CALM IS A SUPERPOWER

Whenever someone tells me to calm down i just want to punch them in the face. They think it’s a switch you can turn on and off in an instant. It’s like “Hey calm down!’’ and Boom you are now calm. And it’s not like you don’t want to be calm you wish you could, but it’s not as easy as it sounds. It almost like we were born with the defect to get rattled up just about everything. But here’s the thing, Calm isn’t your super power because you are not practicing it. What you are practicing is looking for just about anything to get mad about, to stress about. See it’s like a drug you lived with it for so long that now it’s you are wanting it. Looking for it. Feeding into it.

For example, I work at a place where i think I’ve grown to dislike everyone, why? Because there so much baggage, history, it’s like they think that I’ve been working there for so long that they have to right to add their opinion in every aspect of my life. They think they have the right to know just about everything going on in MY LIFE! It’s more like they want to something to spread and that your problems is like a gateway to entertainment. But my mistake is letting it get to me. My mistake is letting everything anger me and stress me out when all i got to do is

Stay silent about my life
Not take anything personal
Live my life and simply not stress

See its easy saying it not so much doing it. Calm is honestly a super power! And I congratulate everyone who has it. But if your struggling like me, Start working for it.

Practice to how to be calm.

NOT ALL PERSONALITIES ATTRACT

Do you Stress? You probably said yes since pretty much every human being stresses about something going on either in their life or around them. But i have noticed that I stress more about what’s going on around me than to me. Can anyone relate? I have noticed that it has really affected me and my work. Because I’m Stressing about how someone may act, think, or even live life. Look i have realized that not all personalities attract. And that’s okay. But what’s not okay is for you to let it bother you by how someone is. Everyone is different and there is not right or wrong way about it. Of course, it may bother you because you may see things differently in life and you get frustrated in wanting for them to see your perspective, but you also have to consider that your way isn’t has perfect either?

We need to understand that we will not agree with everyone and that is okay. but you can’t let that steal your joy or peace. You need to learn how to let go and let it be. You need to be able to open that door to people who may not be bad people, but you have notice they bring unhealthy emotions in your life. And look many of them will get angry with you many may even say that they shine brighter than you and you just cant handled it. HAHA I know because ive been through it. And it wasn’t that the person shined brighter than me it was that the person was so blinded by her own light she could not understand that everyone can shine just as bright. On her part i called it selfish but i now understand that i had to close that door for my own sanity because not everyone will understand your point of view and you just have to be okay with and move on with your life. And no matter how much they talk about you and say it was your fault at the end of the day you have to just let it be.

For example many may think I’m the bad guy because for me its easy to remove people from my life that prevent me from growing or just bring negative energy towards me. but you know what, I’ve learned to be alone that i have realized i don’t need a big circle to feel approved all i need is for God to know I’m trying to always do the right thing and if it takes for me to make my circle a 1 man person , then that’s how it will be because i know what i bring to the table and i am not afraid to eat alone in fact i enjoy it.

And for those out there who may feel sad that they don’t have friends or are in the need of wanting to have a circle the first thing you need to do is be okay to be by yourself and enjoy your own company. And when time passes by you will meet likeminded people but you can’t try to search for it constantly because you will end up settling and no one should ever settle in any type of relationship. Love yourself and love who you are and last but not least understand that not all personalities attract many will be in your life for just a season and others forever.

BAD IS EASY

Life is full of uncertainty. It’s just how it is. It takes for you to fall to your knees to come to terms with life. Many of us want to blame others or even God with the storms we are facing. We lose touch with ourselves because we end up shutting down . We turn off our humanity because In that way we don’t have to feel the pain that we have felt before. We become so afraid of pain and struggle that we become numb to life and let it all be. It’s almost as if we have given up. We see no point to keep trying when faced with the struggle.

But when has finding the good ever been easy? When Eve took a bit of the apple ,then that was easy and what did it lead to? Pain. Suffering. And much more worse. See what is bad for us is always easy for us. Why? Because the bad will never play hard to get. Because it wants to be caught to spoil you in every aspect of your life. Now the good? That’s a path of struggle ,of storms Because we need to dig deep and really find ourselves and that’s a path we are always afraid to take. But behind the storm is the light and the light never turns off because behind the light is the one who created it and His name is God.

Now stop giving up when the go gets tough and man up. God created you! You have talent, success, love, passion, creativity running through your veins work hard for it. And put you trust in Him and watch Him do amazing things. And when evil wants to come back in, remember, how easy it is and why would you want easy? Instead turn away and smile saying i am made for much more to just be easy. To just get things the easy way . No I am a child of God and I am capable of so much more!

STEP BY STEP

It’s all comes down to time. Time plays a big role in our life and we fear when it’s not being used correctly. But We continue on wasting it. We overthink continually getting overwhelmed because all we hear is tik tok. Tik tok. But we become so overwhelmed in not using our time correctly we get drained and do what? Nothing. We become tired and want to shut down. What’s the solution? We need to stop being so worried of the time and take it step by step. We ignore that every step becomes a success. We think it’s always a jump we must take to be fully satisfied, to see a difference. But with those jumps there’s 5 steps back. We forget that a jump is a rush in which we grow tired of doing over and over. See with steps comes rest and the want to continue. But with jump comes tiredness that we forget in order to keep growing we must keep going.

Like a drug addict or acholic it takes certain steps in order to change. Its not just one day you wake up and boom your healed. It takes time. It takes steps.

It takes realizing that overthinking of time and the future doesn’t make a change but only procrastinates you more. It takes understanding that steps are necessary in any change in your life.

Look at what you want to accomplish or goals you may have and make up small steps for them. And the key to all of this is patience. Patience in which we must understand that growth takes time but it does happen. Understanding that it takes time to see a change but that does not mean one should give up… Don’t lose hope and most importantly put your trust and God and watch Him transform your life. Believe in yourself whether it takes you a month or even a year to get there. Never give up. Never waste time in stressing about the future when you should be thinking of the now. Like what will you do in the next hour? Not in the next few weeks because those days are not here yet so why focus on it?

Let Him Take Control

When faced with trouble you realize the importance of life. Instead of drowning in your sorrowing you realize everyone has their chains trying to bring them down constantly and sometimes its even worse than yours. And in the moment, you ask for forgiveness knowing that what you’re dealing with now may be tough for you but not the worst thing that you could be going through. And in the moment, you realized you are blessed.

Give all your sorrows to God and just let go. Let go of the pain, doubt, worry, stress everything and watch God be in control because that is how it should have been look at Abraham, Moses, Isaac They did not take a step-in life without consulting God first. Why? Because they knew with God ,everything will be okay but without God it was just a guessing game and bad mistakes.

If you take control of your own life it like asking a dice to land on 6. It will always be a guessing game. But when you Let the creator of Life take control ,everything will be placed exactly how it should be. When we humans finally realized the truth of life that Without God our life is just a puzzle or domino effect. We start understanding the truth as to why God is always with us. God will let you decide always but he just hopes you choose Him.

DROWNING

We all get absorbed in how our life’s will be in the future we forget to enjoy the present. We lose touch with the now because we are too busy planning the future. When we come to realize all, we do is plan but don’t put any actions behind it. We are so good at planning that when it comes to taking action we don’t know when and where to start. But this is actually false for we do know where to start for we planned for it! But we let fear overpower us into think we are not capable enough. And then it all comes down to mentality. We always want to ignore this step because we think that we are fine. That this step is not necessary. But let me tell you my friends it is completely necessary. If you do

Not change your mentality in the way you view life and yourself you will get nowhere! And why do I know this? It is because I’m here right now realizing it. I asked God continuously why my life hasn’t changed if I planned every step

Of my life? And here is what I noted

1: my mentality was too focused on the future that I began to lose focus on the now and felt like well still feel like I’m drowning.

2: Too much planning not enough doing

Here’s the thing, you will not achieve things in life by sitting on your ass all the time. Life does not care you work forty hours a week it’s not going to reward you for having the excuse that you are not improving your life because your too tired in working for someone else. If you really want to change your life, then you got to prove it! And it will take sweat, sleepless nights. It will take for you to take the things that are distracting you in life in order to save your life! For instance, tv. Remove the things that are not serving you any good. That it is not improving your life.

3: I was too absorbed in the Money.

Look I know money is a Necessity especially even more now since everything is going up. But here’s the thing if you let that drown your thoughts then you will lose the power in to wanting to work harder. Once you realize that you cannot give too much importance to money you will see how happy you will become.

4: Last but not least Let go and let God

So many times, I here God speaking to me to let Him work again this does not mean you get to be lazy but what it does mean you need to stop worrying or finding ways to escape when God is telling He got it! We have to fully trust in. And yes there will be moments you will feel like your drowning but it will soon pass

You have to have faith and do the best you can to change your Mentality and become a happier human being for you need to remember Tomorrow is not promised.

Have Faith

Hi👋🏻

This is being written by my phone because I couldn’t wait to write this down. Do you now when you think of something to write but you do have time to get to a paper and pen or your laptop so you end forgetting what you even wanted to write about. Well that won’t be me. At least not this time 😂. I wanted to talk about that when it gets tough and everything seems to crumble down, this is when God is working in your life but here’s the thing, you have to trust in Him because if you don’t and you decided to take care of things on your own your just pausing Gods great plan for you. All because you thought you weren’t capable of going though what your going through now. All because you thought it was too hard to handle. Look you are strong and God had you equipped to handle just about anything you have to stop limiting yourself and declaring the worst. Have Faith and watch it all unfold for the the Better.❣️ Right now you are Under construction by God. And He knows what He is doing.

ONCE APON A WISH…

One day when i was 15 years old, I had a great desire to win a raffle. Have you guys ever heard of a website called Swag bucks? Well that’s where I spent most of my afternoons. Swag bucks has many cool things to do to win some cool things or some extra cash. It was never much but for a 15-year-old it was everything. One afternoon I went to go check the raffles to see which one I wanted to join. And there it was, what I’ve been asking for since last Christmas. An XBOX Kinect!

Every point I earned went straight to that raffle. See I never entered a raffle because I never believed you could actually win one. Since it was a 1 and a millionth chance , But this time was different I saw what I wanted and I forgot about the doubts, disbeliefs, the chances you actually have to win one . In order to win something, you need to spend a lot, but I mean allot of time on their website.

There was one message replaying in my head over and over. That if you believe and declare you shall receive. So i knew it was true. When I was 15, I was innocent like most 15 year old’s are. My friends? MY Lovely God and of course my amazing Mother. I didn’t have anyone else. You may see it has sad like I did before but today I realize that those were the best times. No gossips, no stress, no hate, just simply love.

So I got to work and i started praying every single day, I even wrote it done. My words were” Lord thank you because I won the Xbox!” I repeated that verse for about a month and when the days got closer for the raffle to close I declared even more. No doubt entered my mind. Even if people around me doubted. People will say “Well you know Lian those raffles are either rigged or like the mega million too many people play for you to be that lucky one.” But I didn’t care what they said for I knew my faith was strong.

I even prayed to God with tears down my face, because that’s how passionate I was for this Xbox! I prayed “Lord I know this isn’t even important for I know I should be praying for far more important things in this world but God I really want this so please I pray and declared that the Xbox is in my hands that the Xbox is mine . The day came! I was shaking waiting for the bell to ring for me to hurry up and get out of school. And when it finally did, i ran as fast as I could .Praying and declaring even louder. My lips shaking every step i took home is every step i thanked the Lord for the Xbox i will soon receive in the mail. Feeling like i was about to tear up, i praised the Lord in that very moment. Oh God you are great Thank you!

And when i finally made it to the steps of my house i ran inside to get my computer and opened up the page and guess what. It said in big green letter, WINNNER CONGRAGULATIONS!

All i could do was cry for God’s love was so big that even for something so unimportant like a console He simply gave it to me. Why? Because through the doubt I stayed strong i declared every moment i had that was an example God was giving me then to never ever doubt.

I decided to share this story because last week i asked God why is that when I pray and declared i see nothing happening any more? And when I spoke this prayer to the Lord this memory came back and all I heard was

“You prayed, you declared but you also worked hard every day for it. “

See now I’m just declaring and laying in bed waiting for it fall from the sky like If God was some genie But back then God was right not only did i pray and declared every day after school and before bed I would dedicate a couple hours in swag bucks earning as many points as I could to enter in the raffle. It was like a job for me.

I was 15 years old and I didn’t care about watching tv or going outside I cared about giving as much time as I could to earning points to seeing results.

So, God is showing me now that it’s not just declaring and bam its yours. its proving to God you really want it! And if you do then Hard work won’t seem hard to you. Because you should be passionate about giving every moment you have for what you are declaring for! And not feed in to the doubt. I want to go back to that 15-year-old mentality where i never fed into doubt. Where I smiled to anyone that doubted because they did not know My God! Or my passion for it. And that was the difference then and now.

Happiness

Happiness. How to get to it? By simply being true to yourself. By spiritually listening to your inner self. Guiding yourself towards what drives your spirit towards happiness. A simple life is no longer appreciated. We ruin our own spirits by overwhelming it with the toxins of the world.

We forget to heal and take care of our spirits and little by little we burn it into flames. We start becoming robots accustomed to this world and how society works. We forget our truest calling, our purest dreams. But this world makes us believe just that, That its all dreams that cannot come true for we are controlled by this world. But we must break free from all these fed up lies. Break free! God always wanted us to be free not to be controlled/ manipulated. Learn that you can change your life for the better because those chains tying you up, you created the knots for. You have the Power to choose Happiness. You have the power to cleanse yourself. Stop letting hate, anger, laziness,money,society, overwhelm and control you. In order to find real happiness you need to stop putting you focus and attention to unnecessary things. Eliminate what angers you. Heal from your past and create a new path full of joy, peace, and a open mind to grow.

I’m going to get more personal and talk about my life and the mistakes I’ve made in the past and honestly being 100 percent real with you guys I still continue to do so, but I’m still learning . There is time where I let jealousy and sometimes anger overpower me. I let it transform me into someone I don’t want to be. I begin to over stress and it is all I think about. Like most I have people that i dislike and of course the feeling is mutual. Before, I will let any little thing change my happiness and peace to flaming anger. My fault is that I let it affect me. I let it absorb me and I let it affect my spiritual health. Now I’m beginning to learn to not let anything control me. I also change my mindset and don’t take things personal. I go about my business and you know what. The people that disliked me actually have backed off. You know why? Because i build this bubble of peace within me that they could no longer break. And they noticed that whatever they did or say was no longer affect the way i felt. I continued to stay at peace within myself and I let God guide me in what i say, how I think and How I act. And yes, there are times where it does affect me but i know that it takes time to fully understand that we are humans and humans make mistakes. I am trying to Spiritually heal myself so i can find ultimate happiness.

Work each and every day to change your mindset and meditate on wanting to be free from all emotions that control you. Learn to let go. Learn to find happiness in the simplicity of Life. And most of all Like God learn to Always love even if it’s not given to you. Learn to forgive even if you feel like you shouldn’t.

Are you ready to Start From the very Beginning ?

God from the very beginning created simplicity. Simplicity out of the most beautiful creation He drew from His very Spirit. But from the good there was always an opening for the root of evil. God wanted to believe that because we were created by His own image then we cannot be persuaded. And what did the human race bring? Disappointment. And within that disappointment God still had mercy, Love, and Undying forgivingness.

No matter what we do, God’s love grows more and more. His Forgivingness never fails. He is always there! Protecting us, guiding is, and always hoping we come back to Him. Life will always bring hardships. That’s how it’s been from the very first bite of a forbidden apple but through that pain We must realize God is with us. For He continue to forgive us and love us just the same always and forever.

Why can’t we do the same? Why do we make life so complicated? When from the very beginning it was supposed to be simple. Go back to the simplicity of life and see your life change. Listen to that small inner voice speaking to you. Set it free and do your hearts passions. We are all born with a dream something God calls treasure. What are you waiting for to set your Spirit free? To be true to yourself. Because that’s what God intended from the very beginning. And that is why we were warned not to eat the forbidden apple because not only did we allow evil to come in, but we allowed pain, stress, anger, hatred, jealousy, and much more to control us.

God’s dream?

He dreamed of humans in His own image just like the scriptures says. And you know what that fully means? To do what you were created to do! See God had a dream and He made it happen out of nothing. So, because we come from that divine love and Creativity, then we are able to do the same. But we must not let all the bad control us. We must be free of all of the chains of anger, hatred, and jealousy. Whose ready to Start Fresh?
