Overload

Most Americans are experiencing overload. There is literally no space or time left in our lives.

We need extra space and time to be refreshed, renewed and restored to live life to the fullest.

Many times we experience discouragements, disappointments and depression because we have no extra space and time to recover from every day stress.

Why not try doing something that you enjoy every day? Prioritize time to recharge your batteries every day. Fifteen minutes, a half hour or an hour of doing something that you enjoy will give you strength to fight the battles in life.

I want to encourage you to receive proper rest and recreation.

You are precious and priceless and you need to treat yourself well!

My Story and Your Story

Every one has a story.

Your life is your story.

We all have experienced disappointments and discouragements as well as encouraging times.

How we deal with our pain is extremely important. We can transform pain into paralysis or peace.

Do you turn stumbling blocks into stepping stones?

Emotional and physical pain indicate something is wrong. We need to nestle, not wrestle!

I had a complete breakdown about 23 years ago. I became like a vegetable. I couldn't really do anything. I felt like I was going to die for about a year.

That was the best thing that ever happened to me. My life came crashing down into a pile of rubble. Only our Creator could put me back together. He used my wife and my mentor as instruments in His hands. His healing love and power began restoring my life.

He made me a new person and now I have a story of hope and encouragement!

Will you let Him heal your disappointment and discouragement and make you a whole new person?

He loves you very deeply. He accepts you completely. He values you very highly.
