Open your eyes to God’s goodness and recognize what He is doing in your life to serve others. He loves everyone without exception turn to Him and accept His love, grace, and mercy.
I remember being a small child and watching the television cartoon movie “Winnie the Pooh”. I loved the soft pastel colors the animators used to color the movie. They were comforting colors. Colors of peace, relaxation, and calmness. The characters were so diverse, yet simple. I, of course, didn’t recognize this at an early age.… Continue reading Our Faith as a Winnie the Pooh Character
I was reflecting the other day on how many people tell me what they are grateful for. It only makes sense because my whole ministry is based on practicing gratitude. As I reflected on how many people when asked to list what they are grateful for gave me the same answers. My family, God, my… Continue reading Intentional Gratitude
You know how you are sitting, daydreaming and you have a profound thought? That happens to me all the time and it becomes the inspiration for a blog post. I was thinking the other day about how in Heaven there is no night or darkness. In Heaven, God’s light is bright and always on and… Continue reading God’s Light and My Umbrella
I feel a change happening. I’m not totally sure what this change is but I know it is very present. More and more throughout my day, I find myself seeking God almost like a urgency to find Him in a different way. Seeking God is not new to me but this seeking I am experiencing… Continue reading Seek God Endlessly
Well, the time has finally come to say goodbye to my Facebook account. I have realized that social media is what is called in the medical profession, a sucking wound. Medical Definition of sucking wound according to Merriam-Webster : a perforating wound of the chest through which air enters and leaves during respiration.

Hi Laura,
I was truly blessed by hearing about your ministry at the recent Chamber of Commerce meeting in Allen, TX. Being just a guest and hearing about the difficulties you experienced losing your loved one and the experiences you had dealing with family members, friends, and others really choked me up. By the Grace of God you learned to overcome these difficulties and develop the Grateful Gratitude box for others was heartfelt! I really appreciate your business ministry and what you are doing for others since experiencing such a tragic loss.
I have also been in a very difficult situation myself with a loved one who was diagnosed with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD). CJD is a very rare brain disease that strikes one out of one million people worldwide. There is no cure or treatment with an average life expectency of only 7 months. My wife has lived 15 months with the disease and has been in a comotose state for a whole year. Following the Chamber od Commerce meeting last Tuesday she came down with pneumonia and is expected to pass soon.
You gave me a sense of peace hearing you speak. I continue to pray for her to pass on with no further pain. She is a Christian woman and it is undescribable to even tell you about what family members can do to each other in a dire situation like this.
Please keep me in your prayers and likewise I will certainly be praying for you and your ministry.
Regards,
Joseph
