The Right Choice
All of us have made decisions in our lives that haven’t served us well. Sometimes we make the same decisions repeatedly, knowing they are wrong. Forgive yourself if you have been guilty of this.
The choice of how to live our lives is ours and ours alone. We can make decisions that lead us to light and life, or we can pursue darkness. The desire to change begins with abandoning old ways, replacing them with new, better ways. But it’s up to us to decide…
Outliers
Do you ever feel like an outlier? You know, someone who is different from the rest.
All of us are outliers. That’s one of the things that makes the mosaic of planet earth so full of beauty. Each of us is uniquely gifted and talented. Recognize your gifts and put them to work to create good in the world. You really are special…
God’s Voice
God is still speaking to us. Sometimes He uses other people to get a message to us, while other times we might get His word from something we read. But He isn’t silent, even during the times we aren’t talking to Him.
There’s a lot of noise in the world. Talking heads, blow hard politicians and negative people can consume our energy if we let them. Spend some time in silence every day. Clarity comes when you eliminate the noise…
Better
Advertisers tell us about “new and improved” products all the time. They set our expectations higher.
When it comes to self reflection, shouldn’t we be asking ourselves this question: How can I be better?
Create It!
We become what we think about, so where do your thoughts lie? And if you pray, pray expectantly, thanking God before your prayer is answered. Then believe it will happen…
The Madness
Everywhere you look it seems the world has gone mad. The craziest among us get the attention, and how dare we stand up for what’s right because we are marginalizing the minority.
Yet I believe in the goodness of mankind. There is good everywhere, too. You just have to look for it. And if you can’t find it? Be good…
Patience
It’s said that “patience is a virtue,” but I have a difficult time being patient. Yet I don’t think I’m without virtues.
My patience runs thin with ignorant, rude people. My patience’s is infinite with toddlers. Toddlers are just trying to learn how the world works. I’m trying to learn that myself!
If you struggle with patience, remember that you aren’t missing virtues. You are simply human…
Don’t Do It!
Life is hard. Sometimes it seems like every time you get on track, something knocks you back down.
If you ever feel like giving up, just step away for a brief time. But whatever you do, don’t quit. Quitting is never an option…
The Silence of Fear
Most people are living in fear of something. The genesis of fear can be traced to the past. Perhaps we have experienced loss and are afraid of losing again.
Fear remains silent because we don’t want to be seen as fearful. Facing our fears frees us from the hold the past has on us, allowing us to experience more from life.
Do you want to live fully? Face your fears and they become powerless over you…
