I’m learning how to celebrate the little things in life.

I’m learning how to pause and enjoy the moment of an accomplishment.

The accomplishment I’m celebrating today is, drum roll please… having posted 200 times on this blog site! Woo Hoo!

Thank you for being here. I’m thankful for all your comments, votes, prayers, and suggestions over the past two years. I hope you have enjoyed reading my thoughts, gotten encouraged, gleaned much from the Word of God, and seen how life can be positively transformed when you’re focused on Jesus.

Over the next 200+ posts, I pray that you’ll continue to be inspired to live life with a hope-filled focus. Tell a friend to join you here so you can share encouragement with one another.

How do you take time to celebrate the small successes of life?

Day 7 of 7 Days of Joy

Life gives you many opportunities to choose between blessing and cursing, life and death, good and bad, hope and despair (Deuteronomy 30:19).

Be intentional. Every morning start your day choosing to have an attitude of joy.

Today, you’ll have lots of choices to make throughout the day. Make a decision right now to choose JOY as often as you can.

Sometimes we just need a simple reminder to find JOY in life.

Here’s the first of seven simple reminders I’d like to give to you.

Grace & Peace,

Focus Friday

Focus on the following scripture throughout the day. It’s God’s Word and it’s what He desires us to believe. Believe it is true for you because God’s Word is Truth. Speak this Word to yourself throughout the day. Personalize it by putting your name in it!

“Joy comes to a man with the reply of his mouth. How good is a word at the right time!” ~ Proverbs 15:23
