Did you know that today is the first day of the rest of your life? Think about it. Yesterday’s gone. Tomorrow is only a hope and an illusion (at least for now.) Today is your reality. Today is your day to be all that you are—loving, special, gifted, talented and much more.
How will you spend today? How will you celebrate it?
What’s truth for you? It appears to be different for different people, but ultimately, it’s the same—love. Therefore, to know if something is truth, ask, “Is it love?” You’ll know by the way it makes you feel. For me, peace is the feelings barometer.

Life can be very hard and confusing. It often seems when you take one step forward, you wind up taking five steps backwards, right? It’s okay and you’re okay. In fact, you’re more than okay. You’re perfect just the way you are, because God loves you. That makes you perfect, and strong, and beautiful.

It’s sometimes easy to feel as though our faith has been weakened or shattered—especially when facing life’s challenges. But, in reality, we are never without faith. It’s just sometimes misplaced.

It’s easy to let the images the world portrays as perfect cause us to cast away our confidence and wallow in self-doubt. It’s easy if we believe everything we see. But you and I both know that seeing is not always believing, especially when it comes to outward appearances.

You believe God gave you a mission—a job to do. But it frightens you.
On the one hand, you know it’s divinely special that God has chosen you in such a special way to do specific work in the world for his glory and honor. But on the other hand, you have so many questions and concerns about it.
“Why me?” you ask yourself. “How do I know it’s really the Holy Spirit speaking to my heart and not that other spirit leading me astray? What if I fail? What will people say?”
Desire, inner peace, mission in Awareness, Faith, Personal Peace When we’re afraid of something, our first impulse is to run or fight. Either option gives what we fear more power than it deserves, and in the midst of our reacting to it, we’re not seeing it for what it really is—a distraction from our joy and peace. But when we stop and stare our fears down toe-to-toe, we see that even our worst fears not only can be conquered, but that they are powerless, and we are victorious.
