What is Christian Meditation?

Posted on by

As a Christian I think it is very important that we understand what Christian meditation is about.

A lot of times in different religions or different types of practices they talk about meditating, meaning to completely empty your mind where there is nothing there just stillness. I want to share with you as a Christian that is a very dangerous place to be because if nothing is in there the enemy can come in a fill that space. He can sneak in and fill up your mind with other things that are not of God.

God’s word says in Joshua 1:7-8 “Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.”

We must be very careful that we are putting the right things in our thoughts so that we don’t let anything come in and deceive us. The bottom line is that we have a rule book for life which is the Bible. The Bible is the one true guideline for life. When we put God’s word in our mind we can walk out and obey and know what is good or evil, right from wrong. I would love to hear from you and know your personal experience with meditation.

How To Pray

Posted on by

Do you love prayer or is prayer really just not your thing?

If you’re really not sure what prayer is all about, it is just a simple conversation with the Lord. You can talk with the Lord just like you are talking to a friend by talking out loud. Often times I pray alone. I sit in my “come to Jesus” chair and talk out loud with the Lord. Prayer is also when you are quiet and still, you are able to hear from the Lord. It is that gut feeling, that deep knowing and He will bring thoughts to your mind and what He is trying to speak into your life. There are also prayers that we can read from the bible or prayers that others have wrote in books. I have prayers that I wrote in my book Worthy of a Miracle. And one of my favorite ways to pray is through a spiritual language or speaking in tongues. I will share more on this in the weeks ahead.

I would love to hear how I can pray for you today. Please leave me a comment below or email me at linda@lindakuhar.com.

Just having you by my side makes me feel so supported and it helped me gain tremendous perspective even in our first call! I’m gonna be a NEW woman by the time we have the 3rd session.”            Rebecca P., NY

“Working with Linda was truly a joy. Linda’s upbeat personality was a breath of fresh air for me during one of my most challenging times. She encouraged me to dig deep to examine certain areas of my life and to intentionally look at what I needed to initiate change. During this time I began to seek God’s purpose for my life in a way like never before and it continues to this day. I have grown so much in the things of God since these sessions.  What I know is that God brought us together. I needed a jump-start in my walk and I believe that the Lord used Linda to accomplish it. I would say to anyone who is looking for a genuine, kind, compassionate, and non-judgmental voice during a confusing time, Linda Kuhar is your person. I highly recommend her.” Sheilah W., GA

Hearing God

Posted on by


Our minds are a very powerful tool. It is critical to discern the difference between the voices we are hearing in our mind. Is it our voice, God’s voice, or the enemy’s voice we are listening to? In Romans 12:2 it says to be transformed by the renewing of your mind, then you will know God’s good and perfect will for your life. So how do we do that? The first thing the we must do is to take note of what you are putting into your mind. What are you listening to, looking at and reading? What are you letting into your mind? It is important to intentionally put the good things into your mind, to put God’s voice into your mind.

So what is God’s voice? We know in black and white that it is His word, the bible. And that is why it is so important to read the bible every single day. It doesn’t matter how much you read, you can simply meditate on just one verse. What do I mean by mediating? Mediating means to read it, to speak it, to sit and think on it over and over.

The verse I’ve been meditating on recently is Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him and he will make your paths straight.” So what I do is take that verse and rewrite it, I read it, I speak it, I put it on my phone wallpaper, I share it all over social media … I make sure that it is everywhere so that it is at the front of my mind. In the weeks ahead I will share more with you about reseting your mindset. One book that I recommend everyone to read is Joyce Meyer’s The Battlefield of the Mind.

What clients are saying about working with Linda Kuhar …

“I am beyond thankful that God led me to find Linda. I considered myself a Christian before and I had salvation, but definitely no joy or victory. I really was hoping she would just tell me what I needed to do and not suggest I pray or read because I felt like I couldn’t hear his voice or understand. Thankfully she did have me do those things that I didn’t really want to do. At first I followed her suggestions because I knew she was going to hold me accountable and because I really wanted change. Over the weeks things began to shift. Things are so different now and weights have been lifted! I can say that I do hear the Lord’s voice and am so in love with Him. This would not have happened without Linda’s support and guidance. She makes it so easy to open up and be vulnerable and honest. I am thankful for her willingness to be used as a vessel. If you are feeling like you need a change I highly recommend Linda!!” Melissa P., VA

“I was led to reach out to Linda after I stumbled across her website. She has been one of the kindest, most warm hearted Christian women I have ever spoken to. She helped me through some tough times in my marriage and I know with her guidance, and of course, God’s loving grace, I am on the path to a stronger bond with my husband. I would recommend her to anyone!” Christianne M., PA

Can we really Expect Miracles?

Posted on by

Do I have to keep training? The marathon is just around the corner, it is soooo close. But some days it’s hard to keep on keeping on. Every day I have to make an intentional decision: train or slack off.

Today I chose to persevere and stay strong.

Tuesday I talked with you about Expect Miracles from the JESUS acronym in my book: Just Live Today, Expect Miracles, Speak Truth, Use Your Gifts, Start Now!

When we think about Expecting Miracles, it really goes back to our mindset. For example, when you wake up each day do you automatically think how can I get through the day and try to find something to be positive about or do you wake up with an expectant mindset … expecting to notice the miracles in your life?

What would it be like if you went through an entire 24 hours expecting miracles all around you?

Let’s take a minute and look around at the miracles right now in front of us. It is a miracle we are alive and breathing! It is a miracle that it is raining! It is a miracle that we have a beautiful world that surrounds us!

When will we shift our perspective from just getting through the day to looking at life expectantly? I know from personal experience that when I live life expectantly my day turns out completely different, full of hope … full of excitement … full of miracles!

Leave a comment and let me know what miracles are you expecting in your life?

I know that six years ago today I was asleep in a coma and my family and friends were believing and expecting God for a miracle. And through their faith and prayers God delivered a miracle! What miracle are you expecting from God today?

Is God Real?

Posted on by

Several years ago I woke up in the middle of the night and this acronym popped in my mind. JESUS: Just Live Today, Expect Miracles, Speak Truth, Use Your Gifts, Start Now! I put it in my cell phone and it stayed there for about a year before I ever did anything with it. Today I’m thrilled to say this acronym is in Part 2 of my book Worthy of a Miracle.

This week let’s talk about E … Expect Miracles.

If we are really honest with ourselves, we have all wrestled with the question, “Is God real?” On page 185 I wrote …

“Most of my life, I only knew how to do religion. I never understood how to be a believer in Christ and how to have a relationship with him. I often wondered why I didn’t know the Jesus of the Bible like the amazing Christian speakers I so admired, or the friends I interacted with daily.

Why did they seem to “get it” and I didn’t?

I accepted Christ as a teenager, but somehow my belief never traveled from my head to my heart. I tried everything, from teaching children’s Sunday school and volunteering at church to leading home Bible studies and following annual Bible reading plans. This was the “good church lady” way to live . . . to gain God’s favor and earn angel wings. I thought that if I followed the rules perfectly, one day I would know Jesus and believe I was worthy to be God’s daughter.”

Have you ever got caught up in the performance or the “doing” to find God? We go to church, listen to sermons, do the bible studies, listen to Christian music but all along there’s still a disconnect from the head to the heart.

It wasn’t until I got to the end of my rope and got over myself, that I stopped performing to find God in my own strength and that is when a miracle happened! Page 186 I wrote …

“This is what I hold true now: God will not force himself on us. He waits patiently (giving us freewill) for us to turn to him. That’s what he did for me. When I finally got desperate enough, I found him and fell in love with Jesus when he unveiled the truth in my heart. I am worthy. I am valued. I am his daughter. I am adored. I
am perfect in his sight just the way I am.

It is a miracle I never expected.

Out of brokenness, God restores our messes, our mistakes, our lives.”

Today I want you to take a moment and be completely honest with yourself. You don’t have to share here if you’re not comfortable. Have you wrestled with your relationship with God? Have you struggled to find him through doing? Have the words of the page of the bible been flat to you and not really come alive in your life? I want you to pray today, I want you to Expect a Miracle! Just like the miracle I had in my life, God WILL reveal himself to you.

What miracle would you never ever expect to happen in your life? That is what I encourage you to pray for today.

How Not To Quit {this time}

Posted on by

Often when I think about planning for my future, coming up with a vision for my life or even setting a goal I tend to feel apprehensive and sometimes even down right afraid.

I know that might sound funny coming from a life coach, but it’s true.

It’s exciting to think about a new beginning and starting with a clean slate, but then that nagging little voice pops up, “What if you fail? What if you don’t follow through again? What if people think…”

All those insecurities crowd my thoughts and then the next thing you know I quit before ever getting started!

Can you relate? Does any of this sound familiar?

Last year I found a way to overcome this whole debacle of goal setting, follow through and not quitting. You really won’t believe how easy it is.

simplybelieve

Yep! I simply chose to believe.

Believe what? That I will do better this time? That I will have more will power, that I will not be a quitter.

No not at all.

Instead, I told those nagging little voices of what ifs exactly what they were to me, a LIE!

I politely told the “what if” family they were no longer welcomed in my mind and they would have to take up residence elsewhere.

They were EVICTED!

Eagerly I opened up the door and welcomed the truth {God’s word} to move in and take up permanent residence in my mind.

Romans 12:2 is one of my favorite occupants. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.

When I felt down in the dumps or could not see the outcome I would knock on truth’s door and simply choose to believe.

Because of my new thoughts I completed a gigantic goal, writing a book.

Sweet friend, I am inviting you today to simply choose to believe. Believe God’s beautiful truth for you. His promises for you. Believe my prayer for you.

Heavenly Father, I pray that everyone who reads this post will simply choose to believe and remain confident of this, that You who began a good work in them will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. (Phil 1:6) I pray for your abundance to overflow in their lives. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

What are your goals? What are your fears? Leave a comment; I would love to pray for you!
