Monday Magnitude--Expand Your Creativity

This is the week that I start to prepare myself for the 30-days of November writer my fingers and mind into a state of frenzy event. This year I decided to do an expanded version by joining both the www.NaNoWriMo.com and www.NaBlopomo.com events. The first is writing a novel start to finish during the month of November, and the second is 30-days of blogging.

If it sounds a bit hectic it is, but for me it is a great way to get thoughts together, increase writing productivity, and really get the mind moving. It also puts a lot of other things on the back burner.

This week I choose my Magnitude, that thing that I want to expand and hope you will join me in the challenge this week--Let's Magnitude our creativity, our positive thoughts and energy towards a goal of your choice. Plan to be in a better place of thought, learning, or whatever in a week's time.

I would love to have you leave a comment on what you plan to do. If you like to write, come join the thousands that have already signed up at the above links and write away with us. For my 30-days of blogging you will find it a www.mudsplats.blogspot.com which you are daily invited to read. Its a bit about all the aspects of what makes me--me in relationship to the world and each other.

Monday Magnitude--Saying Thanks

On this particular Monday I choose to expand my thoughts and appreciation
to the men and women around the world,
in all cultures who wear fatigues, and serve their countries;
defending their values.

The Bible teaches that the devil comes
to kill, to rob, and to destroy
As and we begin a new wave of military expansion
which is evident in leadership around the world
different values, different agenda
wanting to confront others quickly

I choose this Monday to Magnitude Trust in God,
To Magnitude love for life
and to let others know how much I love and appreciate them
just for being who they are

Join me this week in writing a letter of thanks
to soldiers, if you need help finding somebody just let me know
Go to a nursing facility and give somebody that is all alone a hug
Visit with family that you haven't seen or spoken to in a while
Spend a few hours and give a high five on all those 'ning" groups
that you call friends LOL

Make this Monday Magnitude really outstanding in somebody's life

No matter what your country, send a letter or two to
a military person this week
Encourage them by saying Thanks!

Monday Magnitude - Recongizing God

We Recognize You As Lord

We thank our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, for his saving blood, his mercy and grace to bring us through the mires of life, become obedient to his Word, and gives us victory against every challenge that comes. Oh Glory, HIS name is Jesus--Lord of lords, and King of kings, and nothing shall bring down HIS kingdom. Hallelujah!

WE Give You Praise

For you O Lord set the seas within its borders

that they do not over flow except at your command

The mountains retain their splendor

and all of creation listens and is obedient to your Word

We are blessed to be part of your Word O Lord

Be not silent to our hearts--but let us hear the majesty of your voice

Sweet rain and fragrance, the wind and sun, the moon and stars

All of that which you have made, let us rejoice because we can

This week I choose to magnify the Lord my God,

to recognize His majesty in everything that I do, everything that I see, everything that I become involved with

Come, magnify the Lord with me, for He is worthy of our praise!

Monday Magnitude--A Duet of Love

"Yet the Lord will command his loving kindness in the daytime, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life." Psalm 42:8

"...He will rejoice over you with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over you with singing." Zephaniah 3:17

I get such a peace and comfort, joy and satisfaction knowing that God who made heaven and earth, listens to me. But the knowledge that HE sings to each of us and command HIS loving kindness towards us is nothing short of supernatural love.

I choose this week to magnify my spiritual ears to listen to the words and music of God into my spirit. And that I will then become a loud speaker for others to hear the love and contentment He has given me. Will you join me in the choir? Leave me a comment if you have joined the worship this week.

Monday Magnitude - I Am Unique

"I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made:
marvelous are thy works; and that my soul
knows right well." Psalms 139:14

Because I am unique, I choose this week to magnify my strengths,
To magnify those things that will be a marvelous, and blessing to others,
I choose to be the unique and beautiful creation that my God
has made me,
Let me love and be a conduit for those who need encouragement
Because my soul does know right well that because of Him,
I prosper in all things.

September 15 Magnitude Sight Consciousness

"But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sigh of God." 2 Corinthians 4:2

In these days of uncertainty and often confusing information in the elections, international and local politics, as well as in the places where we choose to worship--there is only one thing that is certain to calm the sea--Truth.

Only the truth that we know can set us free; the whole truth, not a part but all of it. The more truth we obtain, used with wisdom through knowledge and understanding, the better and calmer our life becomes. No longer do we drift on the sea of hear-say but stand on the solid rock of truth.

This week I choose the Magnitude of Sight Consciousness--both spiritually and physically.

I choose not to listen to gossip, but investigate and find the truth in what is brought before my sight and hearing. What we see stays with us as a mental picture, be it words or graphics.

Let us be sight conscious this week; being positive and offensive for the truth.

September 8 Magnitude Committment

"Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass." Psalms 37:4-5

While meditating upon the Word of God this week, I just really like the idea that we can all make a difference because of our choices throughout the days and weeks.

This week, I choose and invite you to join me as we expand our resolve to keep commitments. We all make promises and commitments and so often forget about them in our busy schedules.

But the Psalmist says that when we delight, have joy, fulfillment and love in the Lord our God, that he will give us our hearts desire--that are the same things on his heart towards us. And when we commit--wow! He will bring them to pass when we keep our focus and trust in Him.

I am committed to expanding myself to be of service to others, to bring joy, peace, and love to a dark world in fear and trepidation.
