I feel alive, hopeful, optimistic and confident! Hooray! Thank you Jane for helping me to articulate this!
I am thankful for this state of mind. The last few months have not been easy with the rollercoaster of emotions of grief, love, and loss.
In all, this very present day is sunny, calm, and beautiful! I feel a change of scenery. It seem the universe is shifting, rearranging element for my pleasure.
Today is the appointed time for a mindset shift, or change. I think I prefer the word change. Shift seem to connote the fact that it may shift backwards, either way, and change for me, seems more permanent. I want that!
This is my desire. A permanent change of mind! A positive and progressive turn around!
Do you desire a positive and progressive turn around? Are you ready for a mindset change? A move from grief, pain, and guilt to joy, pleasure/peace, and acceptance? To move from where you are towards where you want to be will require you to be intentional. You must guard your heart! Proverbs 4:23
- You must be self aware! What do you focus on regardless of what has happened and what is happening all around you? Focus on the rays of light in the dark
- What are you listening to? What message are you absorbing into your subconscious? Listen to uplifting, positive, and inspiring messages
- What are you saying? Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. How positive and optimistic are your utterances? Speak what you desire to manifest
- What are the virtues you see in yourself? You do have some nice ones! Celebrate and nurture those. Celebrate yourself. You are doing well under the circumstances
- Accept yourself for who you are right now and work daily to be a better version of yourself. Embrace the totality of your being. Self love is important
My grief took me on a journey. The past few years has be tumultuous on its own before the losses of so many loved ones over a short period. It seem the dam of pain broke loose and I went spiralling down a dark alley.
I know I could not continue the way I was, grief stricken and bowed down. I need a change. I want me back. And better! Thankfully, overtime, and subtlety, the Lord gave me pointers that I needed. I sought for help, and followed the pointers above. I am not where I need to be yet, however, I have moved closer to where I need to be.
I started to see myself through the eyes of my loving father and my loved ones. What would they want for me I asked? I know they would want me to be happy, joyous and full of the sunshine I was born with.
Lord, I don’t want to go back to where I was before today! In your mercy, keep my eyes on your love, grace, and the possibilities, and the assurance of your constant presence in my journey of living eternity unending. For in your presence Oh Lord are pleasures for evermore – Psalms 16.
Shalom
Radiant Glory Of Love
