Thought of the Day—“I sure would like another pay cut”, said no one…ever. Why do we short change ourselves when it comes to God’s resources? He will provide our needs if we would only ask Him…Philippians 4:19 And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.
Thought of the Day—Regardless of your New Year resolutions for this year, let us resolve to love more, judge less and be courageous enough to stand up for our own values and convictions. Be the example God intended for us to be; for there is always someone looking for a good model of character to follow…
Thought of the Day—Remember Tomorrowland; that procrastinator’s paradise of distant time and place where we put all things off until? “I’ll do that tomorrow” or “we’ll deal with that next year…” Well, guess what; reality check…we’ve arrived!! May you allow God to gently guide you through this day, this moment; to ease you in to what you ultimately have to face and accomplish this week, this month, or this year…
The only way you can be a true light in this world of darkness is if you allow yourself to be brave, vulnerable and visible. Isn’t it time you start using the tools God gave you to make a real positive difference in your own little world?
Thought of the Day—As we face a new year with uncertainty, I would much rather put my trust and life in God’s hands, than to gamble on fate to safely take me through. Whose hands would you rather rest in times of trouble?
Thought of the Day—So an unkind word or action was shot your way and you suddenly find yourself, the recipient of a hairline fracture to the heart. Even though the storm clouds of resentment start rolling in, remember this. Bitterness, resentment and revenge won’t heal that heart of yours; only time and forgiveness. Forgiveness is the most powerful tool at your disposal to dispel those resentment clouds and is the only instrument of healing to benefit both the giver and receiver…
Thought of the Day—Jesus isn’t the reason for the season…we are…For if sin had not entered into this world and if we were not in such a desperate state of need, there would be no need for a Savior to save us from our sins…but here we are, with that very need. So we, the receivers of God’s most perfect gift, celebrate the gift of Jesus this season and we worship God the Father for His perfect love for us! John 3:16-17 (NIV) For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
Thought of the Day—A candle in the window is meant to draw people home, towards the light that shines in the darkness. We are to be that same light, in this world of darkness. Never underestimate your ability to draw others into your warmth, for you are your Father’s child… Matthew 5:16 (NIV) In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
Thought of the Day—Living life without purpose is like footprints left in the sand; we leave temporary impressions that are soon erased by the ebb and flow of life’s tides…strive to discover what God’s plan is for your life so you can leave behind a lasting legacy that will positively impact future generations…
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?
