Why God?

Leave a comment

The joy, peace and fulfillment we seek come from being filled with God…  – Joyce Meyer

god?

What does God have to do with anything? Everything actually, and that’s the point. God may be perceived as a ‘force’ or as a personal being. In either case God created everything and is not divorced from daily reality. If we accept that then what’s keeping us from making contact?

joy!

When we walk with God daily, know that he listens, can share our lives with him and not fear our future, then ‘joy, peace and fulfillment’ will be our experience.

How To Fly!

Leave a comment

You can study gravity forever without learning how to fly.  – Shawn Achor

negativity

We can be specialists on negativity. We seek to understand what can go wrong. We know why things won’t work out. If we were learning how to fly, we’d probably spend a lot of time on the science of gravity because we know it could pull us down!

fly instead

Let’s focus on the flying. We see others fly, we can too. Gravity is something that get’s handled. Problems and issues that we face will get handled too. Let’s just focus on our vision, our goals and what will make everyone around us happy!

Daily Affirmation: Today I fly!

facts

Facts can and do help. We must gather all the facts when we find ourselves slipping into worry mode! If we can stay objective the facts will allow us to discern how much worry is truly justified! What’s really going on? Are we jumping to conclusions?

Where Do We Look?

Leave a comment

What the superior man seeks is in himself; what the small man seeks is in others.  – Kung-fu-tse (Confucius)

chutzpah!

We often have the attitude that we know the answer. We know what makes us happy, we know what to do with our relationships and we certainly know how to figure things out. This despite many of us having a low self-esteem. Why is that?

humility

Humility will work better. Let’s be curious about life, and not be a ‘know-it-all’. Ask questions instead. And know that we have an inner-guidance system that will guide us unerringly, if we only listen. Guided from within, with an attitude of humility and staying curious about everything outside us is the way!

Why It Can Get Better!

Leave a comment

The better it gets, the better it gets.  – Abraham

the law of attraction

This law states that ‘like attracts like’. The more we appreciate what we have and feel happy, the happier we get and that attracts even more happiness. Let’s not forget that we seek happiness, ultimately, not money or goods. We seek happiness from our relationships and all other endeavors.

the imperative

We must manage our thoughts. We vibrate at the frequency of our thinking. We can manage our vibrations. If we do that we directly control our level of happiness. Takes practice but it’s very doable. Actually it’s not a ‘doing’, it’s a ‘being’! Let’s keep our attention and intention on being happy, that’s it!

Why ‘All Is Well’!

Leave a comment

You are loved. All is well.  – Abraham

nothing?

What if there was nothing? Would there still be us? Would there still be that witness, within us? That quiet, still, awake, awareness within us, that which sees everything, will always be there.

all is well

God, the ultimate reality, wanted to share himself. So she created us. We spring from that eternal source. We don’t die. If there’s nothing, there still is us. Our core is never threatened. All is well.
