We all have those days when we feel stuck. When it seems like we’re not doing enough, accomplishing enough, or even coming close to doing what we had hoped to have accomplished by now. In a way we could say that we even feel unnoticed or invisible.
Unfortunately the world that we live in isn’t helping either. Often times the environment around us has a lot to do with how we’re feeling. We’re constantly being bombarded daily on social media with feelings of dissatisfaction, comparison, insecurities and a sense of lack.
We find ourselves looking for inspirations or role models through a screen. We judge ourselves and forget about who we really are. We feel that our self esteem is depending on other’s opinions of us, and little by little the cycle continues. We “numb” ourselves by reaching for the things that helps us to buffer our emotions. Food, addictive substances, and our phones or screens become our “go to” things when we’re feeling sad, discouraged, frustrated etc.
We don’t notice it most of the time unless we can bring awareness to what is happening. unfortunately, a lot of those things that we add to our day could be stealing our joy, draining our energy and most importantly clouding our ability to connect to God and to feel His love.
Today I want to invite us to be more aware of the things that drain our joy. So that we may make a conscious effort to remove them from our day or at least to minimize our exposure to them. Instead, let’s take a moment to step outside, take some deep breaths, enjoy the sun and look around fora moment to count all of the things that God has created and that our eyes can see today. See if for a moment you can just feel the love that God has for you. (Really, put it to the test, be more present and see what God allows you to feel)
Remember that there is something bigger and greater than our troubles and problems. The God who has given us another day to breathe and to be here on this earth is always ready for us to come to Him. He has a bigger and a greater plan for YOUR LIFE than you know. He LOVES YOU! Love was created by Him and He is ready to give His divine love to each one of us who seek it. ❤️
In case we have forgotten, let’s remind ourselves today today that each one of us is a child of divinity! A child of God. This life isn’t an accident but an opportunity for us to learn, to rise above the chaos and darkness and instead for us to gain a greater focus on living a life centered and aligned with God. A life that is filled with light, peace and the love of God to guide each one of our days.
The biggest thing we can come to know in this life, is to know who we really are. We are not what other people think of us, we are not our accomplishments, financial status or fame. We are not our circumstances, feelings, emotions or even our bodies. We are greater than all of those things. Our spirit has been around for way longer than we can comprehend. God knows us spiritually! He knows what we have overcome in the past and what we will overcome in the future.
If we can just remember that we are a cherished, beloved child of a Father in Heaven who loves us so perfectly, that He sent His son Jesus Christ to atone for each one of us. Even if we fail and feel distant, discouraged or anything like that. THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN SEPARATE US FROM THE LOVE OF GOD. ❤️ His love will always be there for us, regardless of what we choose to do. But how amazing would it be for our Father in Heaven to see us WILLINGLY turning our hearts to Him? 😍
The love of God will always push back the confusion of the world that tries to weaken our confidence and tries to blind us from our divine potential. The more that we are able to focus daily on the love that God has for us, the more confidence we will gain in Him and in ourselves. We will be able to let go and reject the feelings of heaviness, negativity, discouragement and instead rejoice in His LOVE daily.
The more that we’re able to come closer to God, the more we will be able to recognize the distractions and the things that bring us down. We will have more wisdom in the ways in which we CHOOSE to spend our time each day. We will be able to stop judging ourselves and others, We will stop having feelings of envy, jealousy, comparison and instead replace those feelings with love, compassion, peace, kindness and forgiveness.
The love of God will be able to surround us and to cover us completely. To the point that we will feel His immense love for us in our moment by moment decisions. We will find ourselves living out of that same love. Choosing LOVE & compassion for ourselves and others. With His help we will find ourselves accomplishing the impossible.
1 John 4:7-8 Says “Let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. … For God is love”
So, let’s not forget who we are and where we come from. Let’s allow ourselves today to consciously invite the love of God to be with us. He will lovingly allow us to feel that, if we choose to focus on His Love and the knowledge that brings above all other things. God is counting on each one of us to bring that light into our souls more fully and brightly, so that we will not only be able to help ourselves but to be united with God in helping to change the world and to invite others to come unto Him.
Our spiritual goal for this weekis to focus on LOVE. That we may choose everything that we do coming from a place of love. Allowing ourselves to connect to the love of God before our words, thoughts and actions. Aligning ourselves to the things that bring that love into our lives and letting go of the things that we can acknowledge are definitely not good for us. We be got this! 🙂
Our physical goal for the week, is for us to come from a place of love as we choose the food that we eat and the different exercises we will focus on. Coming from a place of love for ourselves will allow us to have greater wisdom as we take care of our Body, Mind & Spirit.
We will have class tonight at 5 PM to be able to give ourselves the opportunity to feel more of that love for ourselves. We will release stress, tone our bodies and have an amazing meditation to leave us feeling renewed, re-energized and filled with love for ourselves and others. Hope that you can make it. ❤️🥰
With love,
Lili 🌸
