This is the master word bank for the month of April , 2019. Each day, I withdraw one word and focus on it constantly. At the end of 26 days, I will have internalized and applied the actions of 26 life-giving words. I expect great changes when the words of my tongue call forth life.
I remember being excited when each of my sons spoke their first word. Of course, it was Mama. Well, maybe not, perhaps my memory is selective. Whey my oldest son was 11 our neighbor was a language Professor. She introduced the action of rewarding each new word by putting a nickel into their word bank!
Words increase each year. Phrases like “This is killing me.” “I can’t.” “I am dying to know.” These are not examples of true and powerful statements. Yet, once verbalized, we internalize them and they become real. Guess what?
I went to the Urgent Care facility 2 weeks ago and the Dr. said you have pneumonia. You can’t play with this. It is deadly. Well, if I didn’t feel near death when I went in, I sure felt it when I left. Death became real to me. Fear gripped the little lung power I had left. Ouch!
The Bible gives us specific instructions for our words.
Proverbs 31:26 She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
Psalm 141:3 Set a guard over my mouth, Lord; keep watch over the door of my lips.
There are hundreds of scriptures instructing us how to speak. Like mindless eating, I find my words to be lacking substance during the past 3 years. Today it’s back to basics, learning words of life and internalizing them in my soul. I will share with you how my progress goes!
When we journey into May, some words will change. My key word for this year is Aware. Awareness connects with every word in the word bank. I must be aware of what I say, do, think, see, hear, and touch.
How is the health of your mouth today? It’s time to live,
Go Forth & Prosper,

My ABC’s Today is C
My ABC’s
C… Day 3 My Definitions for verbs starting with C
Surprise! It is a music note! Let’s sing success.
C is the first note of the C major scale, the third note of the A minor scale and the fourth note (F, A, B, C) of the Guidonian hand.
All of the above information seems very technical. When I was a little girl, I learned the sounds of each note and to this day I identify the key a song is played in by those sounds. Someday, perhaps we can discuss chords, not just notes.
Isn’t it fun to bring music into each day?
C – Bank Note a 100-dollar bill. See C–note defined for English-language learners. My action for the letter C is to generate a $100.00 before the first of August.
C – Calm: The past week my heart has played the part of a race car, rhythm far too fast. I found a meditation for the heart. While listening, my heart rate slowed to the beat. I entered a calm serene state of being! It was healing to visit this place.
C – Celebrate: Each day I will celebrate something that gives me pleasure.
C – Comfort: Many of my friends say they feel comforted when we talk. I thank God for those comments. With an act of kindness, I will intentionally comfort someone each day.
C – Cook: I have just completed a course from the Masters with Gordon Ramsey, teaching cooking! I fully intend to pursue more classes and make each meal a Celebration.
As you can see, many action words are associated with the Letter C in my world. One of the most important is:
C – Can: Philippians 4:13 New King James Version (NKJV). 13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Each letter added from the alphabet will include more action on my part. This is a month of transformation, establishing patterns to become habits and insure I live life to the fullest. I Can do these things.
Three days into the design of this series and I feel a shift in my thoughts. I am so excited to know what lies ahead. For now, it’s time to enjoy the moment and,
Go Forth and Prosper,

My ABC’s Today is an A!
MY ABC’s
A … My definitions for verbs starting with an A
I will apply my ABC’s for change during the next 30 days. Each day is assigned a letter, each letter connected to a word and Sundays are just for God, relaxation and family.
Today’s letter is A….. I connect and define it as Awareness, Assurance, and Action!
Awareness: For each habitual activity, I will be aware of the task, Assured by my Faith, I can complete and apply the appropriate Action for results.
First, I pray each morning. It is clear to me, I have a one sided conversation with God. With this enlightened Awareness, I commit to listen to God. I vividly recall working for someone else. I was always available to accept the call from the Boss….. Forgive me God, for just applying the same respect for you.
Yesterday, I replanted two special gifts…an Orchid that did not bloom this year and a Banana tree. Each was a mother’s day gift. The Orchid bloomed in May for three years. This year it needed a change. The Banana tree is young, growing rapidly and needed a bigger Pot!
Today’s Awareness: the plants visibly look happy this morning. The leaves are standing tall. What made the difference? I bought a new pot, filled with new dirt nourished with fertilizer, pruned the wilted leaves, planted with love, and changed the location where they live.
God, please answer. How do I describe and apply this analogy?
-
Awareness: A New pot for me, learn new skills and nourish the existing ones, Move forward with Faith in God and share to help others.
-
Assurance: I am on the right road.
-
Action: Share my skills and knowledge to help others!
