  Who lives in your world? Obviously family, friends, co-workers (if you work), neighbors? Church family? Who else? I suspect there are far more residents in your world than you realize. What about what you do in your world – who are you and what do you do? Are you ‘known’? Or are you relatively […]

  Not a word? If not, consider it coined. To me, this is the foundation for the action of one who has integrity. When you check Webster to discover the definition of integrity you find: “…the quality of being honest and fair”. Quality. When you discover some of the synonyms you read – virtue, goodness,

  Whatever you are facing, whatever is challenging you, whatever is the obstacle in front of you… how you respond, or don’t, your attitude, and subsequent behavior will either make or break you. Perhaps not immediately, but it will continue to ‘speak’ into your life until you do face the results of your decisions and

  It’s true. We are messy. Even with the ‘best of intentions’ we are messy. I really don’t think this is a great revelation to the Lord – but He chose to save us anyway. And that’s what we need to focus on. Related to this is a question about how can we love like God?

Rarely does just ‘thinking’ about (fill in the blank) create the same level of feeling

  I read on Facebook – “The same boiling water that softens potatoes hardens eggs. It’s all about what you are made of not your circumstances.” Yes! Another statement that should cause us to rethink how we are looking at our life and times. It is our perspective that will determine our perception which makes

  Seriously – have you ever thought about the fact that since you are alive right now that this is your time? You are uniquely placed right now, right here. It isn’t an accident that you were born for this time and you do have a mission to fulfill… if you choose to accept it.  

  Regardless of where you are on the age continuum, are you experiencing your good life? Age really has little to do with being in your good life place. Fame, fortune, peripheral ‘things’ are only add on’s, they are not the essential and eternal values that demonstrate that you are living your good life.   I

  Let’s face it. We ALL look to discovering the expedient and, hopefully(?), easy way to accomplish (fill in the blank). This ‘mindset’ is true for us in a variety of situations, but it is especially true when it comes to extricating ourselves from a ‘bad’ situation. This may sound harsh but I think it’s
