I BELIEVE in the Power of Prayer. Isn’t it wonderful that God created prayer as a primary method of putting us into personal contact with Him any day or night, any hour of the day? He is always there. He’s always with you and always ready to hear our prayer. Even when you cannot mouth […]

Either They Like You Or They Don’t
Some people are just not going to like you. No matter what you say or do, some people just won’t ever like you. And that’s not on you. That’s something to do with them. It’s who they are. Either they like you or they don’t. Never try to convince somebody of your worth. If a […]
No Matter What You Do
You have to live your life for yourself. You can’t let anyone else’s opinion change who you are or what you do. Once you start changing who you are to please someone else, you can become stressed, less confident, less self-assured and depressed. No matter what you do, someone will talk about you. Someone will […]
What Goes Around, Comes Around
It’s true. You get what you give. Sometimes what we want so, so much is something we are not giving. And because we don’t give it, we never receive it. What do you think other people see when they look at you or what do you think they feel “comes from you” once they’ve been […]
Respect Is Earned Not Given
Where has respect gone? It seems to be a distant concept–something people did “back in the day”. Families don’t seem to have respect among themselves and the way I hear children talk to their parents, parents don’t seem to teach it either. What’s happened? Children and young people do not seem to respect each other […]
I Want A Happy Life
As I’ve grown older, I’ve learned to recognize stress “triggers” for me. People who are always creating drama or who are involved in conflict will bring stress into my life if I allow it. I’ve learned over the years to make sure that I steer clear of the drama and conflict-filled folks. I don’t want […]
Always Believe
Do you wake up happy? Or are you one of those that needs a wide berth before your first couple cups of coffee? Did you know that one, small positive thought in the morning can change your entire day to a positive day? And that one day can change your week which can change your […]
God Is Changing Your Heart
We’ve all had prayers that we’ve prayed over and over again. But no matter how long or how much we prayed, the situation just didn’t change. Can you relate? Maybe you were praying about a family member. Maybe it was about a spouse. Maybe you were praying about a job situation. But the situation stayed […]
Before You…
Did you mother ever say, “Talk less, listen more” or “You can’t just speak anything that comes into your head…THINK first!” Mine did. As younger people, we have all made incorrect assumptions, made hurtful judgments, hurt others and we’ve all spoken before thinking. Before you assume, learn the facts. Before you judge, understand why. Before […]
Never Lose Hope
It ain’t over until God says it’s over. No matter how many times you get knocked down, no matter how many times someone tells you that it’s over, no matter how hard it is to keep going, it ain’t over until God says it’s over. Never lose hope. Just when you think it’s over, God […]
