Southern Inspiration

Today, I’m participating in the Miracle Makeover Party! Read the details at the bottom of the post and start commenting! Thank you to Guideposts Magazine for bringing us the video of Colette and her miracle makeover. The link to see the video is at the bottom of this post.

Colette’s story is inspiring. Many things inspire us in life. Special people, the song of a bird, rainbows, a refreshing breeze – all of these remind us who we are and Whose we are. They remind us of our Creator and our salvation! Praise God From Whom All Blessings Flow!

As many of you know, I lost my beloved Grandpa last Friday. He inspires me to live life well and fully.

I lost my father in 1992. I’m inspired by him to care about people and to let them know that I care.

I am very fortunate to still have my mother. She inspires me to put my heart in to everything I do, whether it is teaching a class, working with clients, making dinner or setting a table – give it your all and do it well.

I am also inspired by my husband. He inspires me to be committed and he makes me laugh.

I could go on and and on about all the inspiration in my life – sisters, brother, nieces and a nephew, a bonus father and on, and on it goes.

Today, I’m inspired by a cool morning after so many hot, hot summer days! What inspires you today?

    Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates. I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.

    Right now it seems like Movable Type is the best blogging platform available right now. (from what I’ve read) Is that what you are using on your blog?

    Aw, this was an incredibly nice post. Taking a few minutes and actual effort to generate a great article… but what can I say… I procrastinate a whole lot and never seem to get nearly anything done.

    I’m impressed, I must say. Rarely do I encounter a blog that’s both educative and interesting, and without a doubt, you have hit the nail on the head. The problem is something not enough men and women are speaking intelligently about. I’m very happy that I found this during my search for something concerning this.

    Wow that was unusual. I just wrote an really long comment but after I clicked submit my comment didn’t appear. Grrrr… well I’m not writing all that over again. Anyway, just wanted to say wonderful blog!

    May I simply say what a relief to discover someone that actually knows what they’re discussing on the net. You definitely understand how to bring a problem to light and make it important. A lot more people need to read this and understand this side of the story. I was surprised you are not more popular given that you most certainly have the gift.

    Right now it looks like Drupal is the top blogging platform out there right now. (from what I’ve read) Is that what you are using on your blog?

    Can I just say what a relief to find somebody who really understands what they are discussing on the internet. You definitely understand how to bring a problem to light and make it important. More and more people must read this and understand this side of the story. It’s surprising you’re not more popular because you surely possess the gift.
