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 181

Scripture: Ps 40, 54, 51; 1 Kings 18:20-40; Philippians 3:1-16; Matthew 3:1-12


Scripture standout: Phillippians 3: "But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."


Morning thoughts: TGIF! Press on!
His Deed/The Day: So I had to order cupcakes today for Marley's birthday next week. Not HAD to. Let me rephrase that, I GOT to — because it is a very fun, and whimsical little thing to do. And it's something I probably won't get to do much longer now that my baby is turning 10! Anyway, Marley wanted 24 cupcakes with squirrels on top. Take a moment to imagine it. Squirrels. So I went to the best cupcake place in town to place the order. As I was checking out, I spied the teal Jaguars cupcakes. I had to have those to serve after dinner, on the evening of the season opener! Then I thought of the friend I was meeting for coffee — wouldn't she and her husband like two cupcakes, too! Cupcakes pack a lot of love.
