Got Pulled?

Life can pull us in different directions; life comes with a lot of responsibility, but the key is to not get pulled to thinly.

Realize that you cannot be everywhere and everything at once, so give yourself a break. Manage your time wisely, and focus on the truly important things in life.

Enjoy your life!

Simply

Why does it feel like the simplest of instructions in life feel like the hardest thing to do?

Let me give you some examples.

Relax;

When you’re tense and every worry works on your nerves… you’re told to relax;  you know you need to relax and it seems like it’s an easy prescription, yet you find yourself struggling with being able to relax. How hard is it to simply relax?

Trust;

You don’t know what to do and everyone tells you to trust. It’s easy to trust, but we find ourselves constantly working over the issue in our mind. How hard is it to simply trust?

Let Go;

We need to let the past go because it doesn’t serve us, and we are told to let go, but we find our self once again retelling the same old sad song as if it was a broken record. How hard is it to simply let go?

Life is full of these examples of simply not being able to follow the simplest of coaching.

Relaxing, trusting, letting go, forgiving, or hoping can be applied to your life; it may come easy for others while a struggle for some, but the point is to never ever give up.

If you have to remind yourself a hundred times a day to relax, then simply do that. If you have to tie a string around your finger as a reminder to stop worrying, then simply do that.

Keep moving forward and stop looking back; I know that sounds easy, and as we have learned, sometimes the hardest things are the easiest solutions, but we’ve also learned to never give up. Don’t let the simply easy be simply hard…it’s that simple.

Scripture Sunday: Heard

John 11:41

“Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.”

When you talk to your heavenly Father, know that HE

 

hears you and understands your needs. Your prayers

 

don’t need to sound holy or lengthy, just genuine and

 

with thanksgiving!

Scripture Sunday: Full Grown

1 John 4:18

“There is no fear in love [dread does not exist], but full-grown (complete, perfect) love turns fear out of doors and expels every trace of terror! For fear brings with it the thought of punishment, and [so] he who is afraid has not reached the full maturity of love [is not yet grown into love’s complete perfection].”

 

Today’s Mantra

 

Say this over and over and over again:

I deserve every good thing this life has to offer!

Forward Friday

Kindness is beyond underrated. Act in a way that people notice and want to emulate. You never know how a simple act of kindness can bring life and refreshment to the person on the receiving end of your kind act.

Be kind today and watch that act forward itself…

Happy Friday!
