Today's Free Write is: Pray

 

Therefore I tell you

Whatever you ask for in

Prayer,

Believe that you have recieved it,

And it will be yours.

~Mark 11:24

 

Prayer can be

A powerful weapon in life

If only you know how to use it

God does hear your prayers

Even if he doesn't answer right away

Answers to prayers

Can come in unexpected ways

At unexpected times

When you most need it

All you have to do is ask

And your prayer will be answered

When life doesn't seem to

Be going right

Pray to God for help

When life goes right

Pray to God

To thank Him for all that he has done

He is always there for you

He always listens

He always answers



When

I am linking up with 31 Days of Five Minute Free Writes this yera.

Today's Free Write is: When


You never know
What each day brings
You never know when
Something will happen
You just have to be patient
If there is something you want
You have to work for it
And it will come
Sometimes when you least expect it
When you find yourself
Wishing for something to happen
You feel sad because you don't have it
But you have to remember
That you don't get anything
By wishing for it
You have to work at getting it
It will feel all the more rewarding
Once you do get it
Whether it be a job
A new home
Or an experience
It doesn't come unless you work for it
Persistance and patience
Always pays off

Ask

Today's Free Write is: Ask

He who is

Afraid to ask

Is afraid

Of learning.

~Proverb

 

 

People may be afraid

To ask a question

Because they are afraid

Of learning the answer.

If they don't ask,

They will never know.

If they don't know,

They don't learn,

And if they don't learn,

They don't grow.

Asking helps a person

Understand the world around them,

And they can view the world

With a new perspective.

Asking a question

May be hard to do

But important

If you want to understand more,

Learn more about the world around you.

Don't be afraid to ask about something

That is important to you.

It doesn't hurt to question something,

And it doesn't hurt to find out more.

Talk

I am linking up with 31 Days of Five Minute Free Writes this year.

Today's Free Write is: Talk

Talking to God

Is like talking to a friend

on a Telephone.

We may not see him

on the other end

But we know he's listening.

----------------------------

People will talk about you

When they envy you

And the life you lead.

Let them.

You affected their life.

Don't let them affect yours.



For me,
Talking is very hard to do
Especially around new people
A group of people
People I am not familiar with
I am always thinking
About what I want to say
What I should say
What I should do
How people would treat me
Being so shy and introverted
Does have its disadvantages
When in certain situations
I am always worried
About what could go wrong
And not just letting what happens
Happen
And I always let the little things get to me
Well after it has happened.
I don't always like to say
What is on my mind
Because I think
No one wants to listen
That no one truly cares.
I have learned from experience
That talking truly does help.
I just need to push myself
To speak up on the important things
That need to be said.
Because it is worth being said
And it is worth being heard.

Door

I am linking up with 31 Days of Five Minute Free Writes this year.

Today's Free Write is: Door

Sometimes we stare so long

at a door that is closing

That we see too late

the one that is open.

--Alexander Graham Bell

 

 

When one door closes

Another one opens

It may not happen right away

But a new opportunity

Always follows

When one ends.

When a door closes

It means that chapter

Of life is complete

And a new door opening

Means a new chapter

Is beginning

An open door

Is an opportunity

To start fresh

To learn from the past

And to keep moving forward

A closed door

Is an opportunity

To learn from what has happened

To know why it is closed

And to learn how to move forward

A closed door does not mean

You aren't worthy of an opportunity

It means it is not meant for you

And you just have to move on

To the next opportunity

That is meant for you

You just have keep going

Never give up

You will always have doors opening up

With new opportunities

You just have to be patient

And sieze the moment

When it is given to you



How

I am linking up with 31 Days of Five Minute Free Writes this year.

Today's Free Write is: How

There is no manual on how to live life
You just have to live it
The best you can
How a person's life looks
Is entirely up to them
Entirely up to God
How you talk
How you think
How you dress
How you live your life
Is not for others to judge
Not for others to dictate
It is yours
And yours alone
How we live our lives,
And who we are
Is not up for debate
We are who we are
For a reason
And nothing will change that

Current Favorites

Well, it's time for another favorites list!

Here are my current faves:

• Poke bowls
  I recently tried a poke bowl from a new restaurant in town, and absolutely loved it. I had been wanting to try one, but didn't know where to get them. So, when I went to a local festival over the summer, I found out that the restaurant served them, so I jumped on the chance to try one, and have been hooked ever since!
• Body wash from SeneGence
  My skin feels soft and smooth, and it has a light, fresh scent as well. I will definitely keep on using this, and will purchase more in the future!!
• MARC ANTHONY TRUE PROFESSIONAL Bye.Bye Frizz Miracle Treatment
  I could tell the differnce in how my hair feels, after just the first use. My hair feels smoother and softer, and it does help with the frizz. I love it!!
• Trust Fund Beauty Nail Polish in the shade Kiss Kiss Darling
  It has been many years since I painted my nails, but I got this nail polish in my September Ipsy bag, and tried it out. The color is absolutely beautiful!!! It is a bold, burgundy color, that is perfect for the fall, and it makes me want to start painting my nails again!

• HEMPZ Triple Moisture Herbal Whipped Body Cream
  It instantly makes my skin feeling smoother, and the scent is amazing!
• The Great British Baking Show
  I was finally able to start watching this series, and I absolutely love it!!! I am a baker, so this show is perfect for me. The contestants actually care about one another, and are not trying to take out the others. The hosts and judges are great as well, and this show is amazing!!
• Pocketful of Primary
  A YouTube channel, by a teacher in Maryland. I have a heart for kids, and really want to be a teacher, so I am very happy to have found this channel recently. Michelle talks about how her days go, how she plans each day, shows what she purchases for her lessons, shows snippets of classes, and shares her feelings about each day. She keeps it real, and that is what I love about her, and her channel.

Inspire

Today's Free Write is: Inspire

The best thing
About the future
Is that it comes
One day at a time.
--Abraham Lincoln

Inspiration can come from anywhere

At any time

To anyone

The actions of one person

Can inspire the actions of another

Either good or bad

We need to let the good

Outweigh the bad

To help make the world

A better place

To inspire others

To do more good

So we can all make a better life

For ourselves and others

Inspiration can be a beautiful thing

If we let the world in

If we open up our eyes,

Our minds,

Our sould

To the beauty around us

Let us inspire each other

For the better

Comfort

Today's Free Write is: Comfort

He knows of our anguish, and He is there for us. --Dallin H. Oaks

 



No matter what happens in life,

There is always someone there

To comfort you.

When things are good,

They are there to celebrate with you.

When things aren't so good,

They are there to lend a shoulder to cry on,

An ear to listen to.

A hug to comfort.

Those people help us get through

The big and little things in life,

Always being there for us

No matter what.

Having someone to confide in,

To share things with

Is one of the greatest comforts in life.

The one who is ALWAYS there

is God

Who never abandons us,

Especially in our times of need.

That is the greatest comfort of all.

He knows exactly what we need,

When we need it.

He comforts us all of our lives,

And that is the best thing of all.



Hope

Today's Free Write is: Hope



When the world says, "Give up,"
Hope whispers, "Try it one more time."
~Author Unknown

 

Hope is a fragile thing

Yet strong at the same time.
Hope can be as silent as the wind
Or as loud as a lion.
We just need to listen
And look in the right places.
Hope is what helps us
To keep going
Especially when things get tough.
We need that little extra push
To get over a hurdle that comes our way.
Hope can be broken by the littlest thing,
But can be built up by the littlest things as well.
Hope can come in many different forms
From something as simple as
Hoping for a good grade on something in school,
To something as big as
Marriage, starting a family,
Or other big hopes and dreams.
Hope gets us through each day
And gives us something to look forward to.
Hope is a beautiful thing.
