His Mercies are New Every Morning..

/ Kelly Savage / Leave a comment

” The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness”

Let today be a day of reflection that this is a brand new day given to you, with new mercies and a day to start fresh. Let your contentment not be found in things, but reflect on your life, the life that has been given to you once again today.

God has constant and continuous mercy. It’s His saving grace to us.

Flat Tire – 

Dangerous Highway –

4 hour wait –

Fog –

Flying Trucks –

Questionable Tow Truck –

Anxiety Attack in the Making……..

 

Today’s episode……A Small Nightmare…… is about all of these and quite a bit more.  

Fear is the opposite of faith, hope and can wreak havoc in our minds and steal joy from you.  

A Small Nightmare begins with an occurrence, coupled with extra bad occurrences yet ends in transformation from just one thought.

Thank you for joining me on Butterfly Thoughts……where we take our transformation journey day by day….thought by thought…..AND we are doing it together.

I’ve Been SCHOOLED!

I’ve been SCHOOLED!

For anyone who knows me and spends time with me, my time spent is trying to be positive, giving the benefit of the doubt to all, seeing the bright side of things and believing in faith, hope and love.

I don’t dwell in the negative.  There is negative out there and I surely know that.  My focus, however, is on the positive side of things.  

Or should I say that’s my focus ALMOST all the time.

I’ve been schooled is about a lesson I learned to listen to my own advice.  Ever been there?  Can you relate?

The fact is…..growth, as challenging at it is at times, from the smallest to the largest of issues, really can be beautiful and truly change our perspective.

Here’s to all of our growth stores in our lives and the fortitude in all of us that does exist.

Thank you for joining today!

I found myself apologizing today.  Where you ever in that predicament?  

Do we find saying “I’m sorry” hard?  Why?

My apology ended powerfully.  Where, in my apology, her attitude and mine changed!  

I say confidently that the small, common courtesy, acts are powerful and can change the atmosphere…….just like that.

Thank you for joining and listening in….

The Power of Onion Layers

“This Moment is Meant Just for You”………..that was my Butterfly Thought for the day and I ceased it. 

Healing comes in layers, like a peeling of an onion.  At times we cry with the peeling of an onion, but with crying, can come healing.

Come join us for a few moments to reflect on how crying, nostalgic feelings and a butterfly thought produce a perfect storm that is meant to touch at that very moment.

Here’s to anyone that needs to hear this and to cease a moment.

Thank you for joining!

The Power of Now

Episode:  The Power of Now

Do your thoughts automatically go in the past or the future?  Think about it.  That might even take practice to see where our sometimes complicated mind is at……

Today’s episode reflects on whether we are truly enjoying the NOW moment.  The one we have this very minute.  Remember, the next moment isn’t promised.

I was reminded of that today along with the power of NOW – living this moment to the fullest.

Thank you for joining us on the journey of thoughts that can usher us into transformation.

Thought by thought – day by day – together.

A Mother’s Prayer

💖💖💖💖

Talk about Motivational Monday!  I got a wedding to attend soon!  My son is getting married this Saturday to an amazing young woman and together they remind me of teamwork on steroids!  Sorry – it’s the best way I can put it! 🙂 – through life’s ups and downs and what it throws at us sometimes, this couple has worked with persistency to grow together and have fun doing it!

What does that have to do with motivation you ask?  Well, let me be real.  I have prayed their whole life to be able to find someone and share the next chapters of their life with that person and now this season is among them.

But, as a mother, you continue to only wish the best for your children and prayer has always been one thing that I truly believe in and have seen first hand how it works.

What does that have to do with your Motivational Monday?  What I would like is for it to remind each and every one of us that God is among us and He always loves to hear from us and our hearts.

So, today, my motivation took me to the upcoming bond of marriage and the prayer as a mother.

~May these two people who have found each other continue in the ways of love, grace, kindness, forgiveness and fun.

~ May life treat them good, fair and plentiful but through life’s stuff that happens, may the teamwork get stronger and they continue to have each other’s back in words, action and prayers.

~ May their life be protected in their relationship, their health, their minds and finances

~ May they continue to look at each other with acceptance, love, innocence and may life bring them remembrances of the times love was first felt.

~  May they continue to support each other in their individuality and their dreams making them happen and looking back, knowing, their commitment carried them through.

~ May laughter be plentiful and fun times be had, may they be each other’s priority, safe zone, cheerleader and who they run to when a bad day comes.

~ My wish, hope, want and prayer is for them to love and be loved like God loves them and to experience life to the fullest for what they both need and want 🙂

That is all a mother could ask for…..

Let this be a motivation for all of us to say a prayer today for yourself, ones you love or reaching out to people you know need a touch today.

Now that’s motivation!

Happy Monday!

As the Dawn Breaks…..so did my attitude

/ Kelly Savage / Leave a comment

As I got up with a little attitude today 🙂 , I looked out the window and saw the dawn breaking …..and today, it felt different.  Why? I don’t know? Was it because it was completely dark when I got up and I am witnessing the day getting lighter and brighter?  Was a revelation coming that I am about to receive?  I don’t know…….

First, I’m sick and tired – no, literally, I don’t feel well and I am exhausted and my normal sleeping like a baby routine was interrupted by an hour and half of being awake and no way getting back to sleep ?  And let me note, I LOVE my sleep so when there is some interruption, I’m not particularly happy.  🙂

But as I saw the dawn starting to break in my little attitude, a thought hit me…….it’s a start of another day and I GET TO BE IN IT, a part of it and simply put……. I woke up!  I don’t want the alternative, not at this point in my life as I am living each day to the fullest and enjoying the smallest of occurrences.

As many times throughout my life and especially through certain circumstances, I chose to think on the positive things, the things that encourage, lift up and the blessings I have versus what I don’t have. Believe me, it works even if you have to dig in and think of the blessings you have 🙂

So, thought for my day……another day……another blessing!
