What Could Go Right
Instead of wondering about things not working out, what if you considered what could go right. What if things were to come together in your favor. Your hopes, your dreams, all coming together in God’s perfect time – that’s a beautiful dream and a beautiful way to think. You know we don’t get brownie points […]
You Never Know What Is Preparing You
You never know what is preparing you. Seriously, it is rather fascinating to consider. Do you ever look back at certain things in your past and suddenly have an epiphany of what that was preparing you for? Or even realize that if it weren’t for the experience you had had in one area, you never […]
Delight Yourself in the Lord
“Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart.” -Psalm 37:4 Do you take time to delight yourself in the Lord? To build a closer relationship with Him and get to know Him more personally? Church and church groups are nice, but if you don’t already, learn to look […]

Why not incorporate courage and boldness into […]
When One Door Closes
“When one door closes another opens.” – Alexander Graham Bell First off, I had no idea this saying was credited to Alexander Graham Bell! Closed doors typically surprise me. I guess I don’t often feel that the answer in life is very often no. Rather “wait” seems to be the result of the unknown. Rarely […]
Scared and Excited
Seeing dreams come to pass can be scary. This never fails to surprise me. If they are dreams of mine – or even something I’m hoping for – then why is it intimidating and scary, in addition to being exciting?! I remember a line out of a movie I saw ages ago and the main […]
The Key to Success
The key to success is playing the hand you were dealt like it was the hand you wanted. I have no idea who this quote originated with, but I find it inspiring! Time and time again, as I look around at different people living their lives, the common theme that I admire is those who […]
