Just me trying to be honest with God.

“Attitudes are contagious. Make yours worth catching.” Toby Mac

Some people are so full of life, they make the people around them more alive. Celebrate your life! "Esse quam videri. To be, rather than to seem.

“...set an example in speech, conduct, love, faith, and purity.” 1Tim.4. “Conversations Within” ts 3/3/26



“Be such a beautiful soul that others crave your vibe.” Meme

The presence of Christ in me is my greatest treasure. He is life, health and peace, the reason food tastes better, and colors are richer. He is the music of my dance, my life’s song. He leads me beside still waters in a world ravished by politics and protest.

“showing all good faith, so that in everything they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior.” Titus 2.10 “Conversations Within” ts 3/3/26



“We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.” Martin Luther King, Jr.

I have wasted energy every time I did not gracefully accept disappointments outside my control. I have never wasted energy by trusting that God will work everything out for my good. Hope is a powerful thing, especially when expressed by quietly accepting what God has put on our plate.

“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” Rom.15.13 “Conversations Within” ts 3/1/26



“You try too hard. Winners forget they're in a race. They just love to run.” Joe Pesci

My relationship with God is never meant to be hard, or burdensome. When my heart is inclined toward loving Him, it will naturally flow in all goodness like water running downhill. Water does not try to run downhill, it simply does. We learn to love loving, when we simply enjoy its rewards.

“This is love for God: to keep his commands. And his commands are not burdensome.” 1Jo.5.3 “Conversations Within” ts 3/1/26



When in doubt, always take a step in the direction of love.

There is one decision that will never lead us wrong, and that is a decision to love. This does not mean that we do not need wisdom to channel our love, and spread its energy towards goodness. Love wisely by joining your actions to the One who knows the best way to express it.

“God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God lives in them.” 1John 4.15 “Conversations Within” ts 2/28/26
