Thought for the Day......

"Life is change. Growth is optional. Choose wisely" (Karen Kaiser Clark)


Think about that one. We can all get older and change, but do we grow? Grow in our walk with God, in our marriages,in our friendships, in our roll as mothers, teachers, and mentors. Sometimes that is a hard one to answer.

We all make mistakes and we all change ,sometimes we commit to change our attitudes and not care about certain things so that the next time it happens we won't get hurt. Well, maybe the Lord wants us to learn something not change. Maybe he wants us to learn patience and kindness. To look at those situations with a loving heart not a hard heart..

To grow from those changes and mistakes takes true courage because sometimes what the Lord is telling us to grow from isn't always easy and pretty or where you want to go at the time. So lets make the commitment together to GROW this year.

Whether it be in your marriage,or grow in your relationship with your children or even the commitment to make your home more organized and less cluttered. Lets Grow, I mean truly yearn for what the Lord is trying to teach us. Love to you all.

Have a great weekend
