The #stclaircounty board and Mark Kern honor former board member and zoning board member Charles Frederick

The closed doors, the delays, whatever it is, keep the right perspective. It’s all good. God allowed it; He’s going to use it.

You can’t hang out with chickens and expect to soar with eagles. You’re going to become like the people you associate with.

Even though it may look bad, feel bad or be unfair, when it all comes together, God’s going to use it for your good.

Don’t make a judgment based on a moment. Where you are is not your final destiny. That’s just a season.

Sometimes God closes doors because we’re believing too small. Don’t get discouraged. God knows what He’s doing.

Just spent a refreshing, great 75 minutes with James Pirtle; he & his family have owned Pirtle Ice Cream in East St. Louis for 54 years.

People can dislike you without a cause. These are tests you have to pass. Stay on the high road. They don’t control your destiny.

Hope everyone has a great day! #ThoughtfulThursday
