What's Cookin' in Your LIfe?

Life itself is the proper binge

Julia Child

Life!   Take a whack at it!

let the good times roll

Dish it out

and take it in

Stir things up!

Bowl them over!

Heat it up!

But above all else

                                                               Enjoy the process!
                                                            and that's poetiquejustis
                                              So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do,
                                                       do all to the glory of God.         
                                                              1 Corinthians  10:31

Only You

The work of art which I do not make, none other will ever make

Simone Weil

Get busy!

There is something to be done and only

There is a smile that only you can put upon someone's face

There is a vision that only you can share with the world

There is a joy that only you can give

There are words of comfort that only you can say

You are here and now for a reason!

Your life is that work of art only you can create.

And that is poetiquejustis

You are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, 

but on a candlestick; and it gives light to all that are in the house. 

Matthew 5:14-15

Change it up

You are the way you are because that is the way you want to be

Fred Smith

Do you want to be happier?

Then...

Do you want to be at peace?

Then...

Do you want to make a difference in this world?

Choose to make a difference.

Then do something small or big today to  make the world a little better

If you want things to be better inside and out

Choose that life

  Choose that change

 and choose to live it

and that's poetiquejustis

 Therefore if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature; 

the old things passed away; 

behold, new things have come.

2 Corinthians 5:17

Today: Your Turn to Learn

As knowledge increases, wonder deepens

Charles Morgan

Every day -  an adventure in learning

Every moment - a chance to let go of what you thought you knew

And making friends with what you are about to know

Adding color and light to your world with wonders that were always there

Just hidden in the shadow of  things you have piled up from the past

Let in some light

Learn something new today

That is what makes life wonderful

And that's poetiquejustis

An intelligent heart acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge

Proverbs 18:15

Cut it out!

Don't cut your conscience to fit these year's fashions

Lillian Hellman

Cutting corners

Cutting remarks

Cutting "the fat"- aka upping the profits

Cutting quality in what we provide

None of that makes us any sharper

Especially when it dulls the heart

Today

Be a little sharper....give a little more ....sleep a little better because

 and that's poetiquejustis

Do to others as you would have them do to you.

Luke 6:31

 

The other side of your coin

Life is meant to be spent, not to be saved

D H Lawrence

Are you saving life up for a rainy day?

Are you just banking on your future being any different than today?

Or are you investing in yourself now-

Taking an interest in everything that is around you

Give yourself some credit!

Living your own life fully

 is a luxury we all can afford

                                                            and that's poetiquejustis
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
Ephesians 3:20-21

That's a laugh!

Find something to laugh about

Maya Angelou

Today

 you may take it on the chin

You may take it as it comes

You may take it all in

But whatever you do

Do not take yourself so seriously!

 and that is poetiquejustis

Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with shouts of joy;
then they said among the nations,
 “The Lord has done great things for them".

Psalm 126:2
