Use Your Gifts

Hi Moms:
Most of us have heard the expression, "If you don't use it, you'll lose it".  So are you using your gift? A gift can be described as something you do well with very little effort.  You may be a great writer, a seamstress or you may have the skills to manage a tight family budget. Be proud of your gift.  You may never know how your gifts can bring joy to yourself and others until you use them.

Daily Blessings

Hi Moms:
When your child receives a gift from Grandma, don't you expect her to say Thank You?  When a friendly stranger offers his seat on the bus, don't you say thanks?  It shouldn't take big things to make you grateful. Think of the blessings you get everyday - shelter, food, health and much more.  What are you thankful for? Find ways to give thanks this week.

Watch your Words

Hi Moms:
When you hear a rumor at work, at your church or in your community, what do you do? Do you Ignore it - Do you add to it - Do you help spread it?  Next time a rumor begins, why not go to the source. Ask the question, "Is it true"?  It may begin a much needed conversation and end a lot of wasted time.

Your Body for Life!

Hi Moms:
Most of us have heard soulful singer Aretha Franklin's song RESPECT. What do you respect? You may never disrespect your church. You may not deface your home. But how much respect are you giving to your own temple - your body? Are you getting enough rest?  Do you drink water daily? How often do you exercise? What is your temple saying about you?
