An 'eureka' Blessing!

Good Afternoon, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

Today is Sunday, ALL DAY....A day of total rest for us! I know it has been a bittid of awhile since I wrote my post of November 12th.

I have been given more hours at work (which is good) and I am very definitely learning LOTS!  Regardless of experiencing some challenging situations, my goal is to continually uplift others (co-workers and customers); with the hope that they leave the location, feeling better!!!

Alan has been searching high and nigh for various jobs and they are not that easy to find. Seems these days, one has to be computer skilled etc. However, he has been given some tidbit leads and is diligently following them up.

Today, I watched Dr. Charles Stanley (www.intouchministries.org) and, he is right on with his message - 'Solving Problems Through Prayer.' Best for those who are curious for some tid teachings, to check out his website.

Reflecting, Alan and I will have been married ten years as of tomorrow. The time has literally flown by and we are more in love and more thankful than ever for one another.

I also had a bit of an ' eureka' today. ie. Instead of being 'distracted' by 'micro matters' and being discouraged by disappointments, look for doors to open and not waste time on 'closed' doors. Accept the fact that certain doors have been closed and look expectantly forward to positive breakthroughs (from Him). When He closes one door, He opens another. The trick is, knowing when to accept closed doors and embrace new opportunities.

Tidbit - Focus on God's guidance, and have Him direct your path, as per His Will, His Purpose, His Plan, and in His Timing.. Leave everything to Him and cast your cares upon Him and just have the FAITH in Him to Provide Solution.

Bittid - Keep it SIMPLE. Do not get bogged down by the confusion and / or deception of distracting and time wasting details. Look to the more macro picture (ie. the unseen FAITH) and RELY totally upon Him to Prevail, as per His Promise to us.

He has sustained us thus far; so we are keeping that as THE focus, that He IS the Provider of Solutions. "Be still and know that I am God. (Psalm 46:10) Let Him carry your burdens and fight your battles.


Above, is the photo of our dear Blue, who passed away in February. We miss him terribly, and trust that he is in Heaven at peace and free of his devastating and tragic illness. We will also, raise our glasses to Blue, as in a 'Skal' to 'Absent Friends' when we enjoy our Christmas turkey dinner.

We may not have the exterior trappings,  however, we have the interior trimmings of the Holy Spirit! We will be celebrating the Birth of Christ; and we are thankful for the daily bittidz Blessings He gives us. We have very much to be thankful for!  We will simply continue to appreciate each and every day and keep an open mind and heart. 

Also, this time of year can be both happy and sad times for many; so our thoughts and Prayers go out to all those who are experiencing tidbitz tough times. 

Peace and God Bless.
