A warm New Year's hello to our Daily Favor friends and family, along with some new followers we've gained over the holiday season.
There is so much to share but at the moment we're in a standstill mode. My computer decided it didn't want to work anymore and quit back in November. No it didn't crash, it just stopped showing up for work! Since then we've been trying get it rebuilt, but found out that we needed an entire new system. Something not exactly in the budget, but God made a way! Neither my husband or I own a smart phone (on purpose) so we've been going to the library when we can (having access to a computer one hour per day), have used someone's lap top or my email to do any work. Thankfully my first grade cutting and pasting skills are in top order for patching this together! 😊 (... and I just learned to do that! How cool!) Up to the week before Christmas the computer has been in the repair shop with the technician. We finally got a new one but it doesn't have any programs. Saving what he could onto a disk we're trying to re-build from there.
All my files and the teaching series were on the old computer. Instead of getting frazzled or anxious, we're believing they weren't lost and I'll be able to present the new series to you soon. I am so sorry for the delay, but there isn't anything I can do but be patient as God works out all the "deets." As for now there is nothing on the new computer so hubby and the technician are "building" it into something I can use. In the meantime I really would appreciate your prayers that my books, drafts, articles, photos and all else were not lost. I am looking forward to sharing the events of the past few months with you and how God's faithfulness and goodness have been our sustaining mantle through it all. When we diligently seek the face of God, He crowns or bestows favor, peace, deliverance, hope and whatever else we need so that He may be glorified in every situation.
It is my prayer that God crowns His goodness on whatever you set your hands and mind to this year.
"You crown the year with Your goodness (God)." (Psalm 65:11)
Let me give you an insider's edge, it has to do with a refrigerator, vacuum, computer, phone, a few heaters, two cats and more! Oh yeah, people ... lots of people! ... a turkey and a ham ...
Until next time, God's favor remains faithful to those who seek Him.
Maybe you don’t know the Living God that I know, but would like to have this kind of favor in your life also.Click on the above tab “Tell Me About Jesus” for more information on becoming a child of the Savior.

It wasn’t a typical Labor Day
Weekend knowing come Tuesday morning my husband would undergo another procedure
in the hospital. Nonetheless, we were
bound to make it a good one without labor, even though the feast for the
holiday would consist of three sticks to his side with Lovenox injections.
Added to his menu were laxatives,
magnesium citrate bottles and a half gallon of orangeade.Monday’s breakfast would be his only meal
before the operation so I wanted to prepare something scrumptious.Getting up early I set out to make a hearty
meal of ground turkey, ground beef, potatoes and wonderful herbs all simmering
in a pot.My veggie meal somehow didn’t
smell as aromatic, but we each appreciated our chow.
After eating we thoroughly enjoyed
our day reading, writing and watching old movies or baking shows on You Tube before
retiring to bed early.Up at 6 o’clock
a.m. we began the daily routine and finished our chores before leaving the
house.

the bottom of this week’s post.
We arrived at the hospital by 7:30
a.m. (September 6th, 2016) as instructed and were escorted to the
waiting room for the GI department.Five
people were already there; apparently their loved ones had been taken into
surgery.I can’t imagine how early their
day must have begun.
About five minutes later my husband was taken into another
room where behind closed doors he completed more paperwork and changed into a
surgical gown.The nurse came to inform
me that right before he was taken into surgery I could go in to see him.
In the prep room we prayed together, kissed and said I love
you to one another.Then at 8:10 a.m. I
watched my husband being wheeled down the hall and out of sight.Returning to my chair I sat impatiently as
the clock ticked on, as if staring at it would make time go by faster.
60+ Minutes
The doctor said that the
procedure would only take about thirty minutes, which didn’t seem long at the
moment.I tried to keep myself occupied
by flipping through magazines not reading a word, walking up and down the hall
or replacing the voices in my head with the conversations of those around me.
I could tell that those seated
must have known one another based on the dialog they exchanged.It was a welcome interruption from the feelings
that were trying to surface within me.
Not focusing on what was
happening down the hall in surgery, I stood and walked across the room.There was a large picture hanging on the wall
that was crooked and off center.Peeking behind the frame I looked to see if it could be moved easily
without me knocking it to the floor.
I noticed a lady sitting nearby
watching which gave an opening for a somewhat humorous conversation.For the past year I’ve looked at that picture
hoping that someone would rehang it, but there it was … still as crooked as
ever.
Over the next hour the room
emptied one-by-one as the people returned from surgery.Now I was all alone … except for my thoughts.
I Called and He Heard Me
My mind was taking me to places a disciple of Jesus’ shouldn’t go, so I knew I had to get it in line with the Word of God.Although the procedures hubby was having done weren’t that difficult,
the concerns were that he was off his heart medication for almost a week.
After 30 minutes passed I grew
anxious hoping a nurse would come tell me he was in recovery.When an hour went by it was harder to control
my emotions and that’s when fellowship time with Jesus helped my faith to
overtake anxiety or fear from surfacing.
Stretching my legs I leaned over
a four foot tall side wall in the waiting room looking at the empty seats
before me.My conversation with the Lord
was hushed, almost voiceless, but an open plea for His presence to be made
known.That’s when a passage of
scripture came to mind from Psalm chapter 34.
I will praise the Lord at all times.
I will constantly
speak His praises. I will boast only in the Lord;
let all who are
helpless take heart.
Come, let us tell of the Lord’s
greatness;
let us exalt His name
together.
I prayed to the Lord, and He answered me.
He freed me from all my fears.
Those who look to Him for help will be radiant with joy; no
shadow of shame will darken their faces. In my desperation I prayed, and the Lord listened;
He saved me from all
my troubles.
For the Angel of the Lord is a guard;
He surrounds and
defends all who fear Him.
Taste and see that
the Lord is
good. Oh,
the joys of those who take refuge in Him!
Fear the Lord, you His godly people, for
those who fear Him will have all they need. Even strong young lions sometimes go hungry, but
those who trust in the Lord will lack no good thing.
(Psalm 34:1-10 NLT)
Surrounded by the Godhead
With all my being I’m trying to
comprehend what the first disciples encountered with each step of their new
life with Christ.Everything that my husband
and I are experiencing I’m approaching differently, analyzing how I dealt with
things before and how I am supposed to handle things with the wisdom of God
that’s flowing through my blood bought veins.
I’m not expected to walk in the
footprints of those who have gone before me, but make my own imprint for the
Lord learning from them as God directs my path.Understanding this has driven me to study, pray and ask more questions
along my journey.
Knowing that there wouldn’t be
anyone with me that morning physically, I had already made my requests before
the Lord asking that He would send someone as an encourager as I waited.Over and over I confessed the Word and with
each phrase the Holy Spirit was my Comforter.
I prayed to the Lord, and He answered me.
He freed me from all my fears.
My back was still facing the
outer hallway as I remained hunched over the side wall with my hands clasped
inside one another.Prayerfully I beckoned
to feel the Lord’s presence to help me remain steadfast and strong.With
my eyes closed, calmness overcame my anxiety as I took deep breaths and embraced
the moment.
For the Angel of the Lord is a guard;
He surrounds and
defends all who fear Him.
All of a sudden from behind I
felt warm arms wrapped around me, with radiant joyful sounds of delight
whispering in my ears.It was Chrissy,
an employee of the hospital from a different department.She didn’t know we were there, but was coming
from the cafeteria.Seeing me from a
distance, Chrissy ran to embrace me with kindness and words of encouragement …
just as I prayed!
Those who look to Him
for help will be radiant with joy; no
shadow of shame will darken their faces. In my desperation I prayed, and the Lord listened;
He saved me from all
my troubles.
Healing of the Mind
If we continue to search what it means to be a disciple we cannot leave out the part where “Jesus
healed them all.”As the selection grew
to twelve disciples, each witnessed first-hand the power of healing and casting
out demons by Jesus Christ.Once their
faith fully kicked in, they were able to do the same things.
They saw people just touching
Jesus’ garment and being healed, and a key point in all of this is that they
heard with their own ears the words of Jesus telling the people, “You’re faith
has made you whole."What an opportunity
that had to be with the Master.
Fast forward to today.Is healing taught, shown or manifested in your
church or in the circles you travel?Probably
not that much; as a matter of fact most denominations shy away from the subject
of healing.
There is another area or part of
healing I’d like to address.Did you
realize that you could call on the Lord to heal and free you from fear or
anxiety as well?
“Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits."
(Psalm 103:2 NKJV)
When we receive Christ as our
Savior our spirits are born again or “changed”, however our body and mind
remain the same.It is our faith in the
ability of Jesus that changes spirit, soul and body.Being grounded in the Word of God helps us to
understand what benefits we have as believers.Time spent reading the Bible allowed my mind
to draw on the correct passage of scripture when I needed it.
If I hadn’t known that the Lord
surrounds those who fear (are reverent to) Him, my emotions could have run wild
causing my prayers to be ineffective.Over and over believer’s witness and testify of their healing from
sickness, disease or illness, but little do we hear of people calling on the
Lord to help overcome their emotions.
Since we still live in our
earthly flesh bodies, at times we may experience bouts of fear, anxiety or
depression.It is our responsibility to take captive all
those thoughts so that they don’t cause us to sin by giving in to them.
“Casting down
arguments and every high thing that exalts itself
against the knowledge
of God, bringing every thought into
captivity to the
obedience of Christ …”
(2 Corinthians 10:5 NKJV)
As true followers of Jesus we
have to believe that He is with us at all times, standing by us at work, home
or even in a hospital waiting room.He
is always available, because just like the early disciples, our journey and
calling relies on His presence.
This Week’s Challenge:
Call on the Real God Squad
As we learn to be the kind of disciple Jesus needs us to
be in this age, each lesson should churn the desire to be more like
Christ.I have no doubt that every
believer comes to a turning point in life where their faith is tested concerning
what God can really do.If we are to be
like our Master, we have to believe He can do all things pertaining to our spirit,
soul and body.
Our challenge this week requires modern day disciples to
call on the God squad – Father, Son and Holy Spirit to meet emotional needs.The undisciplined mind is a playing field for
the devil, and when he gains access to the court he will try whatever it takes
to cause us to surrender our thought life to negative things that don’t breed
life.
Whenever your mind starts to wander onto the unguarded fear
or anxiety road, be mindful of Who guards, surrounds and defends you at that
very moment.
For the Angel of the Lord (Jesus) is a guard;
He surrounds and
defends all who fear Him.
Remember that God has promised that those who turn to Him
for their help in times of crisis or difficulty will be favored with inner joy
that will change the outward appearance.When we pray He listens and saves us from our situation the way we need
to be saved (not the way we think He should handle things).
Those who look to Him
for help will be radiant with joy; no
shadow of shame will darken their faces. In my desperation I prayed, and the Lord listened;
He saved me from all
my troubles.
The surgery on my husband did run a little longer than
expected, but I didn’t find out why I had to wait well over an hour until
yesterday (Sept 15th).Upon
returning to the step-down unit for recovery, hubby asked to use the rest room.After
being escorted to the facility by the nurses, he closed the door and immediately
fell asleep for fifteen minutes!I guess
it’s only fair since he just found out who showed up in the waiting room when
he read this post.
I didn’t know who would show up that day or even if
anyone would in the natural.However, I
did know that God the Father heard my prayer and I exalted Him over any
emotion. His Son Jesus was present and
the Holy Spirit gave my soul comfort.
You don’t have to “go it” alone.Joyfully glorify, bless and exalt the Lord as
He makes His presence known.Jesus is on
the journey with you and is always ready for action.He is willing to heal and save you from ALL
your troubles … all you need to do is have faith in His ability to do it.
Maybe you don’t know the Living God that I
know, but would like to have this kind of favor in your life also.Click on the above tab “Tell Me” for more

Midnight was minutes away and I had yet to tackle the
dishes.I had gotten behind on my daily
chores due to a phone call and whipping up some green smoothies.
My husband couldn’t sleep.He was feeling anxious from the new meds and
came out into the kitchen.
“I’ve never felt this way before. It’s
awful.I’m feeling so anxious I could
scream!” said hubby.
Trying to be sympathetic to his feelings, I had a quick solution to take his mind off what he was experiencing.

you and how Daily Favor has worked in your life.Contact me by leaving a message in the box at
the bottom of this week’s post.
I kept at the
dishes while he stood there watching, and then I chimed in with a less than
sympathetic voice.“If you’re feeling anxious you can wipe the dishes.”The next thing I saw was him back on the
couch going to sleep.Guess he wasn’t
that anxious after all.
Getting back to
my task I started thinking about the people Paul the Apostle was talking to
when he said for them not to be anxious about anything in Philippians 4:6-9.What were they so up in arms about that the
message of their emotions made it back to him in prison?
Twenty after
twelve I returned to the living room to check how my husband was doing.This time I found him missing!Have you ever gone to look for someone but
couldn’t find them, then thought that the rapture took place and you were still
here?Have to admit I have in the past …
a bit scary.
Anyway, he had
gone into the bedroom and was sitting on the edge of the bed rocking back and
forth with his arms clinched to his chest.I inquired about his actions thinking something was wrong.When he repeated his dilemma I gave him the
same option.“If you’re still feeling anxious come dry the dishes.”This time he took me up on my offer.
Moving on …
The next day
seemed to be a repeat of the fidgets, so I tried to come up with creative
things to occupy my husband’s thoughts. For the most part it workedkeeping his mind on
faith not fear. That night we decided to have pizza for dinner (OK, it wasn’t a
“we” thing, but I really like pizza.)Since
Pizza Hut was just across the road, (literally one minute) I thought it might
be a good time for him to see if he could drive.
When he returned
home all he could do was fret over how bad the “newly installed” brakes
were.For the past two months I’ve been
saying they weren’t right, but he didn’t believe me.Now he did, but this new info only added to
his anxiety all over again and we were back to square one.
Nip Anxiety in
the Bud
Over the next
few days I began scanning my old textbooks to see what I could do to help my
spouse get out of his mood.I was aware
of the side effects from medications and even that most people who have open
heart surgery experience some form of anxiety.
Could I be doing something else
besides redirecting his thoughts when he begins to fall into what could be
called clinical depression? My actions would remind me of how Barney on Andy Griffith would settle something. How can this
be nipped in the bud before it takes root in the soul?
For many years
people have come to me about dealing with anxiety and/or depression. Most can
be walked through it step-by-step without medication if they have a sounding
board (someone to talk with) to communicate on a regular basis.This is what I would like to share with you
in this writing.
High Anxiety
Feelings of
anxiety are no stranger to today’s society and aren’t restricted to just
adults.It has become widespread in all
age levels due to stress in every avenue of life whether it is financial,
social, relational or cultural.
The Bible refers to it being caused by feelings
of guilt or judgment (resulting in worry, anxiety or fear), but it also shares
methods of dealing with this type of phobia.
Did you know
that people who live with anxiety issues have more health problems? Their
percentage levels are generally 10%-30% higher when it comes to back pain, acid
reflux, allergies, asthma, fatigue and migraines, because their immune systems
are always being challenged.
Anxiety levels heighten
when feelings of guilt, fear or worry appear, but calmness returns when these
same feelings are under control.No
wonder these emotions play such a vital part of our overall mental, physical
and spiritual wellness.
There was a song
called “High Anxiety” from a film of the same name. Although I never saw it, I
certainly heard the song in which the theme was that the person had no
alternative but to give into the feeling of being anxious.I disagree with this theory, because it’s
totally against what the Bible says we are to do if we believe in God.
Ask a stream of
questions to any person that has experienced temporary to severe anxiety issues,
and they will tell you one specific thing that escapes their feelings of
security. The feeling of peace is what gets lost in the shuffle of emotions,
and the base of that is fear.
Warning Signs
What keeps a
person in anxiety levels is that they forgo all surrounding reality except things
that relate to them directly. Their focus is totally on self, therefore finding
solutions can be difficult if they are not willing to step outside of their own
minds.They literally think differently,
and in that frame of mind they begin to believe what they are thinking to be
truth.
Let’s be fair about
this, never brush off anyone who is suffering with feelings that trigger
anxiety, worry or fear.When these
emotions arise, it is a warning sign that something has gone wrong in the body mentally,
chemically, physically or spiritually.
Many times these
emotional feelings are valid, but the person doesn’t know how to get them under
control.This is where we of like faith
need to step in to help our siblings in Christ overcome what they are
experiencing.
Scripture tells
how Paul discussed these emotions according to the gospel, and how we have the
power through Christ Jesus to overcome whatever the devil is feeding our
thought life.
“Don’t
worry (be anxious, fret or fear) about anything; instead pray about everything.
Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will
experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand.His peace will guard your hearts and minds as
you live in Christ Jesus.”(Philippians 4:6-7 NLT emphasis mine)
When we invite God into our “feelings” (emotions and
concerns), it allows His peace to rule over whatever we are experiencing.The situation or circumstance doesn’t always
change at that time, but the way we handle it does.
Instead of being ruled by what we feel in the flesh, we
are to guard ourselves in every manner with God’s peace.Think of it as you would if you were wearing
God’s armor. If you wear His boots of peace, you would be walking in peace
literally, so all your steps should be peaceful ones.Anxiety cannot live in the same space as
peace, it’s that simple.
Mind Control
Do you think it is possible to control your
thoughts?It may be impossible to
control every thought that comes into your mind, but we do have control over
what we choose to think about.Once a
thought enters the mind we have the power to give it birth or to “kill” it.Dwelling on unlovely, ungodly things gives
life to the thought, so it is important we have a way to counter those thoughts
that invade our thinking.
The Word of God is the main tool we need for squashing thoughts
that lead to anxiety, worry or fear, which if it’s given life, it is actually a
sin. Jesus shared this with His disciples and His early followers in Matthew 6:25-34.If we are thinking on things that unsettle
us, we are not thinking about what God says on the subject are we?
And
now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is
true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think
about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.Keep putting into practice all you learned
and received from me (Paul through Christ Jesus) – everything you heard from me
and saw me doing.Then the God of peace
will be with you. (Philippians 4:8-9 NLT)
Changing
Thoughts, Changing Minds
It’s true
whether you want to admit it or not; worry/anxiety is a habit of the mind! So
our ultimate goal for winning over these emotions is to literally change our
mind about what we dwell on concerning our thought life.
Did you know that
it is impossible to think on more than one thing at a time?It is also hard to deliberately think on the
same thing for fifteen minutes.Try it,
you can’t do it. You may start out
thinking on one thing, but before you know it your mind has drifted onto a ton
of other subjects.
You have to redirect your thoughts back to the thing you
started out thinking.Our own prayers
are witness to this. How many times have you thought about something else when
you were in prayer?No need to answer
that.
Knowing this to
be so, we can change our patterns of thinking so that when anxiety, worry or
fear knocks on our brains, we give it no entrance!The opportunity to “think on these things” (as
Apostle Paul noted), emerges and we can open that door.
Distract
Yourself from Anxiety
Tuesday travels
gave light to the tunnel of gloom.We had
contacted a person who had made requests for litter buckets and were in
position to give them to her.Vet
clinics and pet rescue facilities are never short on these pails and are
pleased if they can be recycled.
Once more we set
the pick-up in the Walmart parking lot.It was too hot to stay in the car, so I decided to set them up on the
back of the car.Instead of standing
next to the vehicle, my husband and I found shelter and shade on a bench
outside the entrance door of the store.From that position we could keep watch on the car as we waited to make
delivery.
I wish I had my
camera at that time. It was hilarious to see the responses of people as they
strolled past the trunk of the car.Some
shoppers circled, side stepped, back stepped, turned around or stood by the
vehicle glaring at the closed buckets.What was going through their minds was clear on their faces, and had us
to the point of laughing.
After that day
my husband’s level of anxiety practically disappeared, because he had
transferred/replaced those negative thoughts into peaceful ones.Basically, he allowed himself to become
distracted from the anxiety issues by focusing on something else.
God’s Word can take
hold of anxiety, fear or worry and put those emotions under the work of the
cross, like Christ said for us to do. The power is in believing what we say we
believe about the Bible, then acting on it.
Being optimistic
about the favor and blessings for us as Christians is important if we are to do
what scripture says, and truly be anxious for nothing no matter what that may
be.Our ultimate hope is provided through
the peace of God, which passes all we could possibly understand about our
emotions or how we are to deal with them.
This Week’s
Challenge:
Kicking the Habit of
Anxiety (fear & worry)
The Word of God
explains that as believers we really don’t need to let the cares of this world
overwhelm us, but sometimes that’s not so easy. Having someone to share our feelings
with, who is spiritually grounded, will help us live out what we say we believe.
Whether it is
you or someone else dealing with anxiety, this week’s challenge will have us learning
how to identify the source and not give it place in our thinking.
We’re going to
focus on four things. First we need to identify what kind of anxiety is trying
to overtake our thoughts.Don’t ignore
it. Is it worry, fear, panic or
separation anxiety?Are you or the
person on medications aware that this may be a side effect?Is there caffeine use or drugs/drinking
involved?
Second has us
looking at practical applications for a solution to overcoming anxiety.Discuss what brought on those feelings (Was
guilt a factor, etc.?). What can I (you/we) do to deal with these emotions
according to what was recently learned in the Bible and in godly teaching/counsel?
Third, how does
this relate to faith and believing what we say we believe about God’s Word? If we really believed, would we be acting like
this?
Finally, our
mind will always go somewhere, so we have to make sure it focuses on the right things by redirecting our thoughts. There are times when ridding of
unwanted feelings can be as simple as doing something physical such as: getting
more sleep, exercising, watching something funny (life is funny, go observe it)
or participating in a new hobby/activity.
Identify
Practical Applications
Faith Check
Redirect Thoughts
There are occasions
when we need to be redirected in the way we think about the promises of God, as
being real and available to all who believe. For those who walk by faith and not by sight, we are to stand in the gap and remind our beloved family in Christ
that they are not alone.
Learn how to be
a “distractor of anxiety” by reassuring others that these “feelings” are
temporary. God will deliver them, because they walk by faith in His wonderful
favor and blessings as His child.
Be encouraged, peace really can be one thought away!
Maybe you don’t know the Living God that I
know, but would like to have this kind of favor in your life also.Click on the above tab “Tell Me About Jesus” for more
