Dear ,
A teenager entered the kitchen one evening while his mother was preparing dinner. As the boy sauntered through the room, he placed a slip of paper on the counter. He then took a seat at the table and waited quietly.
When she found a moment to pause from her meal preparation, mom dried her hands on her apron. She picked up the paper and read what her son had written.

The boy studied his mother as she examined his "bill." She said nothing, but fished a pen from the pocket of her apron. Mom turned the paper over and began to write. In a few moments she stopped, placed the pen and paper on the counter and continued preparing dinner.
Curious, the boy walked over and picked up his "bill," and read what his mother had written.

When the boy looked up from the paper, his eyes were filling with tears. He took the pen from the counter, turned the paper over and hastily scribbled on it.
He handed the paper to his mom. She looked at it. Written across the "bill" were the words "paid in full." The boy hugged his mother and whispered, "I love you."
Have a Joyous Mother's Day!
Blessings,

LET HOPE IN
Your past is not your past if it's still impacting your present.
Do you ever feel as though your life has become a broken record? You're hearing the same song play over and over again? Nearly every human being on earth has likely spent some time on the carousel of pain. Whether you're dealing with the guilt and regret of your own sinful choices, or you're sitting in the shame of someone else's deceitful actions, God wants to bring you healing. Pastor Pete walks us through the process of transformation, teaching us that if pain is not transformed, it will only be transferred. He reveals God's truths in this process through the biblical accounts of Joseph and David. Pete identifies the process of changing your life by these 4 choices:
Choice #1: Choosing to Transform Instead of Transfer
Choice #2: Choosing to Be Okay With Not Being Okay
Choice #3: Choosing to Trust Rather Than Please
Choice #4: Hurt People, Hurt People, But Free People, Choose to Free People
Whether you're looking for a new beginning or just ready for a renewal in your walk with God, Pete shows us that "anything is possible "when you learn how to make new choices and let hope in.

UNGLUED Sick of the kids not picking up after themselves, or did your husband not fix that shelf you asked him about umpteen times? Perhaps then you've felt yourself boiling over with raw emotion. It's a feeling we've all experienced, and one that Proverbs 31 Ministries President Lysa TerKeurst wants to help women learn to positively process. More often than not we hurt the ones we love the most, and Lysa wants to help women everywhere through the steps to stop those outbursts of emotion. Because Lysa has a warm and tender voice, reading one of her books feels as though you are talking to your best girlfriend about your daily travails. In Unglued, she explores many of the raw emotions we all experience, such as fear, anger, and regret. She breaks down the underlying causes of raw emotions enabling you to pinpoint the triggers, while also helping you manage and process daily frustrations. This leads to caring for yourself by staying in control of your emotions. Where before you may have seethed, now you will soothe. This newfound sense of emotional control, tied together with prayer and hope in a loving Savior, help Lysa and her readers, remain glued into a loving whole.

Some Parting Fun...
| |
Miss Jones had just given her second-grade students a science lesson. She had explained about magnets, and showed how they would pick up nails and other bits of iron. Now it was question time.
Miss Jones said, "My name begins with the letter 'M' and I pick up things. What am I?"
A little boy in the front row proudly said, "You're a mother!
