wind compromise misfortunes
The swift wind of compromise is a lot more devastating than the sudden jolt of misfortune.

fear worry people
Life...as God intended it enables us to live above the drag of fear, superstition, shame, pessimism, guilt, anxiety, worry, and all the negativity that keeps people from seizing each day as a gift from Him.
eye views
Choose to view life through God's eyes.
maturity people coaching
