Cramps In My Legs...Shake It Off.

During the night I had cramp in my legs ..i heard don't be like them ...don't hold onto stuff ..shake it off. So I gave my leg a shake to the song "SHAKE IT OFF by Tyler Swift.

I went and got my book Heal Your Body by Louise Hay and I looked up the probable cause for cramps and legs and I had a little chuckle 😃

Cramps...Tension. Fear. Gripping, holding on.

Legs...Fear of the future. Not wanting to move

New Thought pattern For Cramps... I relax and allow my mind to be peaceful.

New Thought Pattern For Legs..I move forward with confidence and joy, knowing that all is well in my future.

The song "It is Well With My Soul" came to mind there. The cramps were a sign that I was gripping onto fear. So I need to hand it over to the Lord (letting it go). He makes everything well 😇🥰 and I am able to move on into my eternal future. And all is well with my soul.♥️

When peace like a river attendeth my way

When sorrows like sea billows roll

Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say

It is well, it is well with my soul

Its well (it is well) with my soul (with my soul)

It is well, it is well with my soul

Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come

Let this blest assurance control

That Christ (yes he has) has regarded my helpless estate

And has shed His own blood for my soul

It is well (it is well) with my soul (with my soul)

It is well, it is well with my soul

My sin, oh the bliss of this glorious thought (the thought)

My sin, not in part, but the whole (every bit, every bit, all of it)

Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more (yes)

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul

It is well (it is well) with my soul (with my soul)

It is well, it is well with my soul (sing it is well)

It is well (it is well) with my soul (with my soul)

It is well, it is well with my soul

And Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight

The clouds be rolled back as a scroll

The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend

Even so, it is well with my soul

It is well (it is well) with my soul (with my soul)

It is well, it is well with my soul (because of you, Jesus, it is well)

It is well (it is well) with my soul (with my soul)

It is well, it is well with my soul

Had a little vistor in my drying room today. A ladybug is my symbol for my mum. We use to catch them for her and she would put them in a match box for luck. so lets see what she had to say to me

Ladybug Symbolism & Meaning... Feeling underestimated? Looking for a little more love in your life? Have a few wishes you want fulfilled? Ladybug as a Spirit, Totem, and Power Animal can help! Ladybug teaches you how to attract the things you desire! Delve deeply in Ladybug Symbolism and meaning to find out how this Animal Spirit Guide can help, enliven, and encourage you! Ladybug Symbolism & Meaning... Ladybug, Ladybug fly away home… Wait! Don’t recite that old saying so quickly without knowing the meaning and symbolism behind this little creature. When a Ladybug lands on you, folk tradition says luck and love are heading your way along with wish fulfillment and renewed joy. Sit down with Ladybug and see what she has to say. When at last she leaves the conversation, see in what direction she flies. That is the direction from which change will come. There is something light-hearted about Ladybug Spirit that reconnects us with our inner child. This part of Self remembers the wonder of little things, how to play wistfully and count the dots on the back of the Ladybug (the more dots, the greater the serendipity!). This aspect of Ladybug is perhaps the most vital to humankind in a world where too many things are filled with fear and anger. Renew Ladybug energy in yourself and dispel that negativity. In nature, Ladybug is part of the beetle family, and they seem to live in every imaginable setting. The shell of this insect protects Her, while Her legs “feel” energy from whatever they touch, including you! Ladybug’s color warns off predators without having to say a word, which is good considering their small size and gentle nature: As such, Ladybug symbolism embraces safety, awareness, and fearlessness. In the Middle Ages, Ladybug bore the name “Beetle of our Lady” (referring to Mary). Lightworkers tell us this translates to the Mother Goddess and reconnecting with the Sacred Feminine. Consider: is Ladybug Medicine calling you back to daily devotions that put you in deeper touch with the Goddess’ energy? Various cultures trust in Ladybug’s ability to foretell the future. In Slavic regions, they ask Ladybug all manner of fateful questions, often about the direction from which something (or someone) will come. Meanwhile in Norway should you and your date see a Ladybug at the same time, you are destined for romance. Other beliefs about Ladybug include: She can fly away with sickness after landing on you. Ladybug in the home means you will soon find some money. Ladybugs in England foretell good weather. In Switzerland stories of Ladybug liken her to the stork delivering children. The appearance of Ladybug is a blessing to farmers preceding a good crop. Killing a Ladybug brings ill fortune or bad weather. The bright red color of Ladybug represents passion. Ladybug Spirit Animal... Ladybugs appearing in your life precede a time when your goals begin manifesting in remarkable ways. Bits of good fortune trickle around like petals on warm winds. Stop and enjoy this moment. Don’t rush too quickly into anything, but instead let nature unfold like Ladybugs wings. There is no need to worry or fret – live and honor your sacred truths. A Ladybug Spirit animal may also arrive at the advent of a new relationship, or the renewal of one that had grown a tad stale. Ladybug whispers words of love in your partner’s ears. Remember that sweet voice and translate it into pillow talk as the relationship sparks. Alternatively, Ladybug may be telling you that love is just around the corner. If you see Her, count her spots to know the days, weeks or months before it arrives. Keep an open mind! Ladybug Totem Animal Those lucky folks born with a Ladybug Totem are a lot of fun to be around. This lively companion has a long-known curious stretch and always has fascinating ways of explaining odd happenstances. You are the joy-bringers – those who instill trust in others. Ladybug people cannot stand dull “small talk.” They will always seek out others with inventive, keen minds. In social settings, their motto is: “If it’s not interesting, I am out of here” (and off they fly). The friends and family of Ladybug people are truly blessed. You will always be there in times of need not only offering aid but lifting everyone’s Spirits with your positive outlook. A Ladybug Totem brings good fortune to the bearer, and also a love for, well, LOVE. They will try to set people up who they know feel like they lack in the relationship department; this isn’t willy-nilly either. There’s some thoughtful consideration that happens before they try to move things forward. Ladybug Power Animal... Seek out Ladybug when working Wish Magic. Whisper your desires to Ladybug Spirit and trust Her wings to take it to the four corners of creation. Light Workers also recommend Ladybug mojo for times when your luck seems sour. She brings sweetness back to life in the way of a charming surprise. Ladybug invocations assist with Goddess energies. If you work with Mary, use an image of a seven spot Ladybug as a focus (this represents her Seven joys). Once connected, celebrate the rise in your intuitive self. Open yourself to gifts of Spirit residing within you (and those she may bestow). Dare to dream the dreams you had as a child, and be ready for wonderful transformations. Native American Ladybug Symbolic Meanings Native Americans pay close attention to Nature in gathering the meanings behind various creatures. The Ladybug bears several generations of children every year, granting Her ties to fertility and renewal. Other common connotations in Native American tradition for Ladybug include an awareness of the Spirit realm and past lives, liberating ourselves from worry, and learning to trust in the Great Spirit as well as our Higher Self. Ladybug Dreams... When Ladybug wings its way into your dreams, it’s considered a harbinger of better luck. While some things in life may be going wrong, control is returning, and you’ll start feeling more like yourself very soon. Consider the color of the Ladybug when she appears in your dreams for a more in-depth dream interpretation. For instance, a red and black Ladybug symbolizes romantic love and the life force, while a yellow Ladybug might relate to matters of the mind. Also, the number of dots on the Ladybug is something to include in your interpretation if you can remember how many you saw. Numerology can reveal another layer to your Ladybug dream. Far Eastern Ladybug Symbolic Meanings... Asian folklore tells us if you catch a Ladybug and release it, she will wing her way to the one who is your true love and guide him or her to your side.

The Father's Love.

The Father's Love....

I was praying this morning and I realised how much God loves me. Growing up I always taught God was very tough and hard. And this actually pushed me away from him. But since getting to know him better and having a relationship with him. I have found him to be very loving. Yes he has rules but it is for our own sake that he has them.

With the boys I was trying to be their friend more than their mother. When they were young i was more strict with them so their behavior was great. But later on in life when i was not their behavior changed.

But with Declan I don't want to make the same mistakes. So I need to hand it over to God and pray for wisdom. I love him with all my heart but he needs discipline. He needs to have boundaries and rules. Just because I correct him doesn't mean to say that I don't love him. 

Just like I was with God, I need to be the same with the people in my life. I need to give them a chance. I need to get to know them, Because we really don't know someone until we hear their story.. Anne Brown told me a wee quote and I love it ...

LOOK AT ME AND SAY WHAT YOU SEE ...BUT WHAT YOU SEE IS NOT ALL OF ME 

Love it just reading The Word For Today Devotional and just love it....

YOU REPRESENT YOUR FATHER 'His heart went out to him." Luke 15:20 PHP

When the father saw his prodigal son, 'his heart went out to him'. Jack Graham writes: This isn't a father who can't wait to punish his sinful son...who has written him off as wasted and worthless. This is a loving, caring father who can't wait to embrace and welcome him. He runs down the road to meet him...What you see...is a picture of the Father's love for you...eager...excessive...approachable... abundant. Max Lucado adds: The tale involves a wealthy father and a wilful son [who]...takes his inheritance [to] Las Vegas and...wastes [it] on slot machines and call girls...Broke [and] too proud to go home, he gets a job sweeping...stables at the racetrack. When he finds himself...[eating]...their oats, he realises enough is enough...Off he goes, rehearsing his repentance speech...But..."When he was...a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion" [v. 20 NKJV)...We expect crossed arms...a furrowed brow...a guarded handshake...a stern lecture...Instead (the father said], "Bring out the best robe...a ring...sandals...and...the fatted calf" [vv. 22-23 NKJVI. The ring symbolised delegated authority. The one who wore it carried on business in the name of the one who gave it. Would you have given this prodigal the power of attorney over your matters? Entrusted him with your credit card? When you came to God, you were given authority to conduct business in His name. When you speak truth, you're His ambassador (see 2 Corinthians 5:20). As you steward finances He gives, you're His business manager. When you proclaim forgiveness, you're His priest. He has given you the privilege to do for others what He does for you. Don't withhold encouragement or affirmation! Speak words that strengthen others. Why? Because you represent your Father!

The Power Of Words ...God So Loved The World..

Watching this video by David Jeremiah just now and its just dovetailing with what I'm writing in my journal "Trust God and Be Good" 

And also this chapter from my book "The Fort-Fort-Day Word Fast"

Chapter 1

THE POWER OF WORDS

A lie will go round the world while the truth is putting its boots on!! -CHARLES SPURGEON

Most of us understand the power of spoken words, at least to some degree, but it is likely uncharted territory for us to consider the power of fasting words, or not speaking specific words. How could this be powerful? Scripture tells us very pointedly, "We all err in many ways. But if any man does not err in word, he is a perfect man and able also to control the whole body" (James 3:2) There are some fiercely unruly members in our bodies, but God's Word says that if we tame our words, we can tame our body and mind. That's powerful!

The taming of these unruly members of our body- the tongue, the mind, the appetite-presents a formidable challenge. However, the truth of God's Word is, "I can do all things because of Christ who strengthens me" (Phil. 4:13). It is the truth that sets us free. And herein lies part of the paradigm shift that will take place in our lives as we fast words. We move from what is true to the truth, from the seen to the unseen, from the physical to the spiritual, from the negative to the hopeful. We will quit living in the past, allowing our failures, mistakes, and sin to paint our identity with hopelessness. We will move into God's intentions and promises for us. We will see God's kingdom come to earth in our midst. 

Can you visualize the impact on your life if you could bridle your thoughts and body? This is God's very intention for us, to destroy strongholds of poor self-image, negative speculations, and every though that is contrary to who we are in Christ. Life and death are in the power of the The words that come out of our mouths heal or hurt.They bring reconciliation or division. By our words men are called into their destiny and the life of the Lord is shared with others. By words dreams are shattered,

You see, Satan is always out to destroy the essential purposes s of God. Christ's vision for us as believers is that we might be one as He and the Father are one. Christ knew our great love for one another would draw unbelievers into the kingdom as they witnessed something their souls yearned for but could not find in the world: unconditional acceptance and love. Satan uses these other kinds of words that come out of our mouths-judgments, criticism, sarcasm, negativity, complaining, to keep this purpose of God at bay.

Words of blessing a remarkable impact. Gentle words of blessing soothe the inner man. They are like cherry limeade with crushed ice on a sweltering summer's day, refreshing the body and emotions. Words of encouragement bolster the will and activate hope in our lives. Each one of us yearns for motivating words of praise that infuse our self-worth. They stimulate our desire to actualize the unique potential God has placed in each one of us. Sunny, cheery words are protein to the spirit of a child, shaping the course of his or her life at such a tender age and having eternal impact.

Positive words are verbal nutrients that hydrate the entire being; when lacking, God's purposes are left dormant. Negative words produce verbal toxins that poison the soul. In the wake of negative, critical words, a person's confidence is destroyed and God's possibili- ties are crushed. Yes, spoken words have the life and death. power of

As Christians we are commissioned to be ambassadors of life to others, to speak blessing not curses. Words that are judgmental, critical, sarcastic, negative, complaining, or soaked with gossip cast a dark cloud on everyone who comes in contact with them.These words should have no part of us. Paul teaches us directly, "Let no unwholesome word proceed out of your mouth, but only that which is good for building up, that it may give grace to the listeners" (Eph. 4:29).
