Kirk Franklin: Before I Die

I love this song, you can't feel anything but "good" when you hear this song. Be sure to pay attention to the lyrics and not just the beat, Lol..

God is so amazing....


Be Blessed!

Staying Focused

It's been a while since I've written anything, been in a little "slump" but no fear I'm still here; Thank God :)






Here's a little inspiration for anyone else that may be in need of a motivational PUSH.....

Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal. ~Henry Ford

Oprah Quotes on Living Your Best Life

With a New Year approaching, I thought I'd list a few of Oprah's Quotes on living your best life.

• If you want your life to be more rewarding, you have to change the way you think

• Doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment.

• Breathe. Let go. And remind yourself that this very moment is the only one you know you have for sure.

And last but not least, I think this one is SO appropriate.......

"Cheers to a New Year and another chance for us to get it right"

So...here's to "US" Living a Better Life in 2012 :)

Be Blessed!

OVERCOMING FEAR

The greatest mistake you can make in life is to continually be afraid you will make one.
Elbert Hubbard

JOYCE MEYER-LIVING WITHOUT FEAR

BE BLESSED........

ATTITUDES

I know you've heard the saying, "You" choose your attitude.... I don't know about you but I have difficulty with being pleasant to others that aren't being pleasant to me. 

I suppose that is what being in the FLESH and not of the SPIRIT  is, I so want to LIVE in the SPIRIT all the time, I have good intentions but the the moment when a not so good situation comes about, i go directly into "reaction mode" which causes me to lose the ability to focus clearly and later if not immediately have regrets.

This spiritual living thing is challenging but the rewards are FabuLous :)

Joyce Meyer Sermon:

Choose Boldness Instead of Fear (one of my favorites)

Why just-a-minute?

It has been estimated that we each create over 50,000 thoughts every day. That’s busy! And it’s tiring – particularly when thoughts are negative and stressful. There are two main things we need to do to reclaim inner peace and well-being; change the quantity and quality of our thoughts. The question is, how?

• tap into an unlimited power flow
• nurture feelings of security and safety

PURPOSE

 What's my purpose?

Purpose is a word meaning an object to be reached; a target; an aim; a goal; a result that is desired; an intention. Purpose's basic concept is an individual's voluntary behavior activity awareness. Defining purpose is often relatively vague and almost meaningless; however, the concept is valuable and therefore retained.^[1] Purpose can be operational defined as entity class property which may, but need not have consciousness.^[2]

Simple question not so easy "answer", at least not for me. I'm on a journey, honestly I've been on a journey for Years, :) It's obvious that I'm not doing something right but I'm hopeful that I'll find my Real purpose in life. 

Over the years I've tried yoga on and off, and let me tell you it's not easy getting your body to cooperate with performing yoga poses, especially when you're muscles and joints are tight due to limited mobility (lack of exercise) age and non-flexibility but its a challenge that I'm attempting to master Again, Lol..

Meditation is something else that I've done on and off and I actually really do enjoy it, I just have to commit to setting a time to do it, who doesn't have 5 or 10 minutes a day for themselves, right?



I'm one of those seekers of peace, and from what I've read it seems that yoga and meditation is a great way of staying centered and finding that inner-peace so here's to me sticking with it



I'm watching Oprah's " Super Soul Sunday" right now, its so inspiring to see that people are figuring out what their purpose is and have found enjoyment, happiness, peace etc....


I want that!!!!!!!!
