Today's Food for Thought (September 20, 2017)

Don't wait for someone to bring you flowers. Plant your own garden. Decorate your own soil. - Mario Quintana

Love and respect yourself. No one else will be able to make that happen. Accept who you are completely – the good and the bad, and make changes as you see fit. Take conscious efforts to always find your center in God. Even when life is unclear, even when life is confusing; you will know you’re headed in the right direction when you focus on Him. For your center is where you are rooted in His love – a place where there is no need for striving, impatience and dashing about seeking approval. He is your point of reference – your Center.

No one will improve your lot, if you yourself do not. The way you treat yourself sets the standard for others. How generous of God granting us another time... to prosper, to win a heart, to right a wrong, to make things better and to live life with joy. You may be whatever you resolve to be. Your good heart shall tell you where to go, your sharp mind shall tell you how to get there, and your deep love for God shall guide you on your way. Don't wait for someone to decorate your life. Be guided by a Hand that you can't hold. Trust even if you can't see. It's God's part to do wonders, ours is the simplest part: to trust and pray.
