"Finding Quietness in a Storm"

Ecclesiastes 4:6 (KJV 1900)

Better is an handful with quietness, than both the hands full with travail and vexation of spirit.

The Healing Dream; about a handful with quietness. Only have had two healing dreams. This is one of them.

Luke 12:15 KJV 1900

And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.

How can you say less is better when I have all these bills?

1) It depends on how you look at things,

2) acting our wage is important as Dave Ramsey would say. Living within our means and budget.

And being a good steward over what God has given us.

3) Tell them about the small Christmas tree and teaching grandchildren about a budget. Where is your Christmas tree? replied “They are on a budget”.

Downsizing may hurt at first, but the end results are worth it. Like pruning a tree.

John 15:2 KJV 1900

Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

1) Downsizing. Cutting the cable and all unnecessary expenses. And most importantly making room & time for God.

2) One car instead of two. Or used cars paid off instead of New. Don’t laugh it’s paid for.

3) We learned the hard way. Forced bankruptcy. Had to get a new occupation and training.

Take a step back! You can do it!

1) For me recently this included deleting my Telegram account that eventually I will reopen, due to being frustrated and not doing it right. Now I have more quietness. I will eventually reopen after I learn to do it right with peace.

Song: Shut in with God

Chorus: “Shut in with God in a secret place, there in the Spirit beholding his face, gaining more power to run this race. I love to be shut in with God”

(Grab guitar and play the chords: What Key?) And end with prayer.
