Last updated on: January 7, 2024 at 5:16 pm By Kathy Lewis

Yes, Forgiveness Does Include Forgiving Yourself Yes, forgiveness does include forgiving yourself. 1 John 1:9 says: “Our God is a forgiving God. He is the first to forgive our sins and trespasses. And He reminds us that we must learn to forgive one another, too.

Yes, Kids Need to Know that They Matter Kids need to know that they matter to their parents. I talked to many teens when I was a volunteer at Communities in Schools, a non-profit dropout-prevention program. They felt that they didn’t really matter. Their parents showed them very little attention. The parents always seemed too busy to spend time with them. As a result, these teens spent a lot of time by themselves, feeling lonely and unloved. Feeling Loved is... Read more

It Was Time to Make a Career Change I spent about three years working as an on-site sales agent. While I enjoyed helping young couples get into their first home, I was beginning to think that it was time for me to move on. I admit that it was also obvious that the other on-site sales agents were still resentful of my success, and they gave me the cold shoulder. It has always been difficult for me to understand this...
