 I receive a daily devotional from Rick Warren of Saddleback Church and yesterday these words really caught my eye: I believe that genuine self-esteem — as opposed to pop psychological self-esteem — is built on two biblical truths. It’s not about raising yourself up by your bootstraps or thinking positively or the “I’m OK;…

 Amen…if I’m not the problem, there is no solution. I used to be an excuse machine until I was introduced to the Serenity Prayer. Today, whenever the committee in my head slams the gavel and calls an “excuse meeting” to order, I start praying the Serenity Prayer.

 It is so easy to get sucked into the material world. The quote above is a great way to inventory what you base your worth on. Love of anything of the world is fleeting but love from God is steadfast and permanent and when our love and commitment to Him is the same, amazing…

I learned some great lessons when my life took a plunge into the valley many years ago. Humility was the greatest lesson of all. P.E.A.C.E. Jay@EagleLaunch.com Proverbs 22:4, “The reward for humility and fear of the Lord is riches and honor and life.” (ESV)
