Thought For Today - 5/31/11

I could not do and can not do what I'm doing if I didn't have the love of God residing on the inside of me.

I can talk all day, but until you experience God's love on a individual level you really can't relate to what I'm saying.  Because of God's love on the inside of me I can face challenges in confidence knowing that Love has the situation under control.

Yes, God's love gives you the ability, the might, the power to overcome situations or problems that come your way.  Love will have you look at the matter through the eyes of Love - God.

If you are not experiencing this type of love, ask God right now to fill you up with His love.  In so doing, you will begin to give up every area of your life to Him - for His love to start the change.

I did!

Much love,
Joseph

I must admit (as I generally do) I'm a blessed individual.  I am constantly thanking God for all who He is in my life.

Daily I take inventory on what is going on inside of me.  I seek within to see if I'm at peace, am I holding onto offenses from others, have I lost the trust in people that I once trusted and finally does my heart and actions/reactions go hand and hand together?

At the end of the matter whatever I find in the inventory and if it's not agreeing with the Word of God, I immediately ask God to help me by faith to change so I can continue to please Him!

God is too good for me to keep anything in my heart that is not pleasing to Him.  Love has everything to do with it.


Much love,
Joseph

There will come a time in your life that you need to slow down, stop and listen to what God is saying.  God mainly from personal experience speaks in a whisper.  

If order for me to hear His whispers I had to disconnect myself from being such a busy bee (so to speak).

Once I made the decision to slow down or stop completely I begin to hear clearly the whispers of God.  Yes, it took time, but more of a commitment from me to move away from the fast-moving world around me.

To my surprise when I did this the first words I heard from God was "Joseph, I love you."  Just these four words changed my life!

Much love,

Joseph

Now it the time and the hour is here for me, you, to come into the place where we can be used of God to do whatever He wants to do.

We have waited patiently and eagerly.  We did get discouraged, but we are not now, we are no longer sitting around discouraged but we are hopeful, positive and full of expectancy to fulfill the will of God!

We are ready Expect great things to happen and change just for you. God is moving and turning things around.  He will deliver every promise too.

Yep, I speak from experience.

Much love,

Joseph

Soul Motivation Yoga studio is a story of God's favor and love for me and those attending classes, events, etc. there.  He is the one that has accelerated this process!

This studio is a faith project and I believe God can do anything.  All it takes is for you to stay faithful and one day you will be where He wants you to be!

There will be challenges to get you disappointed and try to set you back and some criticism from so-call friends and family.  Yet, this is not the time to get discouraged, but use it to push your forward!

With God on your side, you will keep moving forward and at a fast pace- than you ever thought!

Thought For Today - 5/16/2011

I can not imagine spending any part of my day and not finding time to take a few moments to commune with God.  My life will never be that busy!  

Experiencing time with God simply means taking time each day to be alone and sometimes quiet in His presence.  God should be the center of all our lives.

There are days that my schedule is very busy and the thought of finding time to be still, quiet and listen can be exhausting.  But, it is during these times that I need to be in God's presence the most.  

When I do take the time, it is such a joy to be in God's presence and I want to spend more time with Him because He is the center of my life!

Much love,

Joseph

There will be times in your life that you "miss it" when it comes to making decisions or choices in life.  Whatever the decisions or choices were does not in my opinion mean you didn't hear God's voice on this.  You just didn't take the time necessary to hear it clearly.

But, even in this, and because of God's amazing love for us, there is yet a way out.  You might not be sure how and what the answer is, but as I have done in the past, you simply ask for forgiveness, ask God to help you with this situation and by faith believe He will see you through it with expectations beyond what you could ever possibly imagine.

Love ones, God will comfort you, take care of you, keep you from falling, keep you moving forward in His Master Plan for your life as you acknowledge Him.  Yep, I speak from experience. :)

Love you,
Joseph

Thought For Today - 5/11/2011

Everything seems to be moving fast in my life and probably yours too.  It seems like we woke up one morning and there it was - God's touch is on everything we do.

Personally, it seem to me like what took maybe years in the past is now only taking months, weeks, days and even hours.  I see God moving me into a place that I can minister quickly to individual hurting emotionally (spiritually) to the point where they don't have to go through a 3, 7, 10 or 12 step program.

Yes, I see God moving me, you, us faster and further than we ever imagine.  He is working in our lives.  His Master Plan for our lives is now unfolding right before our very eyes.  Don't resist, just embrace it, trust Him and let it flow. :)

Love you,

Joseph

Thought For Today - 5/9/2011

The past several days I have been challenged with relationships.  Relationships are very important to me, especially the individuals in the very small circle I'm connected too.  

One of the challenge was to stand firm on my communication on a certain subject.  The subject was also relationships.  My firm stand as I communicated was to always act, live and walk in love.  Offense will come, but it is our choice to receive it or not.

I know God wants us all to maintain a love connection and live in peace with everyone.  From personal experience, sometimes maintaining the love connection and living in peace has to be from a distance for a while.

I suggested to pray for their relationships.  As they do, something not only happens to the individual they are praying for, but something happens to them.  This is how I see God working most of the time.  

In conclusion my suggestion was to pray for them, help them anyway they could if possible. God could and would then be able to appear on the scene.  

We must keep our spirits open to receive and not allow offense to come.

Love you!

Joseph

Thought For Today - 5/8/2011

From personal experience with knowing others and doing this myself, God can take an average person and move them into a position(s) where some of the major leaders in the community will inspire to be around them.

Theses individuals (average people) can and have changed their communities, their companies and their world!

Choose today to make God your Source of lifestyle.  Yes, studying, attending school, etc. can help you become a leader.  However, with your choice also focusing on God and His Master Plan for your life is way more effective!  

Take the extra moments to pay close attention to hear what God is calling you to do!

Love you,

Joseph

Thought For Today - 5/6/2011

I have said this many times in class and wrote about it in my blog.  I believe it may need repeating. :)  Where ever you are today in your life is where you need to be.

However, where you are today in your life is not where you are suppose to stay!  In God, we move forward, not staying still, nor moving backward.  In God, there is only increase, blessings and favor. 

Today, get or re-get the vision of God's Master Plan for you life.  Keep it in front of your thoughts, words, etc. Take it by faith.  Then, one day it will be a reality.  Yes, I talk (write) from personal experience.  This works! :)

Much love,
Joseph

I spend time daily in meditation (on God's Word) and through this I'm learning to act the same way in every circumstance of life - walking in love - no matter what.

Much love,

Joseph

Thought For Today - 5/4/2011

It took me a while to get here.  But, now that I'm here, no turning back!  I am continuing to become rooted and grounded in love - the love of God.

Everything I see, hear and do becomes based on love.  And as I continue to plant God's love commandment deep into my heart and my thinking, I have discovered new ways to keep this commandment. :)

Yes, applying love in every situation has not only become second nature, it has actually revolutionize every aspect of my life.  If you want the same and need help - contact me.

Much love,
Joseph

Thought For Today - 5/3/2011

For several year when I would wake up, I use to rush out of bed, rush to eat, rush to get ready, rush to get out of the house, and the list goes on and on for the day.  Those were the days I actually left home in a state of fear and unhappiness which in turn caused a handicap for me.

One day after spending time in my car almost begging God for help in areas of my life, I heard on the inside I needed to start my day off with God, in prayer, in meditation, in listening to what He has to say.

In summary, now I leave home in poise and peace.  I spend time in prayer, reading, meditation or just one-on-one communication with God.  I do all of this before I eat.  I do all of this the minute I get out of bed and before anything else.

Let me suggest you try this too.  For example, pray over your family and leave them with God's favor ringing in their ears.  Let them know you love them too!  Try this and see what happens.

Much love,
Joseph

Thought For Today - 5/2/2011

For me the teachings of Jesus Christ is a way of life.  I can not deny them and follow my own rule and way.  No, I take His teaching which was of LOVE. 

By Jesus' own acts, He gave the world the map for individual and world peace and salvation.  I have accepted His doctrine as a way of life.  In doing so my life has changed.

The main focus or theme I got from Jesus and I use is "loving one another as He loved us."  If we faithfully practice this, we all will find peace within ourselves and within the entire world.

Much love,
Joseph
