Embracing Your Differences
By Paula Friedrichsen
Cut roses are kept in cold storage at floral shops to keep them from blooming. This way, once they are exposed to warmth and a little natural sunlight, they will open with glory. The lovely fragrance fills your home, and the spectacular color of the flowers impresses all who enter.

20 Gifts that Are More Thought than Bought

Project Prayer…Hey, is it OK if I pray for you?
Actually, I pray for all of my Project Managers (that would be you) everyday. I know that as noble as this whole endeavor is, it can be hard being nice everyday.
Just as soon as you commit to the Project, someone gets sick or your husband gets chewed out at work, or finances that looked OK a week ago are suddenly desperate. (In one situation, a Project Manager had just began the program only to find out she was pregnant.) There is always something.
That is why it’s exciting to remember that it’s not all up to us. Ephesians 3:20-21 reads:
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.
God can, and will, do more in our marriages than we could hope or imagine. Make sure that prayer is part of your day when it comes to your guy. The proof of prayer will show up in your Project.
