The Most Important Thing – Pathways to Organization

Crown of Thorns and the Holy BibleI can’t believe that we have now traveled through 100 blogs together!  I am so thankful that I have been able to write these; that I have a husband who is kind enough and smart enough to post these; and that you have been supportive enough to keep these blogs going.

Since this blog site is called “Pathways to Organization” most of the blogs, of course, have been on helping you with organizing all the different areas of your life.  And, that is important.

But there is something even more important than any blog I could write: for you and I to never forget to sit before the Lord and listen to what He has to say to us, to pray and then follow Him in every area of our lives.

Christ said that the greatest commandment is to love the Lord with all our heart, with all our mind and all our soul.  Loving Him means being in a relationship with Him and that means we put Him first before anything else we could do.

That means before watching TV; before going out with friends; before our exercise or sport activities; before traveling; before playing on the computer or downloading music.

In fact, the Bible says that when we put God first in our life, all these things will come to us.  God has planned our lives already and wants to give us a life full of abundance.

I pray as we continue down this blog path together, that what I write and what you receive will totally bless you heart and your life!

“But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well.”  Matthew 6:33

    Time to Organize You! – Pathways to Organization

    By claiming Philippians 4:6-7 as a life verse: “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” When we pray and have gratitude, we cannot be critical or sinful at the same time. It’s so pointless because God has such beautiful plans for all His children.James 3:14-16 says: For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice.” We need to manage burnout. Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in god’s sight.” I also believe that God wants us to focus on our inner beauty as we get older.

    God Reverses the Curse – Pathways to Organization

    I pray that this week you will take time to be with the Lord with praise and great thanksgiving for taking away the sting of death and giving us new life! He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?” 2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3 but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’” 4 “You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. 5 “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” 6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.

    The Worth of Words – Pathways to Organization

    Here are some Bible verses about the power of words: Ephesians 4:29: Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. A famous quote from Maya Angelou says, “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” Let’s celebrate the Love Month of February with words of love and kindness. Manna from Heaven I pray these verses will bless you as you speak to your loved ones: Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O LORD, my rock and my redeemer.

    For God to Heal our Nation – Pathways to Organization

    If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. In 2 Chronicles 7:19-22, God says, “But if you turn away and forsake the decrees and command I have given you and go off to serve other gods and worship them, then I will uproot Israel from my land, which I have given them, and will reject this temple I have consecrated for my Name. … Because they have forsaken the Lord, the God of their ancestors, who brought them out of Egypt, and have embraced other gods, worshiping and serving them – that is why he brought all this disaster on them.” God means business when we worship ourselves and reject His Word.
