Are “they” Really That Important?

Posted on by

girlinfield

What will “they” think?

Will “they” like me?

Will “they” approve of me?

Will “they” reject me?

Will “they” love me?

Will “they” hate me?

Will “they” agree with me?

Will “they” disagree with me?

“They” can keep me up at night, tossing and turning, trying to figure out what “they” think.

Every time that darn insecurity bug bites me it sends me into the crazy land of “they”.

Obsessing over what “they” think about me.

Have you ever struggled with such ridiculous thinking?

A few weeks ago when I was talking with my therapist (and yes I have a therapist and a life coach … there’s a big difference between the two) I came up with a great idea on how to protect myself from being consumed with “they”, aka other people’s opinions about me.

Sitting on her big comfy couch my therapist asked me to describe who I was. Not who everyone else says I am, but who I truly am as a 40-year old woman.

As tears trickled down my cheeks I could feel myself becoming lighter, more vibrate, and full of life as I expressed the beautiful unique person that God created.

I am compassionate, loving, strong, courageous, beautiful, giving …

As I expressed the truth from my heart I envisioned all the opinions of others bouncing off of me. 

All opinions, all words … good, bad, indifferent, kind, mean, shocking, thoughtful …. None of the words were able to land on me. They just bounced off of me.

Instead of allowing those words to penetrate my soul and take root, I was filled with who God says I am, the absolute pure truth.

I decided that day that those are the only words that are allowed to consume me. I don’t need words to puff my ego up and tell me how good I am and I certainly don’t need words to tear me down.

Now I’m not saying we should not receive words of love and compassion from others. By all means we are made for relationship and expressing thoughtful words to one another. This is part of the beautiful gift of life we live.

What I am saying is that we must guard our hearts before allowing anything to come in. Make sure the words that are spoken align with who God says we are before opening ourselves up to every thought, word, or opinion that comes our way.

Proverbs 4:32 says it beautifully, “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it”.

Have you struggled with opinions from others before? I would love to hear from you in the comments below. Everyone who comments will be entered to WIN a special devotional book from Lysa TerKeurst, What Happens When Women Say Yes to God. Winner announced Feb. 28.

Journal with God: Write in your journal all the words that have been hurting your heart. Maybe even the people who have said those words to you. Then ask God to reveal His truth to you. Write down who God says’ you are, the beautiful truth.

Life After Cancer

Posted on by

fampic

Sometimes I notice the bright crystal blue sky and the fluffy white clouds.

Some days I slow down and breath in the fresh air as tears well up inside me with gratitude.

Some mornings I sit with my daughter and hold her hand taking in the gift of another day with her.

Some evenings I look around my house and notice how my husband has yet again picked up the kitchen and tidied up the counters before heading to bed.

Some days I listen in amazement as a friend gushes with thankfulness for all
God is doing in her life.

And then….

Sometimes I forget that I’m a survivor and miss the blessings right in front of me.

Some days I rush through my day and stress about trivial things.

Some mornings I wake up grumpy and feel down in the dumps.

Some evenings I veg out in front of the TV wasting hours until time to go to bed.

Either way….

Today I’m pausing to say I am grateful for the life I’ve been given and for you reading this page.

Today is a gift so let’s make it count!

Leave me a comment and let me know how you will make today count.

I currently have a waiting list, however I will have appointments opening up in mid September. I want to encourage you that there is hope and a new way of life through Christian Life Coaching. ((hugs))

What’s your red flag telling you?

Posted on by

redflag3

Do you ever find yourself doing one thing but deep down inside you really can’t stand what you’re doing?

For example, eating junk food when you know you need to lose weight to get into your summer clothes or giving advice when you know you really just need to keep quiet and listen.

When I find myself in these wishy-washy emotions that’s a big red flag for me!

My life has the potential to spiral quickly into unhealthy places, physically, mentally and spiritually.

And I don’t know about you, but for me when my life is out of balance watch out world because I become a hot mess!

So what can we do to keep our sanity so that we don’t become a hot mess?

How can we consistently live the life we really want to live? You know the life that is full of the fruits of the spirit…love, peace, joy, patience, kindness, gentleness and self-control.

For starters, get rid of the idea that we will ever do anything perfectly or exactly as planned because that’s just not reality. No matter what we plan, every single day will guarantee us a curve ball to throw us off-balance.

Secondly it’s quite simple, Just Show Up.

That’s it.

All we really have to do is simply seek God each and every day and He will do the rest. He will provide all the sanity and balance we could ever wish for.

Matthew 7:7-8 Jesus says, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.”

It takes one simple action, one simple effort on our part.

Just Show Up.

When we do our part and pursue the Lord, He will do the rest. Life as you know it will transform into a steady consistent balance without all the chaos.

How different will your life be when you Just Show Up? Leave a comment below.

I currently have a waiting list, however I have a few appointments opening up in late April. I want to encourage you that there is hope and a new way of life through Christian coaching. ((hugs))

How 3 Words Changed My Life

Posted on by

marrygoround.jpg

For years, I felt heavy, as if I was wearing one of those vests they put on you at the dentist office when they take x-rays. Pressure weighed me down.

I couldn’t figure out why life was so hard for me.

Have you ever felt like you were struggling to make it through the day?

I know I have.

Many, many times I’ve fought off depression, anxiety, fear, doubt, worry, insecurity and the next thing I knew, I’d be drowning in hopelessness.

As “Christians” sometimes we end up feeling like we’re defective or flawed because we aren’t like all the other Christians that seem to have it all together. We feel like why in the heck is this “Christian” thing not working for me like it is for those other people we see plastered all over social media?

One night, about a year ago I woke up from a dead sleep and found the answer to why I had been anxiously struggling day in and day out with life.

Three little words popped in my mind, JUST LIVE TODAY.

You would think after living with cancer, chemotherapy, life support, and being faced with never walking or breathing again on my own that I would have really understood the concept of living one day at a time. Out of all people, someone who’s kissed the face of death and has this incredible second chance at life, surely I lived life to it’s fullest, cherishing every moment, every breath?

Unfortunately, I did not.

You might be scratching your head and asking me why, right about now? The reason why is because in my mind I lived in the past consumed with regrets and fears or I live in the future of what ifs.

My mind was like a marry-go-round, spinning round and round in the past or the future. It never stopped to rest in the present. 

Once I began to truly Just Live Today by intentionally disciplining myself to keep my mind focused only on the 24-hours at hand, I felt light and free, almost as if I could truly breath again. It was not easy work but you know the old saying practice pays off.

Today I can honestly say that I truly Just Live Today, one 24-hours at a time. I cherish life. Gratitude consumes my day. 

So how about you? Where does your mind stay? Does the past consume you? Does the future taunt you? Does the present scare you?

What would your life look like if you simply stopped the marry-go-round in your mind and JUST LIVE TODAY?

I would love to hear from you in the comments below.

If you are struggling with the inability to just live today, contact me for coaching. I currently have a waiting list, however I have a few appointments opening up in mid April. I want to encourage you that there is hope and a new way of life. ((hugs))
