Rosie's Pantry: Food for Thought with Pastor Rose

Many of us make plans. Some of us made New Year's resolutions. But what do you do when your plans for yourself have been interrupted by circumstances or situations you have no control over? Rather! What do you do when God steps in, tampers with your plans, and puts a damper on your agenda? Your plans… are good. Productive! Morally correct! Your plans are for the betterment of everyone involved. But what do you do when God steps in and messes with all your stuff? When God establishes his steps in your life. 

Christmas is this special occasion when people, of all faiths/of all beliefs, take time to purchase gifts. Gifts that they have put some thought behind that will be useful and helpful to friends or loved ones. Gifts like that remind us of the Christmas gift God has given us in Christ Jesus. That’s why Christmas is so special.

Listen to how we can make the most of every opportunity because we won’t always have them. Now is the time to establish your priorities and learn how to live TODAY.

Jealousy can destroy your life. It causes unrest, anxiety, and stress. People lose sleep worrying about what someone else is doing. Jealousy affects your integrity. Listen to how jealousy is damaging for you.

Holding on to past hurts and past pain will not heal you. Unresolved issues that linger in the back of your mind can become a tormenting annoyance that will consume you. You have within you a true power that is an inner quality.

No matter your situation, you can bloom and succeed. Hear the story of a young woman surrounded by negativity, yet finds peace and hope. 

Failure can either redirect your life or take away all momentum. In every life, there will be a failure of some kind. But with failure come choices. You can choose whether your failures become a stepping stone for renewal or a landfill for a wasted life. Which will it be?

When disaster and crisis occur in our lives it is so easy to be blinded by the situation you don’t see clearly. It is so easy to be overwhelmed by the despair and pain, but don’t give up. You are not alone.

God loves you enough to provide you with what you need. All you must do is ask. But with asking comes believing and with believing comes trusting. Are you willing to ask and trust God?

Has your faith ever been challenged? Have you ever questioned yourself or questioned God as to whether you can succeed or if God is truly with you while trying to succeed? Through Rosie’s Pantry, you will hear words to encourage and lift you to accomplish your goal.
