Daily Blessings

Keep On

TODAY I RELINQUISH THE PAST AND WALK IN GOD’S WAYS OF JOY, HAPPINESS, LOVE, PEACE, AND BEAUTY.

Does life sometimes seem too much for you? Do you ever get to the point where you feel like you’ve just had enough and can’t go on any longer? If you’ve reached the end of your rope, you know what to do next, don’t you? Tie a knot and hang on!

Any time you seem to reach the end of your rope, this should indicate that the end has arrived for your present negative condition. Now it is time to move higher into more pleasant and fulfilling experiences.

To begin with, use the right words. Declare the truth about yourself—that you are a child of God, loved and cherished. Declare that God is now guiding you into paths of health, wealth, and happiness.

Then daily seek to express joy, happiness, love, peace, and beauty. Let your whole appearance depict these attributes. Reflect them in your speech, and look upon your world with each of these qualities in your heart.

The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and for evermore. (Psalm 121:8)

Transcript of a radio broadcast by Rev. Joyce Kramer, January 21, 2014.

What do you want out of life? Do you know? Few people have any real concrete picture of just what they want out of life. Consequently it seems that they live at the mercy of someone or something other than themselves. Thus we have the belief that we are the victim of things over which we have little or no control.

Each and every person is created with the ability and the power to determine his own future. Man is not at the whim of fate, luck, or chance. Neither is he created to be at the mercy of another person [ . . .]

The Joyce Kramer Ministries logo depicts a dogwood tree planted across the entrance to the church that Rev. Kramer founded in Virginia Beach. Transplanted from her brother’s property in Charlottesville, for eighteen months the tree seemed nothing more than a lifeless stick in the ground. Finally, on a Wednesday afternoon, the decision was made to dig it up, but the lawn maintenance man did not have a shovel with him. The next week, he said, he would come back and discard the dead tree. But that Sunday when Rev. Kramer arrived at church, she noticed a single leaf had appeared on the otherwise barren stick. They left the tree in place, and it grew into one of the most beautiful on the property. This flowering dogwood represents the message of Joyce Kramer Ministries: Growth is always possible; never give up.
