GOVERN YOUR THOUGHTS RUTHLESSLY

This rule is absolutely necessary in all stages of life if you wish to succeed, for without concentration of thought, you are courting failure.

How many people there are out there that have hundreds of thoughts rushing through their head each minute, watching them like a tennis ball bouncing back and forth, causing a massive expenditure of energy without any return in results.

Picture a man shooting archery taking aim and letting fly the moment he thinks of something quite different. DO you think he’s going to hit the bullseye, or even hit the target at all?

If you wish to be healthy and strong, or succeed in any matter, you must appropriately guide your thoughts to the fullest in that direction without restriction. Even amongst events that it seems insignificant to have these thoughts.

Attention + Focus is a direction of energy. Concentrate your mind upon the idea of acquiring health and strength.

For example, the average dude may be watching YouTube or Tv while eating his meals - because he is distracted by whatever he is watching, he doesn’t chew his food enough. The result?

Indigestion, improper assimilation of that good, bad teeth and other chronic issues.

Many people that suffer from indigestion can cure themselves of it through the simple act of PROPER MASTICATION (chewing). It is the first step of digestion.

Another man will train for years according to a fairly good method, but he neglects to devote his mind to his movements.

Instead of clinging to the one important thought, “I will become strong,” or “I will strengthen this particular muscle,” he allows his thoughts to be distracted from the main point; the result is useless training, simply manual labour without increase of strength.

Worse still, he directs his attention to his phone mid workout, losing his intense train of thought.

Thought can influence a rush of blood to a particular area of the body, This is why mind muscle connection is so important. When you put your mind and focus into the muscle, you get a better pump and a better workout.

One ought to avoid all unnecessary worry and exciting thoughts, and to cultivate a firm tranquillity of mind.

ALL unnecessary sorrows and cares act in all circumstances harmfully upon one’s constitution.

Being a sad mopey person will in no way influence Fate, whereas one may weaken the body and mind by the waste of energy while indulging in them.

The best is to do one’s duty as best you can, and to leave the rest to the universe. We cannot control everything.

Holiday splurge alert!

Don't break the bank. Think long-term financial freedom, there's life beyond the holidays!

As you prepare to celebrate, keep your financial future in mind, prioritize wisdom over whimsy.

Festive fun doesn't have to equal financial stress, moderation is the gift that keeps giving. Prioritize your future.

Mercy cares!

"Be Still and Know That I Am God" (Psalm 46:10) is a powerful and iconic biblical verse.

Psalm 46 is about trust and confidence in God's presence, written during a time of turmoil and war.

"Be Still" (Hebrew: "Raphah"): Cease from fear, anxiety, and striving, let go of self-effort and control, rest in God's presence.

"Know" (Hebrew: "Yada"): Intimately acknowledge and recognize God's sovereignty, understand God's character, power, and love, experience personal relationship with God.

"That I Am God" (Hebrew: "Ani Hu Elohim"): Declaration of God's existence, authority, and divinity.
Affirmation of God's omnipotence and control and reminder of God's presence and involvement in life.

Combined Meaning:

"Be Still and Know That I Am God" invites believers to:

Trust God in times of uncertainty and chaos, surrender self-will and acknowledge God's sovereignty, experience peace and confidence through intimate relationship with God and recognize God's power and presence in all circumstances.

Dear sound minds, practice stillness and quiet contemplation, cultivate faith and trust in God's goodness, let go of worries and fears and seek God's guidance and wisdom.

This verse reminds us that, amidst life's turmoil, God is our Rock, Refuge, and Redeemer.... Be still, Mercy cares!

DECENCY!

The bridge that connects... treat people with kindness and respect always!

A little decency can make a big difference in someone's life. Choose decency, even when it's hard... especially when it's hard!

Decency is not just a virtue, but a responsibility as such, let's strive for a world where it is the standard.

Imagine what our world would look like if decency was the norm!

Today, choose decency over drama, believe in its power to transform lives and let it be your love language.

Decency matters, be the change!

Come to Me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. - Matthew 11:28 (NIV)

What a beautiful and comforting verse!

Dear sound minds, in a world filled with stress, anxiety, and uncertainty, Jesus' invitation is a breath of fresh air.

He welcomes the weary: those exhausted from life's struggles, the burdened: those weighed down by worries, fears, and doubts.

Jesus promises Spiritual rest: Relief from the weight of sin and guilt, Emotional rest: Peace amidst life's storms and Physical rest: Renewal of strength and energy.

Come to him, seek Him in prayer, worship, and scripture, trust Him, have faith in His love, care, and sovereignty and surrender... Release your burdens, worries, and fears to Him.

Let us pray: Dear Lord,
I come to You, weary and burdened.
Please give me rest and refresh my spirit.
Help me trust in Your love and care.
Take my worries, fears, and doubts.
Fill me with Your peace and strength. Amen.

Happy Sunday, Mercy cares!
