Keep Turning the Pages...



I've posted this on my other  blog, but thought it would be useful to post it here too.
a thought for today:

" Life is like a book with many chapters we call seasons. 
Some chapters tell the story of love, drama, comedy, mystery, loss, adversity, growth, disappointment, triumph, etc. Some chapters are dull and ordinary, others intense and exciting. 
The key to enduring, persevering and being hopeful is to never stop on a difficult page, to never quit on a book or a chapter that seems too long. 
Some chapters may be sweet but too short. 
Your words, thoughts, actions, non-action and choices are the pens that write the pages in your book. 
Have the courage and faith to keep turning the pages believing better chapters lie ahead. 
... Trust. Listen. Believe. ... 
Activate your gifts and talents. 
Be creative. Be kind. Be patient. Be faithful. Be grateful. Be fruitful."
