Thanks to All Who Serve
We live in the greatest country in the world! God has always blessed America, we truly have been a nation under Him.
I am so thankful for all the men and women who have fought to keep this country safe, all who have sacrificed so much for
so many. We take for granted that our freedoms will always be there not realizing at what price our freedoms have been
bought. Be diligent, pray, and ask that God keep us and protect us always. We celebrated Veterans Day yesterday
and in our group I saw in the faces of those who have served our country, a reverence for that life experience and a
very personal transformation in recalling the memories of service. They have been forever changed by war. Life lessons
are often hard and deeply meaningful and are always cause for growth and change. Thank you, all! May God continue
to bless America!

Procrastination is the enemy of us all. Truly, half the battle
is just beginning! Pick one thing that you can do, today. Accomplish one task today that will give
you that satisfying feeling of one less thing waiting to be done. You will feel empowered to go on to the
next task.
Unwavering belief is a belief so strong that it stands up against
challenges. Sometimes other people, believing they are being helpful, will try to persuade us to be realistic, meaning
we shouldn't aim too high. Successful people keep their goals high and their expectations inline. Successful
people are practical dreamers, with dreams they figure out how to make come true.
M. Scott Peck said, "The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply
uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely
to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers."
