Outward Focus…
Are you so focused on your own success that you miss the success of others? Cheer your friends and acquaintances on in their pursuits. Other people who are successful aren’t a threat to you. They complement you…
Restoration…
We love happy endings to movies, don’t we? Hallmark has perfected this. Do you know why we love these movies? It’s because we want restoration, we want happy endings in our lives…we want to know order will be restored and everything will make sense in the world. These movies give us hope that they are possible.

Story Time…
Behind what we see lies a unique, beautiful story. Everyone has one. What chapter are you currently writing?
Disagreements…

Writer’s Block!

Memorial Day…
Memorial Day is a Remembrance Day established in 1868 that officially became a holiday in 1971. We are called to remember the brave men and women who died while serving our country in the military.

We have freedoms here in America that others don’t have. What some take for granted others cherish. It is because of our freedom that people can peaceably protest or fail to stand for the National Anthem. Whether we agree with these things or not isn’t the point. We have the freedom to choose.
So however you are spending the day, with family and friends, barbecuing or on the lake, I encourage you to take a moment at 3:00 to pause and reflect. We must #neverforget…
