LIVE SIMPLE BLOOM WILDLY

Last night Kevin was telling me he bumped into Taw and was speaking to him.

At first I was a bit hurt that he spoke to him after what Taw did to me. I wouldn't talk to a X-Partner of his if they were bad to him. 

*A reflection from jean came to mind " Jean has a pure hatred to a girl called Dorothy she is a connection to her friend Margaret. And because Margaret dosent like her so jean dosent too"

REFLECTION MESSAGE....Just because I don't talk to Taw dosent give me the right to want others to do the same too. 



But forgiveness is a hard lesson in life. I thought I had forgiven Taw but when Kevin started to speak about him I could feel anger arising in me . So still got some work here to be done....Then in today's message in my Joyce Meyer Devotional I noticed I have some growing to be done 😆 

Do certain people frustrate or irritate you on a regular basis? Perhaps God has placed them in your life as a test, just to see how you will treat them. If we let those who irritate us help us practice love, kindness, and mercy, they can become a help and benefit to us. Only when we are tested do we grow spiritually. 

“Father, when You send people into my life who are difficult for me to deal with, help me treat them the way You would. Help me look at myself before I criticize anyone else. In Jesus’ name. Amen.”

Then Jean saying on her tea cozy came to mind LIVE SIMPLE, BLOOM WIDELY 

So while I google to find a photo for my post,  AI generated this for me

Live simply, bloom wildly" is a phrase that encourages a lifestyle of personal growth and minimalism. It suggests finding joy in the essentials while also embracing your full potential without restraint.

The phrase may also be interpreted to mean that people are like flowers, and that it's up to each person to determine how they want to bloom and what they want to accomplish. A flower may start out colorless and boring, but once it blooms it can explode with color. Similarly, people may not always live the best or most exciting life, but they can still bloom and show the world what they are capable of. 


So i picked the above photo to go with my post which lead me to this LINK that was with the photo. It made me laugh because this is what me and jean were talking about yesterday about getting rid of all the clutter......So another piece to todays jigsaw puzzle.

To me, living simply, is to get rid of all the clutter in our heads as well as in our homes. To remove all the 'junk' that is thrown at us as we travel on our journey of life. To laugh more, and to love more. To be less occupied with material things, money, what people think, how we look, etc and to really enjoy the present moment. This frees us up to really live, instead of just existing and going through the motions. It's simple, Live simply, live more! When all the clutter is stripped away, we can find ourselves and our purpose. The fog is lifted and we are able to bloom, and bloom wildly that is!

This verse stood out to me this morning John 18:37 NIV [37] “You are a king, then!” said Pilate. Jesus answered, “You say that I...
