New Year’s Resolution: Buffing Up My Awesomeness
I’m creating a new normal here. One more like what my Father/Mother God wants and designed for me.
Take Flight (New Poem by Polly Castor)
tizzy wizzy
so much going on
a flapping flock of thoughts
crowding in, all squawking
on the same branch…
The Difference Between Self-care and Selfishness
Doing something that benefits you alone is selfish. Doing something that enables you to give more to those around you is self-care. (Only you know the difference.)
Excessive Planning is a Form of Unbelief
I did not design the human mind to figure out the future. That is beyond your capability. I crafted your mind for continual communication with me.
One Man’s Wilderness (Book Review with Quotes)
This is a marvelous little book. I loved it and give it five stars. It chronicles a man’s first 16 months in the wilds of Alaska in the late 60’s.
No Victimization in Heaven (Deep Think #7)
Choose your stance carefully, for on the human level, it will be a self-fulling prophesy. Decide to be undefiled by anything that is not of God, and not true in the kingdom of heaven right now.
Come Out of the Closet
Each of us needs to “come out” of the closet more each day, embracing and accepting more and more who we actually are, honoring our quiet self examination from on high that we gain in our closet quiet time, which gives us confidence to risk the candlestick as the best place for us to be.
Polly Preaching #1 (Forgiveness)
Forgiveness is the other side of the coin of healing. Because Jesus could forgive sins, he healed. Do it too.
Genuine Reconciliation (Desmond Tutu Quote)
Superficial reconciliation can bring only superficial healing.
Do Something You are Bad At
We all include the full range of wonderful qualities and attributes, but we rarely identify with them all. I might see myself as creative, but not patient for example.
Opinions Enslave Us as Much as Fear
I’ve been on a journey of surrendering my opinions and my wants and needs in small ways and am finding that I basically don’t have a clue just how BIG God is and how much GOOD He has in store for me.
There Must Be One Human Family (Harry Emerson Fosdick Quote)
Get together; you are fighting against the inevitable when you try to live in isolated alienation on the basis of your old political and imperialistic divisions…
“Take No Thought For What You Eat” (Deep Think #4)
Curious why a Christian Science practitioner takes care about what she eats? This is where I stand.
Whole30 for 180 Days!
Overall, this project was a success on many levels. Firstly, I feel in control, instead of being at the mercy either of food itself, or of a wildly immoral food system.
The Way Other People Treat Us Isn’t About Us (Rita Sharma Quote)
You don’t have to allow their judgement to become your truth.
