A friend of mine is going through a heartbreaking time. I made this for her today, and thought I'd post for anyone else who needs to hear it. The "He" in this quote is God, and the words are from the Bible. Several years ago, when I was enduring the same kind of emotional devastation… Continue reading He Will Heal The Brokenhearted
Do you get distracted when you look at others, their posts, their accomplishments? Are you comparing? I sure do, at times. Then I remind myself that we all have different callings, abilities, lights to shine. It's really destructive to compare because we will not "measure up". So, keep on pursuing your own purpose. And don't… Continue reading Comparison is Distracting
God's extreme sacrifice (of His Son) gave me true life. Not just life after death, but life in abundance while living. HE is the source of my joy, my life, my positive outlook, my passion, my love, my energy, my laughter, my caring, my creativity, and every other aspect of my blessed life. … Continue reading Thank You, God!
So here’s the deal. It’s NOT always sparkle and shine in my life. There are days like this week when I am burdened for a precious friend and feel helpless in the situation. When I am a bit tired of working, parenting alone, being this age with kids, being indoors, wanting something fun, loneliness, just… Continue reading Life Ain’t Always Sunshine and Roses
We all have creative power within us. It’s a source wired into our spirits and it’s a part of what makes us human. So think about this. You are creative and you create every single day! Your choices create consequences. Your actions create love or hate. Your words create life or death.… Continue reading Yes, YOU are Creative!
So really. Why would you follow in the exact footprints of someone else? They do not have YOUR unique qualities, gifts, abilities, and desires, and you don't have theirs. Should you fashion your life after what other people say? Should you let what is important to them be what guides you? Perhaps to some degree, if they are… Continue reading Write Your Own Script, My Dear
Oh darling, don't you know that who you are is the most amazing and fabulous gift to the world? Who you are is full of wonder and possibility. You deserve to be loved and fulfilled in what you do. I know it's tough many days. I know some of you are not in an ideal… Continue reading Do Not Apologize For Who You Are!
"Joy" is one of my favorite words. Even when life is a disappointment or a trial, we can still have a consistent joy. I believe that joy is that which runs deep in our spirit, and it flows from gratitude and appreciation, and the ability to recognize and cultivate them. Sometimes having joy requires making the… Continue reading Choosing Joy
Today I am sharing with you Vanessa's post on At The Picket Fence. She wrote about how we are called to be the light in this increasingly dark world. It resonated with me, perhaps because I believe my purpose is to shine my light as I speak life and truth in my writing and speaking, and even… Continue reading Be The Light (Guest Post)
I hope you have messed up really big. At least once in your life. Better yet, a whole bunch of messes. Mistakes. Wrong choices. Foot-in-your-mouth embarrassment and falling down onstage kinds of messing up. And please don’t think I’m mean, but I really hope that life has given you lemons. And disappointments. And some really… Continue reading I Hope You Blew It!
