Morning Thoughts

My wife headed to the dentist this morning.

She sent me a text with a photo of her feet. Her socks were two different colors.

"Going to the dentist is so stressful," she quipped.

I sent back, "Just revealing the colorful you!"

See, here's what I got from this: See the good in what comes your way. 

We can't change the trip to the Emergency Room. The leaking water pipe ... the damage is already done. A rock from the mower smashes the window. We wait weeks for a repair, but we can't make the window whole again. 

Psalm 126:2 says: "We are filled with laughter, and we sang for joy. And [they] said, 'What amazing things the Lord has done for them.'"

Proverbs 15:13 tells us: "A glad heart makes a happy face; a broken heart crushes the spirit."

Find the good in whatever comes your way, and the world will see Jesus in you.

Excerpt of the Day

If something leads us astray, toss it aside and leave it on the side of the road.
