Counting Every Blessing

November 18, 2018November 18, 2018 LauraJoli LookingJoliGoodLeave a comment

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday of the year. Every year during the month of November I try to be even more focused on being grateful. Gratitude really does turn what we have into enough.

Whenever I find my attitude is sour, if I instead focus on the good and all the blessings that I have, I find that my outlook and attitude changes. I’ve been blessed beyond all measure!

I found myself humming this song and wanted to share its great message.

Counting Every Blessing

Rend Collective

Songwriters: Gareth Gilkeson / Chris Llewellyn / Bridget Herron / Ali Gilkeson / Will Herron / Steve Mitchell / Patrick Thompson

Ooh, ooh

I was blind, now I’m seeing in color
I was dead, now I’m living forever
I had failed, but you were my redeemer
I’ve been blessed beyond all measure

I was lost, now I’m found by the father
I’ve been changed from a ruin to treasure
I’ve been given a hope and a future
I’ve been blessed beyond all measure

I am counting every blessing, counting every blessing
Letting go and trusting when I cannot see

I am counting every blessing, counting every blessing
Surely every season you are good to me

Oh, you are good to me
Oh, you are good to me

You were there in the valley of shadows
You were there in the depth of my sorrows
You’re my strength, my hope for tomorrow

I’ve been blessed beyond all measure

I am counting every blessing, counting every blessing
Letting go and trusting when I cannot see

I am counting every blessing, counting every blessing
Surely every season you are good to me

Oh, you are good to me
Oh, you are good to me

Surely your goodness pursues me
Surely your heart is still for me
I will remember your mercies all my days
Through every storm and gale

I am counting every blessing, counting every blessing
Letting go and trusting when I cannot see
I am counting every blessing, counting every blessing
Surely every season you are good to me
I am counting every blessing, counting every blessing

Letting go and trusting when I cannot see

I am counting every blessing, I’m counting every blessing
Surely every season you are good to me

Oh, you are good to me
Oh, you are good to me
Oh, you are good to me
Oh, you are good to me

For your goodness, I will ever praise you

Oh, you are good to me
Oh, you are good to me
Sing it out now
Oh, you are good to me
In my hurting
Oh, you are good to me

I’ll sing it loud
Oh, you are good to me
Even in the dark

Oh, you are good to me
Lift your voices
Oh, you are good to me
All the time
Oh, you are good to me

Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss

~Weekly Product Highlight~Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss~

Moisturizing Shine with a Non-Sticky Feel

I recently spent some time with my sister who lives out of town. I love to look through other people’s makeup collections (Am I alone here? How about you? Do you like looking at other people’s makeup too?) She had all kinds of great products. Some I have tried and love, some I have never tried and always wondered about, some that don’t work for me but work out great for her. Isn’t that the awesome thing about makeup, it is so individual and personal.

Out of my three sisters, I think that the two of us look the most alike. What do you think?

Being a huge fan of glossy lips, I noticed right away that she had two tubes of Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Glosses in her bag. She had the shades Rosy Future and Pink Pop. I am a huge fan of the Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick line, but I had never tried the glosses. When I asked her how she likes them, she said that they are great, but the Rosy Future shade doesn’t work with her coloring.

She asked me if I wanted it and I said yes! I am not exaggerating when I tell you I instantly fell in love with this gloss as soon as I put it on! The shade is perfect for my coloring (don’t you love it when that happens?!)

The gloss goes on smoothly and evenly without feeling sticky at all. It does not bleed outside the lip line. It has a great sparkly shine that is not glittery. The gloss also wears off well. I cannot stand it when a sparkly gloss wears off leaving a weird looking glittery residue on the lips. (not cute!)

In the above picture, I’m wearing the shade Rosy Future on my lips. Tarte tartelette in bloom palette and It Cosmetics Super Hero mascara on my eyes. Pur Midnight Masquerade Face Palette on my cheeks.

No Gym? No Problem! #46 Fitness Blender Cardio Kickboxing Workout

November 12, 2018October 27, 2018 LauraJoli LookingJoliGoodLeave a comment

After several weeks posting kickboxing workouts, you might have realized that kickboxing is still my favorite type of workout! You cannot beat getting an overall body workout in a short amount of time.

I have been doing this Fitness blender kickboxing workout all this past week and I love it! I want you to be able to benefit from it too!

This workout is only 23 minutes, twenty-three minutes is so short, yet it is still a great workout!

If you are a person that needs music to workout with, you will need to add your own soundtrack because this workout doesn’t have any background music with it.

Daniel and Kelli at FitnessBlender have a great YouTub Channel with lots of great free workouts.

Do you have 23 minutes to improve your health and wellness? Yes, You Do! No Excuses, Just do it! Remember to keep good proper form, warm up before, and stretch after you exercise!

Is Her Gain Your Loss?

November 10, 2018November 10, 2018 LauraJoli LookingJoliGoodLeave a comment

Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.
Romans 12:15

I mentioned in posts recently that I have been teaching a Bible study at my church from the book by Nicki Koziarz Why Her? 6 Truths You Need to Hear When Measuring Up leaves you Falling Behind.

Spending time preparing for the study, as well as spending time with the ladies that attend the study has made a big impact on my life!

This book has so many great truths in it. One of the truths that Nicki shares is “Her Gain Is Not Your Loss”

“Pride convinces us that if someone else wins, we somehow lose. But God wants us to know that if “she” wins we all win. HIs promises are for everyone, helping us all work together for a greater purpose. A greater purpose than what we could do alone. Pride tells us God NEEDS us, being promise-filled reminds us that God WANTS us.

The more we know others are with us, the more confident we can be in ourselves. That is how we can start to see…
Her gain is MY gain.
Her loss is MY loss.
Her win is MY win.
Her sorrow is MY sorrow

A confident trust in God’s promises will give us perspective to see that if others win, it does not cause us to lose.
When God reveals something to us, it releases a responsibility within us to do something.”

Losing Who You Are Trying To Become Someone You Aren’t

November 3, 2018November 3, 2018 LauraJoli LookingJoliGoodLeave a comment

In measuring themselves by themselves and comparing themselves to themselves, they lack understanding.
2 Corinthians 10:12

I mentioned in a post recently that I have been teaching a Bible study at my church using the book by Nicki Koziarz Why Her? 6 Truths You Need to Hear When Measuring Up leaves you Falling Behind.

Spending time preparing for the study, as well as spending time with the ladies that attend the study has made a big impact on my life! This book has so many great truths in it. One of the first truths that Nicki shares is “You Need to Be Honest”. Here are a few highlights that made an impression on me.

“Honesty teaches us to stop fearing what we don’t have so we can see what we do.

We often lose who we are while trying to become someone we aren’t.

Honesty can lead us to quiet places where we seek to understand rather than merely react.

You most likely won’t be broadcasting your biggest comparison struggles on Facebook tomorrow. But we all have a place—a place that frequently makes us see ourselves as less-than in comparison to someone else. A place where we feel the most intimidated, perhaps a place that goes back to something deeply rooted in our lives. Something rarely shared because we love to shout our successes but seldom show our secret sorrows.
But the more honest we can become about these areas that threaten our souls the most, the sooner we’ll feel empowered enough to escape this comparison chase. So let’s start by being honest right here, starting with the one verse that uncovered this whole struggle in me. Honesty through the filter of God’s Word brings an understanding that goes beyond our capacity.” WhyHer Nicki Koziarz | lookingjoligood.blog

Turning Off the Noise and Getting Quiet

October 27, 2018 LauraJoli LookingJoliGood1 Comment

Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
Psalms 46:10

Since around this time last year, I have been teaching a Bible study at my church. It is one of my favorite things to do to serve in my church. Spending time preparing for the study, as well as spending time with the ladies that attend the study has made a big impact on my life!

The last few months we have been doing our study from the book by Nicki Koziarz Why Her? 6 Truths You Need to Hear When Measuring Up leaves you Falling Behind. This book has so many great truths in it. I have learned so much in preparing for the study each week. I love it when God uses different ways to give us just what we need to hear.

“I’m amazed at how much our culture resists quiet. Most of our days are spent managing noise—noise from others, noise from our technology, noise from our inner thoughts.

Sometimes it feels like there’s so much going on in my head that I can’t even hear myself think, let alone hear God. When it seems like God is quiet, we need to get quiet.

When my soul is giving me a clue that it’s not well, even just getting quiet and still for a few moments helps me recognize where I’m struggling.

When it seems like God is quiet, we need to get quiet.”

Ps 46:10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
