Time flies, doesn't it?! Although we can't slow time down (believe me, I’ve wished for it), we CAN make our time more meaningful.

Why do we wait to ask for help?? Maybe we think we can do it ourselves or we don’t deserve the help—or are we too afraid to ask? Doing it ourselves was never the way life was supposed to be.

My Father was a man of uprightness and said, “There are two things worth dying for, God and your Good Name.” He had such amazing integrity and that example is something I am so grateful for and have tried to emulate every day of my life.

We all come up short in our daily lives and sometimes that is the source for a great deal of discouragement, but I try to remember, God expects us to make mistakes.

This life is beautiful and there is such great joy in it, but life can also hit us upside the head to get our attention.

At the end of the day, I try to always take a moment to reflect upon the subtle ways God has constantly worked wonders and blessed my life... then... I write them down! 📔
