Tuesday Coffee Talk

Good Tuesday morning everyone!  Time to rise and shine.  It's gonna be a wonderful day.  I hope you slept as good as I did.  Just had to get up a bit too early this morning.  Allison has to go back to the OMF Facial Dr. today for a follow up.  I'm going to get a kick out of it when he sees how well she looks!  She's my miracle girl!

Our challenge today is to forgive.  Too often, someone does us wrong and we harbor ill feelings or we can't forgive them.  If you hang on to unforgiveness it will eat you alive.  It will grow like a disease inside our hearts and mind until it can destroy us.  Unforgivness destroys loving relationships.  It can destroy families.  It's a terrible thing to hold on to.  I talked with a young man just last week that has had very bad temper problems.  He will lash out at his mom, brother, step dad, even strangers.  I asked him why he felt the need to do this so bad.  He pulled out a letter that he toted in his wallet.  The letter was written in 2000 when he was 8 years old.  It was a letter to the man that split his family.  He vowed revenge to this man.  I told this young boy that not only did he harbor unforgiveness in his mind, but he was carrying it around on his person.  We can not carry around unforgiveness.  On us, or in us.  It will kill you and destroy you.  Let go.  Learn to forgive.  It may be hard to forget, but you can forgive.  Imagine if the entire world NEVER forgave.  Imagine that Jesus Christ never came to forgive?  WOW!  Where would we be?  Today, I challenge you to forgive everyone that has ever done you wrong.  You will feel like a million pounds have been lifted off your shoulders.  No matter what ANYONE has EVER done to you, you CAN and MUST forgive them!  You can do this!

So, who's up this early?  What cha sipping on?  Me?  I'm about to go to the kitchen and get the coffee pot going.  Then, I'm headed to the front porch swing for a little bit before I get Torey and Allison up.  We are going to make it a day in B'ham today.  If anyone is interested in Lunch around hwy 280, let me know!  I'd love to have coffee or lunch with some of you! 

Love you all and ya'll have a great forgiving day!

 Allison is going to have a perfect report!!!

This is a tremendously tough challenge...but it is all so worth it.  It is much like a purging of your soul, that you must get rid of the unforgiveness or it will eat you alive, literally!  Again, GREAT CHALLENGE this morning, tough, but great!!!

Nothing tastes as good as being thinner feels.

I have to walk early in the morning, before my brain figures out what I'm doing.

Boy did I need this challenge today. I have been harboring alot of ill feelings about some work situations and certain coworkers and it is eating me up. In fact so much so that I have now started vomitting every day and everytime I have to discuss the problems I get acid reflux and chest pains. I am going to let go and forgive these people.

Morning brother!  I know that Miss Allison is going to have a good report from the Dr. and the Sr. is going to be blown away with all that God has done for Allison.  I would love to see a pic of how well she is doing.  I've thought about her so much through the past week or so.  Thank God she is alright!

Thank you so much for this challenge today.  I believe I needed it.  As I have a hidden anger for someone very close to me.  I don't act ugly but I sure feel the hurt and pain and anger inside of me.  I believe today is the day for the release of it all.  Thank you again for this today!

I am headed to go mix up some YUMMYStrawberry Kiwi K20 Protein Water Mix that my sweet SP sent me this week!  This stuff is delicious!

Have a blessed day my friend!
