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— 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…
Thought of the Day—I don’t know what’s scarier about Halloween, the creepy little beggars banging at the door or the fact that tomorrow is already the first day of November…
Thought of the Day—Sometimes grief hangs stagnant in our lives like a low hanging, dark smothering cloud deck, just waiting to descend and choke out our joy. But time has a way of eventually blowing the dark foreboding clouds away, even if just long enough to allow us to see that the sun does actually still shine and our hope is still intact…weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning. Psalm 30:5
Thought of the Day— Having influential friends can be a good OR a bad thing. Make sure you have a circle of friends that build you up instead of pulling you down to their level…
Thought of the Day— What kind of attitude do you carry around? Do you look at the woes of this world and declare, “There is no hope!” or do you embrace the truth that hope most certainly rises up and makes it’s self known in the most unlikely places?
Thought of the Day—When you lose someone you cherish, you can certainly water the garden of thanksgiving with your tears of grief. But even though you have to contend with the weeds of sorrow, the beautiful memories that blossom in that garden will undoubtedly sustain you for years to come…In memory of my beautiful sister, Jennifer May 23, 1955 – October 25, 2017
