Alyssa's ramblings...

My Birthday!

It was my 21st birthday on Tuesday! And I was sick in bed all day! :o( I woke up with some sort of stomach bug, which caused vomiting and diarrhea. Fun! But in the evening we went to my Mum's house for dinner and I didn't feel too bad, just a bit unsettled in the stomach. So that bit was good! And on Monday night I had a get-together with some of my friends, which rocked. :o)

Yes, it's Thursday, but I just got back to work after being sick (insert sad violin music here), so give me a break. :o)

Leonie and John are currently talking about the keys to financial security (which they heard from Anthony Robbins). The basic gist is 'being so focussed on the goal (i.e. getting money) and driven by it, that it's your primary ambition'. This is a load of garbage. Here's a better way: Give your life to God, and tithe. God said, in Malachi 3:10, "Bring your full tithe to the Temple treasury so there will be ample provisions in My Temple. Test Me in this and see if I don't open up heaven itself to you and pour out blessings beyond your wildest dreams." This is the only time in the Bible that God tells us to test Him. Interesting, isn't it? I especially like the last five words (in the Message translation): 'blessings beyond your wildest dreams'!!! Yeah! So I don't have to worry if financial situations seem tough. God has already promised that He'll bless me with all I need and more. :o) God rocks!!!
