Morning Inspiration, Wisdom Wednesday - Celebrating The Moments From Existing to Living

Hello

I wanted to dedicate this blog post to my daughter, who celebrated her tenth birthday this week. I think the theme ‘celebration’ is very fitting, as it’s been 2 years since I began a new journey in embracing the unknown and turning my fears into faith. At the time it was an inconvenience but upon reflection, this could be what takes me from existing to living. 

I framed my experience using the quote below in hope that it will engage and encourage. 

‘Difficult roads, often leads to beautiful destinations’ – unknown.

I have walked on many difficult roads that my heart was once only filled with disappointments, despair and discouragement. Reading and applying new information has enabled me to win in the midst of adversity. The source has always been the Bible, this common thread hasn’t always been obvious to me, until I became disciplined in reading and application I saw the connection between the truth and I.

Regardless of your spiritual beliefs or non- beliefs, my message to you is the same. On the surface your life may be falling apart, a case of what can go wrong has gone wrong (I experienced this many times over). It is in actual fact clearing the path for better things in your life or blessings in disguise. When you embrace life as it is and not how you think it should be (resisting or fighting the inevitable). We can find eternal peace that guides hope and faith into a better tomorrow.

It is so easy to respond like with like, never allow your emotions to turn you into something that you are not. When we go through difficulties it tends to burden our souls, if we don’t actively practise the truth. Everything we think or do flows from our hearts, in Christ we often refer to God as a God of process, transforming us from the inside out. 

Proverbs 4:23 - Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. Keeping our hearts clean and free from ill thoughts can be challenging at the best of times but not necessarily impossible especially for those who believe as our peace and joy comes from the Lord.

I pray that the above short post has being a blessing to you. Every step should be acknowledged and celebrated as you see fit. For me, I love to celebrate whenever I reached that milestone I set, such as the number of hits on my blog, reaching the unreached in new locations and when my articles goes live. 

This only leaves me to ask, what are you celebrating this week or month?



With love and blessings

Highly Effective People Strives For Excellence

Hello I hope you enjoyed the last 2 special blog posts about Parentalk and Abuse. I felt it was important for me to use this platform to raise awareness on topics that could make a positive impact on future generations. This week is back to talking about life, inspiration, motivation and ideas-this post was actually inspired by a rather dysfunctional event. Every day we have many distractions, which can keep us from our destiny if we chose to be consumed by it.  Our dreams has to be bigger than our current reality to cause us not to sweat the smaller stuff and that involves letting some things or people go. The difference between effective and not-effective people is how we chose to channel it. Below is how (after the initial annoyance) I done it. Just to put this into context- the individual(s) concerns were unable to take accountability for their actions / errors, instead what I observed was a misuse of power and the slow demise of an outdated organisation. Enjoy...

A book review – Part One - Dealing with Disappointment by John Hindley

This book was a relatively easy read with the simple idea that leaves you to question: is life just one big disappointment?  In many ways it does seem so; the author delves into different areas of disappointment in our lives. I suspect most if not all are relatable to everyone. Firstly, the author says we actually should be disappointed by life, as things are not as good as they should be. We live in a frustrated and frustrating world; the frustration is because of the fallen world when sin entered humanity. We all carry this divinely inbuilt sense that the world should and could be better. The book goes on to say that on the other hand, we are sometimes too disappointed with life.  We expect satisfaction from other areas of lives to overcompensate for this.  When this satisfaction is denied, it starts an over-disappointed cycle. For example, I came across a thread where the mum wrote in and expressed disappointment in her children’s grades, which led her to ques...

A seemingly insignificant act has the potential to change the world...

I loved learning about the story of Reformation Day. The significance centres on how the Bible became accessible for everyone to read - historically the general public wasn’t allowed to read it, only priests or those considered anointed within the church were allowed to read it. The priests read the Bible in Latin, so for most people, it wasn’t even possible to read it. God’s word was entrusted into the hands of those in power, who were deemed qualified to understand it.  What the priests were teaching, was not actually in line with what the Bible said, as one monk, called Martin Luther found out. He started to read the Bible for himself out of pure frustration.  According to the teachings of the priests, believing in God seem to be just to be an endless set of rules and it left him feeling as if he could never be good enough for God. Little did he know at the time, he was about to birth a revolution that quite literally changed the world. This set him on a path of ...
