Sunday's Coming

Good Morning,

We wish we could thank each of you in person for the love, prayers, support, and for just being there for us. There is no way we could do that, so let me say – THANK YOU and God bless each of you for your kindness. Words could never express the appreciation we have for you all. You are family and we thank God for each of you that are a part of our lives.

In my reading today from The Sower, I want to share this:

Looking Good!
What is in our hearts is there because we allow it to come in and find a home. And whatever is in our hearts will profoundly affect our lives and control our destiny. It is there because we want it there and has a direct impact on our lives.

*Within three verses Solomon describes three different kinds of hearts and the effect they have on our lives. “A happy heart” makes a “cheerful face.” No matter what is going on in the life of a person who has a “happy heart” we see a “cheerful face” that automatically brings a ray of sunshine into our lives. Their “inside” may be filled with clouds and rain, sickness and suffering, but their hope in God’s goodness and grace will not suppress the happiness He brings into their lives.

*People with “discerning hearts” are known for the knowledge they possess. They are driven by a desire to know and to share what they understand because they realize that knowledge is a gift from God to help others. It is not to be hoarded in our heads but to be given away as freely as it was received.

*A “cheerful heart” is found in one who chooses to take control of life rather than to have life control them. It’s taking every gift God gives us and using it as a reason to have a celebration with Him as the “guest” of honor. A “cheerful heart” flows from an attitude of joy and peace because God is “in here” and He will never leave me nor forsake me. His being “in here” is a cause for a joy that can be seen “out there” and brings His blessings to others.

Prayer: Father, do something special within each of us that will bring joy to our hearts and smiles to others! In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Once you lick the frosting off a cupcake it becomes a muffin and muffins are healthy; You’re welcome.

Scripture for Today: 

Proverbs 15:13A happy heart makes the face cheerful,

Have a great day, love you, pass it on!
