Encouragement, Life Is Beautiful

Theocentric Thursdays Blog Hop!

It’s Thursday and I have the sincere honor of co-hosting a Blog Hop! This is my first time and I’d love for you to join me and this talented group of bloggers. You’ll find amazing support here. Read this post and find the info the bottom and join us!

Happy Independence Day weekend! Celebrate our liberties, our love, and our blessed freedom!

If you know me at all the last couple years, you know I’m a little into the idea of superheroes. Now, do I have a favorite superhero?
Yep. Jesus.

After him are people whose names you wouldn’t recognize. They don’t come in action figures. They won’t ever have a movie made about them. And unfortunately they don’t even have awesome superhero-ish names.

They’re just regular everyday people like you and me who do amazing things. Many of them aren’t even 18 yet.
I’m excited that this week’s featured post brings out a new superhero quality.

Before we jump into the featured post, take a minute to get to know our co-host(s) this week! Don’t forget to follow the host(s) and co-host(s) blogs and social media accounts!

This week’s featured post is brought to you from Marilyn Stewart at Looking Beyond Yesterday. Marilyn uses her blog to build a community where she can share her experiences with others in an effort to provide guidance and hope. Last week she shared with us a glimpse into one of the superhero-ish powers the Spirit gives us to call upon. Are we effectively activating our “Discern-men-a-tor”?

Make sure to leave Marilyn some comment love and share her post on all your social media sites! Let’s help her build that community she’s trying to build! You can also find Marilyn on Twitter, Pinterest, Facebook, and Instagram.
