Good morning! And happy new year! Welcome to 2026! Are you one of those who needs some coffee to get started in the morning? Well, I plead guilty to that: I’m a two-cup guy! Now, a long time ago, I gave up sugar with my coffee and now use almond milk and a form of stevia called “Truvia” Now, the cool thing about these little packets here is on the back of every one of them is a beautiful little saying. Here are some examples:
- “Every moment counts.”
- “Create your own sunshine.”
- “Inspire others.”
- “Kindness is free.”
- “Live, laugh, love.”
- “It’s never too late to make a change.”
- “You are an awesome hunk!” (Wait a minute, that’s a note from my wife!)
- “Be you. Everyone else is taken.”
- “Don’t sweat the small stuff.”
- “Smile. It will catch on.”
What is your positive affirmation statement? What makes you glad to get up in the morning? Always remember: before leaving the house, or even if you’re staying at home: Thank God that you are alive, that you have the opportunity, the privilege, and honor to serve God, your family, your fellow citizens, and yourself. You are a vital part of God’s design for the world, so create your own positive affirmations for this day, another day the Lord hath made.
