Feel Good!

Jennifred Jones

Why when we push through and accomplish something we feel good, energized, like we can conquer about anything?

I believe we are to be forward moving beings …progressing towards the betterment of ourselves and others. The above-mentioned feeling of our success is the reward feeling and will propel us on. Conversely when we pull back… afraid to move ahead…what if …we get a feeling of weakness, intrepidation, fear to try new things. We slow down, cower back, plateau and nothing changes. I believe that is a sign we’re on the wrong track or at least we need to keep moving ahead.

When we do the right thing, we feel good inside about it. This is God’s signal to us as individuals that we did right.

How does it make you feel?

Your Campsite

Jennifred Jones

We each live somewhere. That’s our campsite.

In each of our individual campsites we have the choice how we want to live and what we want to think. Within the laws of the land in which we live, we have that right.

So why do so many choose to live a terrible, unorganized, filthy life? Our choices have led us there. And as they have led us there, better choices can lead us elsewhere.

We need to reclaim our campsite – put out the fire, sweep up the ashes and get started on a brand new day! Chop down invasive trees and weeds. Cultivate the soil, plant new seeds, water the land so it will grow and produce goods for us and ours!

Reclaim your pioneer spirit making the best of what you have and increase it.

If we listen closely inside ourselves, God will direct us and give us new ideas to make better decisions and ways of doing things.

We can get our campsites organized, swept up and on to our next destination! Isn’t it fun? A new adventure each and every day!

Where is my broom?

Let Your Thoughts Take Shape

Jennifred Jones

Who says you can’t create something good? We’re all thinking constantly; crafting in our mind. How would it be if…

What if we let our thoughts begin to take shape? What if you decided you could make the project you’ve been dreaming about. What if you decided to allow yourself to pick up the brush or pen and draw something you’d been thinking…to put the colors you’ve seen in your mind on a canvas and hang it up…just for you? What if you decided to borrow a children’s foreign language book and begin to learn a new dialect? You’ve always thought of doing it. What if you looked for a music teacher to learn piano or singing or guitar as you’d dreamed of doing someday. What if you turned over 1 square foot of soil and planted a dozen daffodil bulbs to brighten your mornings next spring? What if you took your neighbor a small house plant to add a bit of life to their home?

What if you only swept off your front steps or porch? What if you washed the inside windows of your car? What if you organized your toolbox? It might inspire you to begin building the birdhouse your wife would love.

All these ‘what-ifs’ began with a thought. Good thoughts, many good thoughts go unimplemented – never carried out! How many good things never happened that could have if only we let them take shape.

Yes, we are shapers of thoughts. If it’s possible to do your good thought, get started. Then begin and finish another thought and keep them flowing.

Your good thought could be a turning point in someone’s life…maybe yours.

Now back to what I was thinking about…
