Love- The Weapon of Mass Creation

The other day I was driving and meditating on God's love.  Then a car pulled up in front of me with a bumper sticker that read "God is the Answer" but I saw "Love is the Answer".  God is LOVE.   I am learning that when you pour love into any issue of life it will easily resolve itself.  Love never fails because God never fails.  Everything He does is inspired by love.

 When you pour love in your children they grow up secure, self-confident and happy.  When you unconditionally love your spouse, your marriage becomes

A Friendly Reminder

I was busy at work on a deadline and I tend to tunnel when I work- just block everything out and keep working for hours.  But I kept getting this little nudge inside to listen to The Power which I have on audio. It was exactly what I needed to keep me focused, balanced and inspired.  It's about 6 hours long and I even went to sleep listening to it.  How important it is for each of us to remember that love really and truly is the only path to happiness.  I have to admit that I let myself slip a little in the gratitude area.  It's so easy to get sidetracked with the less important.  Gratitude will not only keep you on track it is one of the fastest way to get in sync with the Almighty and on track to greatness.  Thank you for always keeping me on track. \o/

What Christmas Means to Me

Today I am writing this post in the comfort of my home, with the smells of Egg Nog Bread Pudding in the air my children tucked away in their room playing their latest video game gifts and my hubby napping soundly.  I am filled with a wonderful sense of peace and contentment.  Not because I was able to buy enough gifts for all of my loved ones and not because I received everything on my Xmas wish list but because I am consciously aware of the gift that I carry around in my heart every waking moment of my life. 

The goodness of God was released on that day over 2000 years ago and Jesus was born.  He became the bridge for us to gain access to all the treasures in Heaven that God wanted to shower on us His children.  He brought peace, love, joy, goodness, patience, gentleness, kindness, faithfulness and faith to this earth.  Finally, we now had the ability to live a full and abundant life.

Feeling Good- The Secret to an Amazing Life

I start my day in silence.  Enjoying the peace I feel in my heart, being one with God. I start my day acknowleging the magnificence of who I am and all of the blessings God has given me.  I focus also on what He's left in my authority.   I know that I have the power to create my world with my thoughts and feelings, so I consciously create a heavenly life starting early in the morning.  With a heart filled with joy and love I go about  focusing on all the things I love: my husband, my children, my family and friends, my job, cooking, eating :), going to the beach, banana splits, a baby's giggle, my children's sense of humor, spanish cooking, french fries, my trip to Paris with my sister, Christmas, visiting my Dad and brother, watching my children excel in basketbal and the list never really stops.  I add to it every day.
I focus on the eternal truths of God's word and use it to frame my life. I use the truth as my standard.  If an area of my life doesn't match up to the truth in God's word

What's Love Got To Do With It

When I met my husband I vowed to find a way to use God's Love to seal our marriage and keep it fresh, sparkly and new.  I'm not talking about just romantic love, but the kind of love that's established in God's love. That's the only kind of love that gets stronger through time.  More than half of marriages fall prey to indifference and "day-to-day hum-drum" living.  This indifference causes a marriage to slowly become weak and vulnerable to strife, a lack of intimacy and separation.  Way before couples break up, they break-up emotionally.  One or both give up on loving each other. 

So from early on I began collecting the emails we'd sent to each other when we were first getting to know one another, the chats and the greeting cards. I even kept a journal which chronicled

Manifest the Best

I am so excited about life! Life is such an adventure when you understand that YOU are creating your life with your thoughts and feelings! Today while working at home, I took a break and sat out on the patio with my "The Power" book by Rhonda Byrne reading about how your feelings are the catalyst that create your life. I think about this past year and am so grateful by how far I've come and how God has mercifully showed me how to overcome the fears I had experienced.  It is such a relief to know that my responsibility in this life is not to concern myself with HOW something I want will come to me, but to only EXPECT it with my good feelings and God will do the rest.

Most people get stuck because they want certain things in life but don't see the money they need to get those things.  You don't need money to GET what you want.  Reality Check! There is nothing standing in the way to what you are seeking.  Before any business transaction takes place a spiritual transaction always precedes it. Your feelings are the currency required in exchange for what you want.  All you need to do is

The Mind of Christ

   Every single day I am busy keeping the garden of my subconscious mind/heart clear of weeds, insects and cultivating beautiful fruit of love, joy, peace, gentleness, goodness, faithfulness, kindness and self-control. This way God's goodness is free to flow in my life.  Just like you, I am a work in progress.  Learning each day, that God is truly a good God and has so many wonderful things in store for us all.   When I finally began to understand that my thoughts create my future my life began to change.  I watch my thoughts, my words and always keep an eye on my actions.  Are they in line with the life I want?  Do they support my healthy self-esteem? Is this God's best for me? What would Jesus do?

When Jesus walked the earth His subconscious mind created His world just like you and I are doing right now.  He had to watch the thoughts that He entertained in His mind as well because He understood that His thoughts manifested themselves and created the fabric of His life which would soon impact the lives of all of humanity.   Jesus meditated upon the word and He had the Holy Spirit to guide Him.   Jesus was a success because

Complaining- The Blessing Repellant

I'm not much for complaining these days.  It's actually become one of my pet peeves because I now naturally gravitate towards people, places and things that are full of joy and goodness.  Therefore I have no need for complaining.  It doesn't serve the life that I want and am attracting everyday. You see I understand that the more I focus on the goodness and blessings all around me, the more of those things I attract.  My passion is to live a life of purpose.  The kind of life people only dream about- full of wisdom, love, abundance and divine guidance in every area of my life.   In order to accomplish this I have to be true to myself, have faith in God and express His love at home, at work and everywhere I go.  This is how God will be able to use me to enlarge and enrich humanity.  This is how good people become great and leave a lasting legacy of love and prosperity.

Boundaries

Living out your fullest potential in life requires discipline to let go of bad habits like complaining, worrying, self-defense mechanisms, excuses, guilt, envy & jealousy and self-pity.  These devices are only boundaries and stumbling blocks to your success. When you complain habitually it's because

Breaking Through the Surface

Pots of Dirt

A couple of months ago our family got together at my mom's house. It was really cold and rainy that day. My mom, who happens to be a green thumb, has this collection of orchids she was concerned about. It was supposed to be one of the coldest nights of the year and she knew that if the flowers stayed outside they would die. Well, they weren't really flowers yet. At the time they were just pots of dirt, and some of them had stems but if you know anything about orchids, until they bloom again, they are just a pot of dirt and a bald stem.

We began our rescue efforts and relocated more than 50 flower pots safely into the house. This is Florida and yes we have the most ideal weather but that night, with the cold and rain I remembered why I moved away from the North.

Unfortunately some of the big plants that didn't get relocated into the house that night showed signs of distress a few weeks later

Faith and your Emotions: Part II

What do your emotions have to do with your faith? Absolutely everything! If you feel down and discouraged it’s because you are not expecting the best therefore your faith is not working. Faith is always expecting the best and so it ALWAYS feels good! You are spending your precious time thinking or meditating on things that do not serve the very best life that you deserve. For most people it happens by default. You see, hear, feel, touch or taste something in your world then react instinctively to it. You either feel good as a result of what you have perceived or you feel bad. Let me show you what I mean in this scenario:

Let's say you’re driving to work. As soon as you get on the highway someone immediately cuts you off and runs you off the road.

You can react in 2 ways:
