You can entertain anything with your thoughts, either negative, or positive. Whatever you entertain will eventually seep into your reality. Spend time contemplating and reflecting on your desired outcome. Think of it as writing a script and having it played on the movie screen of your mind. It can either be a meaningful, uplifting movie, or it can be its opposite. Recognize the importance of guiding your thoughts to joy and fulfillment, and you’ll get the essence of your every desire. Danny G.
Refocusing Our Energy
Why is quieting the mind so beneficial? Because an overactive mind with constant stress creates sickness and exhaustion. When you quiet your mind, reflect and refocus your energy in a positive direction, your body follows as well. Everything experienced in the mind, the body follows eventually. Seeking within is the best means to refocus your energy, for what better way than seeking your creator, source, unique calling, and purpose. Danny G.
You’re Not That Far Behind
Sometimes when we’re at wits end, we are actually very close to our breakthrough. Though we may not know it, we are closer, and ready for our breakthrough. The wise one persists despite the insurmountable opposition, that occurs before his victory. Then he ends up on the other side victoriously, remembering the day he so wanted to give in. Danny G.
Our Concept of God
What are your beliefs about God, the universe and the universal laws that govern humanity? Do you believe God is a vengeful God who punishes for his will to be done? A loving father who considers himself a spirit of love, compassion, and union wouldn’t call himself vengeful. Nor would he want us to create enormous pressure on ourselves with an unending demand to be perfect.
Some of us believe God is never satisfied with our current progress or life. We create a reality in our mind about the concept of God, which contradicts everything he is. What kind of situations or people would you attract considering beliefs ultimately create our reality?
God loves you as you are, because he created you as you are and he knew every mistake you would make in this lifetime. You don’t have to achieve perfection in order to have his blessings and approval, as we are all struggling with something.
Most of our beliefs stem from our earliest ancestors, and great teachers thousands of years ago. They’re great teachers, and they always will be, however, is the reality they faced over two thousand years ago our reality today?
I’m not denying the fact that the teachings are still insightful today and they can still be used to gain wisdom and improve our everyday living. The problem begins when we base everything on yesterday, and we don’t consider the fact that we have as many great teachers today as our earliest ancestors. Let’s accept the world is always changing and improving and that the great teachers of today are just as good as our earliest ancestors.
We also tell ourselves God must be feared, and we need this fear to coerce us into right doing. How about doing right because we want to improve our lives and improve humanity? We can do right because we know actions have consequences and we care about our well-being and the well-being of others. We can do right because we love God, and we know he has our best interest at heart, not because we fear God or the devil. We tell ourselves, if we die in sin, we must endure hell. God wouldn’t create you as you are and expect nothing but perfection.
If you choose to see God as he truly is, you will be motivated by love and not fear. You will be motivated because it’s the best choice, and not because of your fear of punishment or disapproval.
Wait For It
The right time to call your exit on this physical plane, will be when you say it’s my time and I’ve completed my mission and I shall go in peace. Until then you have a life to live and happiness that lies ahead. Danny G.
You’re Still Here For A Reason
The moment you try to end your life or you contemplate it, is the day the pain will be a multitude greater, because deep down you know you’re supposed to be alive until the day God calls you home. As long as you have breath, you’re supposed to be alive.
Danny G.
An old man made a comment a long time ago when I was a young teenager around 12, or 13, and it stayed with me until this very day. A statement that sounds so simplistic, yet people consistently fight against it. He said there’s one obligation in life that everyone will have to face at one point or another. Everything else is a choice, but this one unavoidable experience that we must all face is death.
Everyone on this planet at the present time will leave this time space reality at one point. If we accept this reality that physical death is inevitable, then why do we try to end our life before our time? We’re fighting against the only obligation in our life that is inevitable.
The moment you decide that you want to end your life, you will know deep inside your gut, that you are making a big mistake. You know in your heart, as long as you have breath, you’re supposed to be alive. Denying your existence would be going against the laws of nature, because you know God still wants you here and he needs you.
Why are you trying to end your time before your mission is complete? We all need growth on an individual perspective and on a global scale, and sometimes the reasons we want our escape, are the reasons meant to catapult us to our divine destiny.
You have joyful experiences ahead, and you have something to give that will all make sense one day. You will say I’m glad I didn’t give up and I know why I went through that experience, since I became a better person and I helped others along the way.
You may say it’s too difficult, or I feel this emptiness that will not leave. Consider, if you were supposed to die, it would have happened already, but you’re still here because you and God chose for you to be here. These challenges are meant for your own expansion and for all the lives you touch. Simply by being you and being the best version of yourself, means you have purpose and it means you have something to give that no one else can, because there’s no exact replica of you.
You’re trying to end a journey that still needs unfolding, and you’ll feel an uneasiness that will be greater than the statement “I can’t take it anymore.” Because deep down you know you’re supposed to be alive, and you know you’re supposed to be alive until the day God calls you home.
The right time to call your exit on this physical plane, will be when you’re old and wrinkly, and you will have lived a joyous fulfilling life. Then you’ll say it’s my time and I’ve completed my mission and I shall go in peace. Until then you have a life to live and joyous experiences along the way.
No Pit Too Deep
There’s no pit so deep that you cannot find a solution. There’s no mistakes you’ve made that would stop God’s love for you. For God is a source of love, and he is limitless and infinite, and he promised all things are possible! He also said according to your faith it shall be done unto you, so whatever you’re yearning for is achieved through faithful thoughts, words and actions, and it’s done one step at a time! Danny G.
Loving Oneself (Poem)
When he truly loves himself,
Accepts himself as he is,
Why does he need approval,
From anybody else.
If he is secure,
The critics don’t matter,
He knows where he stands,
Controversies don’t last.
If he truly loves himself,
Then why does he need convincing,
To prove to him, only what he can.
For if he is secure,
Then no words can offend him,
And he forgets what’s said.
When he truly loves himself,
What do compliments do,
Than reinforce what he knows.
And what does criticism do,
If it disagrees with his whole.
If he truly loves himself,
Why does he need praise,
When he praises himself,
And what is disrespect,
When he respects himself.
If he truly loves himself,
Then there’s no convincing,
And no ridicule,
That can make him change.
Because he is secure,
In what he knows,
And what others say,
He doesn’t care,
For he respects himself,
Above all else.
When he truly loves himself,
He doesn’t need another,
To bring him, only what he can.
A lover or a friend,
Only reinforces who he is,
For he searches himself,
And then the right ones come,
And are here to stay.
When he truly loves himself,
He doesn’t forget himself,
Or where he comes from,
Or who he is.
Because he is secure,
In what he knows,
And he loves himself,
Despite what others say.
God’s Laws Are A Definite
To believe in conventional medicine to heal is good, but to believe in the divine power to heal is even better, for medicine doesn’t have a guaranty but God does. How many times has medicine failed? How many times has God’s laws failed? If you want a guarantee, seek his laws and apply them in your life, then the medicine will only facilitate the process. We’ve heard the scripture, “according to your faith, it shall be done unto you.” Believe this in your heart, and it shall be done unto you. Danny G.
It’s Just A Better Choice
Is there such a thing as a right choice or is there just a better choice? We’ve heard the saying there are many roads that lead to Rome. Almost everyone’s journey has detours and delays, and most importantly, every journey is unique in one way or another. Many people or religions tell us there’s one path and one path only. They tell us there’s only one pathway that we must travel and if we fail on this one journey then we lose our chance at success or salvation.
You can only make choices based on your current understanding, maturity and wisdom. A year from now or 5 years from now, you may have a very different mentality, thereby causing you to choose differently. Considering the fact you’re always changing and growing, the choice you made that you really regret wasn’t a failure, it was simply part of the unfolding that brought you to this present moment.
The only way to make better decisions is through contemplation, and assessing whether these choices are aligned with our greater perspective or not. Seeking our spiritual selves and immersing ourselves in the truths that govern humanity allows us to make better choices. Meditation allows us to connect with our higher selves and it distracts us from anything that doesn’t resonate with our greater perspective. Positive affirmations allows us to have faith and confidence in ourselves and the divine. These are simply tools that help us make better choices, and perhaps it may prevent future problems or allow us to cope with problems with greater wisdom.
There are challenges that are unavoidable, however, we should make it easier on ourselves by reserving some time every day for our own alignment and growth. We also need to accept that every journey has contrast and obstacles, but remember they help us define who we are and where we’re going. What’s the point of a human experience if there was nothing to learn? These choices you’re currently making in your life, aren’t they different from the choices you will make in 20 years from now? You can only assess which is the best option now and then in 20 years from now you’ll assess according to your life at that particular time.
Circumstances change and you change also, so there is no failure, just a journey and a spiritual evolution. Is there such a thing as a right choice or is there simply better choices where you currently stand? No need to relive your past failures and mistakes, since they are merely stepping stones to the new improved version of yourself and your life.
If there’s one right path for everyone, it would mean everyone would be the same and there would be no contrast and the world would be a boring place. Besides, how can you define who you are and what you want out of life if you don’t have a reference point and a platform to choose from?
When you have a decision to make, just know there’s no right or wrong approach, there are simply decisions based ideally on your life and your journey. It’s simply about making choices that are beneficial for ourselves and humanity. We’re all interconnected so when you make a choice aligned with our source and creator, then your good deed or example affects all the people in your life. That’s how we change the world one step at a time.
