Good Morning friends!
Dancing in the rain! what does that mean?
You know that God is trying to tell you something when everywhere you go you keep hearing the same message.
Yesterday was the start of our annual campmeeting at church, and the preacher use the story of a famous violin player who in the middle of a very important recital one string of his violin pop, then 2, then 3 so he is left with one string on the violin but he never miss a beat. He kept on playing. He also read in Habakkuk 3:17-18
Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food,
though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior.
As my life took a turn for the crappy, at time I feel like just curl up in the hole and not come out. Have a pity party bash and cry my eyes out until something good come up, but it’s not just about weathering the storm.
It’s about how you weather the storm.
It’s about learning to keep on playing when all your string pop out and you only have one left.It’s about dancing in the rain.
It’s about praising God even when it’s all bad, not in a religious kinda way but in confidence! Knowing that I’m a child of the King.
A King who promised good to me.
A King who watch over his words to perform it.
A King who does not lie.
A King who loves me.
When you know that, it’s not hard at all to dance in the rain.

I have never been a morning person, I remember my mom dragging me out of bed every morning for school… ugh I hated life at least until it was 11 in the morning.
30 years later, I’m still in the same boat. I hate mornings, I don’t like to wake up, it’s almost like the bed feel much better once the clock get around 5am. I’ve been challenging myself to wake up a few minutes early to spend some time with God, meditate on the word and get my mind right for the day. So far it’s been a hit or miss, more misses than hits actually.
a few hours ago, more like yesterday I was on a twitter chat with a few ladies discussing ways to wake up in the morning.
some if the tips were : loud alarm, get a dog LOL, getting to know sleep cycles and so forth.
The things is, for me it’s not about waking up at all, its about getting out of bed. I wake up minutes before my alarm goes off, I’m ready to switch it off at first ring. Sometimes I’ll go back to sleep sometimes I just lay there idle unable to push the covers off and and put my feet on the ground. One of the ladies shared that she was the same way but will bounce outta bed if she had something exciting to do…ME TOO!
So the issue is not waking up at all! It’s lack of excitement about the day… now how do I make my days exciting to the point I’d wanna get outta bed early to start the day?
I don’t know! Any ideas? Chime in!

I came accross a study that suggest that the frontal lobe of our brain is voice activated. As you begin to say something, the brain is set in motion to make it happen.
EXAMPLE: I say I’m tired, the brain start getting the body ready for rest… since most of the time we still have to go through the work day and our activities we ended up sleepy, dragging and… well tired.
Remind me of Proverbs 18:21 “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.”
WOW! I can turn my day around by speaking and believing the right stuff.
In the light of this awesome revelation, I’m taking on the challenge of making my Mondays better.
My Mondays are always hard and gloomy, it’s hard to wake up, I miss the weekends, I miss my kids. Since there is nothing I can do about my Mondays I can change the way I respond to my Mondays and every other day.
1. Today is the day that the Lord has made I will rejoice and be glad in it
2. Everyday is a good day to give thanks unto the Lord
3. Being grateful result in happiness
4. Count your blessings, name them one by one And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.
I get to do this on a week day after work - not too shabby
What can you be grateful for? can you find one good thing to focus on for today? I do
