Holding nothing back my friend continued in detail how her husband had psychological issues concerning quality. Containing my laughter was a failed attempt. She went on to explain that her husband refused to drink cheap coffee. “I did an experiment Darlene,” she continued, although I couldn’t stop laughing, “I put the cheap coffee in a Maxwell House coffee container. He didn’t even know the difference. He didn’t complain one bit. He did the same with Zero Pepsi. The bottle design looked like a regular Pepsi.” As she and her son watched him enjoying it. I’m going to call him Bob. She and her son unveiled the truth it had zero sugar, he wanted no part of it. It took him time to admit he enjoyed the taste.

She gave me permission to write this since it’s a perfect example of how powerful our minds are.

It’s true! Marketing companies have the skill to manipulate our thoughts. One reason I know this is at one time I went to school to become a market designer. The right design, people and words, nothing to it, it all falls in place. Sad to say I forgot this trick until recently. 

Satan tries to get us to buy into his lies. “Things are never going to change! You will never get better. This situation is too bad for God to fix.” One situation would finally  resolve only to be trailed by another one.

Yesterday I had an encounter. As I fought against the negative words pouring through my mind, The Voice of Truth kept saying, “That is not true. It will get better. God is in control. My friend unexpectedly texted me to tell me this.

A thought came to my mind just now we are trying to clean up the living room and we have ceiling that’s coming down in places that we are trying to fix some places are missing trim just different things and sometimes you get frustrated and it doesn’t look pretty at times but when you start adding curtains and some decorations and cleaning everything and make it smell fresh the thought came how god wants something messed up so he can fix it and his goodness and beauty out ways all the darkness and evil it has too

Don’t buy into the enemies’ lies. It will get better. Remember he never tells the truth!

…. “He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.”  John 8:44 KJV
