Revive Love and Joy

​Happy MLK Day,
There are three simple things you can do each day that will breathe new life into everything you do.

First, as soon as you wake you each morning, speak words of faith and victory out loud, "My day is going to be great and my path is getting bigger and brighter."

Next, take time to write down the good things that God does for you each day. Example; He allowed me to wake up today, I have a job opportunity today, my kids are healthy, etc.  When you begin to look for His goodness, you will quickly discover that He is working in your life.

Finally, be thankful. Take a moment every day to thank the Lord for all He has done for you. When you develop a thankful heart, you are changing your focus from how big your problems are to how big your God is!  One of my favorite gospel verses is 1 Thessaloians 5:16-18 (Be Joyful always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances.

So, each day, I write down different things about Love, who is God and my wife Elisa.  The following are some snippets from my writings about Love (Elisa);

Love is......
Coming home to hear love screaming at the TV telling Tony Parker and Tim Duncan, or Marcus Mariota to play better.  Then replaying the entire game I just missed and watching it, again, with me.

Waking up to love every morning

Having love pick and fix your tie before a game

Love sometimes drives you crazy but you can't live without it (her)

Like a warm blanket to me.  Warm with love

Love taught me how to say, "Thank you."

Love made me a better man

Love blessed me with an awesome family

Love helped me to stay grounded and aspire to be a better man and person

Love helped me become a Catholic

Love was there when we got the call from Dr. Banks office about my cancer prognosis

Love loved on me and gave me lots of peace and comfort after the call

Love is my #1 fan

Love has supported me through thick and thin

Love is funny especially at night when we're in bed laying down about to go to sleep  

Love always makes me laugh

Love is Elisa

Love you for reading my blog
