Do not let your adornment be merely outward-arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel-rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beaty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God. 1 Peter 3:3-4

We actually live two lives-the outer life (the one we show to the world) and the inner life (the one filled with the secrets that only we and God know). The inner life or “the hidden person of the heart” is the most important to God because it is the real us. We can pretend and show others anything we choose to, but our thoughts, attitudes, and intentions reside in our inner person–and these are the most important parts of us.

Our attitude has a lot to do with the kind of life we will have. Zig Ziglar said that “Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude.” A good attitude can take you a long way, but no matter talented or intelligent you are, if you have a bad attitude, eventually people will not want to work with you. Another important part of having a good attitude is to be thoughtful toward other people and take an interest in their dreams and goals instead of only expecting them to sacrifice their life to serve you.

God delights in a beautiful mind and attitude. Do your best to keep yours in line with His Word, and ask Him to help you in your weakness.

Ingredients

4 cups water
1 6-ounce bag of fresh spinach
¼ cup fresh basil
1 15-ounce can of cannellini beans, unsalted
1 14-ounce can of artichoke hearts, unsalted (or frozen)
1 clove garlic, chopped
3 ounces low-fat cream cheese
⅛ teaspoon sea salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ cup + 4 tablespoons low-fat, low-sodium mozzarella cheese, shredded

Directions

Before you begin: Wash your hands.

1.  Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. In a medium saucepan, boil 4 cups water. Prepare an ice bath in a large bowl. When water comes to a boil, add spinach and basil in small batches and cook for about 30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to the ice bath to stop the cooking process and retain a vibrant green color. Squeeze as much water out of the spinach and basil as possible (squeeze excess liquid over a mug and drink if you like…it’s full of nutrients!).
3. In a food processor, combine cooked greens, cannellini beans, artichoke hearts, garlic, cream cheese, sea salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl and fold in a ½ cup of mozzarella cheese.
4. Fill 4-ounce ramekins with dip mixture and top each with a sprinkle of remaining cheese.
5. Bake for about 5 to 10 minutes or until the cheese on top is brown and bubbly.
6. Serve with pita chips or fresh veggies.

For a cold dip, simply combine beans, artichoke hearts, garlic, sea salt, pepper, spinach and basil.

Knocked, smiled, vanished

Scott M. did everything right, or so he thought. A longtime Wells Fargo customer, he got a call that seemed totally legit. The person on the line knew his recent transactions. They said his debit card had been compromised and the bank needed to send someone to his house to collect it.

A woman actually showed up. Professional. Calm. Friendly.

She took Scott’s debit card, cut it in half right in front of his Ring doorbell camera, then left. Within an hour and a half, over $20,000 vanished from Scott’s account.

They hit up local ATMs at grocery stores, withdrawing cash like it was Monopoly money. Gone.

⚠️ Why this scam is different

This isn’t your usual sketchy email or random text with broken grammar.

These scammers:

Spoof real Wells Fargo phone numbers. Know your account activity. Sound exactly like a fraud rep you’d trust with your taxes. And yes, they literally walk up to your front door like they’re returning your lost dog.

By the way, this can happen with any bank. It’s not limited to just Wells Fargo.

💔 The cost can be more than money

This scam has claimed more than cash. In Florida, 52-year-old Paul Schendel lost $6,800 to the same scheme. He was told the bank wouldn’t refund him.

His family says the stress was too much. The very next day, Paul died of a heart attack. So sad.

👉 Here’s how to protect yourself

Never hand your card to anyone who comes to your door. Ever. Hang up if someone calls saying they’re from your bank. Call the number on your card to verify. Don’t be fooled by caller ID, scammers can spoof numbers. Urgency is a red flag. The more “immediate,” the more scammy. Don’t send money or share account details unless you initiated the transaction.

This scam is slick, believable, and it’s spreading.
