Thought of the Day–11/16/17

Yule Log

Thought of the Day—Isn’t it interesting how an image or even a particular song can transport you back to a special place and time in your life?  It’s great to reminisce but leave the past in the past; embrace with great anticipation new memories and special moments that God has for you today, in the here and now…

Confession

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…

CORN

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–11/7/17

Hand to hold

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
