Grateful Isn't Always Thankful

Is there a difference between being thankful and grateful? My mother and grandmother would argue about it. What is grateful in 2016 when the only way people show appreciation is to bump fists or send an email that says you da man.

Get It Off The Wish List

I've never been a fan of wish boards or wish lists. It totally sets us up for failure. The moment that bright idea doesn't come into play the heart becomes sad. Get your ideas off the wish board and put it on a path of faith.
