One word, one thought can bring another joy

"The source of love is deep in us and we can help others realize a lot of happiness. One word, one action, one thought can reduce another person's suffering and bring that person joy."

 

~Thich Nhat Hanh

"Feelings come and go like clouds in a windy sky. Conscious breathing is my anchor."

Don't wait for suffering to end to be happy

"The seed of suffering in you may be strong, but don't wait until you have no more suffering before allowing yourself to be happy."

 

~Thich Nhat Hanh

Because you are alive, everything is possible.

Every day everything is a miracle!!!

"People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth. Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don't even recognize: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black, curious eyes of a child -- our own two eyes. All is a miracle."

 

~Thich Nhat Hanh

I will make you fruitful...

Make Room TODAY'S SCRIPTURE "I will look on you with favor and make you fruitful and increase your numbers, and I will keep my covenant with you. You will still be eating last year's harvest when you will have to move it out to make room for the new" (Leviticus 26:9–10, NIV) TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria God wants to bless you and multiply you. He wants to increase you above and beyond what you could ever ask, think or imagine. But sometimes, we fill our lives with so much that we simply don't have room to receive all that God wants to give us. People fill their lives with good things, noteworthy obligations and impressive accomplishments. But "good" can be the enemy of "best." We have to take the time to evaluate what we have in our hands and be willing to move some things out in order to make room for the new thing God has for us. Today, take some time to evaluate your life. Be open to what God wants to do in and through you. If your hands are full, maybe it's time to use what you have to bless other people. Don't let holding on to yesterday keep you from God's best. Instead, make room because He has abundant blessings in store for you. A PRAYER FOR TODAY Heavenly Father, today I open my hands and my heart to You. I choose to release anything spiritually, physically or emotionally that would keep me from Your best. Search my heart, God, and show me where I need to make adjustments to make room for You. In Jesus' Name. Amen. — Joel & Victoria Osteen
