Kiss on My List
Β
I am a fan of the kiss.
Yep, I must admit that I look forward to joining lips with my man as much as possible.
His kiss is on my list. Β (Cue 80’s song here.)
To kiss is to displayΒ respect, affection, love,Β andΒ passion. Β
Imagine my surprise when a sweet friend gave me a Peanuts figurine that encouraged me to “Kiss another day hello!”
The adorable gift sits on my desk at work and reminds me that I must treat my day with respect, affection, love, and passion.
I am not promised tomorrow.
I need to be a fan of today. Β I need to look forward to each moment as much as possible.
Kiss your day hello, my friends. Β Make it sweet.
Something to think about…

Hugs, Linda. You made me smile. π
Every day is a gift! He has given us richly all things to enjoy, including a sweet kiss from hubby! Thanks for hosting & God bless!
Yes! I love that Scripture. Thanks for reminding me about it.
Every day contains grains of grace – and beauty – how can we not welcome the bearer of such gifts with a kiss? I love this!
One thing I have learned from my blogging sisters is to look for the beauty in my day. It makes such a difference.
I will never think of a simple kiss in quite the same way again. I love the scripture you posted at the bottom in the Message version.
Elizabeth, you are such an encourager! I’ve been rolling this post around in my head for a while now and wondered if anyone would really find this is as intriguing as I do. Thanks for the sweet affirmation. xo
You know I have read those words time and again… but today the admonition to ‘live a good life’ stood out. What does it mean to live a good life? That is the definition that seems to be hard to define for many, but for me Good is only connected to God and in that, living a good life is living a life that follows this wisdom to love God, follow Him and obey.
π Great lesson, Lyli!
Blessings,
Dawn
Yes, staying connected to Him through the Word is key for me. I can’t do today with out HIm.
Lyli, I read this earlier & have been singing the Hall & Oates song since π It may be stuck in my head all day! Wonderful post. I wrote on the concept of “today” yesterday & so this truly struck a chord for me. “Live a good life – today” by loving and serving Him with all we’ve got. Amen! And I love the photo too. Lyli, may you keep writing, keep sharing, keep teaching. You bring a great lesson! XO
Thanks, Joanne. I need to go back and re-visit your post again today. π
Great encouragement for today, Lyli! Be blessed!
I was singing the song as soon as I saw your title. I do love me some Hall & Oates. π
This is perfect for me:
“I need to be a fan of today.” My OneWord2015 is “now.” And this statement is SO now. Thanks, Lyli. Great post!
Yay! I am so glad that this resonated with you, Lisa. Have you heard Matthew West’s new song “Day One.” It came on the radio this morning and totally tied into the theme of this blog post for me.
I love the idea of kissing your day hello. I am usually up quite early…with the sun most days. it gives me the chance to kiss my day hello.
I’m actually a night owl, but one thing I’ve done recently that has helped me is that I created a morning play list of music that helps me rise and shine and give God the glory with intention. Worship helps me get up and face my day with joy.
