I think we should keep this going into the new year. We should also put a blessings chain on here. We can post a good thing of each day.
What do you guys think?

I remember reading a story about a frog--dont know it exactly but the jist of it was--

2 frogs fell into a large pot of cream. The sides were too high for them to jump out and it seemed like the end for them. One frog decided to just give up, stopped swimming and drowned. The other decided that maybe it was the death of him, but he would still swim around until he didnt have the strength anymore. who knew? Something might come up to save him. As he was swimming around the cream turned to butter and he jumped out!! Moral of the story: Just keep swimming!!

A new school of thought in psychology - called Happy Psychology - says the happiest people are people with strong social connections, who get to make use of what they think are their best skills, feel like they contribute in a meaningful way and have a higher sense of purpose.

When God leads you to the edge of the cliff, trust Him fully and let go, only 1 of 2 things will happen, either He'll catch you when you fall, or He'll teach you how to fly!
Amen!!

Often your tasks will be many,
And more than you think you can do.
Often the road will be rugged
And the hills insurmountable, too.
But always remember,
The hills ahead
Are never as steep as they seem,
And with Faith in your heart
Start upward
And climb 'til you reach your dream.
For nothing in life that is worthy
Is ever too hard to achieve
If you have the courage to try it,
And you have the faith to believe.
For faith is a force that is greater
Than knowledge or power or skill,
And many defeats turn to triumph
If you trust in God's wisdom and will.
For faith is a mover of mountains,
There's nothing that God cannot do,
So, start out today with faith in your heart,
And climb 'til your dream comes true!

I really like that one, Cindy! Here is my offering:

"Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is just out of grasp. But if you sit down quietly, may alight upon you."

I'm really liking these motivational quotes. Here is my contribution:

"Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we can fear less."
-- Marie Curie

Happy moments, praise God.
Difficult moments, seek God.
Quiet moments, worship God.
Painful moments, trust God.
Every moment, thank God.

Hello Everyone!
I want to try something different for October (and, maybe beyond). Each day, I would like for someone to post a quote that they find motivational.


Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light. ~Albus Dumbledore (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone screenplay)
