Inspirational Nugget
Maya Van Wagenen is 16-years-old. When she was 11, her family moved to Brownsville, Texas. As a middle schooler in a Texas border town, Maya considered herself an outsider. “I always struggled with making friends and finding confidence,” she says. “I felt ostracized and bullied, and it was really hard for me.” Then she stumbled upon Betty Cornell’s Teen-Age Popularity Guide, a 1950s how-to book that her dad picked up at a thrift store before she was even born.
Every day Maya made notes about people’ response to her secret efforts. The results were painful, funny and profound, and included a wonderful and unexpected surprise—befriending and meeting Betty herself. Now Maya’s working on her next book.

Elements of Worship – Thought
Psalm 19:14 New International Version – May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.
Worship has elements as everything in the universe has what makes it (element). Our worship will first start through the thought or a heart of a person, before it will come to the mouth.
Matthew 15:8 New International Version – These people honour me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me – the words of Lord Jesus.
Our thoughts or hearts which emanates from our meditation should be fixed on the Lord; that way it is also a way of worship to the Lord; that is where it starts before it comes to our mouth or bodies, always bowing or dancing to a tune in the name of praise and worship
Confession
In the Name of Jesus, my thoughts are sacred to align to the ways of the Holy Spirit, amen!
