Some people take care of their pets better than the do themselves.  Their animals can run like the wind, and they can barely make it up a flight of stairs.  Make sure the outside of you is a good reflection of the inside of you. Treat your body like a temple – not an outhouse.  No one but you could be better at looking after your own health.  The mind and the body work together.  If you take care of your bod, it can take you wherever you want to go with the power, strength, energy, and vitality you’ll need

My husband and I have been in the home improvement business for over 40 years.  We’ve done everything from changing out a doorknob to multi-million-dollar contracts.  I read a long time ago that “Life is a do-it-yourself project”.  I completely disagree.  There is nothing in this life that is to be done “yourself”.  God has placed himself around every aspect of your life.  He is before you, behind you, around you and within you.  There is nothing you can do or say to push him away.

I got a custom license plate a few years ago.  BNXMPL  (It’s also my gmail address so feel free to email me! 😊)  I put it on my car and I’m pretty sure vehicles I drove next to deciphered the meaning because they’d honk and wave.  (At least that’s what I imagine that wave was.)  It seemed much more friendly of a wave than if I’d cut them off in traffic.  I had a man on a beautiful chopped out Harley pull up next to me on his bike and yelled over the engine, “How about a bad example?”  I

This morning I was praying and thinking about a picture I had made of me and mom.  It’s coming up on the 7-year anniversary of mom’s passing and some days it seems like yesterday.  The picture frame has the words, “I love you more” on it.  I heard God tell me in my spirit, “I love you more.” I can’t believe that God is so awesome to tell me He loves me more than a kid can love their parent.  He is my parent…my father and He took the time this morning to remind me how much He loves me. 

I honestly don’t know how he can make a way when I see no way out sometimes. I’ve been in some tight spots in my life, had financial problems, health scares, parental worries.  I’ve stressed out over them, lost sleep, cried.  Thinking back at them now; I’d definitely say that praying gave me the most peace.  It didn’t magically make my issues go away but it gave me peace in the moment.  Maybe that’s why the Bible says, “Pray continually.” When we fill speak our fears to God, we hand the baton to Him.  If it gives you just a
