The inner critic. That negative voice in our head. It can be so loud and if we listen to it will transform the day from grand to grumpy. We get started on something with the best intentions. Then that voice comes up, seemingly out of nowhere, to stop us in our tracks.

Maybe it whispers-I should be further along by now.

Possibly it compares- Why is that person achieving this, and I’m not?

Could be a name caller-I’m such a [insert negative word here].

Believe me, you’re not alone. EVERYONE has that voice. When that inner voice stops us from doing what we truly are passionate about, that’s when we need to kick it to the curb

It’s unrealistic to be positive all the time but we can squelch the critic. Reframe those thoughts and spin them to the positive. See how far we HAVE come. Be gentle with yourself. You are uniquely made for a purpose. Your best is enough.

For there is always light, if only we’re brave enough to see it, if only we’re brave enough to be it. Amanda Gorman







Psalms 139:14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made:
marvellous are thy works;
and that my soul knoweth right well.

Success requires faith. We will struggle to succeed if we don’t have faith in the plan for our life, our dreams and our goals. Faith is a multitude of things. Persistence, mental stamina, grit, confidence, belief, conviction, certainty, hope, tenacity, fearlessness, boldness, resoluteness, determination, resolve, will, and courage. That all results in never quitting on our dreams, our goals and the pursuit of our God given purpose.

Faith enables us to overcome obstacle on the path to our goals, not letting anything get in our way. Faith is the most important ingredient to success. I hope that you will take the time to think about what in this life will bring you joy, satisfaction and purpose. Find your passion, have faith and go after it.

Success is peace of mind, which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you made the effort to do your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming. Coach John Wooden

I read this recently and it really hit home… If you listen to any thought long enough, it becomes a part of your personal playlist. Soundtracks made of music have the ability to completely transform a moment... The soundtracks made of thoughts are even more powerful. They’re much bigger than just background music.

As retired Navy SEAL David Goggins says, The most important conversations you’ll ever have are the ones you’ll have with yourself.

You wake up with them. ⠀
You walk around with them. ⠀
You go to bed with them. ⠀
And eventually you learn to act on them, whether they be good or bad.⠀

When you speak positively into your life, your thoughts can be your greatest ally, making you brave and launching you into fabulous adventures. Breathing creativity and hope into your days. If your day is spent overthinking the negativity, your thoughts can be your worst enemy. This can cause you to second guess yourself and hold you back from ever stepping out of your comfort zone. Speak to yourself well and your life will reflect the positive influence. Focus on what’s going right and be grateful for another day to live life to the fullest.

Take time to feed your soul, compliment yourself, pamper yourself, smile at yourself, think positive thoughts and speak life. Watch how you talk to yourself – because you are listening. Germany Kent







Phil 4:6-7 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Peace and tranquility...Doesn’t that sound nice?! Our daily life is often stressful and maybe a bit overwhelming. This world can be chaotic and complicated, adding to our stress levels. Peace is one of the most important qualities we need in our life. The lack of it can make it so hard to appreciate all of the blessings. Happiness is good and most of us are trying to achieve the goal of being happy but, happiness can fade with negative circumstances. Peace is not affected by the highs and lows or good and bad.

To help us find peace we can focus on experiences rather than things, and what is meaningful in our life. Choosing to be intentional about taking time for ourselves, creativity, prayer and spirituality. Making time for relationships, friends, staying active, healthy and well. These things can reduce our stress levels and increase endorphins, the happy hormones, moving us toward the peace and serenity we desire. The turning of a page starts now. Your best is enough.

Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass...It’s about learning to dance in the rain. Vivian Greene







John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

As adults, we sometimes forget that we are always growing. We often lose sight of how we are developing and renewing all the time. We live through many seasons of growth, change, abundance and blessings. Those seasons we often embrace and want to last forever!

There are also seasons of loneliness, times of brokenness and loss. The hard seasons of life. We aren’t always going to have an answer for why things happen the way they do. We might find ourselves wracking our brains to try to figure out how to make things better or easier.

While changes can come from the outside, growth always comes from within you. We could ask why me or what if but maybe we should ask what’s next.

And all the lives we ever lived and all the lives to be are full of trees and changing leaves. Virginia Wolf







Jam 1:2-3 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

Glimmers are spontaneous tiny moments that have the ability to make us feel happy, peaceful, hopeful or safe. The color of the flowers, the sound of the trees or the beautiful sky. Soaking up the giggle and smile on the sweet face of a child. The small joys that remind us all is well. Far too often we don’t notice them. Even when we do, we let them go so quickly. Let’s do our best to notice those glimmers today. The more you notice them the more glimmers you will have. Keep your eyes open for them today.

Bitterness keeps you from flyin...always stay humble and kind.

Confidence is good but it’s important to stay humble as well. Being humble can be challenging. Thinking of others more than ourselves allows us to see beyond our little world. Humble people are not trying to impress anyone.

Being humble means you do things out of the kindness of your heart, without the expectation of anything in return. With humbleness is kindness which is free to give and can be shared at any time. A little kindness can go a long way and it’s good for you as well! It feels good to be nice and help others and it can physically make you feel happier.

While being kind to one person may not change the entire world, it could change the world for that one person.

The only wisdom we can hope to acquire is the wisdom of humility. T.S. Eliot







1 Pet 5:6-7 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Are you content? Life can throw some punches but when we count our blessings we can see the good in every day. I saw this poem the other day and thought I would share.

Drinking From The Saucer
by John Paul Moore
I’ve never made a fortune,And I’ll never make one now But it really doesn’t matter Cause I’m happy anyhowAs I go along my journey. I’m reaping better than I’ve sowed. I’m drinking from the saucer. Cause my cup has overflowed. I don’t have a lot of riches, And sometimes the going’s tough. But with kin and friends to love me. I think I’m rich enough. I thank God for the blessings. That His mercy has bestowed. I’m drinking from the saucer. Cause my cup has overflowed. He gives me strength and courage. When the way grows steep and rough. I’ll not ask for other blessings for. I’m already blessed enough. May we never be too busy. To help bear another’s load. Then we’ll all be drinking from the saucer. When our cups have overflowed

May your cup overflow and you drink from the saucer!







James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

Goals come in all sizes. There are some tangible ones, goals that require us to dig deep, lofty goals, big scary goals. When we set a goal we need to figure out which one of these our goal may be and find the path to achieving it. Don’t be afraid to dream big!

As you work your plan and pursue your dreams, You may need to take a step back occasionally. Don’t get discouraged if you have to press pause on the grand plan.
Take a deep breath.
Have faith.
Don’t lose heart.

You’ll get where you are meant to go, even if it doesn’t seem like it right now. A momentary sacrifice is not final surrender. Sometimes it’s necessary to fall back before you move forward and fulfill your ultimate dream and your vision for your life. Your best is enough.

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time. Thomas A. Edison







Phil 3:14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

We don’t have a crystal ball to know how things will turn out when we step out of our comfort zones. We do have this moment to give it our all. To have hope for real change, real growth. We have grace for the future that can overcome the fear of not being strong or brave enough. Dare to dream. Have Hope. Don’t give up!

Never tell yourself you’re too old to make it. Never tell yourself you missed your chance. Never tell yourself that you aren’t good enough. Whatever it is that sets your soul on fire. Be brave enough to go after it.

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. Eleanor Roosevelt.







Deut 31:6 Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

Most people don’t fail because they aren’t capable. They fail because they quit. They get tired of losing and feeling behind. Tired of looking inept.
So they walk away. Oftentimes right before a turning point of success.
We don’t need to be the smartest or most talented. We don’t need some rare gift. We just need to stay with it longer than everybody else.

Every loss and failure is teaching us something. Every setback is sharpening our judgment. We are building the strength and skills needed for when the opportunity finally shows up. But only for those who are still standing. The pressure and struggle you feel right now will be worth it if you don’t quit.

Give up and it will all go to waste.
All the pain. All the lessons and painful growth. Stay in the game. The people who win aren’t special, they just refused to quit when everybody else did.

Embrace what you don’t know, especially in the beginning, because what you don’t know can become your greatest asset. Sara Blakely







Deut 31:8 And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.

02/17/2026

If we spend our lives waiting for someone or something to happen, we are going to miss out on living the life we were meant to have. You might not be where you want to be right now. Totally get that, it is easy to wish away today dreaming about a potential tomorrow. There is a plan and purpose for you right now. Not out there, or one day, but today.

Don’t miss todays goodness busy wanting more. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to waste my days wishing for something else. Embrace today while you can. See the moments, people, loved ones in front of you right now. Show up the best you can, love others well. Find joy and satisfaction in it. Your life is already here. Don’t miss it.

Always hold fast to the present. Every situation, indeed every moment, is of infinite value, for it is the representative of a whole eternity. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe







Psalms 90:12 So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
