Never take for granted life’s experiences and never doubt your value

Notice Buildings

Kundtz writes, “We are offered so many wonderful opportunities for quiet, reflective moments by noticing the buildings that are part of our lives, especially in a city…. they are of an endless variety of shapes, sizes, and materials.” Buildings are a reflection of our lives and even circumstances and cultures around us. The author highlights author Clare Cooper Marcus who reminds us that our homes are as mirrors, a reflection of ourselves.

As we think about the varying edifices, let know each is designed and created with a particular purpose and to capture attention, and to be developed to serve a particular purpose. Similarly, let us be reminded of 1 Corinthians 6:19, “What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?” We, too, were designed with intention and purpose, and we were paid for with a price. May we always stand boldly and steadfastly in beauty as a representation of the most skilled architect of life.

Small Straws Scripture: Isaiah 43:18-19

Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.

What is behind us will not keep us from what is ahead of us. Use those things as just lessons or blessings in preparation and anticipation of what our Father is bringing forth to prosper us.

Youversion Verse of the Day: Psalm 34:19

Many are the afflictions of the righteous: But the Lord delivereth him out of them all.

We all will experience some trials in this life, yet God will deliver us and ensure victory overshadows and defeat.

Never take for granted life’s experiences and never doubt your value, my friend.🙏🏽💚🦋🌈
