Consider this

 You can be unhappy. You can choose to let little things bug you.... or you can use this day for something good!  

 Deal with issues quickly. It is easier to prevent trouble than it is to fix it!  

                  I did not feel tired.   I was busy.   There was a lot going on, but I thought I was fine.   Then, last week, Sara and I rented a cabin by a lake, and I spent most of the first two days doing nothing.   As soon as I stopped doing a bunch of stuff, I realized how worn out I was feeling.                 Many people live this way.   They fill every moment with activity and run from one event or task to the next.     Oddly, that pace can be maintained as long as you do not slow down.   If you keep piling things on your “to do” list, then you never really realize how tired you are becoming.                ...

 Three pieces of advice to help you serve well and enjoy it more.  

 Progress (in any area of life) begins when we stop working against ourselves.  

 Satan may not be able to take you down in one big mess. That is good! However, he has an even more dangerous weapon to use again us.  

                  I talk to a lot of people each week and I have noticed a trend: Bad news seems to be ten times more common than good news.                   Now, if you think about it, that is not true.   In fact, most people are blessed beyond measure.   However, we tend to notice and talk about the aspects of our lives that we dislike rather than focusing on what is good and right. We need to change this pattern.                   Too often, we worry, fret, and wring our hands about what might go wrong, and then when it all works out, we barely notice.   Instead, we often ignore the good outcome and move on to worrying about the next thing on our list.   That is a hard way to live.       ...

 A problem that God's people have had for a long time. We must see it so we can fix it.  

 In a time when people seemed to be upset and offended by everything, you can make a difference by making one small choice.  

 Our goal should be to make guided decisions, not just good ones.  

 These days, it is not popular to talk about fearing God. We prefer to talk about other aspects of our relationship with him. However, when we lose this concept we also lose something vitally important!
