May you walk in Son shine and be encouraged through the trials of life as a wife, mother and woman of faith. May laughter fill your days, courage strengthen your soul and His love light your way. May God be ever present and invited into your journey. May I refresh your spirit and cause your heart to smile.

Foozle Life
When you are working hard, living a good life cuz you are a good person and you are independently standing on your own two feet, making your own decisions, living off your own power, intelligence, wisdom and personal moral standard. That is the Foozle Life. Many of us try that society trained Foozle Life and many come to know that without God our own perceived goodness gets beaten down, loses meaning, direction and power. We were created by God to be in relationship with Him.
For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. Colossians 1:16 (New King James Version)
Found a little mathematical formula to demonstrate what equals 100% in life.
If: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
Is represented as: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.
If: H-A-R-D-W-O- R- K 8+1+18+4+23+ 15+18+11 = 98%
And: K-N-O-W-L-E- D-G-E 11+14+15+23+ 12+5+4+7+ 5 = 96%
But: A-T-T-I-T-U- D-E 1+20+20+9+20+ 21+4+5 = 100%
THEN, look how far the love of God will take you:
L-O-V-E-O-F- G-O-D 12+15+22+5+15+ 6+7+15+4 = 101%
Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that: While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you to 100%, which is man’s world, the Foozle Life. It's the Love of God that will put you over the top and that’s where God lives!
A pearl to string: It’s not about how well you do or how hard you work. Have you ever noticed when you are in the picture your view of the whole picture is limited? If you step away from the picture and view the whole picture you gain a clear perspective. Go ahead and look at your favorite family photo. Got it in front of you? Look at yourself! Remember when that shot was snapped? You were smiling at the camera, what kind of perspective is that? But as you gaze at the photo now – it’s all before you, wow, there is so much to see. Look at all those beautiful people in your family. We need our creator to fulfill the purpose of our creation.
God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God's work from beginning to end. (Ecclesiastes 3:11 NLT)
Running into the arms of Jesus,
