5/25–Start Your Day Off Right Series

Quote:

5/25–God Can Handle It

Story:

Perspective–seasoned by experience, you begin to understand what not to worry about. So that you can put your efforts into that which is productive and not in that which will energize your enemies by focusing on them and what they are trying to do.

If you start speaking to them you give life to them and make them bigger by focusing on them. You need to ignore what they are doing, and keep on doing what you are called to do. Because whatever you put your attention on you give life to. You make something or somebody important the moment you give it or them attention.

Whatever you give attention to you make important. If you want to kill something, ignore it. A lot of time Jesus answered them not a word. Let the silence settle.

Quote From “Building Takes Skill, Tearing Down None” Avaliable In Kindle By J D Canter

Scripture:

Jude 1:20

But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,

Can You Spare A Minute Or So 5/25?

https://youtube.com/shorts/LZ5cknCdocE?si=zrp0DR0BwGdmGSw1

If you can’t find five minutes, can you spare one or two?

Charles Francis Adams, 19th century political figure and diplomat, kept a diary. One day he entered: “Went fishing with my son today–a day wasted.” His son, Brook Adams, also kept a diary, which is still in existence. On that same day, Brook Adams made this entry: “Went fishing with my father–the most wonderful day of my life!” The father thought he was wasting his time while fishing with his son, but his son saw it as an investment of time. The only way to tell the difference between wasting and investing is to know one’s ultimate purpose in life and to judge accordingly.

Overcoming Jealousy Is Not Easy, But So Important

Jealousy is a thief. It sneaks into our hearts quietly and begins stealing our joy, our peace, and our contentment. It causes us to look at someone else’s blessings while overlooking the many blessings God has already placed in our own lives.

Have you ever caught yourself wondering, “Why are they getting ahead?” or “Why do they have what I wish I had?” You’re not alone. Jealousy is a struggle as old as humanity itself. Cain became jealous of Abel. Joseph’s brothers became jealous of him. Even today, social media and comparison can feed feelings of envy if we are not careful.

The problem with jealousy is that it keeps our eyes fixed on someone else’s lane instead of focusing on our own journey. God never intended for us to compete with one another. He created each of us with unique gifts, unique callings, and unique timing.

Galatians 6:4 says: “But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.”

When jealousy knocks on your heart’s door, answer it with gratitude. Count your blessings. Celebrate the success of others. Remember this: someone else’s victory does not mean your defeat. God has enough blessings for everyone.

Your season is coming. Your opportunity is coming. Your answer is coming. You do not have to resent another person’s harvest when God is still working your field.

Today, choose gratitude over comparison, contentment over envy, and faith over frustration.

Motivational Thought for May 25:
“Don’t waste your energy watching someone else’s path—God is still writing your story.”

5/24–Start Your Day Off Right Series

Quote:

5/24–You must find the place inside yourself where nothing is impossible!

Story:

Someday Isle Is A Lonely Place

Someday I’ll do this or that. 

I wonder how many has been marooned and stuck on Someday I’ll? 

Like Tom Hanks in the movie Castaway. 

The cemetery is one of the richest places in the world. It has more riches that Fort Knox. Songs never sung, speeches never delivered, love never revealed, and talents never used. 

I want to do, as the motivational speaker Les Brown encouraged, and to “Live Full And Die Empty” 

I do not want to take anything with me I want to use it all. I don’t want to die never letting my friends and loved ones know how much I truly cared. 

I want to be like a wet cloth that you take and wring very drop of water out until there is nothing else left inside!

Scripture:

2 Corinthians 6:2

(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)

5/24-Can You Spare A Minute?

A young boy while visiting his grandfather in the country, found a small land turtle and promptly attempted to examine it. 

The  turtle promptly closed its shell like a vise. Where upon the boy seized a stick and tried in vain to pry the shell open.

Observing the boys actions, the grandfather quickly interrupted. “That’s not the way,” he said. “Let me show you how.”

Taking the turtle into the house, he set it on the hearth. In a few minutes the creature began to grow warm, stuck out it’s  head and feet and started to crawl. 

Turtles are something like people” said the old man. “Never try to force a fellow into anything—-Just warm him up a little ordinary human kindness, and more than likely he’ll come your way.

Visualization: Seeing It Before You Reach It

Visualization is a powerful gift God has given us. Before a builder constructs a house, he sees it in his mind. Before an athlete wins a race, they often picture crossing the finish line. Before a farmer sees a harvest, he plants seeds with a vision of what is coming. Great things often begin with seeing them before they happen.

Too many people spend their days visualizing failure, defeat, disappointment, and fear. They replay every mistake and imagine every worst-case scenario. But what if we used that same imagination to see possibilities instead of problems?

Visualization is not pretending reality doesn’t exist. It is choosing to look beyond your present circumstances and seeing what could be through faith, effort, and God’s help. Your current situation may not look promising, but don’t let temporary conditions steal your future vision.

In Scripture, God repeatedly gave people visions before He gave them victories. Abraham was shown stars before he had descendants. David saw himself defeating giants before he wore a crown. Faith often begins by seeing with spiritual eyes before seeing with natural eyes.

Take a moment today and picture yourself stronger, wiser, healthier, kinder, and closer to God. See yourself overcoming obstacles. See yourself helping others. See yourself finishing what you started. Your mind can become either a prison of fear or a workshop of hope.

As someone wisely said: “What the mind can see and believe, the heart can pursue.”

Scripture: “Where there is no vision, the people perish…” — Proverbs 29:18

Today, stop staring at where you are and start visualizing where God can take you. Sometimes the first step toward your future is simply seeing it.

The Amazing Strength Of Honesty

Honesty is one of the greatest strengths a person can possess. In a world where shortcuts, excuses, and appearances often seem easier, honesty stands tall as a foundation that cannot be shaken. Truth builds trust. It builds character. It builds a life that can stand the storms.

Honesty is not only about telling the truth to others—it is also about being truthful with ourselves. Sometimes we convince ourselves that we’re fine when we’re hurting, that we’re doing right when we know we need to improve, or that tomorrow will somehow fix what we ignore today. Real growth begins when we become honest enough to face reality and trust God with it.

A person may fool others for a while, but character is revealed in private moments. Integrity means being the same person behind closed doors as you are in public. Honest people sleep better because they are not carrying the burden of pretending.

The Bible says in Proverbs 12:22: “Lying lips are abomination to the Lord: but they that deal truly are his delight.” God delights in truth. He blesses people who walk with integrity and sincerity.

Today, choose honesty in every area of your life. Speak truth kindly. Be honest with yourself about where you are and where you want to go. Admit mistakes quickly. Own your shortcomings. Truth may sometimes be difficult in the moment, but dishonesty always creates a heavier burden later.

Remember: your reputation is what people think you are; your character is who you really are.

Walk in truth today—and let honesty become one of the strongest testimonies of your life.
