As we face the different challenges that come into our lives, we start to realize that we really do have a choice on what we focus on. We can either let the challenges bring us down or allow ourselves to grow from them, hold on, be patient, pray and wait for God’s timing.
We know that our challenges are not something new to God. He knowns what we will face throughout our lives. He has known the end from the very beginning. He is fully aware of our challenges and is always ready to help us. Even when we don’t feel Him near, He is working behind the scenes to provide for us daily. So, what can we do to navigate life a little bit better & be more willing to trust God?
The best formula when a problem arises is for us to stop, take some deep breaths, find ourselves in the moment we’re in, pray for wisdom, forgiveness, strength and to be able to feel the love of God. We can cast our cares on Him and try to listen to His wisdom. Allowing that wisdom, love and peace to renew our minds and thoughts as well.
We can continue to fill ourselves spiritually with positive messages. We can try to be aware of what we need at this time. (Rest, Relaxation techniques, exercise, time alone etc) being aware of what we need and trying to love ourselves enough to take care of ourselves during our challenges will also help us to “recharge or re-new” our energy. It’s during those moments that we need to find stillness and remember to be kind, loving and positive with ourselves as we’re facing our different challenges.
In class we talk about becoming our own best cheerleaders throughout the ups and downs of life. We need to encourage ourselves to take care of our body, Mind and Spirit. We can’t depend on anyone else to do that for us. We can reach out to God to help us have the strength and motivation we need to move forward. HE WIll ANSWER OUR PRAYERS. He will help us even if it’s just by providing peace to our hearts at that very moment. The choice to come to Him will always be ours but as we come to Him we are renewed, stronger, motivated and willing to focus on the good that is around us.
We can also take moment to look more closely at our thoughts. We can notice which thoughts are serving us and which thoughts are weakening us. One of the best tools to check our thoughts is to write them down and to ask ourselves if they really do make sense. Sometimes writing thoughts down on paper can helps us to realize that they’re not really serving us and are causing more damage than good. We can ask ourselves, Is this thought really true? is this thought an energy draining Or energy producing thought. We can then allow ourselves to change some of those thoughts and to instead replace them for what God would tell us to focus on instead. Some examples can be that we choose to focus on gratitude, counting our blessings, joy and being just present in the moment. Choosing positive thoughts and actions will re-train our brain to help us move forward and upward on our journey of becoming the best version of ourselves.
God wants us all to have a truly personal relationship with Him. The truth is that we don’t have enough wisdom to run our own lives. WE NEED DAILY DIVINE HELP! God has that divine wisdom and power to help us through it all. So why not fully trust Him? Why not give it all to Him? He can protect us and either open or close doors for our benefit and wellbeing.
It’s important for us to discover and understand that life is way better when we’re fully dependent on a loving God, who is forgiving, kind, merciful and patient with us. Rather than to try to do life on our own. We really do need our creator if we’re looking for internal peace and guidance in our lives. He is the ultimate guide who knows what is truly best for us in the end.
So, let’s have faith in Him. Let’s not doubt His power, but instead remember who we are speaking to. The Father of our souls loves us! He is love, peace and joy and we have that divine DNA flowing within us! We just need to activate it more often 😉 As we allow ourselves to connect to that divine DNA within us our inner peace will increase and our ability to know how handle each moment will become clearer.
Now more than ever is the time to strengthen our relationship with God and allow it to grow stronger and brighter each day. As the world gets progressively darker and drawn away from God we can become progressively brighter and stronger in Him. Because with God by our side, we have nothing to fear and we can be filled with His hope, wisdom & knowledge. & NOTHING OR NO ONE can ever take that away from us. Life is sooo much better when we’re close to God!!! ❤️
Once we give it all to God and we try to focus on what we can do and think we have to remember that the enemy will continue to attack, bringing doubts, fears, clouding our minds with negative thoughts or distractions. So, we must be vigilant and aware that it’s in the waiting when the enemy tries to attack the most. But that’s when we can HOLD ON TO GOD AGAIN & focus on the power of prayer that can lift us up, and we can then say to ourselves; “I am a child of God. Created by the divine power of a loving Heavenly Father. His power is within me. He loves me. He supports me and provides abundantly in my life. He fills me with His peace and love daily and I continue forward knowing that God is working right now in my life. I now receive His love, peace and all that He has abundantly for me. ❤️
Finally, God wants us to experience His joy more fully. So, is there any joy that we can hold on to right now, while we wait for God to help us with our different challenges?…Turning our hearts and attention away from ourselves and focusing on giving to others will bring us more of the joy of God and allow us to receive more of His light and wisdom as we go through our different challenges. Our burdens become lighter when we turn our hearts to others and we’re better able to focus on the light that we’re able to share with others. God will see our efforts and bless us for that always. ❤️
So, this week our goal is to remember that there is Divine light fully available for us to gain more wisdom and guidance. We already have divine light within us, because we come from the presence of God. We just have to allow ourselves to create moments to strengthen that light through prayer, changing our negative thoughts, holding on, becoming our own best cheerleaders and focusing on the good around us and on what we can do to help ourselves and others.
Our physical goal will be to burn more calories than we take in. Eat healthy, nutritious food and move your body daily! 🙂 Hope that you can make it to class tonight at 6pm to do something amazing for your Body, Mind and Spirit. If it’s raining we’ll be inside. If not, we’ll see you outside by the lake. Hope that you can make it! ❤️🥰
Today is our chance to trust to Him. To give our pains, insecurities and challenges to Him. Today is our chance to listen for His divine guidance and to feel His love and peace. There won’t be another day like today. So, we must make the best of what we have 🙂 Today we can enjoy the Love, peace and light that God has available just for us. We can try our our best, cheer ourselves on! check our thoughts and purposefully choose thoughts that will be healing, kind, motivating and positive for us. He is our strength and our light and with Him we can do ALL THINGS.
John 14:27 Says; My Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled neither let it be afraid. ❤️
Love,
Lili
