Don't Worry-Be Happy

Matthew 6:27- "Will all your worries add a single moment to your life?"

        It is hard to believe that this time next week we will be well into the middle of this first month in the new year! Time is flying and many of us are already into our  new projects for 2015. For me this is the Year of Manifestation. All the promises that God has so faithfully guarded will materialize in some form or fashion this year.  Many of you are also aware that the harvest is white and ready to be gathered.  What we may not clearly see is that the only thing standing between us and our destiny is fear,  
        Fear can show itself in many ways; but two of the most debilitating forms are  procrastination and worry.  With procrastination the fear of failure or success stifles us from even beginning a forward progression. It is as if we are just sitting in a parked car.   Worry on the other hand allows us to get started but before we can make any appreciable progress we are always applying the brake.  Worry causes us to second guess ourselves and takes our eyes off of what is important.  
         We are just in the first quarter of the game with great opportunities ahead, We do not want to spin our wheels and get bogged down in unnecessary "mud". Think positively about everything; especially obstacles that try to cause us to brake (break).  When we encounter these challenges it is imperative that we show God that we trust him; and two great ways to accomplish that is in attitude and behavior. Old School Bobby Mcferrin got it right when he popularized the saying- Don't worry, be happy!  Modern day singer Pharrell William backs this up with the "Happy Song".  Let's take a clue from these gentlemen and stay happy.  Every day is a good day; it is up to us to make it a GREAT day!  Have a fun and safe weekend. Be  blessed! Dr. JoAnn.
