Victory over Blame
|
“A man may make mistakes, but he doesn’t become a failure until he blames someone else.” ~John Wooden There are victims and there are victors. Victims have an excuse for everything that goes wrong and they usually blame others for their lot in life. Victors have an eye for creating opportunity when something goes wrong…
Balancing Doubt & Confidence
|
If I would have seen this quote thirty years ago I would have ignored it and thought it was absurd as I once was one of the most confident idiots I’ve ever known. “Do you see a man wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.” Proverbs…
Walk
|
This thought came to me as I was reading Proverbs 17:19 “anyone who speaks boastfully invites disaster.” Talk is so cheap. Walk is so very valuable. How much time do you spend talking? How much time do you spend walking? An even better question is how much time do you spend planning your walk? …
Christmas Heart

Amen. P.E.A.C.E. Jay@EagleLaunch.com 2 Corinthians 3:17, “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.”

Great words to live by and a perfect recipe for serenity. If you find yourself under stress and in duress, step back and inventory how well you are loving, living and letting go. P.E.A.C.E. Jay@EagleLaunch.com Titus 3:2, “To speak evil of no one, to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all people.” (ESV)

Simple is More
|
Can you say humility? The longer I live the more I realize less is more…and this is coming from someone who almost died from a mentality of “too much is not enough.” P.E.A.C.E. Jay@EagleLaunch.com Psalm 116:6, “The Lord preserves the simple; when I was brought low he saved me.” (ESV)
Wise Humility
|
I also believe that ego, pride, denial and the wrong crowd are all factors that convince us that things are just fine while the world around us indicates otherwise. If you want to be good, surround yourself with people who tell you how great you are. If you want to be great, surround yourself…
Am I the Problem or the Solution?
|
Whenever I have a problem I have choices (according to the Serenity Prayer): 1. I can accept the problem…even if I don’t like it. 2. I can change the problem not by changing it, but by changing the way I view and act toward the problem. 3. I can view the problem as unacceptable and…
