Praise the Lord for the mighty blessings of today! Just being alive is a blessing – all the rest is pure happiness!  

It is our focus that helps determine how our day is going to go and how it is going to end up. If we keep a positive outlook or thoughts on our minds through out our day, then we will have a good day despite what is coming at us. 

It is our outlook on the situations that face us that makes the difference and it is up to us to make that determination. One thing I keep telling my son to do is focus, focus and focus some more as with his attention span, it only takes one thing to throw him off. . . 

We are the same way with Jesus . . . it only takes one thing and we are thrown off . . . it can be something someone said, or did, it could be a look from someone, it could be that the person we love does not love us, it could be a phone call, an email, a lie, a cheat, a man, a woman, and you know what sometimes it can just a thought into the unknown that will throw off our entire day IF we are not mindful. 

We have to keep our focus on Jesus and though there are moments were it seems hard – nothing in life worth having comes easy. If this walk was to be so easy – what was the point of Jesus coming – He could have looked at us and said – your in – your not – okay come on – nope you stay . . . but He chose to come to earth and walk in this flesh to save us so that we can do it by FOCUSING on Him and not on our own selfish thoughts and ways. 

Every time we are led astray, what is the reason – our flesh plain and simple . . . so take our focus off of us and place it on the one who deserves all our trust – JESUS – JESUS – JESUS . . .  

So today I say . . . . FOCUS – FOCUS – FOCUS – ON  - JESUS – JESUS – JESUS! 

God Bless!  

ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND – WORRY FREE – TRUST IN JESUS AND LET THE REST BE!!
 
 

“The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field. Go! I am sending you… Luke 10:2-3” from Learning to Focus on Christ
Dr. Richard J. Krejcir

As my dear sister Casandra had a blog with the writings of this Dr, it is really an awesome reminder and made me do so more thinking about my own life and if I am doing all that I can. Am I really say Yes to the Lord? I was writing an email to another sister and my thought was…where does the time go? By the time I am done just getting myself together, ½ the day is gone. LOL

I thank the Lord for being God and for His direction. I think about the work that lies ahead of the WL4J Board of Directors and sometimes I get really nervous…but yet and still the Lord is blessing us to come together. I thank the Lord for all the sisters and brothers in Christ who are so encouraging and who are just always there when you need them.

The Truth of Alissa Lynne today is that I am just thankful. Last night as my hubby was taking his shower and I was reading my word and talking to the Lord, the Holy Spirit started speaking to me about things in me that needs to be changed in me. I am thankful that I heard the Lord speaking to me and though I am not really excited about letting some stuff go for when I am being molded, it is time for a change and for me to accept the change of my focus to being on me.

The Lord spoke to me last night and told me to move closer to Him, that the time I am spending with Him is not enough. To be honest, I thought WHAT??!!! Lord you have to be joking, in the morning, in the evenings and at night…I thought I was doing what I was to do. He said if you want more of me, you have to give more of you to me. So now I am making some adjustments in my life to accommodate this change. I am not sure how this is going to go but I know that the Lord said to step out on faith. I am going to spend more time with the Lord and make sure that I am surrounding myself completely with things of the Lord.

I think of where I am now in the Lord and I am happy and content…I think that is why this is coming about…I cannot settle for just any kind of walk in Him. I have to want to improve in Him daily. So please continue to lift me up in prayer that His will be done in my life.

Bless the Lord for all that He is doing…now off to the Christian bookstore…I forgot that I had to go there today!! LOL

Have an awesome day in the Lord!

God Bless!

Love your sister in Christ,

Sister Alissa Lynne
