QUESTIONS

Questions
I keep asking them
Because I want to know the truth
I want more than a superficial answer
I want a deep understanding.

Questions
They are like a quest
One leads to another
Which leads to another
And they lead me to a deeper understanding
They help to have a deeper understanding of the truth

Questions
I ask them because I can
I ask them because I have the right to
I ask them because I want to know
I ask them because they bring me
To a truth
Which can only be answered
Through questions

HOW GOD FEELS

The shame, the silence, the pain
God has felt this too

I was shamed for my enthusiasm
I was silenced and not given space
I have been told I was too kind
I was not given room to explain
God has felt this too.

I have been told I was not welcome
I was told I was too enthusiastic
I have been told I do not fit in
I have been told I am not relevant
God has felt this too

I have felt the pain, experienced the humiliation, felt the denial
God has felt this too.

I have felt the love, I have felt the joy, I have felt the companionship
God has felt this too.

I have been validated for my feelings
I have felt appreciated by others
I have known what it is like to be told thank you
I have felt the warmth of someone’s hand
God has felt this too

What I appreciate about my life
Is that everything I have felt
God has felt this too.

LET'S BE INTENTIONAL ABOUT PASSING DOWN A LEGACY OF ENTHUSIASM TO THOSE WE MEET AND WORK WITH EACH DAY

SONG OF THE WEEK

This song always gets me up and dancing because I know every day the Divine is taking the shackles off our lives and ministry.  So come join us and lift up some praise and enthusiasm this morning. http://inspiritual.biz/inspiritual-song-of-the-week1/

Thought for the day

OK SO IT IS JULY 30TH AND NOT JULY 1ST, BUT THE MESSAGE IS THE SAME. STOP SITTING THERE WAITING FOR YOUR DREAMS TO COME INTO BEING. GET UP AND GO AFTER THEM. MAKE EVERY MOMENT COUNT.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Enthusiasm is the fuel which will help you achieve your dreams. Keep the fuel flowing and you move forward. Stop the flow of the fuel and you stall out.

IT’S CHEERING TIME!

Recently, a few of my students and I engaged in a discussion of the film, But I’m A Cheerleader. While the film had little to do with actually being a cheerleader, it did get me thinking about who the cheerleaders are in my life, who I am a cheerleader for, and the role of cheerleaders in our lives.

It got me thinking back to high school, which for some of us is longer ago than others, and one thing I remembered is that when they were on the field they were always smiling. It did not matter whether the home team was winning or losing, they just kept smiling. It seemed as if on the days when our home school team was doing the worst, they came in smiling and cheering louder and more enthusiastically than ever. We may have thought the situation was hopeless, but their enthusiasm and cheering made you continue to hope for and cheer for the players on the field.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

WHAT ARE YOU WILLING TO DO TODAY TO MAKE IT WORTH REMEMBERING?

ARE YOU JUICY?

When I told a friend, this is what I was going to title my blog, she suggested I rethink it as I might offend a few people. Although I could not find an official definition of juicy people anywhere, I found numerous references to them as those people who are photographed wearing outfits that make people take pictures of them and post them on Facebook. It seems one of the more popular stores to find this type of juicy person is at Wal-Mart.

However, that is not the type of juicy people I wanted to talk about today.
