Fear and worry are learned behaviors. We weren’t born with them.
Anything learned can be unlearned if we are willing….

Past Life Regressions
There are people who like to remind us of our past mistakes. These types of people are insecure and love to cut others down.
Everyone has made mistakes, and sometimes our pasts are pretty dark. When someone tries to remind you of your past shortcomings or failures, just remind them that you don’t live there anymore…
GPS
My car came equipped with a Global Positioning System, commonly known as a GPS. I’m not sure how I ever figured my way to my destination before, but I guess I was somehow successful.
Many people are wandering aimlessly through life. They don’t need a GPS because any road they go down will allow them to wander and roam. But we aren’t meant to live without purpose. We are hardwired for more.
If you are searching for your purpose, take inventory of what you are good at, and what you enjoy doing. This is how God made you. Once you figure out your greater purpose, use The Bible as your GPS…
Confidence
Approach everything in life with confidence. Believe in yourself, do the work and don’t give up. If someone else receives credit for something you did, let it go. There’s no need to call attention to yourself.
God sees everything we do. Let’s work to please Him, not the world…
Mothers Day
Tomorrow is Mother’s Day in the United States. Over 40 countries worldwide celebrate mothers and honor them on a special day, usually in March or May.
There is no force more powerful than the love of a devoted mother. Period. They will sacrifice everything to care for and provide for their children. Many times they do it alone. According to 2022 U.S. Census Bureau, out of about 11 million single parent families with children under the age of 18, nearly 80 percent were headed by single mothers. Of all single-parent families in the U.S., single mothers make up the majority.
And some will find it difficult to celebrate Mother’s Day. They may be mourning the loss of a child, or perhaps the loss of their own mother. Or they desperately wanted children but were unable to have them. These women suffer silently.
If you are a mother who unconditionally loves and provides for her children, I admire and respect you. Motherhood is a tough, oftentimes thankless job…
Why?
I think scientifically, which means I question everything. Asking why something is some way is a solid starting point. My mind races with endless possibilities and circumstances.
I encourage you to question everything you can. Don’t take what the newscasters and politicians tell you at face value. Search for motive.
You will find that there are very few answers, only more questions. That’s a good thing…
Marriage Advice
Fifty percent of first marriages end in divorce. That’s sad. What’s even worse is, the percentage of divorce goes up for second and third marriages.
Only one percent of couples who actively pray together get divorced. I usually don’t go with the odds, but in this case it’s worth considering…
Surface Diversity
In the United States, we get diversity wrong. We have been taught that a diverse group is a group with multiple skin colors. This barely scratches the surface.
A group of ten white men is diverse. Oh they are all white, so there are those who see no further than that. But inside each man is a person with unique experiences, beliefs, causes, struggles and strengths. Inside is where diversity lies, not outside.
Keep this in mind when you are putting together a team. Focus on finding the best add to your group, people with unique gifts. Then you will have achieved diversity…
Storms
We are in the middle of thunderstorm season. I love those storms. But what about the storms of life? Those seem to be in season all the time.
We live in an imperfect world. Stuff will happen that we cannot anticipate. Our attitude in facing the storm will determine our outcome. We must remember that God is in control, we aren’t. He doesn’t cause bad things to happen to us or our loved ones, but He does allow them.
When we think about how great God is, and we realize there is absolutely nothing He can’t do, we find peace. God will see us through whatever we are dealing with. Put your focus on Him and not the storm. Then we will see His hand in our lives. You can’t miss it…
Go Through
All of us have challenges in our lives. Some pass quickly, while some are longer term. What do we do when faced with obstacles?
We might be tempted to avoid facing the challenges of life. We can numb them out with alcohol or drugs, put them off until tomorrow, or we can work through them.
Going through difficult periods is rarely easy or quick. We learn from them, though, when we face them and go through them. The trials of life might last a few days, but they might go on for years.
Whatever you are facing, I encourage you to not give up. You will find victory over your challenges, but you find it through perseverance and determination. Just keep going…
