WHAT ARE YOU THINKING? Part 2
In each of our minds, we have an expression through both conscious thoughts and subconscious thoughts. Conscious thoughts are those we are aware of; we know exactly what we are thinking about, it is present now…
WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?
We have an awesome power within each of us it is called our thoughts.
It is a force inside of us that we could use to elevate our life to the highest level if we choose to.
Our thoughts are very powerful instruments we can use to either create happiness and wealth or sickness and poverty. We can use them for good or bad, heal or hurt.
What are you thinking?…
HEALTHY LIFESTYLE HABITS Part Four – Pure Air
The air we breathe is a key component of a Healthy Lifestyle. My Faith manual states that in the beginning, God created pure air. He called it the firmament, which is the sky or heavens above that gives us the air we breathe. Air is that constant pressure that we feel around us. The effects of the air that is around us can be seen in many places …
HEALTHY LIFESTYLE HABITS Part Three - Cash Money
We all use and need money, that’s a given. However, money should never be used to determine a person’s self-worth. You are not more valuable as a person if you have more money. Nor are you less valuable if you do not have a lot. That would be unhealthy, and our focus is on being healthy…
HEALTHY LIFESTYLE HABITS Part Two – Soul Food
In the previous devotional I spoke about our spirit as our base, or core. What would the base look like on a balanced spiritual diet? What would be the most vital thing required for our intake? I believe at the base of the pyramid you would find Soul Food…
HEALTHY LIFESTYLE HABITS Part One – Your Core
Our style of living reflects the events and patterns in our life. We each have a wide variety of factors and habits that play a vital role: what we eat, what we drink, our level of exercise, how well we sleep, how well we manage stress and adapt to stressful situations…
INSATIABLE
What images comes to mind when you hear the word insatiable?
A thirst that you can never quench. An itch that can never be fully scratched, or perhaps an appetite for something that can never be quite satisfied.
What is it that you have an insatiable uncontrollable craving for? Is it food, money, power, prestige, a person?…
LEAVE IT BEHIND
All around the world, wringing in a New Year comes with many traditions, ranging from fireworks to food to festivities. It is easy to find people everywhere making promises, pledges, and affirmations regarding relationships, their bodies, their faith, and their finances. One of the more common popular traditions you find is the playing of the song, Auld Lang Syne…
SQUATTERS AND DWELLERS
I have found that Squatters and Dwellers can also apply to our thought life. We should be mindful of the thoughts that are Squatters and stay long enough to become Dwellers in our minds…
BELIEVING FOR DUMMIES
Believing works better for those of us who concede we do not know everything, nor can we. Believing means you just came to a place of Trust. Trusting in the unseen and the unknown. A place where we say I don’t have to understand a thing to believe…
ITTY BITTY FAITH
Sometimes just the very thought alone of asking for something can be a nerve-wracking experience by itself.
That is before we also consider the fact that we must stand, wait, and act like we believe it will happen, just in order to get it to happen.
Sheesh! …
Timing Tells Time
Time…Time…Time…
Many times, we don’t seem to give a lot of consideration to Timing. It’s as if though we assume that Time, will tell Timing when things are ready. It’s as if we believe that Time, is far more important than Timing.
But nothing could be further from the truth…
A FIGHT TO OBEY
What first comes to mind when you hear the word obey?
Do you cringe? Are you indifferent?
Or does some form of defiance raise up in you?
Perhaps an image flashed in your mind of an instance when someone was attempting to control you, and thus they required you to obey them…
