The Thief

There has been a robbery! But not to worry. What was stolen can be regained. The thief is comparison. Comparison robs us of our identity when we start looking at our current standings versus others. People compare over money, looks and jobs. You are who God created you to be. He doesn’t make mistakes, nor does He look at his work and think you could have been improved.

Embrace your uniqueness, accept yourself as you are, always trying to improve. God is the authority over our lives. That’s good enough for me…

Grateful…

This morning I woke up with an overwhelming amount of gratitude. I’m grateful every day, but even more so today. Last night I had a car wreck that could have ended my life and the lives of the young men who hit me. All of us are pretty banged up, but we will heal physically. God protected us, no doubt. He’s not finished with us, and I am forever grateful to Him…

What You Believe

Self acceptance begins with the messages our parents gave us. If they believed in us and taught us that we can overcome adversity, then we probably had a solid foundation from which to grow. But for those of us whose parents told us we would never amount to anything, we had a steeper hill to climb.

Listen to the inner voice that encourages you, the voice that speaks the truth into your mind. Then go to work…

Monday

Why does Monday always get a bad rap? I know it means the weekend is over, but you will have another weekend in five days. If you woke up this morning and are reading this, be grateful. You have another day to live. Anyone whose name is listed in the obituary column would gladly trade places with you on your worst Monday. Something to consider…
