Here is something I ran across today that is very appropriate, so I thought I would share it.
The world economy is in a downturn, people are getting laid off in mass, governments are bailing out financial institutions, unscrupulous financial gurus bilk billions out of unsuspecting clients, countries are at war, and the list goes on. The media continues to bombard us daily with images and words about scarcity and suffering. If we pay attention to everything they report it only reinforces negativity and makes us withdraw from life robbing us of our personal power.
We have within us the power to create our own world, but in order to awaken this power we need to stop listening to what’s going on with the outside world, especially the media, and concentrate on what we can do with our given space in this world. One by one we can awaken others to do the same and create a world of blessing and abundance. It’s been said that one person can make a difference; so why can’t that person be YOU?
Here’s a quote from Mahatma Gandhi that sums it up best…
“you must be the change you wish to see in the world”
YOU can make a difference beginning today by simply changing the way you think!
Here’s another quote that is still a classic…”for things to change…you’ve got to change and for things to get better…you’ve got to get better.”
Don’t try to change anyone around you, just refocus on changing the only person you can change, and that’s YOU.
As I always point out, the choice is yours.
For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus, so that with one heart and mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God. Romans 15:4-7 (NIV)If you have questions or comments, please feel free to contact me at the address below.
