Be the best you....you can be!

Having great self-confidence or a high self-esteem will help in just about every area of your life. You were not born with self-confidence or high self-esteem - these you develop over the years. Self-confidence is trusting that you have what it takes, to handle whatever happens. You feel sure of yourself and enjoy trying new things, without letting doubts or fears hold you back. When you have confidence in others, you rely on them.
Being constantly criticized by others tends to slowly strip you of our feelings of self worth. Your low self esteem strips you of your self confidence to make even the smallest of decisions. You begin think little of yourself, and feel you do not deserve to be happy.

Don't always try to please others. It is considerate to care about others' feelings but your needs are important also. Do not try to be like someone else either. You will be at your best when you are being yourself because of your uniqueness. Strive to be your best, but do not criticize yourself if you fall short of your expectations.

God is speaking!

Are you Listening?

God speaks to us through his Holy Word and he is trying to reach many of us today. Do you believe on the Lord Jesus Christ? Have you accepted his invite to come into your heart? The Bible says Jesus is knocking at the door of your heart and anyone who opens the door and lets him in he will come and sup with them. (Revelation 3:20)

Time is drawing near to the return of Christ, Jesus, our Savior, and Lord. The Biblical signs point toward his coming being near but none of us know when our last moment on earth will be individually. Your life could cease in an instant, if so will you stand before God blameless or guilty? The Bible says like in the days of Noah so shall the coming of the son of man be. The Bible says everyone after Adam was born into sin and stand guilty before him. The Bible also says that no righteousness lies within us of our own accord, it says all our righteousness is like filthy rags. (Isaiah 64:6) Jesus is righteousness. (Romans 5:17-19)

The Bible says the wages of sin is death. Sin=death! How shall I take care of my sin debt so that I can live you ask? God speaks through his word to answer that question, "My Son, Jesus"

Le me show you the scriptures......

Romans 5:8--But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Christ paid for our sins.....He gave his life for ours...

1 Peter 3:18--For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:

Matthew 20:28--Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

Ephesians 5:2--And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savour.

You may be saying why? Answer, because he loves us....

At Christmastime we delight in the gifts we receive.....but the ultimate unsurpassable gift we can ever receive comes from God, the Father, through his Son, Jesus, and that is ETERNAL LIFE. This gift can only come from him by GRACE.

For by grace we are saved, as a result of our faith, and that it is the GIFT of God, not of the result of works you have done, so man his NO room to boast about salvation whatsoever. (Ephesians 2:8-9)

If you have already received the gift because of your faith in Jesus then you know of the Joy that the saints of God have and that are found in these scriptures. Those of us that believe in Christ hath no fear of the end coming because we know we will stand before God blameless, not as a result of anything we have done but all because of what the SAVIOR CHRIST JESUS HAS!

If you have not believed or the Lord Jesus and take your last breath and leave this earth in the physical you will be defenseless before the Father and will be judged for your unwillingness to accept his Son Jesus. (Revelation 20:11-15)

I encourage you, if you have not already, to seek Truth, Jesus is TRUTH, the word of God says "He is the way, the truth and the life; and that no man comes unto the Father but through him, so you see there is no other way to even connect with God, the Father, but through Jesus. It doesn't matter how man wants to say is the way, the only thing that matters is how the Father has shown us which way is the right way. (John 4:16)

The Bible says whosoever believes on Jesus shall be saved.....this was his reason for coming......

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved....John 3:16-17

Will you believe before it's too late? I pray your answer is YES! When you have please email us so we can rejoice together....send your email here @ sherri@woman2womanlounge.com

No time to procrastinate in 2008!

by Sherri C. Walker

No time for sleeping when there is work to be done. We have moved forward into a New Year with a greater opportunity to enhance and improve our businesses. No time to be idol, every second counts. The more time you waste the next person is already gaining steps ahead of you. In today's business market there is a lot of competition out there and each business owner is claiming their business service or product is the best. Competition is getting stiffer and stiffer. No room to procrastinate in 2008 is my motto. We have to get moving and sharpen our marketing and public speaking skills. Bottom line you will not be noticed if you stay invisible. You have to put yourself out there so people will know who you are, what you do, and where to find you when needed. If you don’t have a website then I suggest you create one for yourself and your business, if you already have one now would be the time in the beginning of our new year to go over it like a fine tooth comb and make sure its sharp, perhaps even give it a new look for the new year. People pay attention to every detail now days. Consumers are looking for the most they can get for their dollars. They want professionalism not peanuts.

Cover all your basis make sure you keep business cards on hand at all times and be sure to keep them in active circulation. Hand them out individually, leave them places locally in your neighborhood like mini markets, banks, post offices, laundromats, and your local library, most of these places have bulletin boards where customers can post ads, leave flyers, or business cards. It would even be a good investment to get your business listed in the local business yellow pages in your city or state. Small ads in your weekly neighborhood reader could prove to be profitable and get your name and business on the lips of folks in your area. Networking and good advertising is essential to the growth of your business. The success of your business is what you make of it. If you put 50% into it then you will only see half of what it could possibly be, why not put your all into it and work at making it stand out from the rest. Remember you only get out of it what you put into it. I wish you all the best........ Happy Marketing Ladies!
