Goodness Gracious
Why is it so easy to focus on the negative? Step aside for a moment from the poop pile bombarding us as we scroll, read, watch or listen to it. Have you ever considered doing the opposite of what you are used to? For example, have you ever thought to doubt fear rather than to…

Bestest!
Good. When it comes to our lives we think our plans are good. When life gets rough and things don’t go according to our expectations, we can feel jaded, disappointed, grieved, and upset. Our faith is tested or we blame God (gasp). We look back at the past and may wonder why bad things happened…

In Awe As Dreams Come True!

The Thrill Of Hope
It is beautiful to hope through impossible odds. Life is full of daunting circumstances and things often are out of our control. We can either settle with the grey and dismal normal or we can choose hope. One of my strategies in life has been to choose hope everyday. Making this choice has been better…

Raise A Hallelujah
One of the beautiful things about Jesus is the HOPE and the JOY He brings to any circumstance in life. I am constantly amazed at this life I get to live because it truly is the best!In can be easy to focus on the wrong things. The wrong things bring about worry, strife, fear, and…
