LET HEAVEN FILL YOUR THOUGHTS

LET HEAVEN FILL YOUR THOUGHTS! 

Colossians 3:2
Let heaven fill your thoughts,
do not spend your time worrying
about things down here!




If we do, we will change! Our values and priorities will change. We will use our time, money and other resources more wisely. A higher priority will be placed on relationships. We will be energized and excited about our eternal life. 
And........we will be motivated to live a sensational life after 60 as we complete our journey here on earth! 

Enjoy your journey,
Blessings,
Joan

CHANGING for Sensational Living after 60

Sensational Living after 60 for me is taking CHANGE. And change takes time. Change is breaking old habits and way of doing things in every area of our life.

I heard something in Prayer Group this week.
"While waiting on the changes you are praying and hoping for,{ in yourself and in others}, remain gracious and kind."

Remember, all things are possible with God!!!

Selah, pause and think on that!


Blessings,
Enjoy Your Journey!

Baby Boomers; Interesting Facts

After researching for my book, I discovered some interesting facts about my (our) generation, the Baby Boomers. What makes us unique is our approach to aging. In general, we desire to remain active and maintain our well-being. Most experts agree the way we live out the last third of our years will look very different from the historical image of senior citizens.

I believe our generation is going to revolutionize what it means to age in America. We are going to help pave the way for future generations into "sensational living after 60" !!!

Enjoy Your Journey,
Blessings,

After 60 and Staying Thankful !!!

After 60 and staying thankful! Can I get a witness?!?

Even though fall is my most favorite season of the year, my Mom would always need to call and say, "Joanie, don't miss fall". She knew I stayed so busy there was a good chance I may miss it.

When I do slow down I see the beautiful colors, smell the wonderful scents and feel the refreshing cool breeze. Thanksgiving wells up inside me and overflows!

I am your messenger today to say, don't miss fall! Even if you are suffering major challenges, give yourself permission to enjoy this season of thanksgiving.

God's instruction in Thes. 5:18 is to give thanks no matter what the circumstance may be.

Instead of regretting or resenting the way things are, thank God in all circumstances.

My personality is one which has to practice thanksgiving daily. When I discovered the awesome benefits I receive from giving thanks I made it a daily practice. Sometimes I name my blessings one by one. Sometimes I list them one by one.

Once my family and friends formed a Thankful Hearts Club. We made crafts together and at home. As we did this, we practiced giving thanks. It was a special, creative time of giving thanks!

This is the two major benefits of staying thankful:

  1. Practicing thanksgiving will awaken you anew to the Lord's presence!
  2. Practicing thanksgiving will release God's power in your life and circumstances!

This is what we need to live a sensational life after 60!

Let's do this together! Let's enjoy this season in a sensational, thankful way!

Enjoy your journey,
Blessings,
Joan
