What Do You Consider a True Standard of Living?

This post supports a passion for a lifestyle according to biblical standards. The Bible outlines a standard of living that protects each of us. Based on the chaos going on in the world today with man’s objective to do things his way, we are totally going around in circles. It is a given that the world is progressing. But, to what end? There is a need for us to get back to basics. That may sound boring to some. At this point in my life, I would rather be bored than going around in circles. Each person has the choice to choose how they want to live.

This post is purely subjective. Here are some questions for you to ponder. Do you believe that man is body, soul, and spirit? Do you believe that the spirit man needs to be fed spiritually as well as mentally and physically? Do you believe in eternal life? Do you believe that the earthly realm is all there is?


Jesus is the answer. He not only died for the sins of the world but left instructions to boot. How about that? The biblical standard is about each person taking accountability for what they choose to do. There was a saying heard a couple weeks ago, “People act on what they believe and not what they know.” What do you believe? What do you know?

New Moves

As I continue to heal from surgery and do the work for my Master’s, I wanted to come to say hello. I hope all is well. Not sure if anyone else is challenged with getting everything done on a consistent basis. Time seems to get away from me. Okay, so the grandkids help with time getting away from me.

Work on one thing at a time and finish it. Sometimes I am all over the place, starting something and moving on to something else without finishing the previous item. Moving forward in the Master’s program is challenging as I deal with medical issues. However, this process is calling for me to glean things unimportant. I never knew how much I added things I didn’t need to do. I am also learning to prioritize. What’s most important to be accomplished today? As I answer these questions, things become clearer. The good thing is that God is giving me the grace to do this.

I would just like to encourage any reader who is challenged with that ominous to-do list to prioritize. I have accepted that I can not do everything every day. Days need to be set aside for certain things. That way I can accomplish excellence in what I do on that day. Boy! If I was only practicing this in my thirties. Back then, I had the delusion I was superwoman. You know what is said, “Hindsight is 20-20.” No fretting though. Got it now.

Last, but not least, make sure to get rest when needed. Since having the surgery, I don’t have the same energy I used to have. My body will tell me, “You need to sit down, lie down, or go to sleep.” I obey. Side note. With the heat wave that is all over the place, not just Las Vegas or Phoenix, but areas all over the place are experiencing high heat warnings, it’s best to make sure you are not only resting when required but hydrated as well.

Life Coaching

There may be a thought that life coaching is simple. That you do not need another person telling you what to do. This is what coaching is not. Life coaching is about helping another person get “unstuck”. Regardless of the area in which you are stuck, someone walking alongside you to make suggestions, ask the right questions, and motivate you to take that leap of faith is an important part of the journey. A life coach doesn’t make decisions for you. A coach helps you understand the decisions needed to move forward. As I move forward on my own journey, change can be daunting. I understand. However, nothing is impossible. 

One foundational principle for me is that you do not have to walk alone. My primary goal is to help you move forward. It’s not to make decisions for you. Should you need someone to support you on your journey, contact me. I am glad to help. I do not know everything, but I do know if there is an area I am not versed in, I will give you resources to help you get what you need. Let’s talk.
Let me be a bridge.

Be inspired, motivated, and excited about your life!
