Your Idea

Ideas! Ideas! Ideas! We all have ideas. They’re like little brainstorms happening inside our heads!

Some are mere passing rain clouds while others just might have something to them. Examine the passing clouds and see if their waters hold any weight! Yours might be the next helpful idea to get you through. Or maybe it’s for your company or family situation that will move you forward.

I have many, many ideas about so many things and sometimes voicing them as ‘some crazy idea of mine’…yet is it always crazy? Maybe it was just what I needed!!!

‘Nah, they won’t be interested. That wouldn’t work. It’s too far out! How could I do that? Could it really happen?’…and we discredit the idea rather than think about it more… Another good idea thrown to the wind!

Everything done and made began as somebody’s ‘big idea’.

Like what???

  • Every painting you see
  • Every house built
  • Every sink or stove or washing machine or blender or coffee pot!
  • Every wallpaper, piece of fabric, paint color
  • Every loaf of bread, spaghetti, or sauce
  • Even the different types of plants and flowers that were crossbred to make a different color

You name it, somebody made it! But it began with their idea first!

Think again. You’ve got a life full of creations if you begin with your good ideas and carry through.

Don’t hold yourself back. Just get started and keep moving!

Now, about that idea I was thinking…

What’s Wrong with Me Looking Good?

Most of the women I read about in God’s word were beautiful women. God made them – so it must be okay with Him.  Even the men were made strong and handsome.

Job 42 says of his 3 daughters, “There were none found so fair in all the land as Job’s daughters.” Incidentally, one of them was named Jemimah – remember Aunt Jemimah? Good things 🙂

I believe God wants his human beings to take time for themselves to look good, to put on a good face, to be attractive not only for themselves but for the world to notice. To let the beauty of God’s human creation show!

I’m not talking looking sexy, save that for your spouse. (That also is part of God’s design). But taking time for our more public appearance – man or woman – is part of our responsibility. Casual is okay, but why choose sloppy?

Plus, when we take care of ourselves we feel better!

Let’s start out this new week looking good!
