How To Take Back Control of Your Life
It’s that time of year again. Spring is in the air and it’s time for your annual “spring cleaning.” It’s time to go through that junk drawer. You know which one I’m talking about-the drawer that you put everything that you’re not sure if you’re going to use it again, but you don’t want to throw it away-just in case. The one with the old twist ties, that single battery or those miscellaneous keys that surely go to something – you see where I’m going with this. If your junk drawer is like mine, you probably could dump the whole drawer in the garbage and not even miss anything in it.

Are You Fighting With Yourself? The Raging Battle Within By Linda H. Williams
How did you start you day? Did you greet the morning with the expectation of good things, with the intentionality of happiness, or did you feel like pulling the covers over your head, and like chicken little, just burying yourself? Your thoughts as you begin your day, is a major factor in determining the level of joy you’ll experience during the day. If you dread what awaits you outside of your door, you may be tempted to stay in bed. I know, you’re saying, ”I can’t stay in bed all day. I have too much to do.” Please understand that you don’t have to be lying in bed to be asleep.
“I wish I could just get that lucky break!” “I hope tomorrow will be a better day.” How many times have you heard this? You may even say it yourself, a time or two! Unfortunately, what most people don’t seem to understand is that nothing “just happens” in your life. You've got to do what you've got to do yourself to make something happen.

Psalms 37:23 says, “The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord; and he delighteth in his way.”
When you are broken into a million pieces, which piece do you hold onto? We all know it hurts to have your heart broken. Maybe a close friend betrayed your trust or let you down when you needed them most. Or maybe you have that awful feeling in your gut that the person you love just doesn't love you back. When our hearts are broken, we limp along, wondering how we ended up here and if we'll ever make it to the other side of the pain. And perhaps worst of all, we feel an emptiness that the broken pieces can’t seem to fill. What are the broken pieces?
What if there was a solution to stress so simple that it involved nothing more than feeling thankful for the good things in your life? In fact, there is. That solution is called gratitude. Studies have shown that people who regularly practice feeling thankful have a leg up when it comes to their health and that those who adopt an “attitude of gratitude” as a permanent state of mind experience many health benefits. Research suggests that grateful people may be more likely to: • take better care of themselves physically and mentallyr
What are you talking about? Is your conversation adding value to someone else’s life or are you just talking to hear yourself talk? How many times do you find yourself in a conversation that has absolutely no merit? You know the ones I’m talking about. The ones that begin with, ”Girl, did you hear…” or “Don’t tell anyone, but…” These types of conversation offer no value to your life of anyone else’s. You have a right not to be a part of negative conversations that tend to do more harm than good!
How To Take Back Control of Your Life
MAKING PREPARATIONS What Are You Preparing To Do? By Linda H. Williams
How many balls can you keep in the air at one time and still maintain your balance? If you stop and think about it, during the course of a day you can be Mom, wife, daughter, sister, co-worker, chauffeur, homemaker, friend, neighbor…and the list can go on and on. All of these represent something that we have a hand in and hence come the juggling act. If we’re not careful, not only will we drop a ball or two, but we’ll lose our equilibrium and fall.
