Reflections Okay, so if you think about it for a moment, what is one of the most important words in the English vocabulary? The important word is NOW. Why is this the case? Well, this is because it has a lot of real significance. We don't have tomorrow. It is not guaranteed, at least not in this life. The past is unimportant. It is gone and forgiven. NOW is a beautiful board of promise that has great potential. We have the potential to tell those that we admire how much they mean to us and how valuable they are. This can be done with a few kind words or even a kind act. But, it is so important. You may never have another opportunity. Think about it. We have the potential to make someone elses life better with a little inspiration, motivation, and encouragement. This could be a total stranger. Do you realize ho...

Beautiful Daydreams Have you ever watched someone go hunting? They set up a large net in the hopes of getting their prey. Now, let's consider the effect of fear and worry on the journey man's travel. Fear and worry are negative factors. They come in various forms..through people, situations or circumstances. It is like a net that is set for the joyful heart of the journey man to try and captivate it and bring it down. It can be hard to avoid such snares in humanity's realm.

The Power And The Beauty Of Love The concept of love is a difficult thing to truly think about. Why is this so? When you live in an imperfect world, it can be hard to reflect upon everything in a great light. Yet, when you think about pure, genuine love as from God's heart, this is a very real reality. So, the great question is can we love like the Lord loves us? When you think about this in human terms, it sounds completely unbelievable. How do you love someone who treats you badly or breaks your spirit? But, this is where you look outside of the traditional box. Think of each situation as if you were looking at it all through Jesus's eyes. Remember all that they did to him. He didn't use anger. Instead, he asked the Father to forgive them. Could you react in such a way? So, let love be your signature and calling card....

The Power Of Words They seem so small and simple. Yet, they can be the most complicated and harmful things in life. What am I talking about? The answer is words. Think about how you feel when someone says something hurtful to you. It could be a non-caring stranger who doesn't really care about the effect. It can also be a family member or friend who may say it unaware or even aware of its effects. So, there are two questions to ask yourself. First, what happens when you experience a hurtful interchange of words? The answer can be expressed in one word...you. Someone once told me...'don't ever let someone elses words hurt you. pray for them.' Pray for them? That can be a hard thing to do. But, the Lord can prepare you with an armor of strength each day and allow you to even be a blessing to your enemies. ...
