Let Your Heart Not Be Troubled...

By -
Because if you believe in Jesus, you have nothing to fear!  And I do not say this with any agenda.  We are all in this time, this unprecedented time, of uncertainty together.  We are in the midst of an election that is not resolved.  We are still dealing with old Corona!  We are dealing with videos of people sharing their thoughts and even sometimes there own fears or their own conspiracy theories. 
I don't know what tomorrow holds -- but I know WHO holds tomorrow!  Do you know Him?  He is Jesus <3.  He is the Perfect One that came down from his heavenly home to save a wretch like me!  He spoke to saints and sinners  - He still is today.  If you read His Word, you will be able to know Him and know His heart!  I do believe that He wants us to love each other!  Yes, we are to love!  But, He also calls us out of our muck and mire into a world of Light!  How can we stay in our sin when He calls us to come out?  I do believe that He loves us with an everlasting love.  I also believe that if that love resides within us, why is there no change in our walk?  When we get saved, the Holy Spirit comes to us, too!  He is that small voice or feeling that nudges us along.  
I was listening to a podcast the other day, and they were talking about how none of us were good or could do good.  The only person who was ever good to walk this earth was Jesus!  He does good through us.  However, if we stay in our sin, if we continue to allow whatever the sin is to have a stronghold, we can't be as usable.  I'm not saying by any means that you never sin again after you are saved.  I am saying that there is a life change or a conviction to change.  If you are walking with Christ, there will be light on areas that we see need changed. 
I encourage you, as I do myself, to be in the world but not of the world.  Be so different that people just have to know what or Who it is that makes you be able to do what you do!  
And when it comes down to the election and Corona and the future - just remember that if you are in Him, He is in you!  He has gone to prepare a place for us!  We are here to spread the good news!  JESUS saves!
I always like to end on a song.  https://youtu.be/kXxlzjdsAsU
I just love to hear David Phelps sing!  As you listen, pray that the Lord will calm your fears, heal your hurts and carry you through your days!  He is alive!  He loves you!  Won't you surrender your heart to Him if you haven't already?  And if you are saved, tell the Good News to those around you!  
I love you, my dear friends and family <3!
I hope you continue on in the journey God has placed before you and that you will feel His peace and love! 
And as always, I wish you love, blessings and send you 《hugs》!
:0) love,
Chandra

"We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed;"

  Before I post this, I have to preface it by saying that I have been honored to be teaching with a fantastic company, Cambly.com since September of 2021.  I found out about them by another VIPKid teacher.  I went ahead and applied and started teaching with them.  It has changed my life.  I have met some amazing people and have made some new friends!  Precious friends!  With that said, last August I was dealing with the knowledge that my then current job was going to end and that I was going to have to tell my students goodbye.  I would like you to now read my thoughts that I wrote at that time and how God helped me through a time of sadness.  I hope something I wrote might help you.   I have had the high honor of teaching with a company that teaches Chinese children English.  A mandate has caused a change in this where over 100,000 teachers are not being allowed to teach them unless they live in mainland China.  Since that is not an option for me, I know that I will not see these you

This is an old post that I started some time ago, but I believe LIFE interrupted me, and therefore, I was unable to finish.  Seth is asleep!  I shout a quiet "Yahoo!" to myself :0) So, I am now finishing this since I have the opportunity!!!       I was in Powdersville today with Sully for his therapy.  It was a trip like any other.  I stepped in to talk to his wonderful group of therapists - he has been with these therapists since he was 6 months old!  And they are AWESOME!!!!!   In any case I mentioned that I had been working with getting some of our clothes out of storage for the cooler weather.  I get stopped up when I am around dust and mold - I think I talk more about my allergies and stress with children in this blog than anything else  :0)  Anyway, I mentioned to them that I have what I like to call the "Nasal Voice" from my allergies.  I laughed and said that I wish I had what I call the "Sexy, Raspy Voice!"  That is what I get when I have a thr

The State of My Being

By -
  I have been without a computer for a month!  I am laughing on the inside because I somehow managed to go through high school and a tiny space of college without one.  Amazing, I know!  And then couple that with a syndrome that I seem to have gotten -- short attention span -- or as one of my buddies calls it, "Squirrel!" -- equals not posting in June.      Why does this matter to me?  Well, I have been posting here for over 4 years!  I know - it has gone by so fast.  It has been a fun-filled, eventful four years.  So where am I now, emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually?      Emotionally-speaking, I am in a better place.  I still have some mommy-meltdown moments, but I am happy to say they are getting fewer.  I am still, sadly, set off by spills.  Silly, isn't it? But I tell you the moment a liquid or little tiny particles spill everywhere, I explode like Godzilla. I am almost 100% sure that I am not alone.  Let us take on the attitude from my mom, a lot
