What We Create for Others

We all, without exception, awake with a daily truth — what kind of experience will I help create today for others around me? Will I affirm life-giving hope or something less? Will I look for the wonder around me and point it out to others? Will I speak of others with respect for their journey, especially when different from mine?

As a sampling of “Will I’s”, they all point to one simple idea — I have life for others in my hands. For it to touch others, though, it must be given away.

I suspect you know what I mean. You yourself have received life from others. Its effect upon your life was more than just what you could measure…it likely made a difference you couldn’t get to on your own. That’s the point. We need one another, and this is one of the gifts we have to offer.

Knowing and having others in our lives is a gift. May we see one another more and more in this manner and share the life in our hands.


Be Courageous!

You are unlike anyone else that will ever grace this planet. Unique and gifted, the journey of your life is designed to draw out the DNA gifts and strengths that make you a force in this time. Your life, while valuable in itself, also is meant to bring impact, hope and life to those you encounter and walk this journey. Every step you take is one of courage, trusting the overwhelming truth that your life is worth it. Set your heart for what’s ahead…press forward and be courageous!


Needing Encouragement?

Like fresh water, encouragement is a daily drink for our souls that brings life to our hearts through vision and hope. Unfortunately for too many of us, we can go days without receiving it from those around us regardless of their role in our life. However each of us can change that. Encouragement can come in the spoken or written word and actions that affirm one’s journey, gifts or character. What it takes is a vision to look around and see others beyond yourself. But, to do so takes intent and purpose. Don’t know where to start? I would love to help. Let’s connect and explore it together. Who knows, you just might get encouraged along the way!
