PowerPoint tip: Don't use a font smaller than 18 points on any slide, and don't put more than six lines. Remember your audience has to be able to see it! (Thanks to Debora K. Thurston for the tips.)
Stay close to God. Do life well.

5 Minute Challenge
Feeling overwhelmed by a messy home? Don't know where to start? Try the 5 Minute Challenge. Set a timer for 5 minutes and stay in ONE room. (That is KEY.) You'll be amazed at what you can straighten and pick up. If you find items for another room, put those items near the door but do NOT leave the room. When the timer goes off, put those other items away. Then decide if you want to do this again in another room. You'll find that a focused, but quick run through of the main living areas, will perk up the home in very little time, and perhaps even motivate you to do more thorough projects!

Stolen on Saturday: From our Break Time Bible Study Blog
Your child's Little League team wins the tournament.
Your son marries a wonderful girl.
Your husband got a promotion.
Your mission trip team made a difference in another city or country.
You pulled off a surprise birthday party.
Your favorite NASCAR driver wins the championship...again. Well, maybe. (Yes, I like Jimmie Johnson but I think it's about time for another driver to de-throne him. Don't tell my husband!)
Your team gets the winning touchdown!
A friend you haven't seen in a long time is arriving today for a visit.
I bet you could easily add to this list. God worked into us the love of celebrating and having fun with life! Life is not always fun...but God is always worth celebrating.
The Psalms give us several means to celebrate God. This week, take a look at the following Psalms and consider what the writer is celebrating: Psalm 19, 43, 100, 112, 119.
Do you get at least as excited by God as you do by the above situations? (oops...that could be considered a Jesus Juke...)
Here's to celebrating God and life today!
