Thought of the Day—The most important conversation you’ll ever have is between you and God. But just how is that going to occur if you don’t ever allow yourself to just sit in silence and listen?

Thought of the Day—As we transition from the season of thanks to the season of giving, we need to continue to be in an attitude of thanksgiving. For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6 (NIV)

Thought of the Day—It has been one month ago today that our beautiful sister/wife/mom/aunt/friend Jennifer left this world to live an eternal, abundant life with our Heavenly Father. And while we all continue to grieve in our own way, memories about Jennifer remain a constant to ease the pain of our loss. Here’s one bit of information about Jennifer I bet most people knew; she loved frogs, as was reflected in every room of her home. She also loved the playful peace frog which seemed to be a throwback to the hippie era. But did you know that the word frog is also an acronym for Fully Rely On God? So here’s a Thought of the Day from Jennifer and her beloved frogs; FULLY RELY ON GOD AND HE WILL GIVE YOU PEACE…peace…love…out…

Thought of the Day—Let your many thanks to God on this Thanksgiving day be greater than the heaping portions on your plate…

Thought of the Day— May your heart always emit a sweet fragrance to God. Our lives are a Christ-like fragrance rising up to God. But this fragrance is perceived differently by those who are being saved and by those who are perishing. 2 Corinthians 2:15 (NLT)

Thought of the Day—Do you want to know a secret? There are no secrets with God; He knows everything we’ve done and said anyway…it’s just a matter of being real with Him and confessing what He already knows. Don’t you think our human relationships would go a little smoother if we were more open and honest with others? I’m not talking about brute force honesty but speaking out truth in love…

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—Prayer and God’s Word; power tools that anyone can use…

Thought of the Day—Placing a tiara on your head and calling yourself a princess doesn’t necessarily make it so unless you plan to rule over the Land of Delusion…ask God to help you accept the person you are right now with all of your imperfections while He works to transform you into what you were intended to be all along…a reflection of His grace and mercy…

Thought of the Day—Birds aren’t intended to be held in captivity but to fly free and uninhibited. So it is with our souls; God doesn’t want us to get entangled by the woes of this world but rather to soar above our circumstances and to focus on the bigger picture. For we are only sojourners on a journey and this is not our home. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be involved in this world to influence positive change while we are here… just don’t be tempted to pitch a tent…
