Seize God's Daily Opportunities for Service
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about some of my habits, but good and bad, and how I’ve been using the talents God has blessed me with. More specifically, am I taking about the opportunities He’s put before me and if I’m using them? Well, I hope so and I hope you are too. But understand, opportunity will come and you need to pray that you are ready to use your gifts that God has blessed you with to get up and go meet that opportunity. You see, many times we can get caught in the trap of saying, “well, I will be happy when ......” or “I’d be happy if...”. How green does the grass look on the other side of your fence? Is happiness something external that comes to you? Is personal fulfillment always right over the next hill? Do you get depressed waiting for your life to get better? Paul wrote, “Be very careful, then, how you live, not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.” Every day brings God’s gift of opportunity for service, growth, and change. Every day the Lord will bring before you what he needs you to do for him, and that humble service will bring peace to your heart that will last. Look, today is a great day and tomorrow is looking even better. Are you ready you give your life over to God and go after the opportunity He laid before you? I hope you are...Be Nice, Grace Wins

Like a Father's Arm
Today is short and sweet because God's love is simple. His love endures forever. I felt it yesterday at treatment, like a father's arm around a son. I am humbled with gratitude.

What Does It Matter?
When you find yourself judging someone else's motives for sharing the gospel, ask what Paul asked from his prison cell: what does it matter? As long as Christ is preached.
