I have been challenged to find something I am passionate about. To find something in my life time that I can be a part of to change and make better.
As I have been thinking and praying about this for the last week or so, The thing that keeps coming to mind is the way that marriage has become disposable.
I have been married for almost 30 years and could not think of ever being any where but here.
Marriage is not always easy. It is easy to be selfish and self centered. I speak from experience.  It takes 110 % from both sides. Being selfless when it is hard giving instead of taking. I have heard it said you must treat marriage like a bank account. You have to make deposits, giving instead of always taking. Praying for your spouse ( in a selfless way) can change your perspective.
I am a blessed woman. I thank God for my husband. I am praying about the next step to help young married couples find that this is a covenant and it should not be broken because of selfishness or greed.
My beloved, Greg and I, married almost 30 years.

I am blessed to have friends old and new. People who challenge me. I love being able to say whatever is on my heart and they do not judge me. Instead they support me and help me to be a better person. I love it that even my tarnished way of looking at things  when I am polished by friendship it changes everthing.

I know mine is today. 
Everyone has a gift. Mine is the gift of encouragement. 
So today feel encouraged to try something new and hope you will too.

P.S. Please know that I am a beginner, mistakes will be made. I welcome kind criticism
