Mom's Advice

I was on the phone with my mom, sharing with her the latest happenings in my life and about something big that I am hoping for.

"What's hope for it to happen? You must make it happen!"

That's my mom. There's no such thing as hope, you MUST make it happen. Her firmness-that's what I love and dread about her.

But I see her point there. There's no use hoping. I must do my best. And I commit my best to the Lord.

Thanks mom for your advice, I must now get back to what I have to do.


"Surely this is our God; we trusted in him, and he saved us. This is the LORD, and we trusted in him; let us rejoice and be glad in his salvation." - Isaiah 25:9

Tranquility

Quietness is the most understated beauty in this world. I am relishing every rare moment of it now in this noisy, noisy life.
