From Despair to Delight

By Terri AmosFebruary 11, 2013September 12, 2015 Categories: Terri's Blog, Walk with God Tags: coaching, heart, idol, thoughts

What captures your thoughts and steals your affections? What traps your mind and leads you to worry, fear and despair? If you are anything like me, at any moment, you can be bombarded with underlying thoughts like, “You must have the approval of others for your happiness!” or “You need a good reputation for your…

Silence is Golden

By Terri AmosJanuary 28, 2013September 12, 2015 Categories: Coaching Skills, Terri's Blog Tags: coaching, coaching skills, questions

We have all felt it. The awkward silence. The uncomfortable long pause in a conversation. Some of us can bear it, but most of us blurt something out to fill the void… only to miss an opportunity. What was on her mind? What was she thinking, feeling? What was going on inside of her? She…

Stop!

By Terri AmosJanuary 21, 2013September 12, 2015 Categories: Self-Care, Terri's Blog Tags: coaching, devotions, questions, quiet time

When do you stop? There is always something to do, something worthy of your time. Another Bible Study to lead, another meeting to attend, another woman to encourage, another event to organize… Oh and not to mention, another meal to prepare, another child to help with homework, another load of laundry to fold and so…

Do you have a Sacred Companion?

By Terri AmosJanuary 7, 2013September 12, 2015 Categories: Growth, Terri's Blog, Walk with God

I love the picture of swans. They literally journey with each other through life. They mate for life and they go on seasonal migratory journeys together! We each have individual spiritual journeys, but we cannot journey alone. God designed us to journey with each other, to provide safety and care for each other’s souls. Do…

Mary and Martha at Christmas

By Terri AmosDecember 17, 2012September 12, 2015 Categories: Terri's Blog, Walk with God

It’s Christmas time. Do you feel the pressure rising? It seems that I begin to feel the stress of the Christmas season as soon as the Thanksgiving dinner dishes are put away. Every Christmas, my desire is to make the season special for my family. I have this idea in my mind that I have…

One hand on the work and the other on a weapon

By Terri AmosOctober 21, 2012September 12, 2015 Categories: Terri's Blog, Walk with God

Nehemiah 4:17 “Those who carried burdens were loaded in such a way that each labored on the work with one hand and held his weapon with the other.” As Nehemiah lead the Jews to follow God’s call to rebuild the wall, they were mocked, threatened and pleaded with by family to stop the work. But Nehemiah…

My New Window Treatment Whispered to Me

By Terri AmosOctober 2, 2012September 12, 2015 Categories: Terri's Blog, Transition

I spent Sunday afternoon making a window treatment for a room in our new home. A wonderful message came through my newly crafted curtains. They whispered to me, “The transition is almost over. You are settling in nicely.” Transitions come in many forms… A house move, state move or country move, all of which I…

Virtues from the Pain

By Terri AmosAugust 16, 2012September 12, 2015 Categories: Growth, Terri's Blog

Recently, I have encountered a painful situation that I have come to realize is out of my control. I can’t change it. Yet, it is changing me. I am finding virtues being produced in me from the pain. I am becoming more courageous, more sure of what I believe, more compassionate, more forgiving, more humble,…

Get Motivated – Imagine the Future

By Terri AmosAugust 8, 2012September 12, 2015 Categories: Coaching Skills, Growth, Terri's Blog

I told a friend the other day that I was lacking motivation to study Russian. With life being so busy, it’s just so hard to stop, sit down and study. She asked me a great, future-oriented question, “What would you like your Russian ability to be like the next time you are in a Russian…

How do your life actions align with what is important to you?

By Terri AmosJuly 27, 2012September 12, 2015 Categories: Terri's Blog, Values

Sometimes actions speak clearly of values. For example, a person who frequently goes to the gym demonstrates a value of good health and fitness, a father who regularly plays with his kids demonstrates a value of quality time with family and a wife who affirms her husband demonstrates a value of a strong marriage. But…
