Fridays are FABULOUS... and so is "ME" Month

September is “ME” Month, and throughout this month we are encouraged to take special time to care for ourselves. Growing up during the 80s, I recall hearing and repeating the old adage, “it’s all about Me, Myself, and I.” Reflecting on this saying as I’m older and somewhat wiser, I’m rephrasing it as, “Me, Myself, and God.” 

According to Isaiah 41:10 (NIV), “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” The Bible reassures us that God is always with us and will never leave nor forsake us (Deut. 31:6). He never leaves us alone no matter what the situation or circumstance.

Although we are spending time this month and pampering ourselves, we must know that the Lord our God wants us to spend time with Him also. And, as we take time pampering ourselves and spend time with God this month, he will give us rest, restoration and strength!

September is "ME" Month
TIPS to Remember in September:

• Pamper yourself while listening to worship music or a sermon. 
• Spend quality time reading God’s word, or writing in your journal while you relax.
• Attend worship service with a family or friend.
• Be grateful and give thanks for an opportunity to just rest and refresh this
  September.
