Reset button...Now What? Here's some ideas


If the world had a reset button, it could be named COVID-19.

Modern living has become very efficient. We are blessed with so many conveniences.

But then COVID-19 comes and removes all sports, vacations, schools, dining out, movies, shopping, work (for some), visiting friends and family, and even going to the dentist, what do we have left?

We have our families and lots of time.

Hasn't there been times when this is what you wanted? A chance at doing nothing for a while?

In reality, we are not made for stagnation. We are made for progression.

Here's a few interesting questions to ask yourself to help you not be stagnant during this time:

With so much being taken away, what is one thing I've thought of doing someday that I could try now? (Don't say I don't know. Make your mind find an answer. Or ask yourself, what if I did know?)

What is one really great thing I can be doing with my time right now?

What could even be better than that?

Answer these questions, then take action.

Let's see what resets we can make in our lives and in our world together!

Stay safe and healthy (mentally and physically) my friends!

He walked through Samaria. He blessed the Gentile woman who begged for His help. He dined with those who were haughty and humble. He saw each one as worthy of His love. I am trying to be like Jesus Christ. I know that I am a white woman living in a mostly white community. I know that I may have prejudices, and I'm trying to discover where I may need to change. I sincerely want to love as Jesus does. I see a need for change in our world. I listened to two con

3 Keys to Feel Peace Now!

We all probably feel a little uneasy right now. There is so much unknown. Our minds spin out on the unknown.  But how can we stop our endless worry? First take a quick inventory of what is created within you when you are spinning in worry. There's probably some inner tension, impatience with one another, anxiousness, lots of mindless buffering...just to name a few. But what if you don't want this to be your life for the next who-knows-how-long? Here's a few tips to help you feel more peace: 1. Write down all your worried thoughts. Writing them down stops them on the paper. Get them all out. Read them and try to see them as options of things to think about but definitely not necessary . Sometimes it feels necessary to think them so we can avoid pain in the future. But really worrying incessantly is just bringing all that possible future pain into today. It isn't useful or fun. 2. Choose to do something within your control that helps someone
