Just some thoughts...

Every day, as I write Poetiquejustis, I pray it will be a blessing to someone.
Today, I hope it is you.

Think On These Things

 

If you realized how powerful your thoughts are
you would never have a negative thought
Peace Pilgrim
Just like a room you have painted
or a picture you have put on a wall
Your thoughts create the environment in which you live
Do your thoughts create a storm
 or a haven
think about it....
and that's poetiquejustis
A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of.
Luke 6:45

Living On a Thread

 

"The slender threads that move us forward"
Sue Bender
The whispers
The fleeting thought
The impression
These are the things that move our lives forward
These are the things that our heart reaches for
These are the things that are real 
 
Don't let them slip away
and that's poetiquejustis
"Be still, and know that I am God"
Psalm 46:10

Details, Details

 

Success is the sum of the details
Harry Firestone
The little things you remember
To say
To do
To be
To love
Those are the details
That tell the tale
Of you
That's quite a story!
and that's poetiquejustis
He who is faithful in the least, is also faithful in much
Luke 16:10

All The Good

 

I’m just trying to make a smudge on the collective unconscious. 
David Letterman
 As you move through this day
Leave a footprint  for others to follow
Leave an echo for others to hear
 so theycan find their way again
Leave a smudge that encourages others to fill their life with color
Leave someone with  a pleasant memory
to get them through the darker hours
But most of all
Leave the world a better place than it was
when you woke up.
John Wesley,
 "Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can." 
and that's poetiquejustis


 2 Thessalonians 3:13
As for you, brothers, do not grow weary in doing good

Give It a Go

 

Keep the faculty of effort alive in you
by a little gratuitous practice every day.
William James


Give it a try


Give it a push


Give it a shove



Put a little elbow grease in there


                                                 Take it all in



Give it some love

Give it some care


This is your Life- 
Your journey

make an effort



And that's poetiquejustis
            Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men
                                                                     Colossians 3:23

The Soul of Silence

 

What  I like in a good author is not what is said, but what is whispered.
Lowell Pearsall Smith
Flying words eBook : Duff, Rachel ...


In the  nuance


In the implied


The nugget that you must dig deep to find


That which does not obscure with sound and fury
But whispers to your soul
 
That is worth looking for

That is worth waiting for
 

and that's poetiquejustis
Ecclesiastes 3:7“A time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak.”
