Doing what “it” says = Serenity
James 1:22 “Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.” One of the greatest tools I was given in the infant stages of my sobriety was the serenity prayer:    God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change (other people, places and things), the courage…
Dreams into reality…
As you may have noticed I have found a new toy that I added to the homepage of my website and that is a photo gallery. Of course my dear humble wife chuckled as she looked at the photos and mumbled something about “narcissism.”   There is a method behind my “narcissistic madness.”  One of the great gifts…
Discipline=P.E.A.C.E.
Hebrews 12:11 “No discipline is enjoyable while it is happening–it’s painful! But afterward there will be a peaceful harvest of right living for those who are trained in this way.” My thought for the week (10/18/10) “success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines practiced every day,” comes from one of the most famous motivational…
Heart Guard
Proverbs 4:23 “Above all else, guard your heart as it effects everything you do.â€Â (NLT) When I read the Proverb above, I reflected back to a pivotal point in the history of our pharmacy business. That was when a team of us sat down and defined our vision (what we wanted to become) and mission…

Doing Good
Matthew 25:35-40 (NLV) “For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. I was naked, and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you cared for me. I was in prison and you visited me.” Then…
Excellence
Matthew 25:23, His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things.” My EagleLaunch Thought For The Week; “Excellence is a dynamic, ever-evolving state created by those willing to continuously redefine and stretch their potential,†came to me as…
Why do bad things happen?
“You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.” (John 13:7 NIV) Many years ago my wife and I were participating in a Bible study at a summer church camp. I was probably 3 years sober at the time and still very “green” when it came to controlling my tongue…a…
