No one every knows what tomorrow will bring. All we have is the hope that something bright, beautiful and wonderful will show up.
While I can't be sure of what will come my way, I do know that I have the strength and willingness to survive whatever it is.
God gives all of us the strong fortitude to keep going despite the uneven odds that life throws at us.
Stay strong in your spiritual pursuits, believe in your faith and never stop trusting that God is on our side, even when we can't feel him next to us.
Tomorrow's Coming will be what it will be and worrying about the next minute won't change anything in your life.
Have faith and be strong as everything will turn out for the better.
God in his mercy loves us always. Tomorrow's Coming will belong to him.
Find peace, be well in spirit.

Better days ahead
You know I firmly believe that better days are ahead. I know it doesn't seem like that's possible, but it is. Nothing stays in the negative realm forever.
Just believing that bad things can turn to good things is simple in thought, but turning that into an everyday belief is something else.
I whole heartily believe that better days are ahead for all of us here on earth. Putting my faith in fast mode is all it takes. So put your positive thinking and faith in first gear and believe.
Here's wishing everyone world wide the best days ahead. Keep the faith and may God bless you always.
Hugs,
CJ

Day by day
Looking for the horizon I watch the light peek over across the ridge.
Day breaks, just beginning, clean and fresh, new upon the earth.
Vivid colors of whites, mixing with the pinkish , oranges and bright golden rays spread across the new day.
Hope brings joy and anticipation of what is yet to come.
Early sun rise, new, fresh, here to cleanse my soul.
Day by day I am renewed, my spirit hopeful, letting the old go.
Breaking sunrise, come and claim me, make me yours.
Day by day, there I go.
Hope, day by day.

Fall, fall, fall.....
Hooray!! It's finally here. The beginning of the changing of the season has begun and how I love the changes that are coming. Every season has it's own particular flavor, but after a long hot summer here in the south(of America) the fall season is always a pleasant welcome.
It's so enchanting for me as I sit on my back deck looking out at the wide variety of trees in my backyard. I know as the season approaches those trees will begin to form a beautiful fall picture.
The wind settles down from the hot air stream into that wonderful delightful cool breeze. It filters down across my backyard, gently whisking my wind chimes around. The sound of those tingling chimes is like a playful song to my ears.
Soon the cool nights will eventually begin to paint that warm bright colorful canvas of oranges, browns, reds and sunlight yellows all across my backyard. Everywhere I turn to gaze outwards my eyes are filled with the exciting colors of fall.
Ah yes, fall, fall, fall, how I welcome the beauty that it brings. It refreshes my mind and spirit, helping me to know that nothing stays the same forever. But then, why would we want it to, it's the moving on to new and greater chapters of our lives that makes living so grand.
Fall, just fall into something new and feel the excitement of life.
After all, what do you have to lose? Are you bringing your new and awesome colors to life? Be brave, be behold and fall into something new!

Envisioning
Many times I just sit here in front of my computer looking at an empty screen. My mind twirls and whirls as I dig very deeply inside of my inner being. Hoping for the next inspiring thought I wait, almost patiently for my thoughts to come together. What I'm really doing is trying to envision how I feel about myself and this world.
That is a very troubling question. I ponder what is happening in my world today and what is my vision of myself within this frame work.
Often times I wish that I could do more for everyone in need, but that isn't really possible. I can't afford to feed everyone that needs a meal. I can't house everyone that needs a home and I certainly can't cure any diseases that anyone might being dying from. So the question of how can I really help others in need remains the same.
Having thought about this situation for many years I realize that I need a simple vision. If I can offer some food to any food ministry then I had fed someone. If I can donate a little extra money to the homeless shelter then I have helped prove shelter. If I can allow a friend in need to live with me for next to nothing then I have found shelter for a homeless person. If I can give money to charities that are a good cause then maybe I have helped saved a life.
When I ask God to guard over those less fortunate than myself, then I have thought of others and not only of myself. Having a vision where I envision what is practical for me to do in trying to serve others is the beginning of believing that with one small step I can actually be of good service to those in need.
Envisioning what is possible, taking one small step forward and trusting that God will lead me to where I need to be is the joy of knowing that I can do anything that I envision.
We are all blessed with a vision, look beyond the horizon and see what is truly possible.

Forward
Time moves forward, constant and forever. How forward do we move when we are tested to our fullest. Don't stop and let the negative aspect of life prevent you from moving forward into a happy and content life.
Keep moving forward towards the sun rise, a new and fresh start for everyone.
We are all God's children, be assured of his blessing, moving forward in peace.

Seeing
Down and out is never good. It leaves you feeling bad and blue. If ever a time comes when you feel too heavy, seeing that you can look up is the answer to your prayers.
Seeing clears the way for visions you couldn't see. Seeing closer than ever before is the way to opening new doors.
So if you feel that low and doubtful moment slipping into your soul. Left up your eyes to heavens front door, for seeing is the first part of believing there's more.
