Today is your season

Good morning fellow bloggers. It's Spring
And it's time to generate new energy in your life. In Romans 12:2 And be not confirmed to the world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that he may prove what is good and acceptable perfect will of God.

God did not make us to fit in. He wants us to be salt of the earth and show the light of his love. When we seek his face and study his word His thoughts become our thoughts and our mindsets are changed
 
As nature regenerates, Let us revive positive thoughts and habits. Each day constantly evolve into your best self.

Good morning fellow bloggers and happy tax day if you are in the United States.

I had to post this from OM. I wanted to shout from the housetops that its ok to just be you. If you have a quirk or character defect or flaw that is the way God made you. Embrace all the parts of you that you cannot change and pray and discipline yourself to change the things that you can change.

I will embrace my emotions and sensitivity. It makes me a beautiful creature who is able to flexibly and aptly relate to all types of people and love greatly. That is a special gift and is an asset, not a weakness.
I reinvent myself today because I refuse to live by another man or woman's opinion of me. If it is not the way I chose to view myself or more importantly the way God sees me it matters not what others say or do.
At the end of the day as long as I am pleasing to God and to myself and have walked in His will  in the end I will be saved. I hope and pray this reading will inspire and keep you when things don't seem to go your way.

Turn It Around
Laboring under a Label

Many of us find ourselves laboring under a label that has a negative connotation, but this can be reversed.

We live in a culture that uses labels as a means of understanding the world and the people living in it. As a result, many of us find ourselves laboring under a label that has a negative connotation. Unless we can find a way to see the good in such a label, we may feel burdened by an idea of ourselves that is not accurate. It is important to remember that almost nothing in this world is all good or all bad, and most everything is a complex mixture of gifts and challenges. In addition, different cultures revere certain qualities over others, but this does not mean that these qualities are inherently good or bad. For example, a culture that elevates outgoing behavior will label an introvert in a negative way, calling them antisocial. In truth, the ability to spend time alone is one that most great artists, mystics, and visionaries share. Owning the positive side of this label can lead us deeper into our gifted visions and fertile imaginations.

When we look into the lives of any of the great people in history, we always find that they had quirks and eccentricities that earned them less than ideal labels from the societies in which they lived. Many famous artists and musicians were considered to be isolated loners or disruptive troublemakers, or sometimes both, yet these people altered history and contributed to the world an original vision or advances in our understanding of the universe. If we can remember this as we examine our own selves and the labels people use to describe us, we find that there is a bright side to any characterization.

If you have been labeled, remember that all you have to do to see the positive side is to turn the label around. For example, you may be considered to be overly emotional, and the fact that you are perceived this way may make you feel out of control. But notice, too, the gifts of being able to feel and express your emotions, even in a world that doesn’t always encourage that. You might begin to see yourself as brave and open-hearted enough to stay alive to your feelings. You may also see that there are certain paths and professions in which this is a necessary ability. As you turn your label around, the light of your true nature shines to guide you on your way.

Overcoming Self Sabotage Part 2

Hello fellow bloggers.

I wanted to post this article because it spoke to me. Enjoy.


It’s easy to get caught up in our personal lives and forget that we have an obligation to be responsible members of our communities. For some of us, expressing this responsibility is so interwoven into our personal lives that it is simply a natural extension of who we are. Others may need to take a moment to consider how to be more responsible for the communities in which we live. For those of us who live in large cities, we can start with our neighborhoods. Anything we do on a small level will automatically ripple out into the larger system.

Communities thrive on the talents of their members, so one approach to community responsibility is to consider what you have to offer and find ways to bring that into your community. If you have a special gift when it comes to bringing people together, you might agree to throw a party or event once a year that includes the whole community. Even a small open house in an apartment building can accomplish a lot in terms of making people feel more connected and comfortable with each other. If you have a talent for organic gardening, you might offer to help people in your neighborhood plan their own organic gardens. You might be the go to person for neighbors who need someone to water their plants or care for their pets when they’re away. You might take an abandoned space in your community and galvanize others to help you transform it into a community garden or a playground for children. In an area where there are many homeless people, starting a soup kitchen or organizing a holiday meal makes a big difference not only to those in need but to those who want to help.

All holiday parades, picnics, and ceremonies started somewhere, with someone who wanted to give back to the community in which they lived. It’s not too late to propose and execute a new tradition in your own community, whether it’s a block party or an annual picnic. Your particular vision, gifts, and strengths are part of what makes your community unique, so as you recognize them in yourself, feel free to offer them to those who live in your vicinity. Whether your offerings are visionary or practical, they are the very essence of community.

Overcoming Self Sabotage


Hello fellow bloggers. Sometimes we ju take care of our bst and say and do stupid things. We don't take care of our bodies and we get sick because we were disstracted with others problems. I like this passage from the om course. ENjoy and be blessed

It’s easy to go through this fast-paced world feeling as if you are being dragged through your weeks on the back of a wild horse. Many of us go from one thing to another until we end up back at home in the evening with just enough time to wind down and go to sleep, waking up the next morning to begin the wild ride once more. While this can be exhilarating for certain periods of time, a life lived entirely in this fashion can be exhausting, and more important, it places us in the passenger’s seat when really we are the ones who should be driving.

When we get caught up in our packed schedule and our many obligations, weeks can go by without us doing one spontaneous thing or taking time to look at the bigger picture of our lives. Without these breaks, we run the risk of going through our precious days on a runaway train. Taking time to view the bigger picture, asking ourselves if we are happy with the course we are on and making adjustments, puts us back in the driver’s seat where we belong. When we take responsibility for charting our own course in life, we may well go in an entirely different direction from the one laid out for us by society and familial expectations. This can be uncomfortable in the short term, but in the long term it is much worse to imagine living this precious life without ever taking the wheel and navigating our own course.

Of course, time spent examining the big picture could lead us to see that we are happy with the road we are on, but we would like more time with family or more free time to do whatever we want at the moment. Even if we want more extreme changes, the way to begin is to get off the road for long enough to catch our breath and remember who we are and what we truly want. Once we do that, we can take the wheel with confidence, driving the speed we want to go in the direction that is right for us.

God's ways are not our ways.

Greetings all,

I want to give honor to God for all the things He has done. Second I want to celebrate the life of my baby nephew Dunson Tomyro Green who celebrated one glorius year on the 17th of January 2012, and my eldest nephew Christopher Green who is now 8years old. Children are our inheritance from the Lord and we are richly blessed by these two men children. lol. I wanted to begin blogging with some nuggets of power from my pastor, Nathan J. Elms in Charlotte, NC.

I will be brief, but I wanted to share a couple of things that we taught us this past weekend that impacted me in a positive manner. I always that I wanted to be perfect. No flaws, no faults. As I grew up, I experienced life. I discovered I am not perfect, according to the dictionary definition.

Thankfully, God's perspective of that word has a deeper meaning. Completion. Pastor Nathan said that God's creation was good and complete. That means I am ok as long as I obey God. The second thing that he said that we as believers need to have faith in the simple truths that He is able fix your situations. Clearly we aren't able to solve all of problems. But He can! Yes and amen!

Forming Judgements

Hello everyone,

I wanted to share this from daily om because it inspired me. Enjoy.


Most of us understand that when we judge someone, or someone judges us, it is a negative emotional experience. As a result, we naturally want to avoid being judgmental, but this gets confusing when we feel we have to suppress thoughts that could actually be offering us guidance. For example, we may meet someone new and suppress a negative feeling about them, thinking that we don't want to fall into the trap of being judgmental. Later, though, it may turn out that paying attention to that thought could have helped us take care of ourselves or someone else.

It is important to learn to distinguish inner guidance, and having an opinion, from judgment, otherwise we run the risk of not listening to our intuition and not allowing ourselves to form opinions. Inner guidance and opinions both help us to interact more intelligently in the world, so we don't want to throw them out in an effort to avoid being judgmental. Our intuition usually makes itself known to us in a flash, and often has a physical component—a flutter in our stomachs, sweaty palms, or a chill. When we use this information to help us navigate a situation, we always benefit. Similarly, having an opinion about a person or an idea allows us to converse about it in a focused way with intention. Listening to our intuition and forming opinions are both positive outcomes of our ability to interpret the information that comes our way.

When we make a judgment, on the other hand, we attempt to have a final say on whether someone or something is inherently good or bad. Judgments close us down instead of opening us up; opinions have a lighter quality and are amenable to change. Once a judgment has been made, there is no more conversation or consideration, whereas opinions invite further debate. Intuition guides us from moment to moment, but, unlike judgment, never makes a final decree. In other words, it is only healthy to be open to the information we receive and to allow ourselves to process that information. As long as we stay open and fluid, we can trust that we have not fallen prey to the trap of judgment.
