How to Do-Good

Quick How-To Guide: Start the day with a little silence, scripture (via Forward Day by Day, if you choose) and prayer. Then open your eyes and make it a practice to be hyper-aware of who and what's going on around you. Deploy that deed with confidence when God gives you his signature gentle nudge. This may feel awkward and unnatural. #NoWorries #GoWithIt #DeedWellDone #BlessingsEnsueJustWait

Day 103

Scripture: Ps 89:1-52; 1 Samuel 5:1-12; Acts 5:12-26; Luke 21:29-36


Scripture standout: Luke 21: 34 “Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you suddenly like a trap. 35 For it will come on all those who live on the face of the whole earth. 36 Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.”


Morning thoughts: It's amazing what anxieties creep into my brain when I'm deliberating whether I should get up and get going or sleep longer. Sleeping longer, unless on vacation, is never the right call. And how interesting that today's verse from Luke references the "anxieties of life." In that half-sleep-half-awake morning state, life does feel like it's about to close like a trap. And just as soon as I put two feet on the floor, brush my teeth and re-evaluate — I have long escaped it.



His Deed/The Day: Two spray bottles of Axe "Music" spray cologne for the boys. And that's all she wrote.
