We, as humans like to believe we are in control of our lives. We are only in charge of our attitude which influences our decisions. God directs our steps, and places people in our lives to get His will accomplished. Pay attention. Trust His timing…

See Me!
Never be afraid to show the world who you are. There are those who will judge you. That’s their problem, not yours. If you are doing what’s true, right and noble, the opinions of small-minded people don’t matter…
Drug Culture
Every third television commercial is about a drug. The pharmaceutical industry is consistently among the top three in monies spent on lobbying. A wellness physician I know told me that when he recommends small changes a patient should make for better health, ninety percent of the the time patient asks for a drug remedy.
It’s time to change our thinking about artificial solutions that don’t require work. We have most everything we need in our bodies to ward off disease. Let’s use them…
p.s. I am not talking about people who are mentally ill and need psychotropics. It’s not their fault.
Dumpsters
You are here for a higher purpose, bringing others with you in your journey into the light. Remove the people from your life who treat you like a dumpster.
Accept the fact that you can’t change the hearts of mankind. Only God can do that. Let Him do His work while you do yours…
Everyone Matters
Every person matters. We can be impressed by the number of degrees people have, their titles, accomplishments or possessions, but that’s not who they are. We are all equally important in the eyes of God. His opinion is the only one that matters.
Treat others with kindness. Show compassion. We are in this battle called life together…
Be Strong Enough
Why are we tearing each other apart over political differences?
All of us have beliefs and convictions. It’s not a threat to allow others to challenge us. Living in an echo chamber, aligning yourself only with those who agree with you is dangerous and limits open-mindedness. Be confident. Be strong enough to accept others where they are…
Stories Matter
All of us are writing our own life story. Let’s write stories about the reach and impact we’ve had on others, focusing on fulfillment rather than accomplishments and possessions. Be relevant…
Imaginary Conversations
Do you have conversations in your head? Of course you do! We are talking to ourselves all the time. Just like the conversations you have with other people, make sure your self-talk is worth listening to…
Religion
I don’t believe in organized religion. Religion has been used to hurt people. Personally, I follow Jesus and try to live up to the example He set for us. Jesus was a radical, saying things like “love your enemies,” and “pray for those who persecute you.” One thing He didn’t do was bring the world more religion. He showed us the true character of God.
Religion will continue. The rules of religion (no drinking or dancing etc) will remain. I simply study the life of the One who redeemed and restored hurting people…
Worth
Our culture is caught up in what we have and where we live, what I call our “status and stuff.” There is so much more to life than those things. The world is changed through the goodness in the heart of mankind…
