Turning Point
Hello today! Whether Monday or even Friday, today is another day to enjoy life. Be confident and strong in every moment; but most of all be faithful and believe. Have you read the Sermon on the Mount? (Matthew 5-7:29) The first verses in chapter five use the word “blessed”. As I look at the meaning of that word blessed; the first word in each of the first 11 scriptures, I focused on what the meanings were that the dictionary gives. (see below) A few seem non-reachable, but in God’s eyes we can be those things. Each definition has goals, accomplishments, and things we want to be in Gods eyes! I have chosen to become number four; because being happy and content in all you already have is less pressure and life changing. All life events are not equal. But they do have actions; life changing actions. The turning point is in your choice to succeed emotionally, physically, and spiritually! Your life will have crossroads on your path in this life. These crossroads do not have to end you; they don’t define you, they just prepare you. Turning points can create messes unless you choose to let them become miracles; the choice is up to you. Let’s take today and reach for a turning point on our journey in life. We have that choice and opportunity to make them good or great! Notice I left out bad or negative; there is no room for them! Please try to never focus on the negative because we need the turning point to be life changing and hopeful! Let the grace and blessings of God fill us so we know that the better day is coming. Today is the day you are at the turning point! Which way are you going?

Dear Lord, I have come to a turning point. I am ready for you to lead me in the direction that will bring me your blessings! Thank you for this day of making new choices. Thank you Lord for being there, even when I was fighting to see your way. Thank you for allowing me opportunities to make the right choices and turn to the way that you will be honored and my life will proceed to happiness and fulfillment! Point me in that right direction and lead me on through my journey. Amen.
