Today is your BEST day...

I wanted to write a short bit out of a favorite little daily devotional that really got me excited. It's call Today is Your Best Day (Devotional Journal). It's a simple short one a day kind of book. It's not a make you feel good message but really does just point you to the truth of who we are in Christ and who Christ IS for us and is a reminder of WHY today is ALWAYS your best day! I can't even tell you how much this book has encouraged me and I hope you get a copy for yourself!

This is a quick bit at the end of the chapter from

Today is your best day Because of the Cross

Jesus' Death on the cross has also made is possible for this day to be your best day. He took your sins upon Himself so that you could be forgiven; so that you could receive eternal life; so that you could be justified; so that you could have peace with God; so that you could be His bride' so that you could know Him, love Him, and serve Him; so that you could carry the hope of heaven in your heart today.

These are just a few flowers I found in my yard. :) And I liked this one as a abstract kind of happy feel. lol. Only the edge of a single petal is in focus.

Signing off for today. God bless your socks off,

Capture. Create. Discover.

Something Amazing!

Signs and humility

There is something totally humbling about seeing a sign and obeying it. It doesn't have to be a sign, it could be something simple like a sheet of music, a recipe, a simple system at work that your employer would have you to follow exactly. Yet what is it in us that drive us to WANT to do just the opposite of the quiet prompting of that small sign?

Signs can offer advice.

Signs can warn us of danger.

Signs give us direction.

Signs are easily made fun of... and yet they are there for a reason.

And this picture shows my point better than all of the others. As I was getting ready to write this post I was trying to remember all the pictures of signs I've taken over the years and this one came to mind right away. I'm amazed at how I'm obviously even pushing hard with my finger.

I want to share something with you all that really has blessed me as I'm going through some things in my life that I read from a book that my best and dearest friend gave me sometime ago.

"Today, as your heart seeks the lowly place, humility will move your toward everything that is good and away from everything that is evil. Humility is the pathway of every servant's journey. Humility is the road map that guides you to God's unconditional love, and it is the sign that points you to the vast treasure of His abundant grace.

Humility allows you to see your weakness and embrace God's strength; it allows you to see your insufficiency and embrace His righteousness; it allows you to see your lack and embrace His supply.

Humility is the place of freedom where your spirit soars, where your love is perfected, and where God's richest blessings abound. Rivers never run from the valley to the mountaintop, but they always seek the lowest place, the place of least resistance. Today, as your heart is yielded to the Lord in humility, the river of the Holy Spirit will flood in and fill you to overflowing with peace, and flow out through you to bless the lives of others."

~Today is Your Best Day. Page 52.

I Peter 5:5

Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”
