Good morning, so often we take life for granted. Anxiety, fear, and stress very well get in the way every single day. I try to remember, live each day, as if there were not many many more days left. What I mean is, as humans we tend to think that we will have thousands upon thousands of more days. Hopefully, we will. However, we have to make the most of each day no matter what the circumstances are. When we look at our problems, failures, or stress, we simply canât enjoy the day. We think about whatâs wrong or what has happened in the past. It gets in the way of our performance or happiness. You have to put aside whatever is stressing you out and seize the day, as they say. Our emotions can get to us. The Bible tells us that the heart is deceitful above all else.
Does your busy schedule make you feel stressed? So many times just thinking about all we have to do can simply stop us from having a good day.âď¸ Keep in mind, that no matter what, today is your day, make the most of it.
I have been in the worst situation before, on a ventilator, and couldnât move (after the accident that I was in as a teenager). I have had to communicate by writing only and couldnât eat for almost a month. However, I felt the Lordâs presence guiding me through it. I felt him telling me to just hold on every moment and to keep on going. I made it through, things got better, and there have been many brighter days.đ
God is in your corner, he wants to help see you through it. Donât be afraid to call on his name. We live in an ever-changing world where things are always evolving. Meaning, very (good) things are always possible.đđđ
Have a great day!

The moon is so beautiful. I love the moon and all itâs wonder. Everything God does is perfect.⨠We can only see the moonđ because of the light of the sunâď¸. Depending upon which part of the moon the sun shines upon, that is all we can see of itđ. The moon goes through different phases. It takes the moon 27 days to rotate the earth one time. It takes the earth a whole day to rotate onceđ. As you know, it takes the earth 365 days to rotate around the sunâď¸ once. The sun provides us with so much! We really canât live without it. If it were any closer to the earthâs oceans, they would melt. God is perfect, though, and so is his design.đ The sunâsđ gravity pulls the earth toward it! Itâs amazing how gravity works perfectly with the earth, moon, and sun!đ
âThe moon’s gravity pulls at the Earth, causing predictable rises and falls in sea levels known as tides. Low tides occur between these two humps. The pull of the moon is also slowing the Earth’s rotation, an effect known as tidal braking, which increases the length of our day by 2.3 milliseconds per century.â Days are longer now, according to Google.com. Whatâs amazing is how we figured all this out. Isaac Newton changed the way we understand the universe. He discovered the laws of gravity and motion by watching an apple drop to the ground. God doesnât keep secrets from us. Get this, all the laws of physics were figured out through this discovery, and even more so, all of the universe(s) follow the same Laws of Physics that we do! Itâs amazing how obvious God makes some things to us. Gravity is holding all things together.
