My view from "The Chair" this morning. Hebrews 13:7 nlt. Who is it that spiritually helps you grow? Who is it that when you look at their life, it provides additional guidance and demonstrates a life based on the Word? Who is it that provides an example for you to follow? When I remember who God has put in front of me to follow in their footsteps, I am grateful for their leadership. Who is it for you? Today will you join me in thanking them? How about sending them a text or a handwritten note?
My view from "The Chair" this morning. Proverbs 16:24. Our tongue is one of the most powerful tools God gave us.

My view from "The Chair" this morning - I Timothy 6:6-8.My view from "The Chair" this morning - I Timothy 6:6-8. Oh my sweet friend, how I long to "REMEMBER" this. Truly, it all goes back in the box, just like when we play board games and they come to an end. Everything goes back in the box. I want to be a good steward of what He has entrusted me. I want to use every ounce of it for His purposes. I don't want to get to the end and be standing there looking at the sign that says, "No baggage allowed". Let's live generously because He is a generous God who owns it all. Generosity = Contentment. I give you permission to start small. Maybe it is leaving a quarter on a gumball machine for some kiddo to find. Maybe it is buying groceries for a single struggling mom. I don't know what He will ask you to do, but I do know that if you do it, you will be filled with His uncontainable joy and contentment. After all, He gave us the most expensive and lavished gift He had, His son to pay the price for our wrong doings. I would love to hear your story or see a picture of your generosity. Please just add it in the comments.
My view from "The Chair" this morning - Isaiah 46:3,4. Wowzee! Doesn't get much clearer than this. YOU and I are His creations. We have been thoughtfully tended to and loved by the Creator of the Universe. He can be trusted to take care of us on this wild, crazy, wonderful, messy, and sometimes rollercoaster of an adventure we call "Life". He has an untangled view. Today, will you sing with me the anthem, "It is Well With My Soul"? I would love for someone to video themselves singing it and attach it to this. Do you have another song that declares these truths? Would you share it with us in the comments?
My view from "The Chair" this morning - Isaiah 49:16. He not only has your name on His hand, He has all the other endearing names He calls you written there as well. Maybe today you should write these names on your hand and look at them as reminders of just who you are to Him and how He thinks about you. If you do, please post a picture in the comment section. It would encourage all of us.
My view from "The Chair" this morning. Psalm 90:12. Want to be wise? Hold onto the fact that "this" life is super short compared to eternity and we are sojourners passing through.

My view from "The Chair" this morning 2 Corinthians 3:4-6.
