Something Greater Is On The Way!

You Were Created For More Than This! There is a longing inside of each of us for something more than what we know or have. Given enough time, heart ache and let downs and we slowly learn to train ourselves to live the jaded life of low expectation, but still every now and then, the winter turns to spring and reacquaints us to the possibilities that have long slept dormant, somewhere deep inside of us. And we can’t help but to dream again…

What Am I? I am a soul, living as spirit in this body of flesh with a fully engaged mind, which offers me the human experience of learning and growth. And with all that is goin on between soul, spirit, body and mind there is still a yearning for something more. Something from some where keeps whispering: “You were created for more than this!” Just as the grass grows toward the sky, as water flows to it’s lowest point and as flowers follow the sun, I too, seek Spirit as my source.

Always Searching! This seeking of Spirit as my source, manifests itself in a sort of restlessness that has me jumping from one thought to the next in search of the something deeper and more meaningful that I know must exist. I have searched high and low, in relationships, the earning of money, titles and degrees, the accumulation of possessions such as material goods, houses, land, clothes and cars, only to find that the ego always lets me down and leaves me with more of a hungry feeling than when I began.

“Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father.” -John 14:12

Created For Greatness! I know in my core that I was created for greatness and that my greatness comes about it my being and doing what I was created for. The temptation is to always be distracted by the lesser, the more obtainable, the worldly, but I was created for greater challenges that are not of this world. I am not in this struggle alone, my Creator is with me and has given me help in the form of spirit, which many call angels, which come in all shapes and sizes, and from all directions in this life.

Live And Learn! As I learn to open my heart, mind and spirit to this supernatural help from on high, I discover and tap into the greatness and my body becomes stronger, my mind more filled with wisdom and my spirit more yielded to the guidance and strength that flows from the secret place of the most high and I take steps to become the person I long to be, so that I can do the amazing things I was created and gifted to do, so that I might glorify my Creator and bless my brothers and sisters, as I honor the imprint on my soul of the Almighty, by chasing after the yearning of my soul as I follow the path planned out for me since before I was ever born…

Everyone Needs Love!

The Bible tells us that God is love! It also teaches us that God loves us so much that He have His most precious possession, so that we might have ever lasting relationship with Him. God – Who loves us, created us in love, because He loves us and He created for the purpose of being loved by Him, so we could receive it and share it. We share it by returning it to Him and by showing it to others.

There are many ways to show love and many of them do not cost us a thing. We can share a smile, take a moment to listen, reach out and touch someone. Very simple things have the ability to have a huge impact, when they are motivated by love. Taking just a moment to share love with another person, has the potential to totally change the way their day unfolds and opens up.

We Need To Receive God’s Love! Receiving love from God and then sharing that love with others, creates a flow and this flow is what allows supernatural power to manifest itself into our lives and activities. We have the opportunity to be a channel of love and open the door for encoragement, blessings and peace to flow into and through our lives and into and through the lives of others.

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another. ~ John 13:34-35

Everyone needs love! It’s time to open up your body mind and spirit to receive this amazing gift from your Creator and as you receive it, turn right back around and begin to share it with as many people in as many different ways as you can and you will be amazed at how this will totally transform your life and the lives of many of those around you.

Receive It, Share It, Grow It, Repeat It! You will be glad you did!

A Fresh Start!

Everyday is a fresh start, an opportunity to learn from the mistakes of yesterday and live for a brighter and more rewarding future. So many times, we tend to get distracted by our past sins, failures and mistakes or disoriented by becoming overly anxious about our future and who we are going to be, what we are going to have and where we are going to go. We need to realize and accept that yesterday was an education, tomorrow is not promised and today, this moment is our opportunity.

Today is our fresh start, our new opportunity to begin again fresh, new and ready for blessing. No need to waste time thinking about “some day”, because today is the day. Our tomorrow is created by what we do today. George Bernard Shaw said: “Life is not about finding yourself, life is about creating yourself.” And this is exactly what life offers you, an opportunity to re-create yourself.

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. -2 Corinthians 4:16-17

Our thoughts are powerful and the way we think and the things we think are vital to our living the life we were created for. We need to learn to allow our spirit to empower our thoughts, so that our thoughts drive our body. Most people living in today’s world allow their body to drive their mind, which limits their spirit. Your spirit, mind and body will respond to your new way of thinking and assist your growing and living in the most positive of ways.

Open yourself to your infinite spiritual nature. When you open yourself to your infinite spiritual nature, you will almost immediately begin to experience satisfaction, joy and peace as you learn to live in the present by letting go of past tension and future worry. With every thought we think, we have the ability to re-create our lives by saying yes to new beginnings and the opportunities for blessing, growth and love they bring…
