"Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for. By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible."
Hebrews 11: 1 - 3

Monday Musings... selfish
"Self-absorption in all its forms kills empathy, let alone compassion. When we focus on ourselves, our world contracts as our problems and preoccupations loom large. But when we focus on others, our world expands. Our own problems drift to the periphery of the mind and so seem smaller, and we increase our capacity for connection - compassionate action."

I will bless the LORD
“Keep me safe,
O God
For I come to
you for refuge.
I said to the LORD,
“You are my Master!
Everything good
thing I have comes from you.
The godly
people in the land
are my true heroes!
I take pleasure
in them!
Troubles multiply
for those who chase after other gods.
I will not take
part in their sacrifices of blood
or even speak
the names of their gods.
LORD, you alone
are my inheritance, my cup of blessing.
You guard all
that is mine.
The land you
have given me is a pleasant land.
What a
wonderful inheritance!
I will bless
the LORD who guides me.
even at night
my heart instructs me.
I know the LORD
is always with me.
I will not be
shaken, for his is right behind me.
No wonder my
heart is glad, and I rejoice.
My body rests
in safety.
For you will
not leave my soul among the dead
or allow your holy
one to rot in the grave.
You will show
me the way of life,
granting me the
joy of your presence
and the pleasures
of living you forever.
Psalm 16 1: -11(New
Living Translation)

Thrifty Thursday
In December, I was introduced to shopping at ALDI. Kudos to my daughter. 😀Who wants to pay more when they go grocery shopping? Correct: No one! I think it is a universal goal to make our financial resources go further.
Did you know that ALDI is a discount supermarket chain that was created in 1948? Today, ALDI has more that 1,900 stores across 36 states. In our community we have two stores.
If you live on one of the 36 states that have an ALDI store. Go check them out!

One word ... perseverance
What is the one word that will inspire you for 2020? Is there one word that seems to be rolling around in your spirit? Instead of making new year's resolutions, you may have discovered that one word helps you to give mental fuel for your aspirations.
For the past week, one word continues to be in my thoughts. The one word is: perseverance.
Merriam-Webster defines persistence ... continued effort to do or achieve something despite difficulties, failure or opposition: the action or condition or instance of persevering.
One of my scriptures that provides inspiration for me it this one found in the New Testament book of Hebrews 12: 1
Here are the words from this verse:
"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles us. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. "
