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 161

Scripture: Ps 140, 142, 141; 2 Samuel 19:24-43; Acts 24:24—25:12; Mark 12:35-44


Scripture standout: Ps 141: "3 Set a guard over my mouth, LORD; 
   keep watch over the door of my lips."

Morning thoughts: Yikes, I have to be on live radio this morning. I'm excited, but mainly nervous. Another gal and I are sharing details of this editorial project I've been working on all summer. It's the project that has helped tip the work-balance scale this summer — it's the project, probably, that has driven me to the brink of insanity this summer.

As I sit here trying to calm my nerves, I just have to remember that I'm not actually the one talking. My words will come from a much smarter source. Why should I be worried about that?


His Deed/The Day: My mother in law is out of toilet paper at her house. So on the way out to the beach, we stopped to pick some up at the gas station. Held the door for a creepy guy with tats totin' a 12-pack.
