In case anyone needed a reminder this week. Its been a bit rough around these parts. Let's just say, and oldie but goodie got me all up in arms, and so I thought I'd remind some folks, you're only a victim, if you choose to be.

To hear more of these archived talks. Go here.
How often do we neglect to pat ourselves on the back? Giving ourselves an A++ for effort. Today's Talk is just that, learning to live with the choices we've made. Picking ourselves up, dusting off, and keeping it moving. Remember, what didn't kill you made you stronger. This is an oldie but goodie fron the retro files.
Sometimes we have to deny access for the process to complete. Let's talk about Jesus' example of this in Matthew 12:46-50
Very much implied.
We live in a world marked by the consequences of our choices, yet we have no regard for the supernatural deity whose unconventional wisdom created safety for us. Take a listen to today's episode, you may be surprised to discover just how much this unconventional or radical wisdom trumps our very ideals, yet should give us so much hope.
It's a trip in human nature how when we get in a jam, we conveniently forget how to ask for help. Listen, now is as good a time as ever to ask for help. You'd save yourself some of the heartache and difficulty of not doing so. Take a listen.
Humility is difficult at times. Often with conventional wisdom, we can tend to approach things from 1 side. But there are two sides to a story especially when we are not in full control of the outcome. If we truly understand God to be in control. He masterful at what he does. So we have to trust the process.
If they don't give you a seat at the table. Don't force them, just build your own.
You may have to sweat. You might even have to do so with the scraps, but build it, nonetheless. Take in some wisdom for the journey.
...and all this time, we thought the devil was was in the details. LOL Check out today's car ride where I got a download, we didn't know we needed until now. Connect with my 365Journal on Instagram @Simply.mimi_365

Have you ever just needed a sense of belonging? Sometimes you've just got to go the distance to find your people. Take a look at this week's podcast show,
Learning to love yourself can be challenging if you haven't set proper boundaries around your life to preserve you. Take a quick listen to today's message.
A reflection Pastor Michelle made while on retreat early this year, after losing her dad. Some realizations only come when we find ourselves having to grapple with some change. In this case, the change came with losing her dad. Take a listen.
I'll be back! I know its been a long time. Just wanted to let you know that I haven't forgotten about you guys.
Thanks for 365 days full of love, light, and the grace of God.
