I’ve learned… by Maya Angelou

I’ve learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I’ve learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights. I’ve learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you’ll miss them when they’re gone from your life. I’ve learned that making a “living” is not the same thing as making a “life.” I’ve learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I’ve learned that you shouldn’t go through life with a catcher’s mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back. I’ve learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I’ve learned that even when I have pains, I don’t have to be one. I’ve learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back. I’ve learned that I still have a lot to learn. I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

I love this quote by Maya Angelou and wanted to share it. 😁

Bloom where you’re planted Bible journaling

Here’s a Bible journaling page I did 2 years ago in my mini happy planner. 😁

“God has planted you where you’re at for a reason. Bloom where you are planted. Don’t try to move until you’ve bloomed where you’re at. Fruit-bearing and spiritual maturity go hand in hand.” – Joyce Meyer

You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you and I have appointed you [I have planted you], that you might go and bear fruit and keep on bearing, and that your fruit may be lasting [that it may remain, abide], so that whatever you ask the Father in My Name [as [a presenting all that I Am], He may give it to you. – John 15:16, AMPC

To write means more than putting pretty words on a page…

“To write means more than putting pretty words on a page; the act of writing is to share a part of your soul with the world.” – unknown

This is why I feel called to write. God has given me a love for journaling and poetry. I find it very therapeutic, but he’s also given me a desire to want to share my testimony with others. One of my spiritual gifts is encourager. So, I want to share my story with others in hopes that I can encourage someone else with some of the experiences that I’ve gone through.
