We Often Suffer, But Are Never Crushed
One of the many things I've learned is I'm stronger than I ever give myself credit for. We must accept the fact that our current adversity may slow us down but it'll never stop us. As Martin Luther King, Jr. said, "If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.”

You’re a Candle in the Dark
People are literally dying of loneliness, and we have the (super)power of love and laughter on our side. Even a quick visit, note or phone call, just to let someone know you’re thinking about them, can make a colossal difference. There is a great chance you’ll be a flicker of light in an otherwise bleak day. After all, a candle doesn’t seem to give off much light until you carry it into the pitch of black, right?

Don’t Let Pain Turn Your Heart to Stone
God's intention is not for agony to transform our heart to stone. Life is a beautiful thing, just waiting to be discovered. We need to stop playing the victim, and try and serve others, instead of demanding to be served, and heard. If you've let your struggles make you so self-absorbed you have no time to comfort others, you're long overdue for a change.

“Happiness” is a Thousand Little Choices a Day
We can CHOOSE to be happy; we don't have to let people or circumstances choose our moods for us. Don’t cling to your gloom and despair like a tattered life raft; instead, swim for the shore, spread out the Spiderman beach towel, grab your sunscreen and enjoy the sunshine.

You Are Not Your Past
So many of us trudge ahead, into tomorrow, blanketed by the dark clouds of yesterday, but I’d like to encourage you NOT to let your past define you. You are not that person, and it’s essential to your emotional health to look forward. God knows you’re not perfect, yet He still has a calling on your life. He has an adventure waiting for you. He wants to equip you as a warrior in the battle for the soul of mankind (which is raging as we speak). It’s time you tell the shadow in the rearview mirror to take a hike.

A Storybook Romance (aka “My Little Love Story”)
There’s so much anger, hatred and negativity in the world, I just thought I’d share my little love story with you.
