Do you ever stop and evaluate your life, how far you have come? Do it now. Think back to where you were a year ago or five years ago. Take a look at your growth. Consider how your thinking has evolved.
We are all works in progress, no longer our former selves. And that’s a good thing…
We program computers to do the things we want. But have you ever considered the way you are programming your life?
Eating healthy food will give us better digestion and nutrition. Exercising regularly will give us fit bodies and prolong our lives. Engaging in stimulating conversations will activate our minds creatively. See the point?
If you desire better outcomes in any of the areas I mentioned, then take a closer look at your internal programming…
One of the greatest lies ever told comes from some of our politicians. There are those who want you to believe that you can’t make it without the government’s help. Remove this lie from your mind.
People go through times in their lives when they need help, no doubt. All of us are willing to help others who are trying to help themselves. What I’m talking about is dependency, relying on government aid rather than taking care of yourself and your responsibilities.
If you have a sound mind, you possess the ability to work through your challenges. All you have to do is get to work. You can do anything you set your mind to…
Acceptance is a broad subject to write about. In today’s culture, there are those who demand we accept them. That’s not really how acceptance works.
Self-acceptance might be our biggest challenge in life. We see all our faults, shortcomings and past failures. But we also see the good we have done. We have an invisible enemy who wants to keep us down, who reminds us of our past. But we have a real, invisible God who is for us. He is always on our side and wants us to love ourselves in a healthy way.
Keep your focus on the good you do and have done. Then do more and your self-acceptance will rise…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
I am in my hometown of Sherman, Texas as I write this. It’s my first time back in 26 years. And it’s weird.
Much has changed, but most has stayed the same. Restaurants and office buildings have exploded, but much of the charm of a small town remains.
I never really fit in here. Even as a child I wanted to be in a city. I got what I wanted, living in Austin, Texas. But this I know: people are pretty similar, whether in a small town or a large city. Everyone has the same wants, dreams and desires. ..
