A Moment of Reflection
Lord, you have probed me, you know me:
you know when I sit and stand;
you know when I sit and stand;
you understand my thoughts from afar.
My travels and my rest you mark;
with all my ways you are familiar.
with all my ways you are familiar.
Psalm 139: 1-3
A Moment of Reflection
"But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind
and straining toward what is ahead,
I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which
God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus"
Philippians 3:13-14 (NIV)
"Show me your ways, O LORD, teach me your paths;
guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior,
and my hope is in you all day long. Remember, O LORD,
your great mercy and love, for they are from of old.
Remember not the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways;
according to your love remember me, for you are good,
O LORD."
-Psalm 25:4-7
Serenity Prayer Pendant
I have pulled out all of my remaining supplies from my craft closet
and I have been working on a few items for the Inspirations by D shop.
Here is just one sample of what's coming next week.
I will have more pendants with the same Serenity Prayer,
but in other sizes, shapes and chains.
This is an elegant reminder of our daily struggle
to remain in the Grace of the Lord.

Have a Happy Weekend!
A Moment of Reflection
It's between You and God
People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered.
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies.
Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you.
Be honest and frank anyway.
What you spend years building, someone may destroy overnight.
Build anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, others may be jealous.
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough.
Give the world the best you have anyway.
Why?
Because in the final analysis, all of this is between you and God….
It was never between you and them anyway.

My Soul finds rest in God alone;
my salvation comes from him.
He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress,
I will never be shaken.
Psalm 62: 1-2

Serenity Prayer Key Chain

I love this piece! It is a combination of old and new. The glass containing the prayer is new made by me and the chain itself is vintage, old meets new. What a great way to remind us of the serenity prayer. Would you like one, shop here and get more information.
I Said a Prayer For you Today...
I said a prayer for you today
And know that God must have heard.
I felt the answer in my heart
Although he spoke no word!
I didn't ask for wealth or fame
(knew you wouldn't mind).
I asked him to send treasures
Of a far more lasting kind!
I asked that he be near you
At the start of each new day;
To grant you health and blessings
And friends to share your way!
I asked for happiness for you
In all things great and small.
But it was for his loving care
I prayed the most of all!
Moment of Reflection
Deuteronomy 6:4
"Hear, Oh Israel! The Lord is our God, the Lord alone!"
Through Moses, God gave the people a choice whether or not they wanted to continue to live in relationship with him. They enthusiastically said yes. The one condition that God gave them was that God must be first in their lives. Nothing or no one can be given greater priority. God has given us that same condition. We are tempted everyday to let other people and things take God's place in our life. At those times we can remember Moses' instruction to the Hebrew people and join in an enthusiastic yes! to God.
What is it that most distracts you from putting God first in your life?
