Attitude is everything!

I have been abundantly blessed with a new team to partner with in ministry. I have been shaken to my core as I experience the power of excitement, the contagious impact of positivity, and the blessedness of service. I am grateful for the gift of these women, sisters in passion and sisters in purpose...but I am most grateful as God has reminded me that joy is a gift! Joy is something we must cling to, and fight to maintain in our lives. The attitude of those that we partner with in life can truly lift our spirits and transcend the minor frustrations of the day...likewise how can my willingness to serve another above and beyond bless those around me? How can my excitement and enthusiasm help to stir passion in others? How can my positive outlook lift a cloud over another? I have fought so many battles of late, that I had almost forgotten the power we have to truly empower each other with the gift of passionate, joyfilled, enthusiasm! These precious women have been a transfusion to my soul! How I love them, and how grateful and joyfilled I am to step into 2009 with JOY!
