I have had so many people here lately inbox me and ask me why I like going to church, what exactly is my faith, and how do I know there is a God. Sometimes there are so many questions that I really don't know how to put it into words. I just really can't explain it because it really is something you have to experience to really understand. Well, I read this poem and it says everything I would ever want to say to someone who asks me why I love and feel like I need Jesus in my life. I believe that without knowing Him I would have a life without Hope or joy.
Plain and simple... my goal is to encourage others because I believe that life is worth living, not merely existing. HOPE: the desire and search for a future good, difficult but not impossible to attain with God's help.

"Adversity doesn't kill us, but the impatience with which we bear adversity."
Today I would like to share a "thought of the day" that a coworker of mine, Dennis, puts on our hospital's intranet. I read it and once again thought "Boy how true this is." and when I read things I love I want to share them with you all. This was the thought of the day.......

Give Your Child Memories for the Holidays
You know...I have to say during this holiday season, that what you do with your children will far exceed what you could ever buy for them.

There Is ALWAYS Something To Be Thankful For!
Well tomorrow is already Thanksgiving. Time sure is flying by this year. It seems like we were just buying fireworks a few weeks ago. Personally I love this time of year and I love Thanksgiving. I enjoy the fact that there is a day set aside each year for us to reflect as a whole on all of the blessings we have to be thankful for. It’s too bad that many times we forget to count our blessings each and every single day. We do have so much to be thankful for you know. Even when we are going through our most trying times we can be thankful for something..........

When You Don't Think You Have The Time To Make A Difference
Many friends and coworkers of mine already know this story but I thought that I would share it again with those who have not. I especially like sharing this story around the holidays because to me it helps shed light on what the holidays should really be about. So with BLACK FRIDAY right around the corner I thought this is a perfect time to share.

The Long Road Home
You know this life is so much easier to get through when we all share with one another our trials and our fears and most importantly our conquests. So tonight's blog is from a friend of mine who gave me permission to share a writing that they did when they were going through a rough time in their life. Enjoy it. And thank you my friend for letting me share it. :)
