Glorifying God--in everything we do

A topic that has always been hard for me is glorifying God. Not that it's hard exactly why we glorify Him, but for me, how?

 

I want to be the best at everything I do. At all my hobbies. My sister always says, there's going to be people who are better and people who are worse. I want to be the best. When I do a good job at something, when I have a success, or I make something really cool, my tendency is to proudly show everyone. I want them to say, "Wow, good job." When they do, I feel proudly embarrassed. But, that's wrong.

  How do I give God the glory?

 

By thanking Him. Thanking Him for the talents He's given me.

 

 But, it's hard because when someone says, "Good job on so, and so." I want to say, "Oh, thanks. I really enjoy so, and, so."

 

Without God we wouldn't have any talents at all. Technically, we wouldn't even be here.

God has given us these talents, we use them to glorify Him. By thanking Him for the talents He's given us.

 

What are some other ways we can glorify God? I'd appreciate feedback, because like I said this is a hard thing for me to remember to do.

 

Give God the glory, great things He has done.

It was Spring Break, but it was still cold. Our poor friends came all the way from Georgia to suffer through the cold weather. First we went to Mount Vernon, then went to West Virginia to visit Harpers Ferry. It was so much fun. Really quite amazing. I hope it was worth it for them, I know it was for me. I used to want to be a portrait photographer, now I may want to be a traveler photographer... just kidding, but I still had so much fun taking pictures.

Also, I know I've been doing a lot of photography-type post, but I would really like to do some more DIY stuff. (hint, hint) Just giving you a heads up!

3 Tips For Poeple with Eczema

 

I have had eczema since I was three months old. It has been a ruff journey, to say the least. Sure, my eczema isn't gone yet, but I do feel like I'm getting somewhere. I've learned quite a few things that I thought I'd share for those of you who do have eczema.

 

My first tip is go grain free and sugar free. This has really helped me. I did Whole 30 for a month, and after that I continued with Paleo . I am sort of also doing GAPS , which is very similar to Paleo .

Going grain free and sugar free isn't for everyone, but I would encourage you to try it for at least a week or so.

 

Secondly, BATHS. Dead Sea Salt baths are some of my favorites. I find them very soothing and moisturizing.

Also, Bleach baths seem to help me as well.

And then, Olive Oil baths are again very relaxing and good for my skin.

 

My last tip is just the creams I use. My favorite lotion (ever) is Borage Therapy lotion. I really like this stuff and it has really helped me. Also, one of my more recent discoveries is Working Hands which is great for on the go adding cream to dry skin.

 

I really hope that these tips help you and that you will find something that helps you with your eczema!

 

Bye!
