{quotes}
The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction not a destination. Carl Rogers
Live the Word.
God’s plan will always be greater than all your disappointments.
Believe in what you pray for.
You are 50% responsible for the answer to your prayer. May Rowland
Reach beyond your grasp. That’s when God helps you stretch to grab it.
{blessings}
Okay to Cry
It’s okay to cry for the people you’ve loved and lost. Their love made you who you are today. Shed a few more tears with God as Your comforter. When done, thank God for preparing you for new love, the next love, the love you are about to receive. May God continue to bless you with one precious love after another.
Lower Your Voice
Lower your voice. That’s not just the words of your fourth grade teacher. It’s good advice. Let your words be humble and filled with gratitude for the blessings you are about to receive.
Greatest Purpose
If you have a pulse you have a purpose. Pray to know yours. Live with urgency. Rest in calm. Reap the benefits. May you be blessed to fulfill your greatest purpose.
Ageless
If you’re looking to reverse the aging process, look no further than your own soul where God resides. God is ageless and therefore so are you. May God bless you with good health, a fresh outlook, and youthful spirit.
Pleasing Prayer
Embrace challenge with faith, not frustration. It’s easy to get stuck in complaining mode. But prayers, not complaints, are what God wants to hear. May you be blessed with pleasing prayer that soothes your soul and lets God know you are a person of good faith.

Portion Control
God, help me with portion control. Life is offering a buffet heaped to overflowing with a tempting variety of spiritual nourishment sweet and sour. Give me the willpower to refrain from indulgence and to make wise choices. Blessed are You, my Provider.
Good in Store
Dear God, I am thankful and I know nothing can stand in the way of all the good You have in store for me. As I pray, I can feel goodness growing in my heart and joyful anticipation for what is to come. Praise to You, for bringing good to my life. Amen
This is the Start
Another day of my Godly life begins. I accept the charge. I am eager to see what God has in store for me. I stand ready to do the work required. I will be joyful, I will be patient, I will be nice to everyone I meet. This is the start of my glorious future.
Reflections with Gratitude
Dear God, I want to take this time in prayer not to ask for anything, but to simply say thank you. I reflect with gratitude on all that I have been given and all I am about to receive. Amen
Thanking God in Despair
When I’m tired and my heart is breaking. At that moment when my head is pounding and my spirit is deflated. For the times when my tears come without warning. That’s when I will gather up every remaining fiber of determination, pull from within, stand up tall and give thanks with the last traces of strength I didn’t know I still had. Thank God!
