finish what you start: frustration
Yesterday I opened a topic of why do we not finish what we start? I zoned in on the first reason being, our focus. Where is your focus? Let us look at our verse again: 11 Now also finish the task, so that just as there was an eager desire, there…

monkey see. monkey do.
This was a phrase I first learned in kindergarten. There were kids putting paste in their ears. The teacher walked up and asked one of them why. They said because so-and-so was doing it. She said monkey see, monkey do. It took me years to understand what she was saying.…

today the celebration is His
Today there will be no cake. No singing happy birthday. No candles, no special dinner, no presents. No fun activity planned. No, today is a day that instead I choose to celebrate my Heavenly Father and give Him the glory, honor, and praise. Before time began, and this earth’s foundation…
