Happy Worship Wednesday!

9/25/2013

Good Morning everyone!  Today is that fabulous day of the week that so many people refer to as HUMP day.  In my quest to bring a little sunshine to your computer screen every single day, I am declaring this "WORSHIP WEDNESDAY".  Here's why:
 
I am a writer and communicator.  Because this is something I do every day, I know how to do it and I try and be the most effective communicator I can.  Words are powerful and you can completely change the meaning of something by just changing one word.   Here's an example.  When people say "It's HUMP Day", this is an image that may pop into your head

If you have a  mind that tends to hang out in low places (I've got friends in low places............), this may be the first thing that pops into yours when someone says "HAPPY HUMP DAY"

In my plight to have clear, concise communication with the world, I want to use a word and image that paints a PERFECT picture.  Like my mentor Bob Ross said, "If you want sad, watch the news.  I paint HAPPY".  There is more than enough doom and gloom in the world.  If you want to fill your head and heart with it, all you have to do is turn on the radio, TV, or just listen to everyone around you.  I am the Superhero JOYFUL JOURNEYIST and it is MY MISSION to spread sunshine all over this world.  If it is raining, I want to bring the rainbow.  When people say

 "Oh, bummer, its going to rain this weekend and ruin our plans", 

I say "Jesus is MY meteorologist and HE never lets me down.  It is going to be PERFECT weather for our day."  If you don't believe me, you can ask my family and friends.  They will vouch for me!  I have said this verbatim to them SEVERAL times.

 The following picture is one I took on the last day of a Girlfriend Getaway with my High School BFF.  We had just spent 2 fabulous days in Ventura and Santa Barbara.  The weather report said "Rain, Clouds ALL day" for the next day (our last).  She started to talk about it like it already happened and was getting sad that it was going to literally "rain on OUR parade".  I responded with these exact words: 

 "Lisa, don't worry.  JESUS is my meteorologist and he always gives me perfect weather.  If we want to see a rainbow, we have to have a little rain.  It won't rain very long, probably just a few minutes in order to make it even better!"  

The next day as we were driving back to Thousand Oaks, it was cloudy and just a little bit drizzly.  I actually prefer this type of weather when I am driving.  Its easier for me to see when it isn't so bright out.  I actually said this to Lisa and told her to quit talking about the bad weather.  Right after I said that, this is what appeared on the road in front of us
Picture
She couldn't believe her eyes!  I just smiled and said "I told you so, Jesus is my BFF and we are tight.  When he tells me he is going to do something, HE DOES IT!"   We pulled over to take some pictures of this purely Magical Moment along with all the other drivers on the road.  After we were done with our impromptu side of the road photo shoot, we actually DROVE THROUGH the rainbow.  Yes people, this is how I roll!
Picture
So, besides being the BEST meteorologist, Jesus is also the BEST Supply Technician.  He always gives me the resources to accomplish the job he has given me.  I used the typic pro app on my phone to create this framed motivational "business card" poster for you.  Feel free to download and share with everyone you want.  Sharing is Caring as my favorite furry animals The Care Bears always say!
Picture
Today I offer up a challenge to you.  Your mission, should you choose to accept it is:

You are all Superheroes out in the world and workplace.  Instead of walking into your office and declaring it Hump Day, why not walk in and say "Happy Worship Wednesday"!!!!! You can tell them (when they look at you a little crazy like) that you are on a mission from The Joyful Journeyist.  Spreading JOY in this dreary, rainy world may seem like an Impossible Mission, but with all us Superheroes banding together there is no such thing as Mission Impossible!

All right everyone, LET'S DO THIS!  Time to go out in the world and radiate sunshine all over the land!  (Insert Team Huddle and Cheer here).

I would LOVE it if you let me know how your mission ended today.  Was it a success or a failure to launch?  Leave me a comment below and feel free to use your newly appointed Superhero name (you must create this yourself).  I can't help you do your job better if you don't talk to me!

Thank You Wendy! Getting verbal (as in written HERE) feedback is so wonderful. I am NOT that teacher that stands at the front of class and says "I am the ALL KNOWING and you--students---need to just be quiet and listen to me." I believe we are ALL teachers and learn something everyday whenever anyone takes the time to share with me in conversation. Be Blessed dear Friend! You may now move to the head of the class and hopefully the rest of my "students" will follow your lead :-)
