A's Happiness Blogs

Joshua 1:9 “Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.” As I sit to write this blog, I find it interesting how even while I am writing this blog to encourage someone else, I find myself being encouraged.  See, sometimes as a Christian, I find myself feeling down. I felt like I cannot go on. I would even say I felt depressed. I felt like what I am doing is going nowhere.  Sure, when people see me, I have a smile on my face. I go around happy and joking, but what you see on the outside, doesn't match what I was feeling on the inside.  I will even go as far as say that I feeling alone sometimes. I read my Bible and I pray, I even have people in my life that I can talk to. But I still felt that sense of loneliness.   It even seems like I am not worthy to do the things that God has placed in my hand to do. I feel like I am not qualified.  Isaiah...

Standing Up for Yourself!  So in my last blog, I talked about having a boldness for God. That is so important when it comes to us being chirstians.

One day I did not have a ride to work because my husband was stuck at work and could not get off, ( he sold cars at the time). Well I called up to my job to let them know what w...

                                                                      Purpose for Your Life This is the second time I have written this blog. The first time, I sat down, typed out my though and I thought I was finished with it.  It took me over a week to write and I felt like I was at a standstill, because I kept changing it. Just as soon as I thought I was done with it and was ready to post it, I lost it because I did not know what I was doing with my new computer. I got discouraged and upset and I wanted to give up. But I knew I wanted to get this blog written and I refuse to let anything stop me.  It has been a while since I posted a blog. About two months to be exact. I have been trying to sit at my computer and figure out just what it is that I want to post. Not just want to post but...
