Title: When Life Is Confusing
Topic: Monday Motivation
Discussed by Sara Tracey
with The What's UP Radio Program
When life is confusing, chaotic, and crushing, it’s easy to believe the lie
that we are the ones who hold the responsibility to come up with the solutions.
We try to fix the distance in that relationship.
We go back and forth on whether we should quit or stay in our job.
We fill our calendar and then struggle to juggle everything on the schedule.
We’re try to make peace and resolve all the family drama.
We strategize and plan.
But in all of our attempts, we still feel anxious that it might not be the best
solution or maybe we have not done enough.
Isaiah 26:3 reminds us: “You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on
you, because he trusts in you.”
God’s Word promises that God has perfect peace for us when we do two things:
Keep our mind on Him and trust that He has a way for us as we seek Him.
If life feels heavy and you begin to feel your peace being replaced with anxious
planning, shift your eyes towards our all-knowing God and ask Him to help you
find a way.
2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV) “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power
and of love and of a sound mind.”
Psalm 55:22 (NKJV) “Cast your burden on the Lord, And He shall sustain you; He
will never permit the righteous to be moved.”
Zephaniah 3:17 (NKJV) “The Lord your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will
save you; He will rejoice over you with gladness; He will quiet you with His
love; He will rejoice over you with singing.”

Title: Your Presence Cannot Be Erased
Topic: Monday Motivation
Discussed by Sara Tracey
with The What's UP Radio Program
You may think that you are
completely insignificant in this world.
But someone drinks coffee every morning from their favorite mug that you gave
them.
Someone heard a song on the radio that reminded them of you.
Someone read the book you recommended and plunged headfirst into it.
Someone remembered your joke and smiled.
Someone loves themself just a little more because you gave them a compliment.
Never think that you have no influence whatsoever.
Your presence, which you leave behind with even a few good deeds, cannot be
erased.

Topic: Monday Motivation
Discussed by Sara Tracey

It is perfectly normal to need reassurances from time to time from those we
love.
It is perfectly normal to want a relationship – a truly, truly good and
wonderful relationship.
It is perfectly normal to not be happy all the time.
It is perfectly normal to wonder if people like you and to wonder what they
think about you.
It is perfectly normal to want approval and acceptance from our friends and
co-workers.
It is perfectly normal to have needs, wants, and desires.
It is perfectly normal to not feel “good enough” sometimes.
It is perfectly normal to have questions and wonder what is going on in the
world.
It is perfectly normal to not love your body all of the time.
It is perfectly normal to have strong emotions and sad thoughts sometimes.
It is also perfectly normal to rely on the strength, wisdom, grace, mercy,
forgiveness, and kindness of a God who loves you – no matter how you may be
feeling.
Galatians 6:9 NLT “So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the
right time, we will reap a harvest of blessing if we do not give up.”

Title: What is in Your Cup will Spill Out
Topic: Monday Motivation
Discussed by Sara Tracey
with The What's UP Radio Program
You are
holding a cup of coffee when someone comes along and bumps into you or shakes
your arm, making you spill your coffee everywhere. Why did you spill the coffee?
"Because someone bumped into me!!!" Wrong answer.
You spilled the coffee because there was coffee in your cup. Had there been tea
in the cup, you would have spilled tea. Whatever is inside the cup is what will
spill out.
Therefore, when life comes along and shakes you (which WILL happen), whatever is
inside you will come out. It's easy to fake it, until you get rattled.
So we have to ask ourselves: “What's in my cup?" When life gets tough,
what spills over? Joy, gratefulness, peace and humility? Anger, bitterness,
harsh words and reactions?
Life provides the cup. You choose how to fill it. Today let's work towards
filling our cups with gratitude, forgiveness, joy, words of affirmation and
kindness, gentleness, and love for others.

NOT by Erin Hanson
You are not your age, nor the size of clothes you wear.
You are not a weight or the color of your hair.
You are not your name or the dimples in your cheeks.
You are all the books you’ve read and all the words you speak.
You are your croaky morning voice and the smiles you try to hide.
You’re the sweetness in your laughter and every tear you’ve cried.
You’re the songs you sing so loudly when you know you’re all alone.
You’re the places that you’ve been to and the one that you call home.
You’re the things that you believe in and the people that you love.
You’re the photos in your bedroom and the future you dream of.
You’re made of so much beauty, but it seems that you forgot
When you decided that you were defined by all the things you’re not.

Things you don't have to worry about:
Your future, because God is in control.
Your past, because God has forgiven you and redeemed you.
Your value, because you are a priceless and loved child of God.
Your purpose, because you are chosen and created perfectly by God.
Your present circumstance, because God is faithful and will take care of you.
You are in good hands today and every day when you are walking with God.

Title: Don’t Waste the Person You Are
Topic: Monday Motivation
Discussed by Sara Tracey
with The What's UP Radio Program
God determined which family you would be in, what background you
would have, what personality you would possess, what talents, ambitions, and
dreams you would have for a reason. He created you exactly how
you needed to be to bring hope and light to a dark and broken world. Instead of
wishing you had a gift, personality, or calling someone else has, learn to
embrace who and how God created you to be and use your own uniqueness to bring
Him glory in a way no one else can. God created each and every single one of us
to fulfill a specific purpose. Don't let anything stand in the way of you
fulfilling yours.
Pastor and Author Dale Partridge once stated: “To wish you were someone
else is to waste the person you are.”
