Some of these thoughts are from my blog writing and come from deep thought and meditation. Others are from inspired moments at the grocery store, doing errands, or just living life as it unfolds. :)

The following 6 poems are samples of 5-line poems (gogyohka). For more, see post under this one ...

"Thoughts in 5 Lines"

In one gasp / the stars appear / as midnight clouds / sail off to bed / and night becomes electric

She feeling worthless /down to last drop of whine /when angels unite /to remind her /she's already been forgiven

Seeing through you / like a butterfly wing / against the sun / your inner light / shines

I love / that she knows / how to squeeze / a spark of sun / from every raindrop

As darkness paints night sky /angels weave dreams /of gold-spun light /shining a path /to your pillow

Infinite love / given by God / to you / just for being / you

Inspiration on the Go!

Grief is not a threat to your faith. You can have all the faith in the world yet still cry over someone who has graduated. Let yourself feel all that you can and love as deep as love goes. Grief tells you that you loved deeply. Faith is a promise that your pain will eventually be transformed into joy.

8/10/12

There is so much to get clear in a lifetime. One thing is that you don't have to try so hard. Stop beating yourself up if you are doing so. Just "be." Dance to your own music and sing the song in your heart. Be an inspiration by being strong enough to be unique.

There is a peace that passeth understanding and it dwells within your faith. To heighten your peace, strengthen your faith.

God doesn't wait for you to "get" His message. He waits with you.

Are you looking up at a challenge and giving it dominion over you? Or are you standing up and claiming a partnership with God that leads to success?

It's in the trust you receive the truth; it's in the acceptance you receive the miracle.

If you truly understood how much God loves you, you'd be smiling 24/7 and you'd share that cosmic wonder with everyone.

You were born for a reason. God doesn’t make copies …He makes originals.

Why try to be someone you're not? Take joy in You... God does.

Speak to the present. Thy will IS done is a declaration that you know God’s loving flow of good is alive in your life right NOW!

Instead of asking for circumstances to change, ask what lessons need to be learned in order to generate that change.

The deeper the rut, the harder it is to climb out. Do it NOW! Whatever "it" is, do it now.

Prayer is the easy part. Challenge yourself to believe. Belief is the energy that powers each prayer.

Give someone a gift today. Be patient with them - and be kind while doing it.

Affirmations are vital inner dialog. Say it, pray it and create it!

We have group learning processes because our lives are intertwined, but we don’t always learn the same lessons from the same challenge. We each have our own spiritual path.

We don’t have the right to change anyone else’s growth pattern…even when we want to so desperately – AND -even though we want it out of love for them. We can provide the love but only God and the individual can provide the change.

To Allow Time is to Allow Growth.

Real love is unconditional. If you say you love while trying to change someone, you are busier judging than loving.

My will is limited to my understanding. Thy Will is unlimited. So I pray, THY Will be done.

Good morning. Good happy. Good healthy. Good love. Breathe it all in and praise God for His grace

"Children laugh over 300 x a day- Adults laugh only 15." If laughter is the best medicine, no wonder so many adults are ailing.

God’s clarity sometimes arrives in a whisper. Fear is loud and pushy but insight often tiptoes.

I’m afraid to fall in love. Do you know the daring it takes? But if your heart knows my heart that well, I’ll ignite my courage and make your wait worthwhile.

We are all jewels. We are precious in God’s sight; we give value to the earth just by being. Sparkle today and consider everyone you meet to be priceless.

Loving doesn’t hurt us. It’s our expectations that cause the conflict. Love without strings to feel the joy.

When I'm in my garden I feel like I'm in church. The flowers are the congregation, the birds are the choir and God whispers His sermon through the breeze.

When I feel down and ready to give up, my garden reminds me that what's real is the peace I feel amongst the roses.

It's easy to be positive when everything is going well. But staying lifted when all around you is in turmoil takes well-rewarded stamina. Faith isn't for sissies!

Affirmations replace negative thoughts. Delete the sad and replace with glad. It's the fastest way to make positive change happen.

Frazzle me by trying to b what u r not. Dazzle me by being yourself.

Fear is the great abducter of faith. It's impossible to hear the gentle voice of clarity through the loud din of fear.

Even people who love each other have conflict sometimes. Remember to make your point without disrespecting the love.

Even if sleep eludes you, the quiet is good for your soul. Turn off the electronics! Get your info from God tonight.

Notice every little beauty in today; a sparrow song, colorful flowers, a child's view of life. Value all and see how prosperous you really are.

Don't let others dictate your beliefs. Listen Inside. Own your awareness.

Every day is a new chance to make it better, do it better, and love it better.

Maybe everything isn't going your way because God has a better way.

It's easy to give up. Making the active effort to pull out of yourself a faith that moves mountains, takes a deep desire for change.

Life is a spiritual journey. Work and play keep us busy but every day also carries the gift of insight if we open our hearts and minds to see, hear, and believe. It's inner growth and insight that gives life purpose.

Life is an inside job. Your thoughts feelings, beliefs and inner dialog do more to determine your future than school, work or relationships.

Grief means you loved deeply. No matter how positive you are, it takes time to let go. Cry until you're finished then rejoin the living cleansed by your tears.

Remember that you are lovable, too. Only accept a relationship that goes both ways. If you are not loved back, move forward.

When looking outward you might see a beautiful view, but when you look inward you see a beautiful YOU.

Faith isn't a thing you read about and mimic. Faith can't be faked. It's a spark of belief that triggers an unquestioning trust within. It rocks!

When the angels whisper you feel a breeze. Listen carefully. Yes, they're talking to YOU.

How can you expect to be truly loved if you are pretending to be someone you're not? If you want true love to find you, take off your mask.

To promote Peace on Earth, make your Piece of the Earth a better place.

New as of 5/22/11

What's your inner fuel? Love? Anger? Faith? Fear? Whatever fuels you also drives you to a similar destination. Anger won't take you to love. Only love will. Fear won't take you to prosperity, only faith will.

Disappointed? Do you try to control or whine about it? Or do you praise God for new lessons and move forward? My direction of choice is forward.

May you feel the Infinite love God has for you deep within your heart today. When you feel how full it is, you'll have to share it or burst! :)

A Japanese poem that begins and ends in 5 lines is called a "Gogyohka." I have become incredibly fond of this type of poetry and wanted to share some of my gogyohka efforts from Twitter poems with you (@ClearlyMeLuise). For some wonderful reading, go to Twitter and search for #gogyohka. You'll see some creative and unique contributions from lots of talented people. The poems might be funny, inspirational, dark, light, but all greatly inspired. For now - here's a few of mine:

It is / never / too late / to start / to believe

As if lost /I wander this life /without a map until /I open
my eyes to God's light /and see His design before me

Ever stronger / ever whole / every day I grow closer / every night/ I thank God

What you see /through a window / depends on the glass /is

Open window - so much to see / open mind / so much to learn/ open heart / so much to give

Why do they say / fall in love / with you I am lifted / to

PILLARS OF STRENGTH

2011-03-26T02:14:00.000-07:00

Pillars of strength are upheld by your faithful foundation of belief. Resist the temptation to muddle through with an unsubstantial shaky faith, for even a small wind could knock you down.

Build a fortress of faith. Discard the old wood of despair. Affirm that all is well and then stand behind that truth with both your voice and your actions. Do you want something good to happen or do you believe it will happen? There’s a difference. Wanting is needy. Believing is power. Draw on the strength of God flowing within and let it define your attitude. Stand firm in your awareness that all is well because:

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

(Phil 4:13)

Visualize the pillars of strength created by your deepest trust and STAND TALL THROUGH IT ALL.

INNER CALM

2011-03-25T03:56:00.000-07:00

With warm and loving attention to your needs,

God wants you to know…

There is a peace that passeth understanding that you seek and that is your birthright. The peace that passeth appearances, the peace that passeth daily news, the peace that passeth understanding is the peace that knows I AM always with you and I AM still in charge. Do you know that I know every hair on your head? Do you know that I am in the center of this storm with you? Without knowing it, you are growing closer to me. And when you recognize it, you are then able to grow closer to my own best good for you. I am your Father and I want all that a loving father wants for His child. Sometimes I have to watch as my child struggles. Sometimes stubbornness or lack of awareness causes you to postpone your highest good. But I am always right there to walk with you, just ASK.

Look at your life and environment. Look at your choices and priorities. Are they the kind that will allow me to fit into your schedule and lifestyle? Ask me to walk with you and I will – if you make room for me. If you believe. If you trust. The “ifs” in your life don’t indicate a provision for my presence. My presence is always with you. The answer to your “ifs” indicates whether you are willing to listen and follow and dedicate time to my Word. It is in your listening that I can speak. Fear is the great abductor of faith. Where there is no faith, there is no vision. Where there is no vision, there is no inspiration. It is close to impossible to hear the gentle voice of clarity and guidance through the piercing din of fear and doubt.

You are not alone as you struggle to build or rebuild all that is precious in your world. I AM with you. I AM your strength – accept it. I AM your comfort – wrap yourself in it. I AM your prosperity -your supply is unlimited. Silence the loud clang of fear and let peace of mind awaken you to your good. All that you want is already within you because I AM within you. My dear and self-shackled warrior, throw off the chains of depression. Free yourself to walk with me into your own lightness of being. Let the Light of God heal your wounds and refresh your heart thus bringing you home to your own indomitable spirit. Where do you go to find the peace that passeth understanding? You come to Me. Where am I? In YOU.

Prosperity Takes More than Money

2011-03-25T03:35:00.000-07:00

photo by C Fab

Prosperity isn’t a matter of how much you have but how much you appreciate.

How can you want more when you don’t step up to the plate to praise and thank God for every miracle that shines itself into each day of your life? And yes, there are miracles and blessings in every day. I could make a list for you but then I would be taking your job. Please let no one ever take away your awareness and replace it with his or her own. Allow yourself the time to listen, hear, focus and decide what is truly right for you. I have my own list. Make yours. Own your awareness.
In making this list don’t just be thankful for the big things such as shelter or transportation if you have them. Think also upon the little blessings that make every day unique. Think upon the sunset, the green light when you are running late, the laugh of a baby or child or loved one. Do you know how healing that laugh is to them and those around them? Do you realize what a blessing it is to be there at that exact moment and hear the sound of happiness? When you are there to hear someone’s joy, you are there in the presence of healing. That is the kind of appreciation you might consider when making a list of how lucky you are.

I understand that hearing someone laugh won’t pay your bills. But do you understand that it’s in appreciating the normally unnoticed gifts of Spirit that you reset your laws of attraction? If you worry about money, if you can’t pay every bill, if you look at the appearance of lack in your life, then you need to reset your own inner laws of attraction. You cannot change a problem with the same mind that created it. You can’t draw true good to yourself if it first has to flow through a solid wall of fear and worry. But you can draw it to you like a magnet by using the laws of attraction. Open the gates and let your good flow freely. Your own attitude holds the key.
You have created your life – both good and difficult – exactly as it is. Blame no one. Hold no grudge. A grudge is heavier than any solution. You can’t hold that grudge and hold the solution in the same hand. Open your mind and heart to release the pain and discomfort that has caused you to keep piling more weight onto your grudge. Forgive and release the very anger that closes you up inside and locks in your pain, effectively locking out your good. Once that is done with honesty and willingness, you are ready to make your thankful list. The list won’t help you if written through the limited mind of resentment, but it will help you when written through an unlimited forgiving heart.
Can you look around and see anything at all that indicates the order of the universe? Perhaps a flower poking through a sidewalk? Maybe a spider building an architectural masterpiece of a web? There is surprising joy in recognizing the Divine Order of the universe. When you’re in tune with that, you become attuned to Divine Order in your own life. Divine Order in your own life brings all that you need, when you need it. Ask daily to be shown how to recognize and express Divine Order in your life along with the prosperity it attracts.

This I ask with all respect. Do not wallow in your pity of self and circumstance. The law of attraction will keep you there. You attract what you believe. Do a check. What do you believe about yourself and your life right now? Reset your inner laws of attraction.
Appreciate not only the large and obvious blessings in your life. Appreciate the little treasures God provides daily. How can you ask for more when you aren’t thankful for the blessings you have now? In turn, focus not on the big things you see as lacking. Rather, focus on the opportunity to recognize the positive that presents itself with every hour. You don’t need to believe me as you read this. Simply take time to do what we recommend for a few weeks, then ask yourself if you feel the reset mechanism transforming your heart, mind, body and spirit to one who experiences the best that can be. All I ask is that you first recognize the gifts that are already here so you can move forward and create the new good you currently desire. Good begets Good. Joy begets Joy. Love begets Love. BE what you want to attract.

THE LORD'S PRAYER: one humble view.

2010-10-23T20:59:00.000-07:00

Note: Please let it be known that I honor and cherish The Lord’s Prayer as is and as it has stood since first taught in the Sermon on the Mount. ( Matthew 6: 9-13) and also as we read in Luke 11:1-4. This is not to replace what you already know or believe. This is simply an outlook given to me in prayer. Do not think I want you to replace your own understanding with this one. I ask only that you be open to any additional insight it might awaken.

Our Father

What is the most positive image of a father? He is always there for you. He holds you to his heart. You feel safe and secure and you know that you are always loved and always respected. He doesn’t put you down but forever pulls you up. Your needs are unselfishly met and he knows not only what you need now but also what you will require in the future. His love is unconditional. Use of the word “Our” means His love is for all of us. We are all connected as His children. God is now and forever will be “Our Father.”

Who Art in Heaven

Heaven, not meaning a place in the clouds but a consciousness that is greater and larger than our own small world of thought. God’s Love is Infinite. His Consciousness dwells in unlimited goodness, wisdom and truth and is not restricted by earthly misunderstanding or judgment.

Hallowed Be Thy Name

His name is cherished, honored and revered. Not because we are “supposed to” but because we truly understand His devotion, grace, and fortitude in loving us and being there for us. Hallowed meaning, “honored as holy.” We would never want to disrespect His name and what He stands for whether it be in our actions, speech, or thought. Our faithfulness and depth of awareness gives us the ability to love God, others, and ourselves as He loves us. In doing so we honor His holiness.

Thy Kingdom Come

His Kingdom is His Consciousness. His Kingdom is created by unconditional Love. His Kingdom is constructed with Forgiveness. His Kingdom has its foundation in Honesty and Truth. When His Kingdom comes to our belief, our deepest thought and what we create evolves from that understanding. When His Kingdom presents itself to your heart, open the door Let His Kingdom be a fullness of faith that you live in daily.

Thy Will Be Done

Our Father, let THY will be done – not MY will. How wise to turn our desires to THY will, knowing only happiness, good, and positivity can come from that choice. Many times His will is much greater than anything we ever dreamed. He is “Our Father” who wants to provide the best for His children and always knows what we need.

Our own earthly will is strong and often powerful. We sometimes call it will power. Our gift of free choice allows us to create what we want in time. But when you consider that God’s overview is farther reaching, wiser and more loving than our own, we realize that releasing our little will to the GREAT WILL adds more than we are capable of imagining into our lives. Our own human nature doesn’t always want what’s best for us. Remember, we are the children whose desires are often selfish and sometimes change daily. “Wants” can be influenced by environment, insecurity or greed. Even when they are triggered by a desire to help others, we can still have limited thinking due to our personal vision of life. God Our Father’s will always provides what is best, right, and true to our soul. Allow unlimited thinking to let THY will be done.

On Earth as It is In Heaven

On Earth (our earthly consciousness), as it is in Heaven (God’s unlimited consciousness). Let His will be done in our own personal lives in the same manner in which His Consciousness can be expressed in our personal thoughts and actions. Let our way glorify His way.

Give Us This Day

“Ask and you shall receive. Knock and the door shall be opened. Seek and ye shall find.” As we do this in faith, it will happen TODAY. NOW. Give us this day what we need. Not tomorrow. Not next year. Today. Remember that what we need and what we want might have different values. Are you truly willing to let Thy will be done? What you want might take time but what you need is given on this day as you live in faith. Live in the NOW and believe in your good right NOW. Whatever this day brings can be used to the good if you accept God’s Promise.

Our Daily Bread

Our daily nourishment: that which we need to not only survive but to thrive. He wants us to open our minds to recognize that our daily bread is sustenance and substance for mind, heart, body and soul. This day-to-day provision is a covenant to those who believe enough to recognize it. Our bread is not only our daily need but also our daily good. Accept (recognize) the blessing of His Promise to provide our daily nourishment of mind, body and spirit. Our daily bread fulfills our daily need.

Forgive us Our Debts (Trespasses) as We Forgive Our Debtors (Those Who Trespass Against us)

God’s Kingdom (consciousness) has many pillars (truths) that hold it up and one of them is forgiveness. “Forgive them for they know not what they do."

Dear God, forgive us our sins, transgressions, and wrong choices. Forgive us the debts we owe to others and to You that we haven’t paid. Whether it be money, time, attention, understanding, patience, faith, honesty or love, please forgive the times we have not chosen to provide these gifts to those around us. There are times when our actions or words are selfish or hurtful, yet we are forgiven by Our Father who always sees the honor deep within us and knows we are capable of more.

In turn, as we ask to be forgiven, we want to live in the God Consciousness that teaches us to forgive others their transgressions/sins/actions/words. Forgiving doesn’t mean condoning. You can totally disagree with someone’s words or actions but still ask that the God-Love in you reach out to the God-Love in them and forgive as your Father has taught by example. Some people say they can forgive but not forget. Do you think when God forgives us He remembers everything we did and holds it against us? No. His forgiveness is complete. When we truly forgive we forgive completely. There is no need to bring it up again and again to others or in your own mind. For us to forgive as God does, “on earth as it is in heaven,” we need to let go of the pain as well as the memory. True forgiveness is putting down heavy baggage and walking away free of the burden with judgment and resentment replaced by Love and Grace.

Lead us Not Into Temptation but Deliver Us from Evil

Life is a spiritual journey and we can trust Our Father to help us uphold our strength and courage to always make wise and faithful decisions. When we accept the beauty of changing our earth consciousness into God Consciousness, one of our needs becomes doing that which leads us away from harmful choices or temptations. Positive thinking and spiritual actions lead to the kind of prosperity, health, joy and love we want to create in our lives. As we remove the temptation to complain and criticize and feel sorry for ourselves, we remove the negativity (evil) that keeps us from our bliss. Worry is one of the biggest lures of all but when we replace worry with trust, the floodgates of good open themselves to us. You might think of temptation as being an addiction to a drug or another damaging activity. We are also enticed by habitual feelings of fear, anger, worry or greed. Guide us away from damaging thoughts and we will see clearly our daily good fulfilled

For Thine is The Kingdom and the Power and the Glory Forever

We have made these requests of You, Lord, knowing that it is Your Infinite Love for us that makes it so. Yours is the Consciousness in which we abide. We give you the Glory, Devotion and our Faithfulness forever.

Amen.

THE FREEDOM SONG

2010-08-28T16:22:00.000-07:00

We shall keep our freedom
We shall stay alive
We shall keep our freedom
I know we’ll survive

People join together
Each one take a hand
People sing together
Praise God for this land

(Chorus)
Freedom, Freedom
Liberty Bells ring
Freedom, Freedom
That’s the song we sing

We must keep our freedom
We must stay alive
We must keep our freedom
I know we’ll survive

Claim now our precious freedom
Watch our numbers grow
Claim now mighty freedom
Let the whole world know

(Chorus)
Freedom, Freedom
Liberty Bells ring
Freedom, Freedom
That’s the song we sing

Success Needs Inspiration - Experience Unlimited Resources

Your success depends upon your attitude at the birth of each challenge.

Where do you stand in your view of life? Are you looking up from the bottom and overwhelmed by the climb? Or do you begin every endeavor by programming yourself to success?

Ask God to be your partner. When you form a partnership with God you begin each challenge from the summit. When you ask God to be your partner, that Higher Intelligence is then able to guide and direct you into perfect choices and blessed contacts. You suddenly open yourself to inspiration rather than being motivated by appearances. You are able to see every situation through the eyes of wisdom and you find that each decision becomes the right decision. Faith is an open window that supplies a fresh breath of insight.

How do you do it? You release and let go. You let go and let God. People sometimes look at a positive person and think it’s easy to say everything is ok or to believe that all is working for the good. It’s actually not that easy until you acquire the stamina. It’s much simpler to give up and complain. However, have you noticed complainers don’t stand out because there’s too many of them to recognize their distinct unique qualities? They tend to meld together in a group voice of despair and the stagnation of inactivity. It takes very little energy to give up.

Making the active effort to release, to pull up and out of yourself the kind of faith that moves mountains, takes a deep supply of inner desire for improved circumstances. Asking God to work with you enables you to share unlimited resources. It is in you right now to do just that. It is in your make up and cell structure to better your life if you choose to do so. Are you looking up at a challenge and giving it dominion over you? Or are you standing up to every situation and claiming a partnership with God that leads to success?

You have free will and the decision is yours. If your choice is to ignite that inner power for good in your life and relationships, then begin right now to let go, and let it flow. When you willingly connect with the Highest Source, you link yourself to a world of possibilities never before realized.

Allow the power of faith to take charge. By forming a positive partnership with God you are able to place any challenge into perspective – and WIN!

EPIPHANY

2009-10-09T20:29:00.000-07:00

Are you going through a serious situation? Do you need to stay on top of things or else your world, or someone else’s, will fall apart?
It’s ok to laugh right NOW. Give yourself permission.

Does your life currently appear immovable? You wedged between two rocks?
It’s ok to soften your heart right NOW. Give yourself permission.

Does the world seem to have what you want, but you don’t have it? Are you pouting from perceived lack or slight?
It’s ok to smile right NOW. Give yourself permission.

For that which doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger…
(You hear it every day.)
For that which challenges you, makes you deeper.
And that which makes you want to give up, is often that which wakes you up.

WAKE UP!!!

Your dreams that slumber deep.
Your courage that has been hidden.
Your love left unexpressed.

MAKE UP!

For petty grievances.
For hours spent wanting.
For time lost in “why me’s.”

TAKE UP!

A new attitude.
A bold thought.
An old courage.

REALIZE

One can’t be healed without a healer. Connect to your Inner Physician.

One can’t be taught without a teacher. Connect to Master Intelligence.

One can’t be loved without being lovable. Connect to Divine Love.

“For God so Loved the World”… And you are a part of His World. Praise God in all things…. Including your birth.

"I will lift up mine eyes"…. Look up! Perk up! Cheer up!

ASK

And it shall be given.
And you shall receive.
And the door shall be opened.

TRUST

In your God.
In your Intuition.
In yourself.

STRIVE

To be faithful.
To be honest.
To be real.

ACCEPT

All things aren’t easy.
All things aren’t fun.
All things do work for the good.

YES!

You may be a tired soldier needing rest from the battle of life.

You may be temporarily out of the game due to illness.

You may be angry, sad, disillusioned, or simply afraid.

You may be joyful and filled with hope.

You may be inspired and ready to rocket.

You may be full of love and ready to share it.

Whatever you are…. You are loved.

Whatever peace you seek…you shall find.

Whatever rage that needs healing … it’s time.

It’s in the effort you receive the glory
It’s in the trust you receive the truth
It’s in the acceptance you receive the miracle.

Well done thou good and faithful servant. Enter thou into the joy of the Lord.

Matthew 25; 2

THY WILL IS DONE

2009-10-09T15:25:00.000-07:00

Photo by C Fab

There is no greater release or prayer you can say for anyone, or for any situation, than THY will is done.

Speak to the present. Thy will IS done is a declaration that you know, even right now, God’s loving flow of good is alive in your life and is something to be respected. Show respect for that outpouring of good by looking at everything in your life and offer PRAISE for it exactly as it is. TRUST that His will is already working for you and those you care about in spite of what appearances might indicate. No matter how much you want to change or “fix” a situation, your desire is not the only reason it will change. Release it to God’s timing and reasoning. He is the only one who truly knows which growth lessons are, or are not, completed inside of your soul. Instead of asking for circumstances to change, ask what lessons need to be learned in order to generate that change.

We are constantly motivated by how things “seem” compared to how we want them. God works in the reality of what still needs to be done on a much larger scale. The frailty of human fear often looks at the little picture of what we interpret and don’t like, while all the time God is looking at the big picture of what the soul is learning…and how much each one involved needs to keep processing until those lessons are fulfilled.

Situations can become a group learning process because our lives are intertwined, but we don’t always learn the same lessons from the same challenge. We each have our own spiritual path on this trek called life. Varied answers may come at unexpected times for people who are equally involved. All we can do is take care of our own releasing and trusting because we have our own unique needs. We don’t have the right to change anyone else’s growth pattern…even when we want to so desperately…. AND …even though we want it out of love for them.

When life seems the roughest and hope might be dimming, the most trusting and productive prayer is always THY will IS done. Speak to the present to draw in your good right NOW. Awaken to the inspiration that appearances are often deceiving. Trust that what might appear to be a troubling reality is actually an ongoing gift to you and more to your benefit than you realize.

“Worry is a form of atheism.”

Either we believe He’s got it under control, or we don’t. Choose to Believe. When we stop thinking we know how things should be…we get out of the way so our positivity can flow unencumbered. Usually the results bring more than we ever dreamed.

We’ve all heard the admonishment: “Be careful what you pray for – you might get it.” That comes when our prayers are all about MY will, not THY will. “God gives the best to those who leave the choice to Him.”

God is sad when we hurt…but His goal isn’t for us to stop hurting. His goal is for us to keep growing closer to Him because that’s where the ultimate happiness lies. When we let go of the fears and hurts we hold on to because of appearances…and release them to Him…it’s a positive move in the right direction. The closer we get, the less pain we experience. He doesn’t lessen the pain for us just because that’s what we want. The pain lessens because we make a personal choice to step closer…trust… and lovingly affirm the ultimate prayer… THY will IS done.

You … Just You…

without even one ounce of worldly

accomplishment … would still be a

treasure to this earth.

God let YOU be

born for a reason.

He doesn’t make copies …

He makes originals.

Every Heart Needs Time to Renew

2009-09-30T01:33:00.000-07:00

Every heart needs time to renew;

every soul needs time to rest.

Every mind needs to relax sometime

To realize how much it’s blessed.
