Often we find ourselves situated in uncomfortable positions through no choice of our own. We may encounter difficulties at school, work, the grocery store, driving, or simply walking down the street. Some Things You Cannot Control The issues can be as normal as getting stuck without an umbrella in a forecasted rainstorm, sitting in unmoving traffic because of a stuck bridge, driving our usual route to a destination and be redirected by a road detour, we may be standing at a station waiting for a late bus, plane or train,...

Take time to show all of the people you love that you care. Make time to greet them warmly when they visit. When they make time to call you, sit down, relax, and enjoy their conversation. Put the time in your schedule to call them occasionally and visit their residences too. Send a picture, card, joke, or flowers and a note. Every Second of Life is Precious We all understand that every second of our lives is precious. Yet we often rush through our days without enjoying much of it....

I believe that we each view and experience grief differently. Some of us cry others scream, some shut down, and yet others become mentally lost. I think that you can actually have, or go through all of these emotions plus others that I did not mention. Allow Time to Heal from Grief I believe that we must allow each person...

Finding Joy in the Simplest Moments Do you ever recognize and embrace the beauty that comes from the simplest moments of life? Tonight I listened to part of an audiobook by Wayne W. Dyer entitled Invisible. The wisdom he shared is solid, loving, nurturing, and kind. His words inspire, uplift, and encourage; and his gift of writing has blessed many lives. I Love Seeing Others Shine I find myself drawn to the goodness and light in others, and I always enjoy seeing others shine. I believe there is room for all...

Your Life is important You are not lost, overlooked, forsaken, and you are not alone. You are a blessing! You were created out of God's love and born with a divine purpose. Your life is valuable to God, and He will always cherish you. God Loves You Even if you have not walked in your God-given purpose before, God wants you to know that you are deeply loved and that you are highly favored. It does not matter what you have been through, what you are presently going through, or what...

God Loves You As You Are There is never a reason to ever compare your life to anyone else. God took great care and gifted each one of us our own unique journey and walk of faith. Even identical twins have different gifts, dreams, talents, and aspirations. They may have lots of similarities, but one may love science, and the other may excel in math. Shine in Your Own Way What I choose to like is based on my individual thoughts, desires, and preferences. What you choose to like is based...

We are All Deeply Loved By God  Life challenges can make some of our days harder than we would like. I know that some of us have more struggles than others. I also know that we...
