Are you ready to “get a grip” on your life? Take hold of yourself!
If you “dare” to take charge of your life and discipline in your thoughts- God will take you to places you’ve never dreamed of.
It may be a little painful to not always get your way; sure, it hurts at times to keep a good attitude when the bottom falls out.
I’m not saying it will always be easy. I’m not saying there won’t be a price to pay.
But now is the time to begin to focus on your life, you are never too old, nor too young.
Go for it! Go for that change of consciousness. Practice positive thoughts over and over again and again. They will develop into habits. Good habits.
I’m not out to make anyone feel queasy about their past! All of us have done things we raise an eyebrow over. (Boy can I give you a list!) But God has given us tools to help us accomplish our attempt at getting a grip. 2 Timothy 7, “God has not given us fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”
This simply means You and I have the ability to override our emotional and physical feelings. We have the God given ability to take charge of our lives, but, discipline of thought and self control must be claimed, they must be exercised.
Do you want to just dream or do you wish to experience your dreams?
Just what is the value of your life journey, Live A Life That Matters or http://susie1114.com/LiveALife.html
But how would you know what to change? Change can only come from within ourselves and as we change we view others with a pure heart and recognize everyone is doing the very best they can.
As any Kabbalist will tell you, find the behaviors you think are "impossible" to change, and you'll have your answer.
When we talk to people, we want to talk to their souls, not their reactions. By the same token, addiction (or any dysfunctional behavior) is also a reaction. If we wish to uproot it permanently, we must look beneath it to the cause level - lack.
We must find the lack we are trying to fill.
This week, we have the support of the cosmos to look beyond our behaviors and into the emptiness that fuels them.
A great exercise to get you started is listing the things that are hardest for you to change. Once you do, find moments throughout the week to sit with your list and think:
What is really making me act this way?
What lack is the behavior trying to fill?
When we open our hearts to God and open spaces within, spirit has room to move within our lives and create even greater opportunities than we ever imagine.
