The 2 Greatest

Do you like to tackle DO IT YOURSELF projects?  They can be fun and frustrating.  The key is knowing what DIY projects to take on and to know when DIY doesn't work.  In one forever area, DIY is not for you or me.

Do you ever wonder just how strong a relationship might be?  How would you know?  What are the indicators?  Here are some to consider.

On the hoarder-minimalist scale, where are you?  There are things we all should give away, get rid up, or not buy more of.  BUT there are some things that need to be maximized, not minimized.  What's on your never minimize list?

For many Easter is a one and done each year.  It's a nice reminder of a truth that gives us hope.  But it's left behind after the church service, the egg hunt and the Sunday lunch until the next year.  But wait, there's more! Friends, we we're made to be RESURRECTION PEOPLE.

WAITING.  We all do it and most of us don't do it very well.  What if waiting, sitting in sorrow, not rushing to find silver linings, could be good for our soul?  Are you sitting between death and life?
