Core Values

Perhaps you've never given thought to what your core values are. Whether you've listed them, don't know how to put them into words, or it simply hadn't crossed your mind until now, it's a good time to evaluate them. Here's food for thought: most of us know what drives us and what makes us tick, our fundamental and foundational beliefs. Does compassion steer your day? Put some thought to the reasons you strive for success, health, love, and happiness. Determine for you and your family what you are doing to create and maintain the life you want and how can you do it better now than ever before. All for the glory of God.

I'm constantly aware that "I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me" Philippians 4:13 KJV, especially on those tough days. Realizing that daily keeps me focused. I'm totally enamored with God and all He is doing, all He has done, and all that He will do. Serving Him and His kingdom is number one. "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Matthew 6:33 KJV

I operate in the gifts that He has given me, through the beautiful, loving, and supportive family that He has provided, accompanied by the people & experiences first and then the education He allowed me to pursue and achieve. Don't think for a second that anything you've accomplished has been by your own merit, "you were bought at a price" 1 Corinthians 6:20 KJV. How I love others is next and then the last one is inevitable, success.
