y w y y “This too shall pass.” And Jeremiah 29:11 has been a Truth that I have leaned on and repeatedly spoken since I was a young girl. Life changes, people come and go. Loving God, family, forgiveness and sharing Jesus is all that matters.” Helen Wayner P.A., Century 21 Hansen Realty The phrase that always sticks with me is “I choose you.” It is a phrase that means a lot. Sometimes I say it to my husband to remind him how much I love him. And I know God says it to me every day and challenges me to find a way to share that love forward. Jennifer O'Flannery Anderson, Ph.D., President/CEO, Community Foundation of Broward "Sometimes you have to do the unfun things to get to the fun things." This may not sound very spiritual, but it reminds me to keep a long-term perspective, and for me, that includes an eternal perspective. Jesse Carroccio, Community Impact Director, Moody Global Media In extra challenging times the phrase is a prayer — "God, help me grow. Make me equivalent to the task." Justus Martin, Photographer, Justus Martin Photo A phrase that inspires me daily comes from my life verse, Proverbs 3:5: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” In moments of challenge or uncertainty, I remind myself that I don’t have to have all the answers, God does. Placing my trust in Him gives me the strength and peace to press on, knowing He is always faithful to guide my steps. Ken Kerrigan, Pastor, Calvary Chapel Pompano Beach No worries! Gotta keep movin’ in Jesus Name! Larry Lacy, Pastor, The Answer Church If God has called me, He will equip me. Laura C. Bishop, Executive Vice President of Development, Palm Beach Atlantic University One phrase I remind myself of often is, “Jesus never said it was going to be easy, but He did say it would be worth it.” It helps me press on during challenges because it shifts my focus from the struggle in front of me to the purpose and hope that lie ahead. Dr. Mary Drabik, President, South Florida Bible College & Theological Seminary For certain, things in life do not go as we necessarily want or plan. In those times I fall back on the verse I used when I was first baptized: Proverbs 16:8 “A man's heart plans his way but the Lord determines his steps.” I later linked that with Proverbs 16:3 “Commit your activities to the Lord and your plans will be achieved.” After that I just try to remember that God is good, all the time! Mike McDermott, Seniors and Probate Specialist, The Keyes Company For me there are actually two. One is my life verse, Mark 8:36 "For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul?" The other is way more simple: "Remember the Cross." Our Lord publicly hung after being persecuted, humiliated and abused. Why should my life be any different? We will all go through seasons, good and bad, thankfully this is not our final home.
