How is it going?  How is the morning stretching going?  Did you successfully drink your 3 glasses of water?  Did you read your Proverbs 31 verse?  What do you need to work on?

Every morning praise GOD for your life. Praise GOD for your breath.  Praise GOD for your family.  Praise GOD for you.  Focus your life toward the promises of GOD.  Focus your life toward the goodness of GOD. 

I realize that everyone's life is not perfect and everyone has situations but keeping your faith in GOD, you have hope.  If you think about it, everyone has a storm.  Some have a storm approaching, some are in a storm, and some are leaving a storm.  What makes the difference is the how you handle your storm.  Where are your eyes?  Remember, you are not alone.  If you do need help, there are several resources online, through your minister or spiritual leader, and media.  Life is not easy and GOD did not promise us that it would be a piece of cake, but He did promise to be with us.  Give it to GOD and let him worry about it.  I always say, if you can't sleep or fearful, give it to GOD for the night and let him take the night shift (I know he will not mind) so you can sleep.  If you can't sleep, do evening stretches (not exercises) and pray.  No one says you have to be on your knees.  Actually, you should pray continuously and this is just another opportunity. 

I will mention that if you are in a dangerous or fearful situation, please seek help.  GOD does not ask you to be a martyr or live in fear.  GOD loves you and wants you to be free and at peace.  Remember, I mentioned how your health and spiritual life are tied together.  If you are in fear or sad, your are not healthy in all areas.  Please seek help immediately.  You are on a journey and like any journey, there is the unknown but GOD is with you and will direct you.

Continue morning stretching and drinking 3 glasses of water.  FYI, cold water or water with lemon or lime is my favorite and drinking it with a colorful straw is fun.  If still having trouble, get a pitcher and keep it in your refrigerator.  When it is gone, you are done.  Another variation, put it in a crystal glass with cherries...

Be at peace,
Athena
