So I tell my wife this morning, “We’re going to co-author a book together.” Then she says, “Not today honey, I’ve got a headache.” LOL… Her quick wit is one of the many things that keeps me coming back for more. After 18 years of courtship and marriage we still manage to make it work.
I met a new acquaintance at a Christmas Party a few days ago that expressed to me a concern about authors and therapist. She asked the question, “Is it true that their relationships really are as good as they make them out to be?” After a couple of seconds of thought, I simple told her that I can’t speak for all however I can speak for me and my wife.

So the other night my 10-year-old Chance made it to the District Level to compete in an individual oral language event. This little guy really does have a knack for handling pressure situations with a gift-like ease and precision. I wish I would’ve had his kind of confidence and calm-under-fire when I was his age. Maybe the secret lies in his glasses. Hmmm…
I wish I could say that the excitement of the event was from watching him take first place and move on to regionals, but nope, he wasn’t in the top three to move on this time around. However, I must reluctantly admit that one of my most fun things to do at these type of competitive events is to scan the crowd while other kids are performing to see if I can pick out their parents.
Yes, as strange as it may sound, this type of activity serves as a bit of excitement for me and that evening did not disappoint. This activity has actually become like a game or hunt for me. Experience has taught me to look for the biggest smile and the brightest eyes and an occasional lean forward at the edge of their seats, then BINGO, I’ve found them. Honestly I’ve found that the facial expressions and body language of some of the parents are sooooo animated that you would think they were auditioning for a role of the next super hero called “Captain Cheesy” the super hero with the high-brows and the cheesy smile. LOL. This really is funny stuff, you should try it sometime. I’ve had some really funny side-busters lately. 🙂
On a more serious note, I truly believe our Creator views us in the same exact light. When we’re out there striving to do our best in this “life” thing, I bet he’s smiling, clapping and leaning forward in excitement and anticipation of us doing well and honoring him in the process. He’s counting on us to do our very best with the gifts He’s given us no doubt. I’m sure His “cheesy” smile is first to all and second to none.
So I say to you today, let’s not be found guilty of neglecting our God-given-gifts and talents in this life. Let’s continue to use them to the best of our ability to help others and show the one who created us that we can be counted on and not counted out. After all, just like any other parent, He will always be our biggest champion and supporter. So let’s go make it GREAT!

As a kid I was always told to make sure I knew my ABC’s. Now as an adult, I’m warning you to avoid the ABC’s like the plague.
The adult ABC’s are Anger, Bitterness and Complacency. These three partners-in-crime have been known to ruin even the best of men and women this side of the universe. Keeping these three characters in check is a full time job because just when you think you’ve got them under control, they can resurface with a vengeance and threaten to corrupt all you hold dear.
Remember “Anger” is just one letter from “Danger.“ “Bitterness” is the spite from the bite-of-betrayal, and the deceptive purr from the cat of “Complacency” can lull you into a life of mediocrity. Yes, these ABC’s on the surface may seem a bit benign, but WARNING, these three are as malignant as they come and if left unchecked, they can quickly develop into a full-blown, stage-four joy-killer and life-stealer. Don’t let them sneak-up and add you to their infamous list of victims. Not today.
I encourage you to know your ABC’s well and avoid them at all cost. This too is definitely a breadcrumb that can help you to Make it GREAT!
