Flushing Out Toxins

None of us are immune to bad things happening, or people behaving in a negative manner. None of us are above behaving in a negative manner — and if you think you are, check yourself. Just thinking that can put you on a righteousness trip that will be irritating to those around you. You might even irritate yourself.

No, we’re all subject to bad moods, negative feelings, anger, resentment . . . all kinds of toxic emotions. In “A Message From God,” The Author explains that each of us will encounter difficulties, because that’s part of the human experience. It’s how we deal with these difficulties — where we come from and the choices we make — that determines the evolution of our souls.

If you’re dealing with toxic emotions, check out this link on Beliefnet. As always, our lives are shaped by the moment-to-moment choices we make. If you’re aware of toxic emotions — yours or someone else’s — remember that you don’t have to act on “autopilot.” Stop, breathe for a few moments, ask yourself: “Who do I want to be in relations to this situation or person?” Listen to the still small voice in your heart, then choose from there.

It will not always be easy, but it is always worthwhile.

The Secret to “The Secret”

The only problem I have with “The Secret” has nothing to do with its content, but in the fact that its popularity may overshadow its potency. People looking for a quick fix — lose weight, make money, whatever — may miss the awesome and simple principles taught in “The Secret.” Then, if they don’t drop that 10 pounds, or make that big check . . . “Ah, it’s a hoax. I knew it all the time.”

Peace: Be Still

Sometimes, just for kicks (and insight), I like to actually visualize what might have been like to have walked alongside the disciples as they traveled with Jesus. Because I don’t know Aramaic, and I don’t speak in “thees” and “thous,” I allow myself to imagine Jesus speaking in everyday language.

Weathering The Storm

If you are going through something right now, something that scares you, here’s the main thing you need to know: God is with you, right now, right in the midst of it. Now, if you’re from the “I expect God to fix this situation to my satisfaction, and RIGHT NOW!” mindset, well, you’ll probably be disappointed. It is through tough times that God molds us, and the more rigid and close-minded we are, the more likely that the molding must be done with a hammer and chisel as opposed to the gentler molding of pliable clay.
