A Gift of Stress Relief

Today was great! I love my team even more than I did before. Libby is amazing and I got to meet Hollie today! We did regular staff development stuff, had a speaker, worked on schedules, etc. but Libby did the cutest thing for Hollie & me today. A bag on my desk with gum, kiss, smarties, starburst, snickers, tootsie roll, and lifesavers, along with these things came a sheet of paper with this written...

A stick of gum to remind you to "stick with it"
...but the Master never lets you down. He'll stick by you and protect you...2 Thes. 3:1

A kiss to remind you that you are LOVED!
Love & Truth meet in the street, Right living and whole living embrace and kiss! Psalm 85:10

Smarties to help you on those days you don't have all the answers!
...If you work these words into your life, you are like a smart carpenter who has built his house on solid rock...Matthew 7:24

Starburst to give you a "burst" of energy when you need it!
I'm about to burst with song; I can't keep quiet about you. God, my God, I can't thank you enough...Psalm 30:11

Snickers, because sometimes you just need a laugh!
A right time to cry and another to laugh...Ecclesiastes 3:2

Tootsie Roll to remind you not to bite off more than you can chew!
Instead you thrill to God's word, you chew on Scripture day and night Psalm 1:2

Lifesavers for those days when you need to be "rescued!"
...His love never quits. Rescued us from the trampling boot, His love never quits. Psalm 136:23

A bag to help you hold it all together and give you "food for thought!"
...Through the Word we are put together and shaped up for the tasks God has for us. 2nd Timothy 3:14


I am so blessed to be working with Libby, she truly is a God send! I love her and I love that she starts the year off right by giving us not only candy (which you know is the way to my heart) but by giving us these anchor verses to go into this year with. Thank you Libby! You are amazing!!
