Cling to what is good! Romans 12:9 This week, I hope you cling to what is good. Take time today to write down what's good in your life. What are you thankful for? Now write down the things in your life that you would like to be different? The not so good things... can you let these things go? What is your life is weighing you down and keeping you from living your fullest life? Sometimes we hold on to things that are not good for us. Deep down we know that they are not good but it's hard to give them up. It takes bravery and strength to give up the bad things and to cling to the good. God will give you everything you need to make wise decisions to let go of the things in your life that are not healthy or holy. The Prayer: Lord, help me cling to what is good and to let go of that which is not healthy or holy. I need your strength and courage to take these next steps and I am counting on you to see me through this. I trust in you Lord. I trust in you. In Jesus name, Amen...

What are you favorite Sunday traditions?  I have to be at work at 7:30am most Sundays and I always look forward to a yummy lunch followed by an epic nap. The nap is very important and has been my tradition since I was a teenager attending my church in Pasadena, Texas.  I also prepare for the week ahead on Sunday evenings. I plan out my schedule, prepare meals for the week and try to get my head on straight for what lies ahead.  What are your Sunday traditions? How do you plan for the week ahead and take care of yourself?  The challenge: Pick out a Bible verse for this week. Write it down somewhere or take a picture of it. Memorize it and say it every day. You will be amazed at how God speaks to you and how you see him at work in your life. What will your verse be this week?  This is my verse for the week and I am happy to share it with you... She is clothed in strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future. Proverbs 31:25...

I don't know about you but Mondays can be tough. Let's give this week over to God, trusting that He is preparing the way and walking with us. We just need to take His hand. The prayer: Lord, I give you this week and all that happens in it...help me to trust in you to provide for my needs and to walk with me through the tough days. I pray that I will be able to see how you are at work in my life and in the lives of those around me. Help me to be full of your love and grace so that I may share it with others. Thank you Lord for all that you are to me. In Jesus Name, Amen
