Give more, never end with light and love!

For many, there are days we want to stop and not to continue to be nice in actions toward others.  We all have our limits and those days we just want to pull out our hair.  There may be days we do not want to help others that need it because of past problems with those specific people or things that have hurt us.  Why?  Who is that really hurting?

When you stop doing these good works for others, you lose part of your light. The evil in this world works into your mind and love can be misplaced.   You are a wonderful example of light in this dark world when you help others, smile, be nice, enjoy life by embracing all this world has to hold or even just by petting your dog.  It is the simple acts of kindness that make the biggest deal.  Don't do good works for pay back or because you want something done for you.   In the simple acts you do for others helps to make your heart swell with love and continue to shine your light glorifying your higher power!  Never stop being generous because you will have your just reward!

O, God, grant us the serenity to accept

What cannot be changed;

The courage to change what can be changed;

And the wisdom to know one from the other.

- Reinhold Niebuhr

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-

and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - 

not by works,  so that no one can boast.

- Ephesians 2:8-9

And my God will meet all your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus.

To our God and Father be glory for ever and ever Amen-

 -Philippians 4:19-20

The tower of . . .

Kind words can be easy to speak, but their echos are endless.

-Mother Teresa 

Begin Again 

Every day is a fresh beginning.

Every morn is the world made new,

You who are weary of sorrow and sinning, 

Here is a beautiful hope for you,-

A hope for me and a hope for you.

Every day is a fresh beginning;

Listen, my soul, to the glad refrain,

And, spite of old sorrow and older sinning,

And puzzles forecasted and possible pain,

Take heart with the day, and begin again

- Susan Coolidge
