosing. As you change your mind, you change your experience."
No Admittance
==============
Wishing to encourage her young son's progress on the piano, a mother took the small boy to a Paderewski concert. After they were seated, the mother spotted a friend in the audience and walked down the aisle to greet her.
Seizing the opportunity to explore the wonders of the concert hall, the little boy rose and eventually explored his way through a door marked "NO ADMITTANCE."
When the house lights dimmed and the concert was about to begin,the mother returned to her seat and discovered that her son was missing.
Suddenly, the curtains parted and the spotlights focused on the impressive Steinway on stage.
In horror, the mother saw her little boy sitting at the piano,innocently picking out "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star." At tha tmoment, the great piano master made his entrance, quickly moved to the piano and whispered in the boy's ear,
"Don't quit. Keep playing."
Then leaning over, Paderewski reached down with his left hand and began filling in a bass part. Soon his right hand reached around the other side of the child and he added a running obbligato.
Together, the old master and the young novice transferred a frightening situation into a wonderfully creative experience. The audience was mesmerized.
That's the way it is with God.
What we can accomplish on our own is hardly noteworthy. We try our best, but the results aren't exactly graceful flowing music.
With the hand of God, our life's work truly can be beautiful. So the next time you set out to accomplish great feats, listen carefully and you can hear the voice of God whispering in your ear, "Don't quit. Keep playing."
Feel His loving arms around you. Know that His strong hands are playing the concerto of your life.
Remember, God doesn't call the equipped; he equips the called.
Your worst days are never so bad that you are beyond the reach of God's grace.
And your best days are never so good that you are beyond the reach of God's grace.
Don't Quit – Keep Playing
I also thought that I would share my top 10 songs I have been listening to...
I am thankful for the strength that I posess and the knowledge that whatever God's plans are for my life I have to trust him that everything is going to be for the best.
