compliment. I will offer praise, kind words and encourage.
It's so easy to criticize, to be negative, to see the flaws... Why do we spend so much energy talking about what's wrong with everyone and everything? Why do we take such pleasure in tearing down someone else, in pointing out what we think are their weaknesses and defects, in taking the joy out of the situation by mocking it... Why is this the norm instead of the exception? Today you can change that! Hold back on any negative or counter productive discussions today. Compliment and encourage instead. Praise what's right, delight in the effort even if the end result isn't perfect, encourage the spirit instead of crushing the soul.
So, for today I will compliment. I will provide hope through my words. I will pray that my compliments bless those who receive my words.
About Me
- Living blessed for today...
- I am just an average girl who has had a life of ups and downs, just like many of you. I am married with two children and work full-time, part-time and volunteer. I love my family and I love God. The one thing I know to be true is that life is better when you take it one day at a time. How do I know? Because I've tried the other choices. I've tried to choke the world into submission by trying to control everything everyday. I've had high paying jobs that zapped all my time and energy leaving nothing for my family or myself. I've worried myself to sickness over the "what if's" of the future. But then I gave up. I surrendered and decide to let go and let God. Now I take each new day as a new chance to in any small way make a positive impact on the ones I love - which has extended to anyone reading this blog. I pray that by reading this blog and focusing on one day at a time - one simple task or challenge at a time - I can help you deal with the burdens of life and bring you closer to the one who is really taking care of you, God. I hope you will find motivation, inspiration, peace, or even just a smile when you visit this blog. Be blessed.
