The character and quality of our life is forged in little moments. Every day we lay another layer of bricks on the structure of what our life will be.
The concept of mindfulness has become an increasingly popular subject, as more and more people realize that they want to live each moment to the full and embrace the concepts of paying attention, doing few things at a time but doing them well, and living in the moment.
Boulders and Burdens
Doesn’t it sometimes feel like you are pushing a boulder up a hill, only to have it roll back down? Maybe it even rolls right over you on its way.
Faith is what unlocks God’s ability both to help us with our burdens now and bring us to victory in the future.
The Thanksgiving Special
It took time to learn that dark times are important. I had always enjoyed the ‘flowers’ of life but it took thorns to show me the beauty of God’s comfort. You know, the Bible says that God comforts us when we’re afflicted and from His consolation we learn to comfort others.
Well, my experience says that the thorns make the roses more precious. We treasure God’s providential care more during trouble than at any other time.
Acting Upbeat When Feeling Down
It is not being hypocritical to put on a happy face even when you don’t feel happy. It’s a sign of inner strength and maturity.
Acting more positive than you feel also does you good and will often help bring you out of your funk.
You Are Beautiful
Some people have things pretty mixed up. They spend so much time and energy trying to perfect their bodies and make themselves beautiful, but they neglect their inner selves, the unique and beautiful spirits God gave them.
There is only one kind of beauty that can transcend all time. It’s the beauty of the spirit that lights the very eyes, and transforms.
