Celebration time on the FROG Blog! Woman’s World will publish another of my stories in their Acts of Kindness section. The story supports my mission to spread sunshine, one smile at a time. It’ll be in the November 20th issue of Woman’s World and goes on sale November 9th. If you have a story idea…
…do not worry about your life, what you will eat, or about your body, or what you will wear (Luke 12:22). Do not worry. What hasn’t been said about worry and anxiety? Maybe, but if I committed to this one biblical instruction, “do not worry,” I’d have a lifetime of job security. Luke 12:22 lists…
What is this? Where did it come from? When have you had a situation when you asked, “what is that” and “where did it come from?” Something happens. Something good. Something different or unexpected (according to us). We face a universal quest to adjust to the now and the not yet. What do you need…
One task. One call. One bite. One screen. Commitment is more powerful than motivation. Much of our world rewards multi-tasking and production. We applaud this almost-ravenous sense of urgency. The power to mass produce! Do more! Work more hours! Read more! Make more money! Volunteer more! What is urgent? How do we answer this auditory…
A bow to courage for this week’s FROG Blog. A friend introduced me to the importance of daily affirmations. I realize I’ve practiced affirmations in the form of my life manifestation. This friend’s affirmations include: “I am available for outrageously wonderful things to come into my life now and always.” “I am a magnet for…
I didn’t sign up for this! Why am I the one he always asks to….? I’m not qualified to do that! How does she expect me to finish this…? Why? Why not? You’ve heard the whys. You’ve asked the whys. Sometimes the wisest response is “Why not?” Think of a time when someone asked you…
I take a break from my standard 300–500-word FROG Blog to share what may develop into something. I’m unsure what that something may, or may not, be yet (YET…a shout out to my word of the year). I’ve recently begun to explore the art of poetry, thanks to connections with brilliant poets. Discrepancy is inspired…
Go to the dump. Do not pass go. What do you associate with a trip to the dump? What does your local garbage or recycling center look like? When has a preacher delivered a message to you on top of a trash can? A landfill is hardly a podium I’d considered Holy Ground! In Jeremiah…
That’ll separate the men from the boys. I hear this phrase when someone challenges another to a task. Men are generally stronger, hopefully wiser, more courageous, and sturdier than boys, simply because of life’s growth cycle. I determine a person’s strength by their ability to make sound decisions, to remain peaceful and resilient, especially during…
Pain can produce potential. It’s uncomfortable to rehash harmful memories, but let’s consider your most recent pain. Asking you to expose hurt may be a harsh start for a blog that’s meant to encourage, but let’s reveal our pain as a way to heal our pain. Maybe you’ve been injured or had a health setback….
