On this last day of the year my morning has been spent in meditation; and I'm sure like most of you...is being used as a time for reflection.
I don't know about you, but 2009 has been an amazing year filled with tremendous highs and even some minor lows. Members of my family & several friends have faced serious health issues that could have either debilitated them or killed them; yet they have been healed! That in and of itself is a reason to shout.
On the professional front, work...although not perfect...was exhilarating, lucrative and plentiful enough for me not to miss a meal or fail to pay my bills...and 2010 is already looking good with new possibilities and new avenues to pursue.
In 2009, I have grown as a person, a woman, a friend, a partner in a loving relationship & most of all, as a Child of God! My faith has been unshaken, my spirit has been renewed and my resolve has been fortified. God has plans for me in 2010.
So if you're feeling me on this...join today's Morning Meditation: "Take time to reflect on everything that is lovely." It comes from Philippians 4:8...
And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing.
Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable.
Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.
The WORD in Philippians is a powerful instruction from God. He wants us to find the things in OUR lives that allow US to give HIM praise.
And all you have to do is watch the blessings flow...

Thank you, Star, for posting this. I had a good 2009 and I expect and even better 2010. I have many blessing and opportunities that would be less than Godly for me not to take advantage of.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to seeing the different ways that you shape your career in 2010. That, is the fun part.
Blessings to you in the coming year. I ran across this scripture recently and yes, its powerful instruction from the LORD!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou posted this at such a great time for me. I was told this morning that my biopsy came back as cancer. I am not going to freak out, but instead am going to fix my "thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable.

Have a happy and healthy 2010 Star.
