snts shiny new thingssyndrome

my husbands cousin sent me and email speaking of a personal yet probably widely shared problem. he even gave this personality disorder a name snts or shiny new thing syndrome. he went on to explain it like this that it slightly relates to adhd and add you decide to take on a project weather it be something you love or something you feel will give you that all encompassed boost you feel will move you up the ladder of exceptense it keeps you attention for a little while but if you don't get the immediate results or recognition that should come with this endeavor whether it be noble or not you quit and go on to the next shiny new thing and this becomes a pattern soon it spills over to your christian walk and every other part of your life like this incurable cancer your mind seems to never allow you to Finnish anything. you want to change but even with your best efforts it never really has the results your looking for. i know how he feels because i have suffered with snts most of my life i have come to the realization that when i actually let go and allow god to help me and i focus on him his face his words help a lot and although my mind is very active and it can run a million miles ahead of me if i let it when i ask god to slow me down and refocus me he does. i know my husbands cousin gene reads my little blogs i hope he reads this one. well hears a little pointer when you feel you need to go in a different direction ask god if he wants this for you if you feel peace then its god, then ask god to help you follow his plan and to keep his peace in you. and some of his self control start working on his plan and when you can see results and there positive and ask god to help you reveal this when he feels its time and you needn't curb your zeal but if your like me with a lot of unfinished projects you do this gods way you wont have to lay out your plan to the general public god will do that for you. the devil loves people with this disorder because he can keep them from ever listening to god and following through they will never win. people like us if we ever get on board with gods plans and stay focused and allow god to bring them to fruition the devil will run scared knowing he has lost a good section of people to hinder gods work we will be the true earth shakers and harvesters for Jesus so what can cure the shiny knew thing syndrome gene you and i have always had the cure its Jesus he will give you and me and countless others the cure that's always been there its called focus. so anyone reading this pray for gene he is a wonderful tool for god and is very talented. me i love to write and to do what ever god choose for me to do there are many of us who lack focus and are sometimes looking for the place we feel we belong, but what really matters is we focus on whats really important our place in Jesus and he always will show us when we ask . he will heal our lack of focus and keep our energy's where they belong being used by him. that's what i need so gene i thank you for your email and keep on striving to be the best gene ballou you can be and ask god for the focus and you will get there one step at a time.

cant sleep

here i am sleepless and my mind wondering all over the place . well what does one do when this time arises you can lay there driving yourself crazy tossing to and fro or you can get up read a book even the good book the bible always Good choice you can pray until you fill you've reached a point where you and god are on a good vibe together all these are fairly good things to do prayer is always good reading gods word even better. and sometimes getting to yourself and talking one on one not exactly praying but just having and up front open conversation with the big guy unloading everything that is either bothering you or you just need some private time with father god no one listening no TVs blaring in the back ground no radios no children pulling at your shirts saying Mommy or daddy just you and god talking to each other really listening for that inner voice him speaking to you and your really listening for a change . then when you've aired your grievances and you unloaded yourself you sit there and really listen in the quiet stillness and all of a sudden peace sweet unbridled silence and then you hear it he speaks you listen and everything clicks and all of a sudden the true peace full blissful sleep comes over you your eyes grow heavy your body relaxes and before you know it your back in bed all is well in the world and out you go. not sure why I'm writing this just wanted to i guess. sometimes we get so busy and we put to much on our plates we don't seem to make room for what really matters and that's the quiet times with our heavenly father, sometimes we only allow enough time for a hello but we don't really wait for the how are you or god what can i do for you today who do i need to bless today by you working through me to touch them and buy the Way god i just want to talk to you just a casual conversation i don't need anything just want to talk to you in general. we sometimes forget god doesn't just want to pull us out of the stupideness we we may have brought on ourselves or just be our healer or the give me give me he isn't Santa he god he's our friend simple heart to heart talk but we busy our selves and fool ourselves sometimes thinking being busy is doing what god expects don't get me wrong doing the right things for god is good but when you crowd so much in a day and you don't make time for the one who your doing this for then what good is it it's in the one one relationship you build with the father that truly empowers you to be the person he's created you to be. so just as we put aside time for family god should be the biggest part of your family he's the reason you have your family so i guess what I'm saying is my sleepless nights could because i just didn't slow down enough or put to many non essentials in the way and in my most unwarranted manner squeezed out time for the most important one in my life and that is the great I AM he is the only one that matters and i don't just want to touch Gods heart i want to truly know him and his son and the holy spirit . well i guess I'm finished just wanted to chat a bit. life has been a bit Topsy turfy for me i have been sick in the hospital and even through all this gods been there he is always there and god does use me but most of all i just want to be the blessing he intends me to be. so this might bless it might not sleepless in beebe. goodnight and gods speed
