Wisdom Notes-27

I CAN FEEL THE WINDS IN MY LIFE ABOUT TO CHANGE. I CAN FEEL THE FLOORS BENEATH MY FEET ABOUT TO SHIFT IN ANOTHER DIRECTION.

All I do is breathe, pray, stand strong in my faith and try to remember that all things happen for a reason and there’s a lessen in every storm. Knowing this, doesn’t make it easy. Storms are not always easy to bear.

Wisdom Notes-17

It’s Hard To See Things A Better Way. It’s Hard To Always Do Things The Right Way. It’s Hard To Believe When Your Body Is In Pain. It’s Hard To Trust Something You Can’t See. It’s Hard To Change With A Broken Spirit. It’s Hard To Walk Through Fear. It’s Hard To Love When Your Heart Has Been Torn Apart…

Be patient with yourself. Be patient with God. Nothing last forever but God’s love for you. There is Wisdom in everything that happens. A hard heart can’t learn wisdom.

Words

Words today hold no meaning; no one has the same meaning for the same words. People use words to meet a need, to feed their greed, to create a comfort zone and to get where they want to be.

Words are the most powerful thing in the universe. Words are a form of communication used in a negative or positive way; Words alter life for a life time; Words destroy, re-build, restore, remold, build-up, tear-down, mend or damage a soul; A spoken Word gives life; A spoken Word can make a heart feel like dying; Words encourage and discourage; Words can change a life for better or worst; Words can be food for the soul or kill the spirit; Words can portray as a knife and cut your world into; Words can be a beautiful thing if they are spoken in a beautiful way; Words can be evil and plant seeds of FEAR; Words can bless and words can curse; Words can direct your path or cause you to stray; Words bring peace or words can start a war; Words can open doors and those same words can imprison; Words can keep you bound and words can set your free. Words can make a difference between life and death.

From My Heart Reality: Words have lost their meaning. People don’t care anymore about what they say or how their words affect others. This is my purpose for writing this book. Words and actions are all we have in order to communicate. Use them wisely.

Vessel

A hollow tube; something weak yet strong enough to carry a precious thing; something used by God to get blessing from point A to point B.

From My Heart: A broken piece of grass, bent over from the heaviness of life… yet, as useless as it feels, it still provides shade for a ant, protecting it from the sun; a hollow tube (humble spirit) that is the wanting and waiting to be filled with God’s purpose, waiting to carry out God’s will. Most vessels are clogged with selfness, sin, foolishness, un-forgiveness, regret, everyday life problems and stuff.

In order to be ready for God to use us, we have to clean out our vessels (lives); renew our minds (cast down thoughts), change our ways; be humble to the little voice of your personal Holy Spirit; submitting the hearts to the word of God; try to do what is right before God; surrender unto him and be willing to be used by God and praying about all things; pray for guidance and direction.

Un-Motivated

When a go-getter connects an un-motivated mate, it’s like putting a string of bricks around the neck and expected to keep moving forward in life at the same speed. Un-motivate people hold you back or slow you down and they benefit from your gain. It’s stressful trying to reach your goal to benefit you both. Resentment sets in and the distance attitude starts. Some un-motivate people need you to believe in them in order for them to do better; Some un-motivate people don’t know how to be a go-getter (it’s like their minds can’t extend pass a certain point). Some are comfortable being where there are and if you change them, you change who they are.

From My Heart: Rather you are in a relationship or alone, there are things that need to be done to get where you need to be in life. I don’t know what will inspire you to be motivated. I don’t know how to go inside your mind and reprogram it to think or see life in a different way. Just know that life is passing your by.

There are many things that you can learn; many places that you can go; being comfortable doing nothing, you’re missing out on many things. All it takes is prayer, effect, sacrifice of self for others, take a healthy chance on being happy and meeting someone half-way, listen to tapes or read inspiring books.

Your mind is the reason that you’re not being motivated to do anything worth doing. Search your heart, mind and soul to be a better you. Be a blessing to someone when you get the chance. You may not be lazy; it may be a form of depression.

But know this; that God can renew your mind and your way of thinking but you have to want Him too.

The Soul

The soul is our truth; pure; just; the home of your conscience; fragile; compassionate; it is more of your heart than your heart; it’s true love of us that attract love, that wantingness to be loved; your soul-the place where it’s your last chance to do right; your righteousness; a bonding place. The tears that come from your soul are deeper than that of your heart. Every soul is repairable, restorable, re-moldable/clay, changeable, remarkable and savable… because the soul is your unconditional love.

From My Heart: You cannot find the soul unless you have the spirit of God. Everyone was born with a soul. Even if you cannot feel anymore, your soul still holds love. In the old testament of the Bible, they built an Ark of the Lord and God put a part of himself in it and if you were not a chosen Priest, you could or would die if you touched it. Your soul is like that-a part of God’s lives inside us all.

Smile

There is something special about a smiling face. I believe that a smile is the beginning of laughter and laughter is a lifeline connected to the soul. Laughter causes the soul to rejoice. When you smile at someone and they smile back, it makes their world ok…. if only for a moment. When someone starts laughing, it can become contagious. A smile is a natural connection between every soul. A smile can change a thought, change an attitude, re-direct an action, alter a mood and plant a seed of joy. The smile of child is brighter than a thousand suns.

Poetry
You’re Smile Your smile runs through me like a warm strike of lighting, waking up every part of me. There is nothing and no one like your smile. When you smile, you humble my knees and my heart. Your smile overwhelms my spirit in love. When you smile, you make my soul smile. Your smile gets me through it all in a blink of an eye. When you smile, instantly, life gets better. You smile embrace my everything. When you smile, the joy of the Lord is truly my strength and I can go on.

Your smile…. I thank God for your smile

Regret

Regret is a moment that happened and you wish and prayed that it had not happened. It is moment that you can’t change; words you said that you can’t un-say; things you’ve done that you can’t un-do. It’s a moment that you forgot to be caring, loving and considerate of another.

From My Heart: Forgive yourself and know that nobody’s perfect. We all fall short sometimes. Accept the result of your actions and try to find ways to make things a little better. Take responsibility for the words you spoke or the actions you took and learn to think before you speak or act. Ask for forgiveness and be ready to “not” be forgiven, yet give it time and ask again.

Drowning in regret won’t change anything.

Reason

Reasons- A state of mind or thought carried out that bears consequence; an excuse.

From My Heart: Reasons do not ease pain or hurt. Reasons don’t undo the wrong or crime committed. Reasons, does not change a thing that’s done. Reasons for saying goodbye, doesn’t comfort the person you left. Reasons for not taking care of a love one is not understandable or unacceptable if you have the means or time to do so. Reasons for staying: you avoid having to start over somewhere else-that’s life, just do what cha gotta do. If you make a choice based on your reasons, live with the consequences. A Reason for a thing, should be based on truth, honesty, love, mercy, fairness, facts, reality and compassion.

Promise

Promises are words of good intent; A delay of your efforts: a word used to dig your own hole of regret.

From My Heart: Promises are made from the heart with good intentions to carry it out. Things happen. Things change. People are human and we all fall short. Promises because of Obligations or a feeling that it’s your Responsibilities are serious commitments. Your word and your promises will determine your worth. Keep your word, say what you mean, mean what you say and do what you say you will do; this portray character and integrity. A person is only as good as their word.
