The picture above so perfectly fits and describes my story—uphill, downhill, round and round, exciting, and scary, bright spots and dark spots. My “joyful journey” has sometimes been an amazing thrill ride and sometimes just a big downward spiral! But, the emotional, mental, and physical struggles are all part of the story, and through it all, I see clear reflections of God’s amazing grace.

You become your thoughts!

This little nugget which I came across just now, speaks volumes!

"Far-reaching are the benefits of right thinking. 

You become like you habitually think."

Love Jesus More

I just saw a quote by PCD (Phillips, Craig & Dean - Christian musicians):

"I pray for nothing more
than for you to love Jesus more."

That statement seriously caught my attention and has captivated my thoughts!  Do you pray that way?  No matter what else you are praying for, do you preface it with this prayer?  This should be my / your daily prayer--for me, for you, and for everyone I pray for!  If you pray for healing for someone who is sick, needy, dying, in desperate straits, etc., pray first that he/she will come to love Jesus more!  That must be first and foremost, no matter what else the prayer request!

Have you prayed that yet today?
