"You only lose energy when life becomes dull in your mind. Your mind gets bored and therefore tired of doing nothing. Get interested in something! Get absolutely enthralled in something! Get out of yourself! Be somebody! Do something! The more you lose yourself in something bigger than yourself, the more energy you will have." -- Norman Vincent Peale
Norman's right!
I have been struggling with a lack of energy lately. Can anyone relate? However, I’m amazed at what I’ve been able to accomplish the last few weeks as I’ve battled being ill. My dreams are bigger than me. Thankfully, enthusiasm has swooped down and taken over.
God loves to see us excited about life -- the life He gave us. He sees our every need, and provides. He is Jehovah-Jirah – JJ!
Are you running on empty? Are you losing heart? Get lost in something bigger than yourself.
After all, Norman's right!

It is so true. When we focus on something bigger than ourselves, we can seem to get more done. Thanks for reminding us of this truth.
Love ya,

I hope you're feeling better! Do you find writing projects bigger than yourself? I do.
I look forward to your next Bible study. "Dirty Laundry Secrets" was great! Now I'm off to work on that bigger than myself project. . .
Blessings in Christ-

When we live in God's purpose we will never be bored. Living out of our box! May God Presence in your life be seen more and more. B
