Happiness is being a peacemaker!!!

Matthew 5:9
Blessed (enjoying enviable happiness, spiritually prosperous— with life-joy and satisfaction in God’s favor and salvation, regardless of their outward conditions) are the makers and maintainers of peace, for they shall be called the sons of God!

   I’m sure you’ve heard it said before that ‘life is short,” so you’d better enjoy it! But how do you do that with bills piling up, children that never stop needing things, the house is falling apart, the car is acting up and your boss hates your stinking guts? Life can be overwhelming.

          It throws curve balls. Death happens unexpectedly. Accidents. A phone call can change your life… So then what?

          When it’s all over what would you want the people closest to you to say about you? “She was a tight-wad that never spent any money or did anything fun.” Or “you could never trust him because he was a liar and a flake. The man couldn’t be consistent to save his own life.” What do you want people to say about you?      

          If life is short or just a vapor I am going to make the best out of it and do you know what it is? You’re reading it. I was born to write. In school my teachers thought I had a learning disability because I wrote so fast but it’s because I loved it! To this day my handwriting is hard to read but that’s what computers were made for (easier communication). It wasn’t until I was in college and given an IQ test that my score was over 160. The specialist that tested me said sarcastically “you’re so smart you could probably see into the future!” I don’t take to math but if there is a mystery, if I need to recall a conversation word for word from 20 years ago La’Sandra has an answer!

          My writing will be here long after I am gone. I feel true freedom when I write. What makes you feel free? If the world is going to end tomorrow what would you want to have done with your life? I want to be a wife and mother. I love people and I love things that smell good and God gave me the dream of running and developing a body care line. What passion has He given you? By all means what ever it is make peace with it so you can do it. Being a peace maker first starts in your mind! Then peacemaking goes toward everyone and everything else and you see what the end result will be and what you will be called and you will not be called a failure!!!!
