    Finding Balance: 5 Areas of Balance and Growth in 2021

    Finding Balance: 5 Areas of Balance and Growth in 2021

    As we begin the New Year with the hope of turning the corner, and settings our expectations for a positive and productive year, it is important that we focus on balance in our lives.
    All of our great spiritual traditions teach us that balance is the key to life.  However, so many of us live an imbalanced life and we neglect areas that are important to the life outcomes that we experience.
    To focus our efforts and life energy too heavily on any one area can create an imbalance that causes malnourishment and lead to negative consequences in other areas.  The purpose of this podcast episode is to remind us that it is important that we consider the whole of our existence, spiritual, physical, mental, financial, familial, and any other area that is important in our lives.

    Speak What You Want and Not What You Have

    Speak What You Want and Not What You Have

    Speak What You Want and Not What You Have
     
    Scripture teaches us that death and life are in the power of the tongue.  We are also told that our words are like a rudder on a ship.  Although a small member, it is most powerful in that it has the power to dictate the direction of our lives.
    But how many of us use our tongue, or our words to take us in the direction that we really don’t want to go?  How many times do we use our words to affirm where we don’t really want to be as opposed to where we’re trying to go?
    Let’s imagine this…what if you had the key to your future?  What if you could unlock your potential, immediately, and steer a new course for your life? Well guess what?  That's what your words do.  Your words help to unlock your potential and create the reality that you want.  Your words, are the key to the hopes, dreams, and desires that you have on the inside of you.
    Instead of unlocking the door to your present with sometimes reckless words affirming what you really do not want,  Use your words to unlock what you do want in your life.  Speak what you want and not what you have.
    Say I am healthy.  Say I am happy.  Say I am successful.  Say I am Loved.  Say that God loves me the way that I am.
    Unlock Love in your life with words of Love and not words of pain, despair, and hopelessness.
    Speak what you want and not what you have.

    Being Thankful

    Being Thankful

    As we prepare for the Thanksgiving season, I believe that it is important to reflect on what it means to be thankful and the ways in which we can express our thankfulness to God.
     
    To be thankful is to appreciate the many blessings that you have in your life while refusing to focus on what you do not have.  To be thankful is to be joyful where you are, and to decide against being mournful over where you are not.
     
    You know…being unthankful is like little kids who ignore the fact that their parents just took them to buy ice cream, but are unhappy because their parents told them that they could not eat the ice cream in the living room.  Don’t you realize that daddy just bought you the ice cream that is in your hand?  If you focused on that, you would realize the immense joy that is literally at your fingertips.
     
    To be thankful is to say thank you for ice cream dad, I don’t need the living room in order to be happy at this moment.  I have the most important piece of the equation.
     
    Likewise, we have life today.  For many of us, we have a roof over our head, we have family, we have resources, and we have LOVE in our lives.  We have Love to give and we have love to receive.  Let’s be thankful for that today, and recapture our joy.  Because when we are thankful, we re-discover our joy and that's what it's about.
     
    In addition to this…I believe that we should also think of those who do not have.  Jesus is constantly redirecting us towards the suffering and the needs of others.  Not to simply acknowledge them, but Jesus wants us to put on their shoes and empathize with their realities.  Therefore, it is not enough to simply be thankful for what we have.  We should give others something to be thankful for. 
     
    To be thankful is to be joyful, and when you are full of joy, you are the light of the world, and we are called to be the light of the world.
     
    Let’s be thankful this holiday season, and spread our joy at home and in our communities.
     
    Challenge
     
    Write down at least ten (10) things that you are thankful for, and share it with each other.  Share it with your spouse, your children, your friends, or your co-workers.  Invite others into your thankfulness circle and spread more joy today.
