 I have to focus 

On goodness

My mind

Is spiraling 

With what if’s 

Reigning it 

Back in

With gratitude 

I want my way

And God 

Says no ma’am

    1. That's why we don't follow religion but have a personal relationship with Christ!

  13. This is something I fight every day. Taking my thoughts captive and choosing God's will over mine.

  21. I have found or rather I'm finding that when God says no, He always has something better for me.
    Also saying no always leaves room for me to grow in my faith.

  22. Yielding - it's such a sweet moment doing that - in that moment is peace and joy.

  23. Um não, desafia-nos a pensar em alternativas...
    Acho que será a palavra que menos gostamos de ouvir... a que ouviremos mais ao longo da vida... e a que nos faz darmos o nosso melhor em muitas áreas...
    Adorei as suas palavras, Regine, de uma autenticidade sempre admirável! Beijinhos
