Fear of Missing Out…
People will make emotional decisions when they feel like they might miss out on something. I encourage you to use wisdom and discernment when faced with big decisions. Pray about them, and listen for the voice of our Creator to guide you…
Gratitude…
There is always something to be grateful for. Think about your heartbeat, fresh air to breathe and food in your refrigerator. Focus on what you have, not what you lack…
Toxins…
