The Power of Mindfulness

Mindfulness is the practice of bringing your attention to the present moment. You are awake, aware, and conscious of your thoughts and where you are in a non-critical or nonjudgmental way. You are processing your thoughts, but you are not necessarily responding or reacting to them. Mindfulness aids in calming the mind and body while positioning yourself to receive the benefits of it. Mindfulness allows you to take a beautiful moment to go within and connect with yourself. Mindfulness assists with surrendering everything beyond your control. Mindfulness aids in freeing the mind, calming the nervous system and increasing spirituality. I hope you incorporate mindfulness into your daily practice or routine. The only moment you have is right now. Listen to our For Mindfulness Sake Podcast to participate in a mini-mindfulness session.

Journey of Life

Every season has a purpose. Navigating the seasons of life can bring much joy and much sorrow. Hibernation occurs in the Winter for protection. Winter can look dreary most days. The Winter of life can equate to a desert, desolate or wilderness season. It’s during a time of hiding that God is our refuge and he works on us. Spring brings pruning to reshape the tree for what’s to come and rain to produce beautiful flowers and new beginnings. Just like the tree, life prunes us. Summer thunderstorms are important for survival and for a good harvest to produce in Fall. The storms of life can be unbearable leaving a long aftermath, cleanup, recovery and rescue. Continue on, the rebuild is always better after the storm. Leaves fall in Fall leaving a bare tree. The leaves must fall to make room for new leaves. Life can strip us naked to start a new. The old leaves are blown away, but some leaves may hang around as a reminder of what once was. Trust God’s timing in your life. He takes you through seasons for a reason. Not all seasons are bad. There are many seasons of life that produce great fruit; new wine, testimonies of God’s goodness, increased faith and to grow and stretch us. KNEEL and PRAY and stand TALL through them ALL.

God Speaks: He holds the key

Today is January 22, 2022. I saw 2:22 on the clock. I logged into FMS dashboard and there were 2,227 comments from followers thus far. The angelic number 2222 represents harmony, serenity, peace and stability. It’s a sign of ONLY good things to come.

Is there some problem in your life to solve,
Some passage seeming full of mystery?
God knows, who brings the hidden things to light.
He keeps the key.

Is there some door closed by the Father’s hand
Which widely opened you had hoped to see?
Trust God and wait for when He shuts the door
He keeps the key.

Is there some earnest prayer unanswered yet,
Or answered NOT as you had thought would be?
God will make clear His purpose by-and-by.
He keeps the key.

Have patience with your God, your patient God,
All wise, all knowing, no long tarrier He,
And of the door of all thy future life
He keeps the key.

Unfailing comfort, sweet and blessed rest,
To know of EVERY door He keeps the key.
That He at last when just HE sees ’tis best,
Will give it THEE.

The Path Foward

As this year comes to close, many are asking for clarity on the path they must take heading into the New Year. My message is clear, God knows the path we must take. Lately, each time I’ve used my GPS, the system automatically populated my destination, drive time and the best route. If my GPS knew where I was headed, surely GOD does. No matter how uncertain your path may be, please know your life is in his hands. Believe, It’s Your Winning Season.

Proverbs 3:5-6 says: Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths.

God Speaks: The Benefits of Prayer and Meditation

In today’s fast moving busy world we can find ourselves juggling many responsibilities. These responsibilities and their deadlines can make us feel overwhelmed. What do you do when overwhelmed? I pray and meditate daily. Why? Because God speaks when we pray and meditate. Prayer and meditation soothe the soul and creates the atmosphere to open the channel to hear God’s still quiet voice. Prayer allows a place to lay our requests upon God. Meditation connects us to God in stillness. God wants to help us, guide us, and guard us. Be still today and follow his instructions.

A Life Surrendered

As the sun shines upon a new day, I am reminded God’s mercies are new every day. Isaiah 43:19 says, “Behold, I WILL do a new thing, now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.” Please know, God is in control of your life. Every morning, God’s River of mercies flows fresh into us. He knows the path we must take. The hills we must climb. The valleys we must endure. Trust that God knows what’s best. Live a life surrendered. Surrendered means, to cease resistance and submit to authority. I know this can be hard, especially for anyone that’s used to being in control. Please know, there is beauty in surrendering. Think of it this way, aren’t you excited when opening a gift? Cast your cares upon the Lord today. Meditate on his word. His mercies are new, and his gift is everlasting. Until next time, take care.

Hold the Rope!

Have you ever encountered a desert or desolate place? A place where your faith is tested. A place where you have read God’s holy word and surrendered everything to him, but everything still seems to be falling a part. What do you do while in a season of waiting? Hold the rope! Find the knot, place both hands around it, hold on, sway if you must, but DO NOT let go. Hold on to your:

– Faith
– Courage
– Strength
– Patience
– Endurance
– Determination
– Praise and Worship

Move ONLY when you have felt the nudging of the spirit/universe or have heard the still quiet voice of God. Watch him work! He certainly will! Remember those footprints in the sand? Deuteronomy 1:30-31
