It's not uncommon to feel stuck at certain times in our lives. Identifying what keeps us from moving forward is the first step in on-going progression. 

God grants us experiences and learning opportunities that naturally lead us toward the next step along our individual life paths. As with Moses, He will place solid ground under our feet as we realize He's preparing our way.

Exhibiting and expressing gratitude amidst the trials of life, can be difficult, but Oh, So worth it! Happy Thanksgiving!

If an important part of your life mission is to be happy, why not take control and make your own happy when it gets hard to find.

Preparing emotionally and spiritually for an uncertain future may be the most important thing you can prepare for.

Buying into philosophies, attitudes or opinions can be misleading sometimes. You don't always get what you pay for. Buying into Jesus and what He can deliver is the best investment you'll ever make.

The valuable gift of time is a commodity that we can't afford to take for granted. Effective time management skills are critical to the overall success of our lives. How do you spend your time?

We each have our own personal blend of magic. God has blessed each of us with the gifts and traits He needs us to share with the world, instead of burying them under a bushel.

Smiling has many physical and emotional benefits, but did you know that forcing a smile, even when you're "not feeling it" can change things all together?" Try one on, I think you'll like it!

Love is the constant compass that can help us prioritize our lives, thoughts, and actions. When we love God, others, and ourselves, it can change our lives.

Grounding is a practice that helps you feel centered and stable by making connections with the earth and your divine and physical bodies. Grounding ourselves in faith and God provides us with a sure foundation!

How do we find the truth, about anything? And how can we give space to those who have differing truths?

What gifts, talents, traits and values can we pay forward into the generations that follow us?

Our most experienced and learn-ed loved ones have a lot they can teach us, if we listen.

"Strait" doesn't always mean "straight". The path our lives and our discipleship take end up looking like detours and scenic routes, but in the end, the view will be magnificent!

Our weaknesses and shortcomings seem to stare us in the face...constantly! Try shifting your focus and see how quickly those weaknesses can become strengths.

We can't hit the mark every day, and every time. But when we miss the mark, remember "The difference between try and triumph, is just a little umph!" Marvin Phillips

Getting a handle on life, or getting a grip, can be perfectly illustrated by a simple bike ride.

The things we say to ourselves, or the self-talk we hear, can either be one of our greatest strengths, or the most believable lies.  We must guard those words carefully!

Words have power for good or bad. The words we choose say a lot about us, Choose those words carefully.
