Friday Morning Inspiration

  

  

Self talk

We spend so much time trying to teach our children to be kind to others, but somewhere along the line we neglected ourselves. Really, let's take some time today not to fix anything, but to listen. Listen to the mean chatter that goes on inside of our heads about ourselves. Honestly, if our friends said half of the things to us that we say about ourselves, we wouldn't have them as friends.

So what do we do? Well, as for me, I pray. A lot. I know that there is no place I can be that God is not. There is no utterance of my heart He can't hear. When I don't feel strong enough to be kind to myself, He is kind to me. God is so good to me. So good.

For every way I criticize myself, God is there to comfort and correct me. My God shows up for me as everything I need. Father, Mother, friend, counselor, teacher. When I turn left and should have turned right, I can hear God's voice inside of me as Spirit say lovingly, "No dear, turn the other way."

My own self talk is a different story sometimes. "You are so stupid. Right! Right! Can't you remember to turn right?!" That's not God. Not my father.

Today, listen to God's voice. The voice that loves you. Let us learn from God how to speak to ourselves.

Happy Friday everyone.

THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER:

Lord, for this day filled with Your goodness, kindness, mercy and grace, we say thank You.  We thank You for always looking out for us.  You're always supplying our every need.  You're always protecting us from dangers seen and unseen.  You're always giving Your unconditional love to us.  We thank You God because You keep on being God and You never get tired of being Who You are; And, You're always proving Your grace is sufficient.  Help us this day to lean not to our own understanding, but in all our ways acknowledge You first, believing You will direct our paths.  Give us the wisdom to know our thoughts are not Your thoughts and neither are our plans Your plan and it's OK that we not understand it all, but help us to trust the fact that You do all things well, and our attempt to help You in any way will prolong us saying, by faith, it is well with my soul!    It's a good day to give thanks unto You, so we offer praise to You, Hallelujah Jesus!   We thank You in advance for the victory today, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Blessings,

WEDNESDAY MORNING PRAYER:

We worship Christ our Lord!  We worship Christ our Lord!  We lift our hands to Him today, we worship Christ our Lord!   Thank You Lord for this another day that You have blessed us to see.  We thank You Lord for another chance to say yes to Your will.   We thank You Lord for supplying all of our need and for making a way for us to have a lot of what we desire.  We thank You Lord for our family, friends and enemies too!  God, You've been so good to us, You are good to us and because You're faithful, we thank You in advance for continuing to be good to us.  Lord, help us to see, today is the best day to be about Your business.  Today is the best day to give love one to another.  Today is the best day to smile where frowns seem to be dominating.  Today is the best day to trust You in perceived to be difficult situations.  Today is the best day to let go of the past and press forward in to the great today that You have made just for us.  God, we're excited about today and we will let nothing distract us or cause us to doubt, You made this day, so there is nothing about this day that You cannot handle.  We will trust You Lord, today, in Jesus Name, Amen.

MONDAY MORNING PRAYER:

Lord, we thank You for another beautiful day that You have made.  We thank You for our life, our health and strength.  We thank You Lord for designing us beautifully, wonderfully and perfect just the way You want us.  You have given us everything we need to be all that You've created us to be, we pray that You will help us to accept who we are and walk in our greatness.  We're great because greater are You Who lives in us, than he that lives in the world.  We're great because nobody else can be who You've created us to be, nobody else can do what You've created us to do and nobody else can beat us being who we are in You.  We are not failures, we are not defeated, we are not damaged goods!  We are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus Who loves us!   Today we will smile, we will laugh, we will sing, we will rejoice, we will have peace and display the joy of the Lord.  It's a good day today and we will let nothing separate us from Your love.  We will let nothing pull us down, count us out or destroy our joy.  This is the day that the Lord has made and we will rejoice and be glad in it, no matter what.  We're determined to let the world see You in us and we will look for You in all we come in contact with, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Blessings,

FRIDAY INSPIRATION:

Friday Morning Inspiration

by

Jaha Zainabu

 

 

The other night I went to dinner with my friends George, Alisha and their two young daughters. As we sat there in Soup Plantation and talked and enjoyed our meals Zolah, two years old stood up on her seat and entertained us, herself and others around. There was another girl perhaps her same age who sat in the booth behind us. She also stood up. At one point the two girls faced each other. One Black one Filipino. Face to face, eye to eye. They looked at each other with such beautiful awe, as if they said to themselves, "Wow, there is God, right there, inside of her." They were both shy about speaking but both held their gaze on the other as if they saw the awesome invisible energy that connects us all.

What if we all looked at each other as if we knew, as if we could see God inside of the other? What if we remembered every day that Jesus died on the cross for us all? What if we thought about ways that we have wronged someone before we judge others?

Also, what if we remembered to be kind to ourselves when we mess up? God is kind and forgiving, generous and merciful. But we beat up on ourselves worse than anyone ever will.

Remember today to love yourself. Love everyone you see and think about today. See God in everyone you meet.
