Your Talent is Your Gift from God

Image
  I was watching the show ER on June 20, 2022 with my hubby during our suppertime show the other day, when we heard a really good quote from the character, Dr. Benton’s mother, which she said on S1 E:21 at watch time 37min. " Your talent is your gift from God, what you do with it, is your gift to Him." When we heard that, both of us were in awe of what she said.  We paused it, so I could take a minute to write that quote down, as I wanted to remember it, as well as write a post about it. I always felt like our talents were gifts from God, but I hadn’t thought about how a gift back to Him would be what you do with it. For me I found that my talent/gift is writing as well as encouraging people.  The cool thing is, without me realizing it, my blog became both of those things.  I can’t help but praise and talk about Elohim (God) here as He’s a big part of this, so I’m glad I can give back to Him in that regard here :). I think that God also gave us different t...

Stop The Stress

Image
  I wrote about June 13-14, 2022, which is when I was going for a walk the other day as I was trying to calm my bloated gut pain, as well as the general stress I’ve been feeling.   So during my walk that afternoon, close to the last part of my walk, there was this owner that had a small dog, which didn’t notice me when I was coming up to them.   Then suddenly as I walked by them the dog ended up running and braking after me a couple of times. All the owner said to the dog was no, no, but she didn’t say anything to me or do much of anything to stop the dog from chasing me.  I have this run/fear that automatically kicks in when a dog barks at me, especially if it growls or runs at me.   I ended up running really quick, as it scared and freaked me out.   I don’t want to react that way, but as I said it’s so automatic, I can’t seem to stop myself from running. As I was saying it really stressed me out, but there was a difference in what I felt for once. ...

Darkness

Image
  I decided today being Jun 9, 2022 that I would write about my darkness. There is this darkness, which I’ve mentioned before, that still stays in me, and each day it wants to overtake me, which it almost has at different times. When it was at its worst I could only see and feel the darkness, instead of the light.  I noticed it the most when I was a teenager.  It is possible it started earlier, but I find that you don’t really understand things until you become a teenager.  There is this naivete you have as a child that you don’t see the craziness that is around you. I remember that, as I thought my family was normal, but it wasn’t until I was in my last year of elementary school did I start to notice that it wasn’t normal to not talk about your family to your friends, fellow students and teachers.  I thought it was normal to not be that close to your family.  I have 3 siblings, and I remember on a number of occasions that some people thought I was an...

The Drive to Want, compared to the Need to Push to be here

Image
  As I’ve said this in the past, I seem to so frequently figure out a post I want to write when I am running.   Hehe I should call this the running blog, instead of the Pearcetheheart.com blog, but then again I do want to get to the heart of things, so that works too ;). Today being June 8, 2022 I was really struggling mentally in the middle of the night, thinking of things, which often ends up stressing me out.   I’ve noticed a lot lately, that often when I first wake up, or sometimes early in the morning, is when my anxiety, fears and depression tends to be the worst, and today was no exception.   Thankfully my running injury of my hip/spine pain has been doing so much better that I could run again. So I was running with my hubby in the morning today, and at the beginning of our run together, I mentioned it’s become a morning daily thing, for my mental stress struggles to often come on again.   He was wondering where this was all coming from.   When I...
