{quotes}

A society grows great when old men plant trees, the shade of which they know they will never sit in. Good people do things for other people.
Greek Proverb

When you get into a tight place, and everything goes against you, till it seems as if you could not hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and the time that the tide will turn.
Harriet Beecher Stowe

There’s a heck of a distance between wise-cracking and wit. Wit has truth in it; wise-cracking is simply calisthenics with words.
Dorothy Parker

Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.
Mother Teresa

Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.
Thomas Edison

{blessings}

Stress comes from trying to do it all on your own. Peace comes from putting it all in God’s hands. May you give your all to a stress-free day, secure and content in the soothing hands of God.

May you be blessed by your pain. Give power to the pain; it will heal you and not destroy you. Find the lesson God is trying to teach you in your low points and grow closer to the light.

Be thankful that you woke up this morning and God blessed you with the opportunity to make a difference in someone’s life today.

You and God are a team creating and sustaining the momentum you need to succeed. May you be blessed with the gift of forward motion.

When you get a chance take it. If it changes your life, let it. May God bless you with many more opportunities to change your life for the better.

{prayers}

Love on Repeat
Fill my spirit with the whispers of Your love, a love that tells me on repeat, “You are enough. You don’t have to hustle for your worth. You are allowed to go slower. You are allowed to recover your soul, dear one.”
Hannah Brenchner

For Couples
The two of us. Happy together (mostly). Thank You, dear God, for making a match of our souls, helping us understand each other’s needs, and learning (over the years) to accept each other as we are.

Long Days
The days are long, but the years are short. Lord, remind me to spend my days in worthy endeavors. Steer me clear of time-wasting activities. Help me properly assess the measure of my contributions in Your Name as I go about the business of daily living.

Speak Out
Dear God, open my mouth so that I may speak up for myself and speak out for others against the rising tide of hate, anger, and obstruction.

Maker of More
Every day is a fresh start, but this first day of a new season means more. More cooler days than hot ones. More hustle by school kids and more days to be happy, healthy, and whole. You fill me to overflowing. Thank You, O Lord, Maker of More.
