Values In Life: Who I Admire

What do I see as values in my life? The things that I believe to be important to my every day life. Here are a few things I see...It a summary.

  1.) Being Faithful in all I do. Life is important.
  2.) Being a Person of my word. Walk with integrity
  3.) Being Honest, Open, Truthful
  4.) Being Respectful to others as well as myself
  5.) Being Accountable for my actions
  6.) Being Loved and loving others
  7.) Being at Peace, having stability and rest
  8.) Being Grateful, thankful for all things of God
  9.) Being Loyal, having a stick with it spirit
10.) Be coming more Christlike

Who are the people who I admire in my lifetime?  Here's a few on my list. I didn't list 10...I admired my parents. There were others who have passed on the admired also.

The Trinity: God, the Father, God, the Son God, the Holy Spirit. GOD creator of ALL

( Jesus, IS...Faithful, and He is everything that is of GOD!) He is my Savior, and all that I need in life. The living God is my top of my admires.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.: Preacher, Noble Peace Prize Winner, Leader, child of God

(Strong, Determination)... I was to young to recall what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. stood for. But as I look at video of him and etc, I see that he was a well spoken man.

His a person that we should honor. Without the people of the Civil Rights Moment the world that I live in would be totally different. Freedom wouldn't be ringing.

Joyce Meyer; Preacher, Author, child of God

(Open, Faithful, Accountable...)When I listen to Joyce, I see that she's gives of herself. She is steadfast about what she is doing.

I have an opportunity to be in one of her conference in 1999. She come to the church where I gather to worship. I was at all but one of her meetings. I even was blessed to set on the platform.

Joyce is a caring person. It' shows in her testimonies. She is a walking testimony of what God can do for someone. Joyce is shining the light of God in the world.

May we life up to what we believe. May we see that our values are important. May we see that we are built up by those who we admire. May we continue to view our values in life. May we be faithful in what we do. May we see the beauty in what other do. Amen!

Some My Values In Life

I've been thinking about some of my values or beliefs. What we believe is important. What I'm sharing isn't in any order. I know that some values have more influence in our lives than other. But the matter in our lives.

FAITHFUL: We have to have faith. Without faith we can't do what we do. Believing that we can is important. But where is your faith?

My faith is in Jesus. Without faith I cannot please God. So faith and being faithful is a strong value to have in life.

HONESTY: If we don't speak the true, than how can someone believe us? Being honest states things about our character. We can be opened to others.

LOVE: Everyone needs love. God has put the spirit of love in all of us. God is love. We were created in the image of God. Love is in us. If we are in Christ Jesus we have the spirit of love in us.

INTEGRITY: It's good to say what we are going to do. Yet, it's even better to do what we are doing to do. Our action speaks louder than words. Being a person of our word, bring credibility to our character.

PERSEVERANCE: We have to set our mind on the things that we do. We need to have an attitude to keep with it. Through thick and thin, we have to keep moving. We need to stick with what we do as best as we can. I know in some cases we need to abandon our mission.

RESPECT for OTHERS and Self: We should respect others as well as respect ourselves. We don't all agree on things. But we can respect others for their opinions.

PEACE: We need to be at peace with ourselves and at peace with God. If we can't get along with ourselves we are in a lot of trouble. If we don't have peace with God, that's more trouble than we can't ever think.

ACCOUNTABILITY: We need to have some accountability for ourselves. We can only account for our own actions.

May we be faithful in what we do. May we be honest and true to our calling in life. May we learn to love one another. May we be a person of our words. May we have perseverance in what we do in life.

May the peace of God be with us. May we be accountable for what we do. May we
see that life is a gift from God. May we use this gift the best way we know how. Amen!

What's Important About Values?

Values are important. Why? There are many reasons. Without having a belief system on things there will be some trouble. We could belief every thing we hear. We have to have some form of belief on things.

I believe in being consistent in doing things. I could have just waiting for tomorrow to post things journal. It's late. And I am tried.

But I'm determine to post this journal today. I had a time getting on my computer. It was slow. I made it.

It' good to have the want to do things. The value in what we think and believe affects how we see things. If we think we can't do it. Than we think we can't. But if we go for it than we can see things that we thought we couldn't do.

May we see the good in keeping with things. May we not grow weary in doing good. May we learn to see what is working and what is not. Amen!

I need to post these journals much earlier in the day.

Thanks for reading.

Beliefs And Values

I have been trying to focus on this assignment. I have to give it more thought. Values are what we believe that is important in our life.

I've been looking on websites to give me an idea on what to journal about. I mean, this assignment appears to be some what like one I've already done. It's a bit different.

How do I approach this one? I know it doesn't have to be long. I should list at least 21. I have to ponder on that. I should at least have 10 people who I admire.

On other thoughts for the day
I've been adding more to the family tree. It's an adventure. It gets my mind off things.  I've been cleaning and sorting.

Hope all are doing OK! The weather is warming up some. It will be in the 40's on Friday. A HEAT WAVE! 

May we take life serious. May we see the value in others. May we live life with good morals and value. Amen!

Thanks for reading.Beliefs And Values.

Assignment # 12 Looking At Your Values

This looks like a big assignment! What are values? Here are some questions from the assignment. What is important to me? Who am I? And What am I committed to? What do I notice?

We are to write down 21 goals as of this date. What an exercise! There's a list of COMMON PERSONAL VALUE listed on the assignment pages. Examples Accuracy, Achievement, Success, Communication, Oneness, Preservation.  and so forth.

Here another route to your values: From the assignment sheet
Make a list of 10 people who your admire the most. These people can be real or fictional, in your life or in the public eye, living or dead.

Than next to their names, put down up to 10 qualities you admire about each of them.

Than look through your list of qualities and circle the ones that keep appearing. The qualities that appear most often are your real values.

Some of my thoughts:
Like I said what an assignment! Who are the 10 people I admire? What are my values? Well, I have to work on this assignment.

May we take some time to look at our values in life. May the LORD guide us in what we do. May we be real with what we think is important in our lives. Amen.

Thanks for reading!
