Thankfulness is measured by the number of words. Gratitude is measured by the nature of our actions.
David O. McKay

Some get lucky and succeed by chance. Most succeed because they're determined to and it is their destiny. May you be blessed with determination to live up to the wondrous destiny God has planned for you.

Dear God, When I feel that I don’t have enough, remind me to search within for the strength You give me to succeed, rather than look to the
external things I lack. Help me grow in riches that matter. Grace me with sustenance. Permit me the satisfaction of a balanced life.

Deuteronomy 33:27 The eternal God is your dwelling place, and underneath is the everlasting arms.

REFLECTION ON GIFT GIVING

After polling my family on their last three favorite gifts, I discovered that they treasured the ones that involved us doing things together.

I’ve made up my mind to not spend money on another item to trip over, pick up, donate or store.

I'm all about giving time and experiences with those I love: dinner out, a class or a course to further a hobby or interest, coffee date, a book to read together, an overnight trip, or self-care and wellness gifts.

RETURN TO MAMA

Please pray for my niece Morgan going through a custody dispute and the father stole the baby while she was working. Prayers for the courts to have the wisdom to rectify the wrong, for Morgan to have peace in the midst of the nightmare, and for her son to be safe and protected from harm while away from his Mama.
