 Not Just Thursday

Thanksgiving at your house may look a little different this year....Or rather, should I say....this Thursday at your house may look a little different this year.

What's the difference?

Thanksgiving is not just a Thursday in November. 

God calls us to be thankful all the time!

Our families and friends need us to give thanks to them often!

So, whatever your "Thursday" looks like this year, don't skip over giving thanks on Tuesday!  And Wednesday!  And every day!  :)

Psalm 100

"Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth. Worship the Lord with gladness; come before Him with joyful songs.

Know that the Lord is God.  It is He who made us, and we are His; we are His people, the sheep of His pasture.

Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give thanks to Him and praise His name.

For the Lord is good and His love endures forever; His faithfulness continues through all generations."

 A Sing-a-Long

What song are you singing today?

I have 3 songs that are on a loop in my brain and heart:

In Christ Alone

It is Well with My Soul

This is the Song that Never Ends....!!  :)

Which songs are most powerful to you today?

"You are my hiding place; You will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance."  Psalm 32:7

Next!

Who is 29?!?  I AM!  :)

I LOVE when I pull the little ticket at the deli and it says the number 29!  Who wants to yell out, "I'm 72!??"  LOL!

Back on the playground, in line at the grocery store, or waiting at the DMV, we can't wait to be next!

As we have traveled together through almost 10 years of Trey Tuesdays, God is leading me to what is next.  I'm not 100% sure yet, but I know He is moving my ministry.  December 28, 2010 was our first prayer for Trey and his family and I thank God for you being on our journey!  My plan is to complete our 10 years together and then begin a new chapter in writing.

Until then, take a deep breath, don't worry about tomorrow, and let's accept God's best for us today!

"God again set a certain day, calling it "Today."  Hebrews 4:7

 The Perfect Response

There are many hot topics these days.  Potential arguments and division lurk around every corner.  Don't get your blood pressure up!  Don't lose sleep! 

Think about these things:

"Whatever is true,

whatever is noble,
whatever is right,
whatever is pure,
whatever is lovely,
whatever is admirable

--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--
think about such things."  Philippians 4:8

Mirror Mirror

Those who knew Trey loved him.  How could you not adore our charming and silly Young Warrior?!  Everyone had nice words - fun words - encouraging words - lots of prayers and intentional acts of kindness - for him!

What if we treated ourselves with as much kindness and grace as we treated our special boy?

How often do we realize that God sees each one of us - you, your in-laws, your boss, your nemesis, your rival - with MORE love than we shower on the cute and pleasant people in life?

Next time you look in a mirror, see yourself through God's eyes.  Greet His child with delight!

"The LORD your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in His love He will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing."  Zephaniah 3:17

Social Media

How's it working for you lately?

Maybe we never should have put those 2 words together!

It almost sounds like an oxymoron:

social:  companionship

media:  mass communication

I understand the mass communication part, but how can social media truly fill our need for companionship?

Reach out this week - set aside your device - connect socially.

Find companionship in person with one of your online friends.

"When we get together, I want to encourage you in your faith, but I also want to be encouraged by yours."  Romans 1:12

Trey's Girlfriends

One of Trey's best girlfriends is sad and struggling.

Another girlfriend just had serious surgery.

I'm not sure Trey ever met the young lady who just had surgery, but Trey considered every girl his girlfriend! <3

Do you love that large?  Do you love that unconditionally?
Do you believe the best in everyone?  Do you squeal and jump for joy when you see people?  (OK - maybe that last one is a stretch for most of us!) :)

Trey wasn't perfect, but he sure knew how to make someone feel good!

Will you please pray for Trey's 2 girlfriends tonight?
For health and speedy recoveries

For hope in a brighter tomorrow

For God's peace that passes understanding

"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."  I Corinthians 13:13
