What if you saw things differently?

What if you saw it differently?​
How easy it is to be frustrated, annoyed, and stymied on our path.
And yet - what might happen if you saw those happenings, inconveniences...
...as messages from God?
What if you saw a lesson?  Or, a possible new direction?
What if you saw a reminder to trust, to have faith?  
You can, you know.
It has been said that while some things are completely out of your control,
...the vast direction of your life is due to your own perspectives.
Which determines your responses.

The ever-so-much-better result in your life.

What is the ever-so-much-better result in your life?
Claude and I have been talking about
How we make plans and set goals...
and then take steps toward those goals,
And sometimes it seems God’s answer is “No.”
Then, amazingly, in time to come,
As life goes on and we are doing things differently
From the original plan,
God says, “Yes”. 
And it’s ever-so-much better than our original goal. 

Like a house we tried to buy some years back,
No matter what we tried, and BOY! Did we try!.
So, we found another house, which
Now, we know, is an ever-so-much-better house.

Trust.
Keep moving toward.
Keep trusting.
And see what happens.

Love,

You just never know...

You just never know…

You just never know something that happens in your life 
Changes your life’s direction forever.

Like a person you chat with at the store,
Or on the elevator, on the plane.

Like the car-trouble you have at the most inopportune time,
And somehow, the way it works out.

A health discussion on social media,
(Like the thousands of people diagnosed with cancer
-even “Stage 4”,
Who followed an unexpected medication 
And are now NO EVIDENCE OF DISEASE. 
DM me if you want more on that!)

You Just never know..
Keep the faith.
Keep an open mind. 
And know there are SO many possibilities!

Love,

Ever Wonder Why We Take Things For Granted?

In our humanness, we stop being amazed at the goodness, the joy, the miracles,
​That we forget to feel that rush of gratitude.
Look for it.  
Notice the simplest things that are good today.
Enjoy the day.
Love,
