Some of the beliefs I had was in order to be happy, I wanted to be married with children, have a wonderful career, a home out in the country and this list of my needs continued throughout my life.

A New Direction
When I started this Blog I knew I wanted to inspire people to a season of change. This is still my ultimate goal but I am moving in another direction. The more I write, I am learning and growing along with my readers. Please bare with me and note the site title has changed from thinking out loud to Scattered Thoughts. Thank you for your comments and support as I continue to develop into the person God has created me to be. Stay Tuned……..
THANKING GOD
Keep Thanking God in the Midst of the storms of life.
Thank him for his faithfulness and for his presence even through
the rough times
knowing you can lean on him through the trials
and testing of your faith
He is refining you like silver to become the person
he has created you to be
Live your life in a manner worthy of his calling
Don’t worry about what you can’t control
for he will perfect all that concerns us
Learn to be content and turn it over to the Lord
Just keep thanking God for all his goodness
Stand firm
A LIFE OF TRUTH
A life of truth is a life of freedom to be who you truly are
A life of truth is a life awakened to what’s going on in our world whether it’s climate change,
deforestation, animal extinction, wars and the likes
A life where you are truly connected to God in mind, body and soul
A life of discernment and wisdom to be the best you can be
A life where money does not define or control who you are based on your socioeconomic status
A life where responsibility is not wearing you down like a wet garment
A life where you are free to be who you want to be without the boundaries that sometimes confine us.
A life where your debts is not dictating your lifestyle
A life where people can share with one another and live in peace and harmony
A life where the color of a person, language, culture, ethnicity or anything that seeks to separate us does not exist
A life of truth is giving to those who are less fortunate
A life where technology, television commercials, and the trappings of this economy does not control our behavior as to who we are, what we want and what we would truly like out of our lives
A life where our souls are not for sale to the highest bidder
A life where we can walk through the flowers and trees and live lovingly and responsibly to all that God has created
A life of truth simply put can mean different things to different people but the bottom line is we are all connected to all that we see around us and as we experience life let us try to leave it a better place as we think about the consequences to our inaction
FEELING FREE
I look out of my window and what do I see
A squirrel eating nuts on the deck
just looking at me
I think about his life and I wonder how nice it must be
to wander through the trees and feeling free
No cares, No worries, No frustrations of life
He’s on a mission for nuts and feeling alright
I see him at play while he runs through the yard
with others like him they are playing real hard
Having fun feeling free with no care in the world
Sometimes I think of how nice it must be
to live in a world totally free
