It is June (at the time of this recording), and I take a moment to reflect on where we are going and how the year started out getting us there. I read a blog post that addresses this very thing.

The link to the blog I read from can be found here: https://chandinimusings.blogspot.com/2024/09/halfway-through-year-moment-to-pause.html

I share a scripture verse that lays out a wonderful plan that will have an impact for generations to come. I read from Ruth 4:16-17. Pray over your children and your grandchildren and so on. Who knows what the plans and purposes the Lord has for your bloodline?

The most amazing day in history has been celebrated - Easter, aka Resurrection Day! Now what do we do? I share an article I found that addresses this very thing. Here is a spoiler alert - live life to the fullest.

I came across a newsletter that showcased the power of perspective. This reminded me of a parable (not from the Word), and that in turn reminded me of a joke. I share all three, all dealing with the theme of this episode, 'you get to choose'.

I take a look at a scripture that is filled with hope. It is found in the book of Judges, chapter six, and it is verse twelve. No matter the negative chatter you tell yourself or the failures that surround you, that does not define you!

I go over an article that showcases five quotes about hope. Four of the five have names to credit the quote to. It is a nice read and I have included the link to the article at the following url:

I review a book I just added to my personal library. It is book number seven in the series called God's Generals. They are written by Roberts Liardon. This book is titled the following - God's Generals: Movements of the Spirit
