Philippians 4:8 Paul gives us a list, a daily list. He encourages us to live in unity, always rejoice in the Lord, wear selflessness as a cloak to be seen by others and be anxious for nothing. We’re to pray always with thanksgiving to God and take hold of God‘s peace, the state of a soul assured of its salvation through Jesus, a soul that fears nothing from God and is content with its earthly lot. Paul encourages us us to put away any ‘Stinkin’ thinkin’. Regrets from the past, guilt and condemnation and anxiety for things that may never happen. It’s as if God puts His hands on either side of our face, drawing our gaze to Himself. He tells us ‘Look at Me, focus on Me. I am True, honorable, just and pure. I am Love and Grace. Just breathe…’. The Holy Spirit trains us to focus on the goodness of God, even when things are hard and we can’t see the Him. We’re encouraged, reminded, to fix our mind on the things worthy of praise. It isn’t always easy. We imagine the battlefield, Flesh and Emotion are coming hard and fast against the Spirit. When they stand, toe to toe, the Spirit towers over its adversaries. Songs of Truth and of God‘s goodness flow from the tongue of the Spirit. Flesh and Emotion flee as another victory in the Spirit is won. Leaving the battlefield we find refuge, we’re revived, our strength is renewed. We know, without a doubt that our thoughts have more to do with who He is in us, and who we are in this world than it does with our perception of the things around us. Lord, it’s the helmet of salvation You’ve provided to protect our mind and keeps us focused on You. Thank You.

Benefit SSI and disability beneficiaries who let Social Security pull their pay data from The Work Number generally no longer have to report work increases at that employer By Elizabeth Blessing, Social Security beneficiaries who let the agency pull their pay data from Equifax’s The Work Number database generally no longer have to report an increase in their work at that employer. The relief comes from a federal rule that took effect March 3, 2025, and it covers people on Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and on Social Security disability insurance (SSDI). It is optional, and it works one employer at a time. For workers who live on a small check, the difference is real. A raise, extra hours or a bigger paycheck can change an SSI payment or a disability review, and a missed report can turn into an overpayment bill. The rule takes one of those reporting chores off the list for people who opt in, but it does not take all of them. What the payroll exchange does The program is called the Payroll Information Exchange, or PIE. Under the final rule published in the Federal Register on Dec. 31, 2024, Social Security can obtain wage and employment information from a payroll data provider, but only for people who authorize it. The rule says a beneficiary is not automatically opted in. Social Security picked Equifax for the job. The agency awarded the contract in September 2019, and the rule says Equifax was the only payroll data provider to answer the solicitation. Equifax’s database is The Work Number. According to the rule, the provider reports that it covers more than two-thirds of non-farm payroll data. Once Social Security receives wages from a participating employer through the exchange, the rule says, “an individual no longer has to report an increase in the amount of their work for that employer.” The relief also reaches increases in earnings and changes

Science confirms that the connection between a mother and child isn’t just emotional—it is permanently woven into our biology through a phenomenon known as microchimerism. During pregnancy, the placenta is far from an impenetrable barrier. Cells actively cross between mother and baby in both directions. A mother’s cells pass into the developing fetus, nestling directly into various organs and tissues, where they can survive for decades—well into the child’s adulthood. This biological bond works both ways: • Long after birth, real, living maternal cells carrying your mother's DNA remain integrated within your body. • In return, fetal cells migrate into the mother’s bloodstream, heart, and brain, leaving a permanent piece of her children with her for the rest of her life. Even when distance separates you, or even after she has passed away, a physical piece of your mother remains alive, breathing, and beating alongside you every single day. Did you know about the science of microchimerism?

The indomitable Ignacy Jan Paderewski was born on November 6, 1860. He was one of the most extraordinary personalities in the history of music. He achieved international fame as a virtuoso pianist, became a celebrated composer, and ultimately served as Prime Minister of Poland. Paderewski became one of the most celebrated pianists of his generation, and toured extensively throughout Europe, America, Australia, and New Zealand. But perhaps the most remarkable aspect of his life was his transition from concert pianist to national political leader. He used his international musical celebrity to advance the cause of Polish independence by signing the Treaty of Versailles on behalf of Poland in 1919. "Only Chopin was not forbidden us. And yet Chopin contains everything that we were forbidden." This profoundly expresses how Chopin's music became a repository of Polish national identity when Poland itself had disappeared from the political map.
