Do you know that you can determine your future by what you speak out your mouth?

Your words have power! When you speak doubt, unbelief, negative, sickness, anything against the word of God you activate the ENEMY, he can hear what we say, he will give you what you want. When you speak faith, healing, positive, Gods word you activate GOD, He can hear what we say, He will give you what you want!!!

This was a post I saw on my sweet friend’s facebook status that I just HAD to borrow and use as mine too! I completely believe this! I believe that we “see what we say”, as my pastor always says. I believe that words are the voice of the heart. So choose your words carefully! Once they are spoken, you can’t take them back! You can say I’m sorry but the damage is already done.

Are you speaking life, energy, encouragement and love into the people and situations around you? Or are you being an energy-drainer, tearing down dreams and bringing people down and situations around you?

I also believe that when you are consciously choosing your words that it changes your way of thinking, which will in turn change how you walk out your life! So watch your mouth my friends! You could be the only one to smile, speak kind words, or just have a positive attitude toward someone today!

Be sweet!

Love, kdee!

There are women who make things better…simply by showing up. There are women who make things happen. There are women who make their way. There are women who make a difference. And women who make us smile. There are women of wit and wisdom who- through strength and courage – make it through. There are women who change the world every day… women like YOU!  - written by Ashley Rice

I don’t believe in coincidence. I believe that things come into our path for a reason. So when a situation comes across your path, try to focus on the dynamics that YOU can control. And THAT only dynamic is YOU!   
Your behavior.   Your words.   Your actions.

We all have the right to our own feelings and beliefs. Our human nature makes us want to be “right”. We will fight to no end to prove that we are right about something. When in reality, both parties are right because that is the way they feel! How you process those feelings is what shows your character. There will always be situations in life that are not pleasant, uncomfortable and just plain ugly. But how you choose to let those moments define who you are is up to you! You cannot change the way someone else thinks or feels about something. If it is a situation directly involving you, your best defense is just to walk it out. People can think whatever they want about you but if your actions and behaviors show differently, that’s the proof of who you are.

Being in a mode of defense usually brings out the ugly side in people. This behavior tends to lead to a vicious cycle in relationships. Years of arguing and chaos, lying, cheating, denial, workaholics, alcoholics, drug addictions- it all becomes a pattern of destruction. But for some reason it becomes our “comfort zone”. We become used to it and just keep repeating the behaviors until it becomes toxic for everyone involved. It truly is a matter of choice. Choose to get off the rollercoaster ride. As Pastor Keith Craft of Elevate Life in Frisco, TX puts it, “Don’t take another lap!” You will continue to take laps until you “get it!” Until you finally realize that someone has to stop the cycle. And remember… the only dynamic that you can control is YOU. So you have to make the choice to stop the pattern of destruction, learn whatever lesson you need to learn from it and move forward to the next level in your life!
