Let's Make everyday count!!!

To God be the glory for he is the head of my life! Why do Christians start off with that greeting? Greetings are important.

GREETINGS

greetingsplural of greet·ing (Noun)

Noun:
  1. A polite word or sign of welcome or recognition.
  2. The action of giving such a sign.


Here are some Greetings:
What up! Good Morning, Hello, Hi there, How are you, How are you doing, How's it going, Howdy, Salutations or Cheek Kiss, High Five, Handshake
Shalom (shah-LOHM)
Hebrew. Literally, peace. A way of saying "hello" or "goodbye."


As I learned in Services at GFT that the Benediction is important.  

Benediction
Cover over what you received from the Word.
Peace be unto you 
I usually say Peace, Grace and Blessings! Goodbye see you later.
My grandmother Lucille never said goodbye.
So first impressions are lasting impressions. And what you leave others with is far greater than what you said with the time in there presences. 

I have to establish a better way to greet others and leave a great impact when I depart.
How do I do that?

2012- Welcome to my life

2012 is alive and kicking!!! Life is trying to kick my butt but God!!! God is cleaning me inside and out. I have been contained, blocked, hidden for so long and he wants me to come out of my  cocoon. This butterfly wants to be free! He is tearing down this walk.  My stuff is hitting the fan.  I have so many blessings and I just need to thank God for where I am. I need to stop saying if I had...or of I was or...I wish that I... So what I don't but I will!!! He has opened so many doors. I am the one who closes it. Now it is time to just stop the madness!  People believe in me and I know there is greatness in me.  It is coming out!  So I give God all my praise!!!

To be continued.......

Theatre is Spiritual

Theatre is Spiritual
Nov 26, 2011
I love Theatre because theatre is so spiritual. As actors, if we as a person have a lot of baggage and our character does not, we have to put on a mask and leave that baggage outside the stage doors and act like nothing is wrong. Just like with God, no matter what is going on in out lives we have to leave the baggage with him and give him the glory through all the trouble. We have to be happy when we just want to break down and cry. We have to thank him for the good as well as the bad. Because we know that everything is in God’s plan.
Life is theatre and Theatre is Life. Things we learn in Theatre can help us in life.

Life is a Stage and we are players in it. We put on a nonstop production everyday.

God is the only Producer, Director and designers. He made us. He provides us with nourishment for our bodies, clothes on our backs, roofs over our heads and all our hearts desire.

We think that we are the directors of our own plays.
The play ends when we leave our flesh on earth. It is up to us if we are going to end it happily ever after or forever never happy. The director gives us a script; dialogue, lyrics, and stage directions of a musical or play; to live by and it is called The BIBLE. Live by this and the actor will never wonder about the ending of their play.

Developing our character or Building our story.
God lets us interpret our characters. And the technique to use is up to us. He lays the foundation, the Word of God, but he wants us to use the right materials. We can change wants in the script only by changing what we are doing. He allows us to start a new situation or scene in our play. He wants our character have resolution and resolve. A scene is division of an act, usually denoting a change in time or place; can also be the descriptor for the locale of a play.

We are each stories and everyone around us are actors who play characters in our lives.
We play characters in other people’s stories as well. The play has only one plot, although it has many different subplots, and it is to live the way God wants us to live. The script never changes because God knows what we are going to do before we do it.
No one’s story is better than the other. Whether we know it or not we are all players in everyone’s play. If we know them or not. We just play different roles. People come in our lives for a reason.
We have to influence our atmosphere. Bad people in our lives are bad things we have not dealt with.
Playing various of characters
We try to play different characters. We have to remember characters never change but our lives change. When we do this, we try to alter our scripts (life). We are trying to be the director. God steps in and put conflicts in our paths to remind us that he is always in control. We must follow God’s director. We start thinking that other people are the directors. They are only actors.
God’s stage manager is Jesus. Matthew 1:21 says, “And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.” Everything of God must be glorified through Jesus Christ. Jesus, the stage manager, came to make the production process run much easier.

Jesus when left he left is with another stage manager, the Holy Spirit. John 14:26 says, “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.”
