it's not a secret that meditation can be effective in discovering hidden personal truths. my choice of meditation is prayer in combination with wiifit yoga. it doesn't get more stay at home mom on a budget than that, folks!
over time (and with discipline. ugh), it's become apparent to me that the occasional revelation (which really feels, more like a sarcastic headline in my brain), is not meant for me alone. that is to say, if these personal moments of clarity improve my outlook, wouldn't they improve yours, too? just sayin.
anyhoo...today's headline, Offer to Him that of which He has asked of me.
whoa. that was a "what the Hell" moment right there. knocked me off the tree pose!
this all came out of a quiet thought niggling in the back of my brain that was tired of always "fessin' up". perception change: focus on doing something good for Him instead of always asking for help to change.
how obvious is that? instead of focusing on all the shitty things I do (you might as well fess up too), why not focus on 1 thing He asks of us?
I'm talking something small and thought provoking...like choosing words carefully when we speak, or be not quick to anger. (seriously, I know there's some smart ass out there who's saying, ok today my challenge is to not kill my boss. does not count).
wouldn't a small gesture be the equivalent of a shout out on fb sayin, "Hey there, thinking of you" kinda thing?
hows that for changing perceptions? lets pick 1 shitty thing we may do and not do it. hmmm. posting something nasty about the guy who cut you off.....or blowing it off and showing grace.
one is more fun, but the other is a lot less aggravating.
anyway, that's todays headline. for all those crazy christians out there, check out Proverbs for inspiration on that 1 thing. ~ yvette.
