Insight for Today
Written by Chuck Swindoll, these encouraging devotional thoughts are published seven days per week.
A Better Foreman
A person is a product of his or her own thoughts. Thoughts form the thermostat which regulates what we accomplish in life. My body responds and reacts to the input from my mind. If I feed it with doubt, worry, and discouragement, that is precisely the kind of day I will experience.
