 Monday’s Message
Picture
Oh, my goodness, what an inspiration our Abby is! Today’s message was written from her hospital bed. See, Abby suffers from Crohn’s Disease, a horrible disease that attacks the body viciously but one thing it can’t do is take away the spirit, the heart!
Thanks for joining us for Coffee Hour with Chicklit Power and Monday’s Message with Abby and Trench Classes United.
I was so blown away, humbled by her generosity despite her adversity! I trust you will be too.
He is my rock                                                              He quenches my thirst
My fortress                                                                 and heals my disease
In all times of need                                                     my disease of becoming ungrateful
                                                                                    unable to see
                                                                        how much in this life He has truly given me
 
Food to eat                                                                  Soak into me
Songs to sing                                                               Your everlasting love
His Word to drink                                                        The ultimate gift from above
                                                                                    Oh Lord, You are my beloved
                                                                                    Forgive me
 
For being a human                                                      Your love
Merely unable to see                                                  It never ceases for me
How Your goodness & mercy flows into me              Always chasing after me
It heals me 
It seeks me 
 
I fall to Your feet                                                         Out to the world I promise to send it
Forgive me;                                                                 Always lend it
I thirst for Your Word                                                             to those in need
Quench me;                                                                In need of Your light
Let your light flow into me                                         In longing for Your love
 
Lord, let your Spirit reach into me; Heal me; send me 
Love,
Abby

Today, choose gratitude over an ‘attitude’! EL

Tuesday’s Truth

Since we are born with and in this fleshly tent, our innate tendency and propensity may not always be gratitude, but instead, we may flaunt a nasty attitude. Wouldn’t it be awesome to use some reverse psychology on our minds? What do I mean by that? Well, the other day, I had to drive allllllllllllllllllllllllllllll the way to Baldwin Park (about 75 miles away) for a deposition that I knew was only going to go 30 minutes, maybe an hour at the most. I caught myself complaining, and then began to trick myself by saying, I get to drive to Baldwin Park and while stuck in traffic, I’m going to study my memory verse flash cards.
You know what happened?
He so blessed me with a request for an expedited transcript which meant that I would make almost twice the amount of money I would have made without it!
God honors gratitude and frowns on a negative attitude!

Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving

11/21/2018

Wednesday’s word
Picture
Twas the night before Thanksgiving and all through the house
Every creature was stirring, including the mouse
Everyone was working on all of the fixings
The noise and smells were coming from the kitchen
 
The children were busy with their tablets and toys
Captured in their games, they made not a noise
While the adults laughed and worked all collectively
What a beautiful sight it was for any heart to see
 
When all of a sudden there arose such a clatter
Mom ran to the kitchen to see what was the matter
She looked to the left and she looked to the right
She couldn’t believe what was in plain sight
 
There was broken glass from a favorite platter
And at first glance, she knew it didn’t matter
Everyone was frozen, waiting for her reaction
But she didn’t give the devil that satisfaction
 
The counters were a mess, preparations everywhere
It looked as though a tornado had just gone thru there
The turkey had flown from the platter to the floor
The poor thing looked like it just couldn’t take no more
 
The stove was a disaster waiting to happen
full of pots and pans, handles overlapping
The old mom would have immediately gotten on her broom
And painted the atmosphere with a bit of doom and gloom
 
But the new and improved mom was no longer that way
For she had learned the true meaning of Thanksgiving Day
She stared at each of them and the mess they surrounded
Knowing her response would leave each one of them astounded
 
Now sons, now daughters, in-laws and friends like family
Is this ever a sight for the eyes of my heart to see?
More than the chaos, the mess on the floor
The memories we’re making are worth so much more
 
So grab a rag, and a dishtowel too
Here’s one for each and every one of you
Let’s work together in cleaning up this mess
It will only take a few minutes or less
 
Pick up the turkey, and we’ll wash him off
We’ll stuff him but good and put him in the trough
We’ll baste him all over, and get him ready to eat
No one will ever know we stepped on his feet
 
And when the morrow comes and we gather for the meal
We’ll be able to discern what matters and what’s real
Faith, family, friends, love and laughter
Help to bring us all the happily ever after
 
I looked to each of them with tears in my eyes
And said something I had just realized
Oh, why can’t it be Thanksgiving every day?
Loving each other in a Christ-like way
 
Patience, self-control, love and joy too
Are there for the asking for each of you
We don’t have to wait for a holiday to see
That Christ’s greatest gift is that of family
 
Praying you enjoy your Thanksgiving, no matter what circumstances you are in, no matter who you are with … or not with!
Thankfully,
Kim-Evinda
