I Am Loved / You Are Loved
We’ve been having some ripple effects here on the hub and this is just another. According to Dayzeebee at “They Hub Among Us” she states that I blew the angels trumpet on her when I said “it is important to see through the eyes of God for if we could see ourselves this way there would be no more need for low self-esteem”. This statement woke Daisy up where she found another tool for empowerment to use on Ripplemaker which in turn inspired her (Michelle) to write “Angels Among Us”.
Let me explain why I’m writing this hub. It wasn’t a plan. I had actually started writing another hub but for some strange reason it just wouldn’t manifest so I started yet another and that too wouldn’t bloom. Either Dayzeebee is working her angelic magic across the universe or there is a Higher Power at work here; gently yet persistently nudging me to write THIS HUB….I Am Loved / You Are Loved.
I shall submit!
Something Beautiful
Father, I turn these minutes over to you.
Do something beautiful in my mind,
In my heart, and in my life today.
So I will look back and say: “I was
Caught up by an inspiring spirit of the
Eternal God in this moment of prayer.”
In the name of Christ, I pray.
Amen
I Am Loved / You Are Loved
Our planet is just a tiny lonely speck of dust within a great cosmic that we call home. Is this tiny speck the way God sees us as he looks down upon us or does He see us individually and tenderly as a father watches his children? Could we be small in the grand scheme of things but not unimportant!
…what is man that you are mindful of him, the son of man that you care for him? You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honor. You made him ruler over the works of your hands; you put everything under his feet: all flocks and herds, and the beasts of the field, the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas. (Psalm 8:4-8)
God Did Not Make You A "Generic" Being
God knows that you are unique and special.
…I am fearfully and wonderfully made…(Psalm 139:14)
Because He made you unique and special.
…And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. (Matthew 10:30)
God wants you to be healthy.
…for I am the LORD, who heals you. (Exodus 15:26)
And He wants you to have it all!
…it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. (Luke 12:32)
Open The Eyes To My Heart
So as God is expressed in a trinity, so are we his creation. Which means you are much more than just a physical body! You were created body, mind/soul, and spirit. All three are God’s precious gifts to you, more valuable than any amount of gold or jewels.
…may God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ (1-Thesalonians 5:23)
Are you living in a state of balance between your body, mind, and spirit? Recognize that all three aspects of yourself are equally precious and worthy of your best attention. When your not in balance your like a six-cylinder car running on just two cylinders. The result is you have no power and a mighty rough ride ahead!
Our spiritual growth is made in steps by letting go of the world’s naïve ways of seeing things and to open ourselves to God’s higher perspectives. Even if at first we don’t understand them. Making the right changes in what you think, say, and do will automatically take you where you want to be. You must come to see that your habitual behaviors are the real power either staying where you are or getting where you want to go. That’s because they do what they do automatically.
Meaningful changes do not happen immediately, but can only be the result of sustained effort in a new direction. Creating that sustained effort in a new direction is the only way to keep yourself from ending up from getting what you’ve always gotten. It is in working with a spiritual focus that we will enjoy the fastest and most noticeable results.
When you believe something strongly, the “how to” of achieving it comes to you practically without effort. The power of your belief becomes a magnet for the precious solutions you need. The stronger the belief, the better solutions you attract. That is why we need faith. Like the old expression that says “what a man can conceive and believe, he can achieve”.
God has given us this wonderful gift at the core of our human creative process. It is only yours to discover and use.
…therefore, I say unto you, what things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. (Mark 11:24)
God Says We Are Like Him.
Who Are We To Disagree!
…when God created man, he made him in the likeness of God. (Genesis 5:1)
…ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High” (Psalm 82:6)
…it is not written in your law, I said, ye are gods” (John 10:34)
Spiritual Success Steps
1. Believe that God CAN do it
2. Believe that God WANTS to do it
3. Believe that God WILL do it.
4. KEEP BELIEVING and stay in FAITH
Once you have truly accepted and embraced your own true worthiness in God’s eyes, you will have balanced beliefs, a positive self-image, strong self-esteem, and the ability to use your God-given power to create whatever you want in life.
…the words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life (John 6:63)
This Moment
Father,
I have a strong sensation that
You brought me to this moment of prayer
Because you plan to share with me
Insights to solve my problems.
So I will go out
And face the sunlight of a new day
And a new week
Crammed with undiscovered possibilities.
I am encouraged!
I am enthused!
I am more hopeful than I have been in a long time!
Amen
