Moments to Appreciate

Take a day each week to marvel and appreciate all the blessings. Each breath, the ability to walk, to feel the weather changes, to go out and hear the birds, to be stilled by the waters, to eat and drink life in — to its fullest capacity. It is a privilege to get to witness…

The Self Pity Pit

SELF- PITY – Victim – Poor me – Manipulation – Self- indulgence Self-pity is the result of NOT trusting GOD. Like all sin, self-pity is due to disobedience. Self-pity is a choice of our will.
