Living a life of victory isn’t always easy, but it can be simple. We’ve explored two quick & dirty tips that help clean up our thought life. Why a clean thought life you ask? Well…
So now that we’ve filtered our thoughts and learned to flip our thoughts, let’s bring some joy to your life by having fun with your thoughts.
Read MoreSo last week we talked about Quick & Dirty Tips To A Clean Thought Life.
We discovered if we can think right, we can live a victorious life. Or, we could say it this way–
Do you feel like life has more stresses than victories? Do you ever feel mentally overwhelmed and don’t know what to do about it? Do you ever feel sad or depressed and you’re not sure how to dig your way out?
No area of our lives is untouched by our thoughts.
Maybe you’re so stressed it feels like you’re insides are on a merry-go-round. I’m not talking about the kind with prancing horses. I’m talking about that one where the neighbor kid spun you so fast the G-force pinned you to the floorboard and you knew you were going to spin off into space never to be seen again.
I remember a time when our finances were going to pieces. I was stressed out during this time more than any other time I can remember.

Well, you're right! There is so much more than what most of us are currently experiencing.
Today, I'm going to share with you two secrets that will change that.
Read More“Jesus loves me this I know, for the Bible tells me so…” Do you ladies remember that song? Maybe your kids sing it now. I remember learning sign language to that song as a kid.
It sounds so simple, “Jesus loves me this I know.”
I know for many of us moms, we have this something in the back of our mind that tells us we’re not enough. For many of us, this drives us to constant work. Work to show that we are super mom, work to show we can do it all. Work because we feel like no one else can do it as good as we can.
But, it only leaves us unfulfilled, tired and full of guilt and condemnation. Why do we do this to ourselves?
Our Heavenly Father desires us to rest. Rest in Him. Rest in His love for us. Rest in the fact that we are enough.
Well, if that’s the case, how do we go about walking out this joy filled life – this walk of faith in God’s promises? How do we change our marriages, relationships, or feelings of hopelessness? How do we tell Murphy's Law to take a hike? How do you walk by faith?

Did you know complaining is an activity just as listening to the radio or turning on the TV is an activity?
Read MoreA marriage can bring out the worst in us sometimes. But, that’s not a bad thing. It gives us a chance, if we choose, to get it out of our lives. If we just let it stay buried, we can’t get rid of that junk inside.
Read MoreThen you had one of those moments when you just had to laugh at yourself (or may slug the person who startled you).
It was a dark and stormy October night…
Read MoreI lay in stunned silence. It was just a routine check up. But, the results were anything but routine. My little “peanut”, my 9 week old baby lay still on the monitor. There was no heartbeat, no movement. He was gone.
Read MoreYou know the kind I’m talking about. You wake up in the morning, roll over to face your prince charming and discover he’s turned into a frog…or maybe just his breath has. Next you stumble into the kitchen for that caffeinated elixir of life only to step on a bed of nails, aka your son’s legos...How do you turn a bad day into a great day?
Read MoreGood? Great? Fine? Terrible with a capital T? If there was something you could do that would change that rating, would you want to know what it is? Would you like to know a secret to go from Terrible to Terrific? From Fine to Fantastic?
Read MoreWhat do you say to yourself when you're not feeling up to a certain task or your project didn’t go as planned? How about when you burned dinner for your guests or shrunk your favorite sweater? Are you encouraging to yourself?
