Sometimes life can throw you a serious learning curve. When you learn things about yourself that must be addressed it can feel a little overwhelming. I realize somethings in me that are good and not so good, however, God is showing me that he loves what He sees because it is an opportunity to use me. WOW! I mean me he wants to use me. I feel honored. When a situation arises and I have to address it I take a look at me. Well, unfortunately I look at me a little to hard, meaning I don't give myself any slack. Yet I allow my clients and others to have flaws but I don't accept mine.
God has used a special person in my life to help me realize I, MJ must learn to love me flaws and all. No one is perfect... that's why pencils have erasers. Right? What I don't like I am giving myself time to change it. In all of this learning, I am falling in love with self. I thought it was selfish at first but then I realize it is not at all. It is a necessary fertilizer for my growth as a child of God.There is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in.
Today I say to you if you are not accepting your flaws you wont be content when others truly accept you flaws and all. I find this to be apart of unconditional love.
Unless I accept my faults I will most certainly doubt my virtues
I was asked what Easter means to me and it was an opportunity to tell someone what he did for us.
Many of you know I am a Christian. I don't shout it at the top of my lungs or lay hands on everyone I see, but I try to never block the light that is in me. The light of the Lord. Easter is a very important time of year to many and to Christians it is a renewal. Just as Spring is to many. Life has been a bit rough for me and so much has been happening lately. Lots of good and I wont call the rest bad I will say it has been learning curves. Today, Good Friday is a reminder to me that God loves me regardless. God thought enough of us that he sacrificed his ONLY son just for you and me. Jesus was crucified and it hurts my heart, but I feel so loved today. To know that he loved me enough to die for me, for my sins.
2010 has been full of endings and new beginnings in my life and the crucifixion of Jesus seemed like the end however, the resurrection proves the beginning. The beginning of a new life. Eternity.
I feel forever loved due to his sacrifice. I am so thankful that His love is unconditional.
The resurrection gives my life meaning and direction and the opportunity to start over no matter what my circumstances.
Today is Good (Holy) Friday-I am grateful, for my Father thought enough to die for my (our) sins. When I feel down, I ask, Jesus you love me this much, that you died for me. Don't know if you know someone that would do that, but today I remind you that there is someone that did. Just for you and me Now that’s love.
Many heartfilled blessings to you all to today, tomorrow and everyday.
