Entry for February 18, 2007

Went to 3 services a church today – that would be a record for me. But Joyce Meyer was the speaker and I just couldn’t miss out on that.

Her message was different at each service, but yet connected to the same topic: Love

Challenged us as christians to love more and preach less esp to our kids and to those who are in need. Living by example and loving people will bring people to God far more than “in your face” preaching.

So tomorrow when you wake up think to yourself – “how can I be a blessing today?” not what can I do for myself. Your life will be blessed many times over for blessing others.

Case in point – someone I work with I believe has this attitude – she sets the bar very high for us when it comes to “being a blessing”. Each holiday or sometimes when I truly need a blessing – she is always there. Leaves little gifts at my locker. Can I tell you – she always knows when I really need something – it’s the gesture really – not the gift. I could be having the worst day and then – there will be this little “blessing” gift she leaves me at the end of the day that just makes me forget about my troubles – even for a short time.

She doesn’t do it for me, she does it for some many people we work with. I can’t imagine who else she does it for in her community or family. What an example to set for the rest of us.

Thanks Shelly!

God Bless You!

God Bless Everyone!

until next time – go out and give somebody in need some love,

  1. Are you telling me that Joyce Meyer was at ResLife and I missed it?! Oh, my goodness! I just spent a few minutes on her website, and I’m enjoying the resources at http://joycemeyer.org/OurMinistries/EverydayAnswers/
    I think you’ll like the website. Well, how are you doing today? I haven’t been too active on 360 since I found a new place called CafeMom, but I did make a new post tonight.
