Reflections for Life Enrichment
– We all feel like misfits sometimes. But, God has created us with special gifts, talents and passions. If we dedicate them to him, he will show us a place and group where we belong, where we feel at home. In that place, we will be positioned to make the greatest impact and experience our deepest fulfillment.
– The Lord keeps us from great sorrows when we step out in faith for him. Life is fluid. Time moves on and so should we. We can take the circumstance we are in and make the most of it. When we acknowledge God’s presence in our situation he turns our attempts to “make the most of it” even more!
