More Nuggets of Wisdom


Today is Quote Queen and list member Molly Rhea's birthday.

Today's post is something she sent me two years ago in celebration of her day.

SELECTIONS FROM "GOD NEVER BLINKS"

Life isn't fair, but it's still good.

It's okay to get angry with God. He can take it.

Don't compare your life to others' lives. You have no idea what their journey is all about.

Burn the candles. Use the nice sheets. Wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.

What other people think of you is none of your business.

Read the Psalms. They cover every human emotion.

No matter how you feel, get up, dress up, and show up.

If you don't ask, you don't get.

WORD for YOUR WEEK: When they say someone has an "indomitable" spirit, what do they mean? The word is, as most words are, from Latin where domare meant "to tame." Adding the negative prefix of "in," the word became indomitabilis, and from there it was a short leap to indomitable. It literally means untamable. An indomitable spirit is wild, unable to be conquered, strong.
