“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” JesusAnger, anxiety, depressions all rob the joy out of our lives; why waste a single moment on them? One of the greatest weapons to conquer these inner adversaries is simply our desire to be happy. I don’t like being unhappy, I am never happy when I surrender to any of these things so why give in to them? Next time anger or any thief of happiness approaches, learn to preach to your heart and say aloud, “I have been down this road before and there is no joy on it. I am never turning down this road again.” As Barney Fife would say, “Nip it, nip it in the bud.” Conversations Within” ts 2/5/2013 (Jax, FL)
Grace modeste- an "unassuming grace." Any discussion of a spiritual nature should reflect this mutual kindness. The following are simply my devotional reflections each morning. I cast them like "bread upon the waters," hoping that all who find them will find something of value to nurture their own inner life.
