 "And He will walk beside you through every problem and difficulty you face."

- Norman Vincent Peale

 

Lately, there have been many opportunities for going beyond where I thought I could.  I've needed more creative ways to go about projects at work, prioritizing my time to give to others, and building up more confidence to solve some of my most difficult challenges.
 
When I turn to certain places in the Bible, I am joyfully surprised by how God works in my day-to-day and moment-to-moment activities.  I know He is always with me!   
  

"When I awake, I am still with thee" - Psalm 139:18

 
All it takes to become more confident, creative and happy is to recognize in myself what God gave me and designed me to be.  Sometimes however, it is easier said than done.  That's when I turn to prayer, verses in the Bible, and I go back to all that I learned from Norman Vincent Peale about how thinking changes things.  

 

"I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made." - Psalm 139:14

 
God really did make us 'wonderfully' and we are His masterpiece - perfect in His eyes in  every way.  This alone can give us the ability to move through our day with renewed strength and motivation to accomplish just about anything mentally, physically and spiritually.  Have you ever had a day when you felt as if you were praying in every moment, or asking the Lord's advice with every move you make?  Recently, I have and it is very powerfully working in my daily life.  Functioning throughout the day in this manner allows me to make positive steps and create the kinds of outcomes God intended.  This I know for sure... God is with me in every moment, and He is with you!


In the booklet How to Have a Good Day Every Day, Dr. Peale gives guidance on how to find the faith to deal with life's toughest problems, and it is written as an action manual.
 
I personally love this booklet, and I especially love the first of the seven action steps - How to Wake Up Creatively.  Every moment, we are 'creating' even when we may not think so.  Even the simplest of things like folding wash, responding to an email or praying, certainly is creative.  It all is!  

 

Here are the Seven Action Steps to make part of your day right now:Good Day

 

      1. How to Wake Up Creatively
      2. Conditioning the Mind
      3. I Am Going to Like People
      4. Keeping Emotions Under Control
      5. Spiritual Opportunities
      6. Aids in Feeling Healthy
      7. The Important Final Moments

 

God masterfully created you to live your life powerfully and confidently.  Be all you are designed to be and have a good day every day!
