Becoming One With God

Feelings

2011-09-17T05:00:00.001-05:00

Feelings like disappointment, embarrassment, irritation, resentment, anger, jealousy and fear, instead of being bad news, are actually very clear moments that teach us where it is that we are holding back. They teach us to perk up and lean in when we are feel we'd rather collapse and back away. They're like messengers that show us, with terrifying clarity, exactly where we're stuck. This very moment is the perfect teacher, and lucky for us, it's with us wherever we are.

~Pema Chodron~

Power Thought of The Day

2011-03-19T10:00:00.002-05:00

To be kind, honest and have positive thoughts; to forgive those who harm us and treat everyone as a friend; to help those who are suffering and never to consider ourselves superior to anyone else; even if this advice seems rather simplistic, make the effort of seeing whether by following it you can find greater happiness.

~Dalai Lama~

For You

2011-03-19T03:00:00.000-05:00

The heart is in direct communication with the human soul, and when the heart speaks, even with the resistance of the head, something inside you changes. Your heart opens another heart, and true love is
possible.

~ Don Miguel Ruiz~

Power Thought of The Day

2011-03-08T05:00:00.001-05:00

Miracles occur as involuntary effects of a loving personality, an invisible force that emanates from someone whose conscious intention is to give and receive love. As we relinquish the fears that block the love within us, we become God's instruments. We become His miracle workers.

~Marianne Williamson~

Some Friends are Forever

2011-03-01T05:00:00.000-05:00

"Sometimes in life, you find a special friend. Someone who changes your life just by being part of it. Someone who makes you laugh until you can't stop. Someone who makes you believe that there really is good in the world. Someone who convinces you that there really is an unlocked door just waiting for you to open it. This is forever friendship. When you're down and the world seems dark and empty, your forever friend lifts you up in spirit and makes that dark and empty world suddenly seem bright and full. Your forever friend gets you through the hard times, the sad times and the confused times. If you turn and walk away, your forever friend follows. If you lose your way, your forever friend guides you and cheers you on. Your forever friend holds your hand and tells you that everything is going to be okay. And if you find such a friend, you feel happy and complete because you need not worry. You have a forever friend, and forever has no end......."

A New Year's Poem

2011-01-06T15:41:00.000-05:00

Instead of making a New Year's resolution
Consider committing to a biblical solution
Your promises are easily broken
Empty words, though earnestly spoken
But God's Word transform the soul
By His Holy Spirit making you whole
As you spend time alone with Him
He will change you from within

~Mary Fairchild~

It has been a long time : ), I'm wishing you a very Happy and Blessed New Year, filled with God's Wonderful, Awesome Love and His Richest Blessings.....I know you will find joy in all He has in store for you....Peace and lots of Love ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

"Rely on yourself, and be true to who you are. What's unique about you is what will take you far. Don't look to others....to say you're okay. You know it---so believe it!---show your own self the way."

2010-10-04T05:08:00.000-05:00

If something makes your heart sing, that's God's way of telling you it's a contribution He wants you to make. Sharing our gifts is what makes us happy. We're most powerful and God's power is most apparent on the earth, when we are happy.

~Marianne Williamson

Your Beliefs

2010-09-23T10:00:00.001-05:00

You never have to settle for 'playing the cards you were dealt.' Because your beliefs influence your choices, everything in your life, including how you earn a living, how much money you generate, and how fulfilled you feel, is a reflection of your inner landscape of beliefs. Your life results from your intentions, imagination, and willingness to let Divine Spirit flow through you and your endeavors.

Try doing something "old world" neighborly. Invite people over for coffee. If someone's ill, bring them some soup. Those sorts of simple acts will create a community of support and affection that enrich everyone involved.

"I pray not to judge you. I wish to let you be who you are, who you dream of being. I will just be beside you and watch you grow, and the day will come for sure when we'll know why our paths have crossed this way. Until then my friend, be who you must be."

A friend is one that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts what you have become, and still, gently allows you to grow.

~William Shakespeare~

Thought For You

2010-09-15T17:00:00.005-05:00

Once you have learned a particular lesson, you will see the way out: either you change and then the situation does not exist; or you leave the situation; or the the other person changes; or sometimes outside help might come. The final solution is to put it in God's Hands; await His grace and mercy.

~Swami Amar Jyoti~

Relationships

2010-09-15T15:00:00.003-05:00

Celebrate every relationship you have ever had. For better or worse, our relationships are our best teachers. And on a soul level, we've attracted each and every one of them so we can learn and grow.

~Christiane Northrup~

Trust In The Lord

2010-09-15T13:00:00.003-05:00

But Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in Him. He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.

~Jeremiah 17:7-8~

Power Thought of The Day

2010-09-15T10:00:00.000-05:00

The simple recognition that everyone else wants to be happy and not to suffer, just as I do, serves as a constant reminder against selfishness and partiality. It reminds us there is little to be gained from being kind and generous while hoping to win something in return. Actions motivated by a desire to earn a good name for ourselves are still selfish, even if they appear to be acts of kindness.

~Dalai Lama~

Perform Anonymous Acts of Kindness

Anonymously perform acts of kindness, expecting nothing in return, not even a thank-you. The universal, all creating Spirit responds to acts of kindness with the response: "How may I be kind to you?"

~Dr. Wayne Dyer~

Motivational Thought

2010-09-12T18:00:00.001-05:00

Your true self is independent of likes and dislikes. This is called equanimity, and when you become equanimous, you love. If you are blessed to do this, you will see the whole world will love you.

2010-09-12T16:38:00.000-05:00

People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.

~Elisabeth Kübler-Ross~

Motivational Thought

2010-09-11T13:38:00.001-05:00

The greatest life one can have is of service. Give joy, happiness, bliss, laughter, wisdom, prosperity, love & light to others. By doing so, you tap into the Infinite Source within ensuring that you will never have to do without these "treasures yourself."

~Lateef Warnick~

Power Thought of The day

2010-09-11T11:16:00.000-05:00

Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strength. When you go through hardship and decide not to surrender, that is strength.

~Arnold Schwarzenegger~

Power Thought of The day

2010-09-06T11:58:00.000-05:00

The best way to not feel hopeless is to get up and do something. Don't wait for good things to happen to you. If you go out and make some good things happen, you will fill the world with hope, you will fill yourself with hope.

~Barack Obama~

Motivational Thought

2010-09-05T15:18:00.000-05:00

Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away.

~Dinah Craik~
Oh, the comfort

Power Thought of The Day

2010-08-23T15:11:00.000-05:00

To surrender to God means to let go and just love. By affirming that love is our priority in a situation, we actualize the Power of God. We literally use our minds to co-create with Him.

We all possess the thunder of pure fury and the calm breeze of tranquility. If it wasn't for tomorrow, how much would we get done today? Whatever your purpose........embrace it completely. Get lost in the clouds every now and then so you never lose sight of God's wonder.

You

2010-08-17T14:46:00.000-05:00

You are goodness and mercy and compassion and understanding. You are peace and joy and light. You are forgiveness and patience, strength and courage, a helper in time of need, a comforter in time of sorrow, a healer in time of inquiry, a teacher in times of confusion. You are the deepest wisdom and the highest truth; the greatest peace and the grandest love. You are these things. And in moments of your life you have known yourself as these things. Choose now to know yourself as these things always.

Important Words About Spiritual Gifts, Serving God in Everything!

2010-08-16T10:54:00.001-05:00

Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God. If anyone serves he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To Him be the Glory and the Power for ever and ever. Amen.

~1 Peter 4 : 9-11~

2010-08-11T10:00:00.000-05:00

At the highest level of our being we don't do anything. We are at rest when the power of God works through us. Meditation is a profound relaxation. The ego's frantic voice, its vain imaginings, are burned away.

Please think about the ways in which your own thoughts, conversations, actions, and intentions can impact others in a positive way.....because that's what life on this planet is all about.

~Louise Hay~

Power Thought of The Day

2010-08-09T18:34:00.000-05:00

The more you fulfill selfish motives and suppress sincerity, the more the heart becomes closed. But if you employ sincerity to the fullest extent, irrespective of results, the heart opens. The openness leads to pure devotion. God listens to that open heart.

~Swami Amar Jyoti~

Power Thought of The Day

2010-08-07T09:00:00.001-05:00

Here is a magical secret we all need to know: People change. No one is stuck who chooses not to be. No one is without infinite potential for a radical turnaround from all that is unconscious and fearful and weak to all that is conscious and loving and strong.

~Marianne Williamson~

Motivational Thought

2010-08-05T10:51:00.000-05:00

When you demand nothing of the world, nor of God, when you want nothing, seek nothing, expect nothing, then the supreme state will come to you uninvited and unexpected.

Negative Emotions In Intimacy

2010-08-04T15:48:00.000-05:00

Negative emotions have a place in intimacy. They need to be released in order to be detoxed. Having negative emotions doesn't make us bad. Thinking that they do is what keeps so many people from exposing their emotions. It is when our feelings --- all our feelings --- are revealed appropriately and then forgiven that we have a chance to heal.

~Marianne Williamson~

Motivational Thought

2010-08-04T10:00:00.000-05:00

Everybody can be great.....because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.

~Martin Luther King, Jr.~

Power Thought of The Day

2010-08-04T05:00:00.001-05:00

Grace is always there. Learn how to approach God, how to love Him. Do not hide yourself before God. Not that He cannot see us. I have always said He sees us, always He sees us. But when we hide we feel as if God is not seeing us. It is putting a hand on our eyes and saying "sun is not there." Just remove the hand, you will see the Light.

~Swami Amar Jyoti~

Good Friends

2010-08-02T15:00:00.000-05:00

Good friends are like stars, you don't always see them, but you always know they are there!

Motivational Thought

2010-08-02T10:00:00.001-05:00

Don´t be unnecessarily burdened by the past. Go on closing the chapters that you have read; there is no need to go back again and again. And never judge anything of the past from the new perspective that is arriving, because the new is new, incomparably new and the old was right in its own context, and the new is right in its own context, and they are incomparable.

~Osho~

Power Thought of The Day

2010-08-02T05:00:00.001-05:00

Therefore as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.

~Colossians 3:12-13~

Power Thought of The Day

2010-07-24T16:05:00.000-05:00

You don't develop courage by being happy in your relationships everyday. You develop courage by surviving difficult times and challenging adversity.

~Epicurus~

Courage and Confidence

2010-07-23T11:14:00.000-05:00

With courage and confidence, let our lives confirm the highest and best qualities we know we have. And with that, we can avoid the heed to prove those qualities to anyone. Like putting together the ingredients of a cake---if you put together love, courage and happiness, you will get a great life---every time

Healing

2010-07-14T11:13:00.000-05:00

A proverb reminds us that where there is smoke, there is fire. In the same way, where there is disease, there also you will find healing. If healing appears to come from outside you, it is only because you have also joined your own inner power of healing with it.

~Swami Amar Jyoti~

Power Thought of The Day

2010-07-14T05:00:00.000-05:00

"Here are some jewels describing what love is, from the perspective of a group of four- to eight-year-olds:
When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just know your name is safe in their mouth.
Love is when you go out and eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give... you any of theirs.
And my favorite...
Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen.
There you have it. Look within and around. Listen...love is an endless source."

~Excerpt from Being in Balance. Dr. Wayne Dyer~

Stop Judging Yourself

2010-07-13T15:00:00.000-05:00

"Give yourself the compassion you deserve for any and all past actions. Stop judging yourself harshly. All those errors and wrong actions were necessary for you to get beyond that place in your life. Be kind to yourself and eliminate any ill feelings you harbor toward yourself." - Dr. Wayne Dyer

Devotion to God

2010-07-13T10:00:00.001-05:00

God does not refuse souls who are devotees. He is the devotee of devotees. Have pure and selfless devotion. Let the vision of God be your only motivation. With pure devotion you can call upon Him to become incarnate, you can call upon Him to become embodied at any time. This is a very open promise. Whosoever has true devotion to God is entitled to see God.

~Swami Amar Jyoti~

Life is good, and so it is!

~Louise Hay~

Power Thought of The Day

2010-07-10T13:27:00.000-05:00

Judgment is ugly — it hurts people. On the one hand you go on hurting them, and wounding them, and on the other hand you want their love, their respect. It is impossible. You love them, respect them, and perhaps your love and respect may help them to change many of their weaknesses, many of their failures — because love will give them new energy, a new meaning, a new strength.

~Osho~

Power Thought of The Day

2010-07-02T16:00:00.002-05:00

"The power to love is God's greatest gift to mankind, for it will never be taken from the Blessed one who loves."

~Kahlil Gibran~

Power Thought of The Day

2010-07-01T11:20:00.000-05:00

The key to empowerment, personal and collective, is the understanding that although darkness stalks light, the light will always reassert itself,. No matter what is happening, the universe is invested in healing. God always has the final say.

~Marianne Williamson~

Love

2010-06-28T10:42:00.000-05:00

Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead. The consciousness of loving and being loved brings a warmth and richness to life that nothing else can bring.

~Oscar Wilde~

Power Thought of The Day

2010-06-27T15:26:00.000-05:00

Life shows itself according to the way you look at it - not so much through your surface mind, but more importantly through your subconscious mind. Perception and creation go together. Change your outlook on life in this deeper sense, and life will change. Look at life through Divine eyes and it will be a Life Divine. How to change your outlook? By first agreeing that you do not have to persist as you are. Take this firm decision, and have an unwavering and unshakable faith in what you want to become. The Divine outlook cannot be developed without dedicating yourself unto the Divine. You cannot play with the life as you are. Life is a creation by the Divine - and it has to be lived that way.

~Swami Amar Jyoti~

Gratitude

2010-06-26T20:49:00.000-05:00

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.

~Melody Beattie~

Be Kind

2010-06-25T09:29:00.000-05:00

Treat yourself and others with kindness when you eat, exercise, play, work, love, and everything else. When you think, feel, and act kindly, you hasten your ability to connect to the power of intention.

~Dr. Wayne Dyer~

Power Thought of The Day

2010-06-24T10:55:00.000-05:00

The process of personal growth isn't always easy. We must face our own ugliness. We often must become painfully aware of the unworkability of a pattern before we're willing to give it up. It often seems, in fact, that our lives get worse rather than better when we begin to work deeply on ourselves.

~Marianne Williamson~

Whenever You Are Having A Bad Day, Try This

2010-06-22T12:21:00.000-05:00

Next time you start having a bad day, stop everything. Notice what you've been thinking. Bring yourself into the present moment. Touch the fabric on your clothing. Run your hand over a smooth surface. Breathe fully. Choose one thing to be grateful for. This simple act normalizes blood pressure, heart rate, and breathing - and will turn a bad day into a good one.

~Dr. Christiane Northrup~

Work First On You

2010-06-21T10:44:00.000-05:00

Work first on you. We have to see ourselves in order to change ourselves. Am I selfish or selfless? Am I untruthful at times or not?

Do I hurt others thru my selfish motives? Am I more peaceful, loving and free, and nearer to God and Truth than I was 10 yrs ago? Do I have a deeper understanding of myself or have I simply been accumulating more? Is my way of living in tune with my Spirit?

~Swami Amar Jyoti~

Never Look Down On Anybody

Friend

2010-06-17T11:21:00.001-05:00

A friend will see us at our worst, as well as at our best. A friend will not close his or her heart when we have made a mistake. A friend will not condemn us but will compassionately support our return to a state of grace.

~Marianne Williamson~

Radiate Serenity and Peace

2010-06-16T16:29:00.000-05:00

Welcome every morning with a smile. Look on the new day as another special gift from your Creator, another golden opportunity to complete what you were unable to finish yesterday. Be a self-starter. Let your first hour set the theme of success and positive action that is certain to echo through your entire day. Today will never happen again. Don't waste it with a false start or no start at all. You were not born to fail.

The lessons we have begun to learn make me hopeful that human beings will become friendlier, more harmonious, less harmful. Compassion and the seeds of peace will be able to flourish. Every individual is responsible to help guide our global family in the right direction. Good wishes alone are not enough; we have to take responsibility. Large human movements spring from individual human initiatives.

Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play, and you will finally be able to move forward the life that God intended for you with grace, strength, courage and confidence.

When God is pleased with you, nothing is a problem for you: whether you accomplish much or little, or nil, you will feel satisfied. Be what He wants you to be; that will please Him.

Jamaica Land We Love

2010-05-26T13:37:00.001-05:00

I made this video specially for you! Please enjoy. :)

A mixture of thoughts and feelings fill us all: fear for those standing in harm's way, worry about the possible length of this conflict, concern for our own personal safety and that of our loved ones. As people of faith and citizens of this beautiful island, peace and safety is indeed our deepest desire: peace for our hearts, peace for our island--Jamaica Land We Love; therefore let us call upon the God of our faith to be with us during this time, making peace our constant prayer, to the One who alone can bring peace that endures.

For God will speak peace to the people, to those who turn to God in their hearts.

God of Peace and Love, in Your hands are all the people of this world: the prideful, the needy, the arrogant, the lost, the high, the lowly, the entitled, the dispossessed, the loved and the unloved, the blessed and the not so blessed, and even we too seeking Your comfort, seeking Your aid in our time of conflict and warring. For all our divisions and divisiveness, we must acknowledge that in Your hands, we truly are just one people, one flesh, one blood, created by You. You alone O' God can curb the passions that take us from You and turn us upon each other. You alone can save us from ourselves through Your great love for us.

For all the children of the world.....

A hundred years from now...it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove....but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child.

You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total of this world's happiness now. How? By giving a few words of sincere appreciation to someone who is lonely or discouraged. Perhaps you will forget tomorrow the kind words you say today, but the recipient may cherish them over a lifetime.

~Dale Carnegie~

Treating Others with Care and Attention

2010-05-14T12:45:00.000-05:00

I wanted to share this beautiful anecdote with you, having practiced this too all throughout my life. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did :-)

During my second year of nursing school school our professor gave us a quiz. I breezed through the questions until I read the last one: "What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?" Surely this was a joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times, but how would I know her name? I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank. Before the class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward our grade. "Absolutely," the professor said. "In your careers, you will meet many people. All are significant. They deserve your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say hello." I've never forgotten that lesson. I also learned her name was Dorothy.

Without forgiveness, love has no meaning. We must always pray to see the truth about a relationship: not just our truth but God's truth. "May God's will be done, not my own" is the prayer for ultimate fulfillment, because it seeks an emotionally higher ground than the fulfillment of our immature desires.

~Marianne Williamson~

Pray for your friends, but by all means, pray for your enemies. And don't pray that they"ll change; pray that you might change--from an accusatory mind to a loving one.

Strength

2010-05-03T09:13:00.002-05:00

When your strength is failing,

And you are faltering in your faith,

Pause for a moment, take a deep breath,

And God your Father who is the source of your strength, will refresh and re-kindle your faith.

Remember the battle is not yours,

It is the Lord's battle and He is fighting for you.

Don't ever forget to wait on the Lord.

God will continually give you strength to overcome every trial, and sustain you in your weakest moments.

~Margaret C. Mullings~

Thank You, God for Everything

2010-05-02T11:39:00.001-05:00

Thank You, God for everything......

The big things and the small

For "every good gift comes from God,"

The Giver of them all.

And all too often we accept

Without any thanks or praise,

The gifts God sends as blessings

Each day in many ways.

And so at this Thanksgiving time,

We offer up a prayer,

To thank You, God, for giving us

A lot more than our share.

First, Thank You for the little things

That often come our way

The things we take for granted,

But don't mention when we pray.

The unexpected courtesy,

The thoughtful, kindly deed,

A hand reached out to help us

In the time of sudden need.

Oh, make us more aware, Dear God,

Of little daily graces

That come to us with "sweet surprises"

From never-dreamed-of places.

Then thank You for "the miracles"

We are much too blind to see,

And give us new awareness

Of our many gifts from Thee......

And help us to remember

That the key to life and living,

Is to make each prayer a prayer of thanks.

And every day Thanksgiving.

It is no small task to change your focus from what can go wrong to what can go right, and to empower yourself to shift from destructive behaviours to those that are generally associated with health. Repeat this to yourself often: "I now resolve to listen closely to that still, wise, strong voice within me that always guides me toward health and joy."

Prayer for Today

2010-04-25T11:53:00.000-05:00

Prayer should be a part of our daily life. Prayer gives us the opportunity for offering thanks to God and making our requests known to Him.

My Lord, Jesus. I am totally dependent upon You today. Help me please. I am relying completely upon You for wisdom, guidance, understanding, strength and knowledge. I believe that all things are possible with You Lord. So I come to you today in prayer expecting for You to pour out a blessing upon me. Increase my understanding and my relationship with You.

Thank you Lord. Amen.

Remember the Lord's promise to us;

Call unto me and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. Jeremiah 33:3

You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us.
