You make a difference!

Sometimes your presence is all that is needed to make a difference in someone's life.
Just your taking the time to reach out to someone to lift their spirits can change the direction of their day. A few simple words can encourage someone and inspire hope when circumstances seem hopeless.
Often times we may feel we lack the resources to meet a need, but even if that is the case, there is something we can still give - our time. It's one of the greatest things we can give in addition to love. Don't let what you think you don't have stop you from doing and giving what you do have.

I'm so grateful for the wonderful people that God sends across my path. All the warm hugs and smiling faces have added so much joy to my days. Keep encouraging, sharing your time, and your heart because you truly are making a difference in someone's life!

    You are so right. I often pray that God will point me in the right direction to be an encourager for others who need it. We should all stay alert for his prompts to say a kind word to or spend just a little time with someone who could us a little lift.

Do you have Christian Community?

As believers we are instructed in God's word to come together for fellowship with Christ and one another. One way to accomplish this is through Christian community. “But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin” 1 John 1:7. “And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching…” Hebrews 10:24. Christian community should not be about being in a social clique and it should extend beyond attending church. What it should be about is a body of believers coming together as one in Christ to share, love and care for one another. We should come together as the body of Christ to pray and worship with one another. We also should come together to help meet the needs of others. If we study the meaning of Jesu...

God has given me purpose!

God has given me purpose! I didn’t understand why I was called away from the only real church I knew and felt comfortable and loved? Why was I being called out of my comfort zone and into a place where I knew no one!?? Well as I’m looking back I see that God was answering my prayers about serving and pouring into His Kingdom! And I believe that He needed to get me away from everything and everyone that I was clinging to, so that I could hear Him, I mean really hear Him! I believe He also wanted me to come up higher and expect more from Him. My thinking was too small for what God has planned for my life! It’s amazing what the Lord will do through you and for you when you step out in faith and obedience! Obedience is key!...I have discovered my purpose! Grace & Peace

Obsessed with exercising again!

I've become obsessed with exercising again. Next to God and my family, its one of the things I think about most, ok and good food too! I just woke up one day and decided I'm so sick and tired of feeling unhealthy and not being physically fit and not doing anything consistently to change it. I want this to become a life style and not just sporadic impulses of going crazy exercising and losing a bunch of weight and then falling into a slump and gaining the weight back. My struggles with weight has been a constant battle since my early 30's and it doesn't seem to get any better as I get older. Determined to stay focused and shed the weight!
