You Have What it Takes
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“For God is the one who provides seed for the farmer and then bread to eat. In the same way, He will provide and increase your resources and then produce a great harvest of generosity in you”
(2 Corinthians 9:10, NLT)
TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
When Jesus sent His disciples out to heal the sick, meet their needs, and share the Gospel, He told them, “Give as freely as you have received” (Matthew 10:8). In other’s words, God has given you everything you need to do what He’s called you to do in this life. He has equipped you to be successful and has empowered you to overcome in this life. He’s given you seed to sow in order to have an abundant harvest in your future. You have what it takes!
God has placed seed in your hand today, but in order for that seed to produce, it has to be planted. It has to be watered. It has to be fertilized. Today, ask God to show you where to plant your seed. Make sure you are sowing in the right ground and tending to the seed He has given you. Remember, God has a good plan for your future. He has plans to bless you and increase you. Today, you have what it takes to move forward and receive the blessing He has prepared for you!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father in heaven, thank You for equipping me for every good work. Thank You for giving me good seed to sow! I invite You to guide my every step by Your precious Holy Spirit. Thank You for choosing me to be a part of Your plan. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Okay, I had to post this today as I am standing strong in our Lord. If you do read this post…I am starting a new blog at
http://addicatedtopaxil.blogspot.com/ Jackie‘s new blog Paxil
The reason I am doing this is to vent my mad mind as I am on day 15 OFF Cold Turkey from PAXIL.
I am not and I mean NOT happy. I am in a detox stage. All the prayers you have will be so nice.
“If it were not for BAD LUCK, I’d Have NO LUCK at all….” This is how I FEEL TODAY.
Nothing is going right and I mean NOTHING.
Bless all of YOU.

I feel you with the med. situation. I take Prozac for Depression myself and was off it for about 2 weeks. I’m back taking it now…I can’t get off of it completely. I have tried many times in the past to go off it and HAVE been off it for months before. But then the depression gets so bad that I start taking it out on everyone and I just have to take it for the sake of myself AND others.
So I say Good Luck to you while going through detox…I hope that you are able to make it through and you’re able to function well without it once you’re done detoxing.
I understand how hard it is and I feel for you deeply right now. You’re in my prayers!

I told the doctor I wanted to get off the meds because I was feeling better and coping and functioning quite well. She asked “What do you take each morning?” “My meds.” I answered. Her reply, “That’s why you feel better dummy.;”

This is inspiring. For those of us that are comfortable. I would present that it is not so inspiring if you are a father and husband that has been laid of, lost family health insurance has a daughter with leukemia and will be evicted on the 31st. There must be 10 million Americans living in such crisis. I find it very hard to tell people to have faith that the Lord will provide.

Oh do I hear ya, but I guess I should share my story: but this is not the reply or post to do it. But I lost everything and moved into a motel and last yr by May 28th found this place to live in. But all of the above applies to me.
