Thought of the Day—A person surely harvests what he or she plants…what seeds do you have either at the ready to plant or in life’s fields already? Are they seeds of kindness or cruelty, of love or loathing, perhaps a burlap bag full of goodness instead of a threadbare sack of bitterness? It’s up to you; just remember, in the mindset of farm to table, you could very well end up with a plateful of chaos to devour with a big slice of humble pie for dessert…
Thought of the Day—Did you know it took every hue of humanity woven together to create such an exquisite tapestry called mankind? God really knew what He was doing…so why do we keep pulling at one another’s black and white threads?
Thought of the Day—When you live the life of a grateful heart, every day is a day of Thanksgiving…
Thought of the Day—It may take a village to raise a child, but that doesn’t give anyone the permission to abandon their children in the village square. We need to once again cherish and treat our children as they really are; a precious gift from God, an eternal soul entrusted to our care, the next generation in a pint sized form. They are not someone else’s responsibility, your best friend in training or constant irritant…they are a reminder from God to us that we too, still need to find the wonderment in the everyday, what it means to once again enjoy the essence of innocence in trusting others, to possess a colored blind heart… Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” Matthew 19:14
Thought of the Day—Isn’t it funny how, after losing a loved one, we sometimes feel guilty for moving on with our daily lives? It’s almost as if we are afraid to move forward because we might forget or disrespect that loved one. God didn’t intend for our life to stop the moment our loved ones’ did. Sometimes, we need to just pause and remember that person with a smile or a tear and move forward, one step at a time, one day at a time…
Thought of the Day—Time change—just another perfect example for God to slowly shake His head and mutter, “they’ll never get it”…
Thought of the Day—How welcome do you make others feel in your presence? Do they sense that they can knock on your heart’s door or do they cross the street to avoid your prickly pear persona? Something to ponder if you ever feel loneliness creeping in and wonder why…
Thought of the Day—Prayer and God’s Word; power tools that anyone can use…
Thought of the Day— What would it take to brighten YOUR day? What can you do to brighten someone else’s day? You would be surprised how much taking the time to make someone feel special can actually lift your own spirits…
Thought of the Day—Today is All Saints Day, yet we are tempted by all the leftover Halloween candy lying around…the struggle is real…
