We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence is not an act, but a habit. – Aristotle

Thought for today – There’s no wrong or right way, just strive for excellence.

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! I sure hope you and your family are in good health. My family is healthy and safe, but we’re still trying to wrap our heads around the schools being closed for 3 weeks starting tomorrow. This brings me to this week’s discussion.

At any time, we have to brace ourselves for various life’s challenges, such as the coronavirus outbreak, massive school closings, national emergency being put in place, etc. Sometimes we’re ready to face the challenges head on and other times we are caught off guard which leads to stress and anxiety. Often times we are in panic mode or find ourselves just falling to our knees crying out to God. Today, I want to encourage you to strive for excellence throughout your journey especially during these difficult times.

WAYS TO STRIVE FOR EXCELLENCE

Excellence is not a skill, it’s an attitude. – Ralph Marston

To begin with, let’s define excellence. According to the Webster Dictionary, excellence (noun) is defined as the quality of being outstanding or extremely good. Now, do not confuse striving for excellence with striving for perfection (being free from all flaws or defects). It’s important to note that they are not one and the same. Also, keep in mind that your journey will be different from my journey or someone else’s, but in the end, we are still striving to push harder than yesterday so we can have a better tomorrow.

Here’s some ways to strive for excellence throughout life:

• Find time to pray and meditate often
• Practice gratitude – keep a list and be sincere
• Schedule time to exercise and get it done – no excuses are allowed
• Keep a success journal and reflect on your written words often
• Identify your values and stick to them
• Learn something new every day – online courses, reading, watching informative videos, listening to podcasts

HOW TO OVERCOME CHALLENGES

Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection, we can catch excellence. – Vince Lombardi

Despite how things may be going in your life right now, it’s important to learn how to overcome challenges that may occur in your life from time to time. Let’s face it, life happens to the best of us whether we’re ready or not. In some cases, these challenges may be life changing, such as a death of a loved one, a terrible accident or a medical diagnosis. As you navigate throughout life, be a reflection of what you’d like to receive. Don’t over complicate the process. What you give out throughout your journey, will always return back to you. Make sure to give love, truth and respect every day.

Here’s some suggestions to help you overcome challenges:

• Embrace self-awareness
• Use time to your advantage, don’t procrastinate
• Commit to focused discipline
• Engage your own creativity
• Think BIG, be proactive and set goals
• Re-evaluate your daily tasks
• Don’t be afraid to ask for help from family, friends or co-workers

EXCELLENCE AFFIRMATIONS

My goal is not to be better than anyone else but better than I used to be. – Unknown Author

Remember, everything in your life is a reflection of a choice you have made. If you want a different result, make a different choice. Now, repeat the excellence affirmations noted below:

• I am a woman or man of excellence.
• I am kind, smart and can accomplish my goals.
• I am increasingly excellent in all that I think, say and do.
• I attract love and excellence into my life.
• I demonstrate excellence within me.
• I strive for excellence and thirst for knowledge.
• The energy of excellence is infused into my very being.

Close your eyes and take a deep breath. Now, open your eyes and recite these powerful words again. Take a moment to add some additional excellence affirmations to make this list complete.

A successful woman is one who can build a firm foundation with the bricks, others have thrown at her. – Unknown Author

Thought for today – Be focused. Be persistent. Never quit. One day or day one. You decide.

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! So glad you have returned for more uplifting inspiration that comes from within. Always remember you have within you, right now, everything you need to deal with whatever the world can throw at you. Do you believe this on today? Sometimes you have to be your own hero. Just because you are struggling throughout your journey does not mean you are failing. Keep believing and the good things will happen. The one who falls and gets back up is so much stronger than the one who never fell at all.

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY

She believed she could, so she did. – Unknown Author

Today, many of us celebrated International Women’s Day! International Women’s Day is celebrated on March 8 every year. It is a day set aside to honor the achievements of women throughout history and all across the globe.

Theme for 2020 – I am Generation Equality: Realizing Women’s Rights

2020 is a pivotal year for:

• Women from all different backgrounds and cultures to unite as one.
• Women to fight for gender parity and women’s rights.
• Advancing gender equality worldwide so women’s voices can be heard.

As we go through life fulfilling our dreams and aspirations, remember a satisfied life is better than a successful life. Because our success is measured by others, but our satisfaction is measured by our own soul, mind and heart.

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God. Ephesians 2:8

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! Well, here’s to another wonderful and blessed week! Would you agree? Despite what you have experienced throughout the week, be thankful that you are here today to speak about it and read my inspirational blog.

With that said, let’s WELCOME MARCH with a spiritual discussion concerning “FAITH”. Your faith can move mountains and your doubt can create them. Now, what is your understanding of this statement? Well, it’s quite simple. You must believe in your heart and mind that you will receive whatever it is that you are praying for throughout your journey. No mountain is too big for our God. I always think of a mountain as any obstacle, problem, or situation that happens in our lives throughout the journey. Unfortunately, if you’re not careful, some mountains can destroy relationships and break up happy homes.

TAKE A STEP BACK

Faith is all about believing. You don’t know how it will happen, but you know it will. – Unknown Author

Throughout our journey, it would be nice if we could backtrack and start over from time to time without harming anyone along the way. But how did we get to the point where we want to press the reset button? For some of us, we try to learn from our mistakes which causes us to wonder why we made them in the first place. Retracing our steps helps us remember who we are and where we come from throughout the faith process. This means spending time in meditation and prayer. Then, looking at your current situation to see where we may have taken the wrong turn.

APOLOGIZE

Faith isn’t a feeling. It’s a choice to trust God even when the road ahead seems uncertain. – Dave Willis

Next, it is time to apologize for our mistakes if you have hurt someone along the way. How awful we must feel, right? For some people apologizing and asking for forgiveness is too hard to handle alone. In most cases, our pride stands in the way of apologizing to make someone else feel better. It is important to retrace our steps and learn how we should be honest to not just ourselves, but also to others. We should all strive to learn and grow from our mistakes. This learning and growing experience is not meant to be easy, but it is a necessary step in this learning and faith process.

MAKE AMENDS

Don’t dig up in doubt what you planted in faith. – Elisabeth Elliot

Then, it is time to make amends with those who we have done wrong. In some cases, amends can be straight forward and in other cases it can be quite messy. But nevertheless, be true and honest to yourself. Put everything you have into this faith process to amend your relationships and receive the much needed forgiveness from the person(s) in question.

MOVE ON

I choose faith over anxiety hope over worry love over fear. – Unknown Author

Then, the final step in this faith process is the time to prepare yourself to move on. Remember, it is good to ponder on your mistakes, but don’t let them shame you or make you think you are alone throughout the faith process. No matter how big our mistakes seem in life, God’s love can help us through those darkest days. Simply put, we shall be well and rise again. Just let go, release, and move on.

CHANGE YOUR MINDSET

A mind troubled by doubt cannot focus on the course to victory. – Arthur Golden

As you set yourself up for success throughout this mindful journey, please keep these things in mind as you begin to increase faith and change your mindset:

• Positive thoughts equal positive outcomes

• Admit that your thinking needs to be adjusted

• Seek positive support from family, friends, support groups

• Immerse yourself in personal growth – Read inspirational books or listen to positive speakers

• Forward thinking will move your focus away from where you don’t want to be to where could be

Finally, improving your life starts with improving your growth mindset.

• Write in your journal every day.

• Write thank you notes to people who help you throughout your journey.

• Read positive affirmations and quotes.

• Write a Wins Checklist based on your best experiences and accomplishments.

BENEFITS OF MINDFULNESS MEDITATION

The real meditation practice is how we live our lives from moment to moment to moment. – Jon Kabat-Zinn

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! For the last couple of weeks, I have been practicing meditation each day thanks to my wonderful friend Ray at therayjourney.com – #TheRayChallenge – Small steps, BIG changes. I have to admit, practicing meditation daily has given me a new look on life.

Today, let’s spread the word about how to be mindful in every day living can help people who suffer from anxiety and depression. So, what is mindfulness? Mindfulness is a type of meditation that involves using the senses to pay attention to what’s happening around you and inside you, in the here and now.

Here’s some benefits of mindfulness meditation:

• Get better sleep.

• Lower stress levels.

• Banish temporary negative feelings.

• Improve attention to details.

• Manage chronic pain.

• Reduce anxiety and help prevent depression relapse.

• Make progress toward your weight-loss goals.

LIVE IN THE MOMENT

Mindfulness is being present without judgment in every moment. – Unknown Author

In addition, to be mindful is a way of being with yourself and perceiving the world around you that can help you live your life more peacefully and with greater balance. Well, as I researched the mindfulness concept, I kept coming across the words “LIVE IN THE MOMENT”. I do realize that if you suffer from anxiety or depression, it is quite difficult to just live in the moment from day to day.

Here’s some ways to help you live in the moment:

• Take small steps throughout the process or transition.

• Remember, slow and steady wins the race.

• Try to embrace the freshness of each day.

• Analyze beauty of now in this very moment.

• Do everything with pure joy and happiness.

• Accept your weak points or imperfections in life, then work on them one at a time.

• Strive to free yourself from all distracting thoughts by journaling your true feelings.

TO BE MINDFUL IS NOT

You must learn to master a new way to think before you can master a new way to be. – Marianne Williamson

Now, it is important to really understand what it truly means to be mindful and what mindful is not. To be mindful is living in your present moment rather than in your anxious thoughts and feelings. Also, to be mindful allows you to explore, invite, and be compassionate with anxiety and difficult emotions, which in turn reduces their power over us.

Here are some examples of what to be mindful is not:

• A quick-fix trick – It’s important to keep practicing mindfulness over time.

• Religious – It’s not part of a religion and it does not involve beliefs or practices that conflict with any religion.

• Something separate from you – The capacity to be mindful comes from within.

• Time-Limited – The more you practice mindfulness, the better it works.

• Something you have to drop everything for – Mindfulness is a mindset and way of life that fits in with where you are and what you’re doing.

• A magic wand or cure-all – It’s an effective tool that you can use to choose your focus, reduce anxiety, and still face problems but live a quality life.

• Just for people who are already relaxed – Mindfulness is a powerful way of taking charge of your anxiety and helping you become relaxed and full of inner peace.

• Always easy – Mindfulness is a skill that must be developed over time, so don’t give up.

WAYS TO BE MINDFUL THROUGHOUT LIFE

No amount of guilt can change the past and no amount of anxiety can change the future. – Unknown Author

Every day we have many opportunities to practice mindfulness. Have you ever wondered what it means to live in the present? Well, here’s some ways to be mindful throughout life:

• Observe your breathing throughout the day. You momentarily free yourself from your thoughts, worries and fears. The quality of our breath tells us a lot about our state of being. When the breath is slow and steady, we are calm and peaceful. When the breath is constricted, we are tense.

• When possible, eat silently and slowly. Eat nourishing food and taste every bite. Enjoy the smell of your food and how it looks on your plate. Think about the texture of the food. Recognize your non-hunger triggers to break compulsive overeating.

• Notice your outside environment – sunlight, rain, the wind, trees, sights and sounds. What is your state of mind and your thoughts as you run your daily errands? Are you in the present moment or thinking about what you will be doing next?

• Walk mindfully by paying attention to the movement of your body and your surroundings. Notice as your feet connect with and leave the ground. Feel your muscles moving and supporting you.

• Listen wholeheartedly. Next time you’re in a conversation, make it your goal to fully listen to what the other person is saying to you, without getting lost in your thoughts. Trust that you will know the right thing to say next when it’s your turn to speak.

• Get lost in the flow of doing things you love. We all have certain activities we love doing. They connect us with our inner spirit and bring us fully alive. Whether it is cooking, dancing, singing, gardening, journaling, writing, painting, swimming or sewing, schedule time to do it and enjoy it.

• Meditate daily. There’s no getting around it, meditation has huge benefits and increases your levels of energy, happiness, inspiration and inner peace. Remember, even 10 minutes per day can have a positive impact on your life.

Courage Above Fear

LaPorterFebruary 16, 20206 Replies

Having courage does not mean that we are unafraid. Having courage mean we face our fears. We are able to say, “I have fallen, but I will get up.” – Maya Angelou

Affiliate Disclaimer: This site contains affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission if you purchase through any of the links (at no additional cost to you).

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! Knowing when to walk away is wisdom. Being able to is courage. Walking away, with your head high is dignity. Now, think about that for a moment. What does courage mean to you right now in this very moment? Your honest response would be a great journal entry if you want to reflect on it later.

According to the Webster Dictionary, courage is defined as the ability to do something that frightens one and the strength to withstand in the face of danger, fear, difficulty, pain or grief. So, how does one take courage to the next level? There is no right or wrong answer here. Everyone handles situations in their lives differently.

WAYS TO HELP BOOST YOUR COURAGE

Courage doesn’t mean you don’t get afraid. Courage means you don’t let fear stop you. – Unknown Author

However, many situations occur in life that call upon us to do something we find scary, upsetting, uncomfortable, anxiety provoking, or distressing. We have to learn how to move out of our comfort zone throughout this journey called life, so we can develop, grow, and expand both our mental and physical capacity. Are you up for the challenge? I sure hope you are.

Here’s some ways to help boost your courage:

• Don’t overthink it. Once you’ve decided to do anything in life that requires courage, don’t wait, proceed to act.

• Commit yourself ahead of time. Schedule an appointment or tell others when and where you plan to attend the activity. Committing yourself ahead of time or stating intentions to your support system will make you be accountable and you will follow through with the activity.

• Do the activity with a friend. Recruit a friend or family member to participate in the activity. Interacting with another person is a true way of managing fear and anxiety.

• Think of how good you’ll feel afterwards. Give some serious thought to how great you’ll feel about yourself after you take this leap of faith. You will feel more confident and increase your determination.

• Think of the doors that would open for you. If you struggle with courage and anxiety issues, you may need to seek help from a mental health professional or support group. Take some time to consider all the ways your life could be different if you were able to tackle your issue(s) successfully and use the motivation this process gives you to take the necessary step.

THREE LIFE RULES

Fear is a reaction. Courage is a decision. – Winston S. Churchill

Here’s three life rules to live by:

1. If you don’t go after what you want, you’ll never have it.
2. If you don’t ask, the answer will always be no.
3. If you don’t step forward, you will always be in the same place.

PRAYER FOR STRENGTH AND COURAGE

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you stop to look fear in the face. – Eleanor Roosevelt

Heavenly Father, I want to hear from you on today. Speak to me right now in this very moment. Teach me how to hear you in my heart. Please show me what you want me to do to live out my calling. Give me the strength and courage. In Jesus Mighty Name, AMEN.

BONUS – After you pray to God, wait and listen. Then, journal what you hear and have the courage to share with a family member, a friend, or a mentor you trust. Remember, the best way to grow in your ability to hear God is to practice and let others help you.

• Describe an area of your life in which you wish you were more courageous? What is it, and how would you benefit?

Despite the fear you may feel because you are entering an unknown territory, embrace your true feelings and know that courage is not just around you, but within you.

According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, self-love can be defined as an appreciation of one’s own worth or virtue. Self-love begins when we observe our actions and words with compassion as if we were our own best friend.

In addition, self-love is:

• Being honest about your current choices and thought patterns.

• Not selfish, but it forces you to undertake new practices that reflect self-worth.

• The way we see ourselves and how we treat ourselves.

• The motivation you need to make healthy choices in life.

• A safe place for you to share self-reflection.

• The gift that keeps giving.

• A way that cultivates a mindset of gratitude.

Finally, self-love is often times taught to us as children and as we grow, we begin to nurture everything within us, both good and bad.

Now, here’s something to think about. Self-love, self-respect, self-worth, self-care. What do these words have in common? There is a reason they all start with “self” because you cannot find them in anyone else.

Clear your mind and think about the questions below:

• Do you say yes when you really mean no?

• Do you seem to break promises to yourself often?

• Do you neglect your self-care routine over and over again?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you need to self-evaluate your life right now and begin to embrace self-love once again.

AMAZON RESOURCE # 1

To begin with, here’s a great way to get started on your self-love adventure:

• Find some ME TIME

• Write in your journal

• Read an inspirational book

• Take a long walk and enjoy nature

• Exercise or do yoga

• Take a nap

• Relax and do nothing

WAYS TO EMBRACE SELF-LOVE

What you think, you become. What you feel, you attract. What you imagine, you create. – Buddha

Before you can receive love and respect from others, you need to love and respect yourself. Keep in mind, self-love keeps us grounded and present. Self-love is not simply a state of feeling good, it is a state of appreciation for oneself that grows from actions that support our physical, psychological, and spiritual growth.

Here’s some ways to embrace self-love:

• Take time for yourself first thing in the morning and right before bed time. Pray, read God’s Word, write in your journal, read a book, drink a cup of coffee, meditate, do yoga, take a warm bath, etc.

• Exercise and don’t be afraid to mix it up. Exercise does the body good. Find something you love, but always try something new too. Do cardio one day and strength training another day.

• Give yourself more grace. Stop comparing yourself to others, but instead extend yourself grace.

• Tune out negative and toxic people. Limit your time and interaction with these people. Simply say no to the negativity and focus on the positivity in your life.

• Get plenty of sleep. Set a bedtime for yourself and stick to it – No Excuses!

• Don’t be shy and ask for help. Balance out your planner and daily tasks. Assign some stuff to your family or friends. Don’t feel guilty in doing so.

WAYS TO PRACTICE SELF-LOVE

When I accept myself, I am freed from the burden of needing you to accept me. – Dr. Steve Maraboli

Moreover, self-love is important to living a well-balanced life. Would you agree? After all, everyone needs to practice self-love at some time or another, right? When we act in ways that expand self-love in us, we begin to accept ourselves more in the moment, have less need to explain away our short-comings, are more centered in our life purpose and values, and expect living fulfillment through our own efforts.

Here’s some ways to practice self-love:

• Become mindful. People who practice self-love often tend to know what they think, feel, and want. They are mindful of who they are and act on this knowledge, rather than on what others want for them.

• Create a self-care routine that you practice regularly. Nourish yourself daily through healthy activities, like nutrition, exercise, proper sleep, intimacy, and healthy social interactions.

• Set healthy boundaries. You’ll love yourself more when you set limits or say no to work, love, or activities that deplete you physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

• Protect yourself at all times. Protect yourself by allowing the right people into your life.

• Forgive yourself. Practice being less hard on yourself when you make a mistake. Remember, there are no failures. There are only lessons learned.

• Live intentionally. Live with purpose and design. Make plans and accomplish what you set out to do. You need to establish your living intentions, to do this.

I have found that when I make time to practice self-love on a regular basis, I am a better wife, mom, friend, and co-worker. I am more disciplined throughout my day, feel rested, and ready to conquer the world.

SELF-LOVE AFFIRMATIONS

You alone are enough. You have nothing to prove to anyone. – Maya Angelou

Like I’ve stated before, self-love is not selfish. You cannot love another person until you know how to love yourself. Work on being in love with the person in the mirror who has been through much, but is still standing.

Look in a mirror today and say these words out loud – I love myself today because I am beautiful, I am strong, I am powerful, I am fabulous, I am unique, I am blessed, I am smart. Repeat this exercise at least 3 times per day.

Here’s some self-love affirmations that you can practice daily:

• I accept and approve myself completely here and now.

• I am healing more and more every day.

• I am surrounded by love and prosperity.

• I am worthy of all the blessings coming my way.

• I release all doubts and insecurities about myself.

• I am resilient and can get through anything.

• I am worthy of loving and being loved.

• I value myself.

• I am an unstoppable force.

• I am proud of who I am.

• I nourish my body with healthy food and exercise.

• I am beautiful, kind, and smart.

• I spread love to those around me and it returns in abundance.

Now, be creative and create your own self-love affirmations to describe yourself. Allow this to be your daily pep talk in the morning and repeat them throughout the day. Remember, you cannot truly love another person until you know how to love yourself. Loving yourself enough to realize you deserve a happy and fulfilled life. Well, I challenge you today to practice self-love and appreciate yourself just the way you are. When you learn to love you, then others will love you the way you deserve to be loved in return.

Time Is Precious

Time is a created thing. To say I don’t have time is to say I don’t want to. – Lao Tzu

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! Time has a wonderful way of showing us what really matters. Honestly, it feels like forever since I’ve written a blog post and it was only last Sunday. I want to apologize for not publishing at least two blog posts last week. Between my new work schedule, family life obligations, and my boy’s mid-term schedule, I did not have extra time to write. Therefore, this hectic work week helped me realize my limitations with working full-time so my new goal will be to publish at least one inspiring blog post per week.

GOAL #1 – WRITING & BLOGGING

The purpose of the first draft is not to get it right, but to get it written. – John Dufresne

Well, like I’ve stated before, 2020 has started off busy for me, but in a positive way. For starters, on the writing front, I have decided to create the following writing and blogging goals:

• Write & publish my first Renew Inspiration book – 1st draft complete [2020 – 2021]
• Continue and improve my Renew Inspiration blog [On-Going]
• Strive to keep journaling, reading, writing, and meditating [On-Going]
• Network with other talented authors and bloggers [On-Going]
• Support other bloggers by reading their material & commenting [On-Going]

Overall, I have really enjoyed this blogging experience while connecting with you and have met so many awesome bloggers along the way. I felt it necessary to document my writing goals again this year in a blog post to keep me grounded on what’s important in my life, right now, in this very moment. In addition, I want to be accountable to my overall writing career and make plans to reach all of these goals. Why now you ask? Because I feel time is precious and I want to enjoy my passion which is writing.

GOAL #2 – WORK-LIFE BALANCE

Never get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life. – Unknown Author

Next, I plan to create a healthy work-life balance after accepting a full-time Secretary position in December 2019. This has been a great opportunity for me overall, but I need more time to adjust to my “new normal”. I really enjoy my new job, but there’s so much information to learn, new systems to analyze, and family obligations to juggle.

I realize my extra time is very limited and most days I find myself re-thinking my daily tasks when I need to be at work earlier for workshop prep which includes early drop offs and pickups for my boys. Oh, I cannot forget to mention the same thing happens if there are no school, early dismissal days or the boys have a therapy session to attend.

As you can see, I’ve been struggling to balance my full-time work, family obligations and writing projects which are all dear to my heart. My husband is very supportive throughout this process and have stepped up to help, but it is still very stressful and difficult for me to find a healthy work-life balance while adjusting to my new work schedule.

Special Thought – And sometimes against all odds, against all logic, we still hope.

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! Before I get into today’s topic, I want to discuss what’s going on in my life. Now, that I am back working full-time during the week, it’s important that I create a new writing and blogging schedule for 2020. After thinking about this in great detail, I decided to share inspirational posts with you twice per week based on a normal work/family week (no workshops, long therapy sessions, school activities, etc.) My goal is to encourage you based on topics related to improving your MIND, BODY and SPIRIT.

INTRODUCTION – HOPE

When the world says, “give up.” Hope whispers “try it one more time.” – Unknown Author

There’s so much darkness in the world today! For example, our televisions are filled with negative news stories about racism, murders, kidnappings, corrupt politics, violence in our schools, etc. With that in mind, let’s talk about hope to help improve our way of thinking. Hope is another one of those words that can be defined on a personal level and may change from situation to situation; or person to person.

Here’s some questions to think about:

• How do you relate to the concept of hope?

• What does hope mean to you?

• Do you hope for anything great on today or in the near future?

When I think of hope, I think of beauty and positive vibes. Hope is like a beautiful flower that thrives on sunlight and water. In a spiritual sense, hope relies on your daily commitment to God’s Word, meditation, and prayer.

DEFINITIONS – HOPE & HOPEFUL

Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness. – Desmond Tutu

According to the Oxford Dictionary, here’s the definitions of hope and hopeful:

• Hope is a feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen; a feeling of trust. (noun)

• Hopeful is a feeling or inspiring optimism about a future event. (adjective)

AMAZON RESOURCE #2

BUILDING A FOUNDATION OF HOPE

Never lose hope. Just when you think it’s over, God sends you a miracle. – Unknown Author

To begin with, hope is a portion or part of faith. Often times hope is defined in the spiritual sense when God has promised that something is going to happen in our lives and you put your trust in that promise. You find confidence deep down within that something will come to pass because God promised it will come to pass. Remember, hope comes from the promises of God rooted in the work of Christ.

Here’s some steps to help you build a solid foundation of hope that will carry you through the storms of life:

• Step 1 – Submit yourself to God. God is the source of our hope. Come to God in humility and He will restore you.

• Step 2 – Strengthen your faith. Allow God’s previously fulfilled promises from the Holy Bible to renew your hope.

• Step 3 – Trust God’s timing. Remember, sometimes God answers prayers quickly and at other times God allows us to wait.

• Step 4 – Thank God today. Every day set time aside to thank God, read God’s Word, pray, and meditate.

WAYS TO RESTORE YOUR HOPE

I am not an optimist, but a great believer of hope. – Nelson Mandela

Did you know that having hope will give you courage in the midst of a storm? Hope is seeing light in spite of being surrounded by darkness. Hope is the only thing stronger than fear. Hope is the ability to hear the melody of the future. Despite what you may be experiencing in your life right now, never stop believing in hope because miracles happen every day.

Here’s some ways to restore your hope:

• Be kind to yourself and others.

• Listen to another person’s story.

• Treat each day like a precious gift.

• Look for meaning in the most challenging moments.

• Reconnect with nature.

• Focus on your spirit and shift your expectations.

• Listen to music and channel your energy into productive change.

• Show gratitude and compassion.

• Think about the essential goodness of humanity and volunteer.

AMAZON RESOURCE #3

The importance of hope is immeasurable. Continue to seek out positivity and recognize you can change your life at any point. Many of us need to look forward to the future. Hope is what helps us deal with grief, find positives in our current situation, help us continue searching for something better, and to have faith that everything will work out. Never lose hope. You never know what tomorrow may bring. Until next time, peace, love, and hope to you and your family!

Spiritual Breakthrough

Sometimes it takes an overwhelming breakdown to have an undeniable breakthrough. – Unknown Author

Special Thought – When you pray, God listens. When you listen, God talks. When you believe, God responds. Amen.

Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! Let’s welcome 2020 in with a spiritual breakthrough! Before I begin, I want to thank you for believing in me and supporting my blogging endeavors. I don’t know about you, but I am putting 2019 behind me and planning to have a much more productive and spiritual year ahead. How about you?

Sometimes I just sit and think about everything that life throws at us from day to day…from hour to hour…from minute to minute! For some of us, this experience can be very difficult to manage throughout this journey called life. We depend on support from family and friends to help us through these challenging times. For me, I pick up a pen and my notebook, then just start writing.

DEFINE SPIRITUAL BREAKTHROUGH

There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you. – Maya Angelou

Spiritual breakthrough can be defined as a process of removing spiritual obstacles to your spiritual walk with God. When someone says, “I need a breakthrough”, they are usually experiencing a time when they feel like heaven is closed and God is not moving.

KEYS TO SPIRITUAL BREAKTHROUGH

Stop trying to calm the storm. Calm yourself, the storm will pass. – Unknown Author

Whichever way you choose to release this negative energy is good, the most important thing, is to release it. However, some people are not that fortunate. They have to face these hard times alone. As we move throughout life, it is important to know if we’re on the right course to reach our spiritual breakthrough. Whether you believe in a God or a Higher Power, we all want to make sense of where we are being led and by whom.

Here’s the keys to spiritual breakthrough:

• Call on the Name of Jesus – It is important to note that we cannot experience our spiritual breakthrough until we first receive and believe in Jesus Christ. We do this by calling on His Name to save us. Through His blood we are reconciled to God. (Romans 10:13)

• Prayer and Fasting – Often the spiritual breakthroughs we need are brought about through prayer, not by asking favors of people. Tune out the background noise of life and trust in the power of prayer. Then, start storming the gates of heaven through prayer and fasting. (Ephesians 6:12)

• Faith – Faith is one of the most essential ingredients of healthy daily Christianity. Remember, it is not enough to just pray about something. We need to pray with faith and confidence in our gracious and Heavenly Father who rewards us when we diligently seek Him. (Hebrews 11:6)

• Alignment with God’s Will – We need God to give us new and better desires that are pleasing to Him. Focus on what really matters. Learn how to listen to God by spending quality time in God’s Word. (I John 5:14)

• Patience – Often we do not receive what we are praying for right away. We must pray with persistence and patience while trusting God. (Hebrews 6:12)

• Forgiveness – Forgiveness is not an emotion in life, it is a choice. Sometimes a choice you need to make on a daily basis, to forgive as Christ commanded you. God will strengthen you to be able to forgive, when you don’t feel you can. (Matthew 6:14-15)

• Repent – Surrendering your whole life to Christ in repentance, and giving Him access to be Lord over all of your life will assuredly bring about a powerful personal breakthrough. (Hebrews 12:1)

AMAZON RESOURCE #3

The spiritual breakthrough process allows you to share love, peace, joy, and gratitude with others each and every day. Your spiritual foundation will always be there tucked deep inside just waiting for the right time to assist you, but we have to learn how to get out of the way. No matter how difficult it may be, take a deep breath, close your eyes, and enjoy the spiritual breakthrough experience.
