Make a Difference Monday

Welcome to Make a Difference Monday. I try to highlight positivity, giving back to the community, and making the world a better place. Sometimes, I don't have a story but rather a short passage to encourage you. I have found that when I need a boost, other people do too. Making a difference does not have to be big.

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares The Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11 NIV.

I hope you are encouraged and please share with others. I am linking up today with Julie at This Gal Cooks for Marvelous Mondays. Please stay tuned for Top Pic Tuesday.

Peaceful

I have a confession to make. I am rarely satisfied with where I am in life. I am always looking to move forward and get somewhere else. I never take the time to enjoy where I am in the moment. To get places, there is a process. This journey called life is not to be taken for granted. God is patiently teaching me to relish the process and find contentment. I think I'm ready to move to the next job or the next city but God has different plans and timing than I do. It's a daily struggle for me and I am constantly reminding myself that God has great plans for me. Jeremiah 29:11 says, " For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." NIV My struggle is not over. At times I feel that it's difficult to rein my mind onto positive thoughts. Thankfully God does not give up on me. Amen. END
