Welcome to Faith Connections Friday! Do you look forward to each day with anticipation? What if we began each day with, “What are we going to do today, Lord?” What if we trained our mind to look for Him? His work. His beauty. His reflection. His blessing. His protection. His provision. His presence. A friend… Continue reading What Are We Going to Do Today, Lord?

Living for Each Today
Writing (for me) in any form is therapy. I love journaling because I don’t have to care about correct grammar, punctuation, or making any sense whatsoever. It’s simply personal random thoughts, however they come into my silly little brain. Journaling has been an enjoyable, therapeutic habit for decades (though entries over the past few years… Continue reading Living for Each Today
Time is Precious
Welcome to Connections2Excellence! Thank you for being here. The year 2020 is new, and we are slowly getting back into our daily routines. Hopefully, your holidays were relaxing and inspiring.

So You Wanna Be Royal?
I admit it. I love watching chick flicks. Among my favorites are “Ever After” and the “Princess Diaries” series. Today we see children (and adults) fascinated about what it is like to be royalty. An ordinary person, or presumed ordinary, becomes royal. So, what does this mean? Aside from the elegant image one upholds, one… Continue reading So You Wanna Be Royal?

After gaining strength by eating a can of spinach, he could lift heavy weights without effort and solve any problem that came his way. When we explore job opportunities, one topic may be identifying our strengths. Some businesses… Continue reading Two Are Better Than One

Before Jesus ascended to heaven, He said it was necessary that He leave so the Helper (the Holy Spirit) could come. One… Continue reading Our Wonderful Counselor
Simple Gratitude
A simple thank you card. A handwritten note saying, “You’re the Best.” An anonymous gift on someone’s desk. A hot beverage just because. A brief conversation to catch up. Gratitude. We have so much for which we can express thankfulness. Many organizations are focusing on expressing appreciation to their employees with thoughtful acts of kindness.… Continue reading Simple Gratitude
Think On These Things
What comes to mind when you see children laughing at kittens playing or a couple who has been married for decades dance to their song? How do you focus your mind if you are fearful or anxious or receive unexpected news from the doctor? Upon what do you meditate when you need to relax or… Continue reading Think On These Things
An Example to Follow

Seasoned professionals spend months or years guiding and developing their protégés to be great leaders. Together, they share life experiences, dreams, and goals. Together, they progress the path while reaching markers and providing encouragement… Continue reading An Example to Follow
