I love the Muppets!  When I was growing up they were magical to me and I still get a kick out of them today.  Thought you might enjoy this song and video.  Watch the whole things and see if your favorite makes the cut!  BTW – which Muppet was your favorite?

Hope you enjoy the video below and it makes you smile!  Have a blessed weekend!

I consider myself a pretty normal person.  I like sweet tea, fried chicken and home-made ice cream.  I like jeans, a good movie and a real friend.  I like riding with the window down, the radio up and a breeze blowing in.  I say what I think, sometimes before I think about what I say and I know that I’ve got work to do.

Last night as I was reading some Scripture, The Spirit brought me to this verse:  “Let your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person.” Colossians 4:6

My speech is to always be with grace.  Not some of the time and not just when I feel like it.  The same grace that God spoke and speaks into my life, I am to speak into the lives of others.

It then says that my grace is to be seasoned with salt.  Salt accentuates and brings out the flavor, while at the same time preserving and causing my words to last.  Grace words seasoned with salt help me to know what to say and to who.  The how always stays the same “in grace”!

God spoke and speaks grace into my life and I am to speak grace into the lives of others for His glory.  I’ve got some work to do, and I am pretty excited about it.  May the meditation of my heart and the words of my mouth be full of God’s amazing grace. grace words that have a sweet sound and bring salvation, freedom and release to all who hear.

Do you ever feel like you are in this world all alone?  Are you ever faced with choices and you just don’t know where to turn?  Do you wish that there was someone who would walk with you and help you through the challenges of life?

I’ve got good news!  You are not alone.  There is somewhere to turn.  And there is someone to walk with you and help you through the challenges of life.  Your Creator cares for you and has an amazing plan for your life.

He loves you so much that He made the way for relationship by giving you what you could not give yourself – the Savior.  God in the flesh paid the price by giving his life in the place of your life, so that you could have abundant and everlasting life.

When Jesus was here on the earth he said:  “And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever– the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.”  John 14:16-17

If you know Jesus, then you know the Spirit.  The Spirit of truth that helps you to see, know and understand spiritually.  He is with you and lives in you, so that you will never ever have to be alone again.

Take some time today to think and thank!  Think about the amazing blessing of not being alone, having somewhere to turn and having someone to walk with you and help you face the challenges of life – how incredibly awesome is that?  Thank your Creator for all of His blessings by living a life of surrendered service that gives Him glory.  You will be glad you did!
