MY PEOPLE

Another tough day?

I know.

Share your mind with me for a moment, and let’s get you back in control.

My People, Hear My Secret:

When faced with a situation, it’s the connection with God that strengthens your foundation.

It’s based on the words of the Book of Psalms and the Book of Joshua:

May the arrogant be put to shame for wronging me without cause; but I will meditate on your precepts. Psalms 1:19

Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. Joshua 1:8

My Book of Poems address situations presented on my website’s daily Stoicess’ helpline. It is my goal to help those who may have struggled with these situations to see life from a different perspective – a Christian perspective.

Yes, Situations are obstacles, but obstacles ARE God’s way to keep HIM in our minds Always. The obstacle becomes the way to God.

Remember: "It’s the Situation Keeping My Connection With Him."

As We Remain in God’s Hands,

I’m Lori Stith, The Stoicess

Your Christian Life Coach

and I believe in YOU

Using past memories we have shared came to my mind,

I decided to build on them so our minds could be intertwined.

––––––––

Pics of our times together I began sending to him daily,

I could feel in my heart that he received them gayly.

––––––––

Much time passed, but Dad finally came through,

We spent off-the-book time together, and Oh how our relationship grew.

––––––––

So as Isaiah said, One must move the obstacles out of the way,

I found my peace in life with my Dad, the two of us together – we’re the best show on Broadway.

Situation: Partner Left Me

Of all the hard times one faces in their life,

it’s a breakup with a partner that brings so much strife.

––––––––

You work hard to make a living to share with your other,

but when coming home one night, they tell you they are leaving to share their life with another.

––––––––

You’re caught off-guard, and such announcements are always made,

when you’re tired, exhausted, ... it’s been a really tough day.
