Stinkin Thinkin... (Fear) Power!


Stinkin Thinkin... (Fear) Power!

You go to the amusement park with your brave on. You head straight for the highest ride they have. You stand in a ridiculous line just to be the next one to board the ride; when all of a sudden you panic...you change your mind and retreat to the nearest exit. What just happened? Fear happened.

2nd Timothy 1:7 tells us that God has not given us the spirit of Fear, however He does goes us a sound mind and common sense. And let me say that common sense tells me not to get on anything that high (amusement park rides) except a plane!

Fear does several things:

1. Fear dominates strongly in our environments.
2. Fear will kill you (it is stress)
3. Fear expects the worst and not the best.
4. Fear is a counter force to Faith.
5. Fear is a demon spirit form hell.
6. Fear is of the devil who is the father of all lies.
7. Fear will bring distractions.

I have been subject to Fear and at times I must govern myself against it. Fear can knock you down, but will not knock you out!

Read these good scriptures to help combat Fear and raise up power, love and a sound mind.
(Job 3:5, luke 21:26, deut 31:6, john 10:10, psalms 53:5, joshua 1:9 and 2 tim 1:7)

Until we read again,
Dee

Okay so while me and a few of my co~workers were in the breakroom early this morning, I began to tell them about this board game I bought. In this game there is a part where you have to tell the truth about whatever the next player ask you...it's sort of like "Truth or Dare"... but with a twist...and it's for grown folks...okayyyyy! Well One of the cards you can play is called "Lunch with the girls!" and it has several different open~ended questions on it. For instance one card might say: How do you... and then you have to fill in the blank...with whatever comes to your mind first, but it has to be something real true and honest. Well we played a bit of it during our break and let me tell you...them folks I work with are NASTY YA'LL! *LOL* They had me rolling...but it was all in good fun. I decided to do one and post it. Now I won't tag anyone to do one of their own, but I will encourage you to. It's a fun way of revealing just a little bi

Okay so like the day before Thanksgiving my girl Belle (we call her that cause she loves to read books like Belle from Beauty and the Beast...plus she sings everything!) Anyway, she called me and told me she was going to her company's Pre~Thanksgiving party and she needed to borrow some really trendy shoes to complete the outfit wearing. Well this is how she said it ..."Danni, can I use a pair of your shoes to go with these new jeans I'm wearing to my jobs party tonight?" No class at all folks! Anyway, at first I was like (in the back of my mind) Hell Naw you can't use a pair of my shoes! Are you crazy? But then I sorta felt sorry for her and her new pair of jeans...I mean they deserve to be the hit of the party right? And what way to do that then with a fabulous pair of shoes. So I reluctantly said yes and asked her to describe her outfit to me so that I could pick just the right pair. She told me she was wearing this Seafoam green and Pink silk blouse and of co

These are my nephews folks. And when I say they are different as night and day...I mean they are different as night and day. Matthew is the tall one. He is 14 1/2 years old. He is a freshman in highschool and stands about 5'9~5'10 so far. Jaylend is the shorty:) He is 5 years old (September) He is in Kindergarten and he stands about 3'0 so far. My sister had these buggers far apart Right! I always said that I would not have my children so far apart...but my sister's case was a little bit different. When she was pregnant with Matt I was in my last year of highschool. We were so excited because this was the first grandchild for our family...well, for my mother, kim and I that is. All of a sudden during her pregnancy, she got real sick. I mean deathly sick. She was constantly throwing up. She lost wayyyyyy to murch weight. She looked bad ya'll. My sister was so ill that she couldn't even drink water! She threw everything up folks... she was miserable: *what she had
