ShiningLight: GOD IS GOOD - energized 4 the nEW YEAR

BEYOND MEASURE

"OUR DEEPEST IS NOT THAT WE ARE INADEQUATE.
OUR DEEPEST FEAR IS THAT WE ARE POWERFUL BEYOND MEASURE. IT IS OUR LIGHT, NOT OUR DARKNESS, THAT MOST FRIGHTENS US.
WE ASK OURSELVES: WHO AM I TO BE BRILLIANT, GORGEOUS, TALENTED, FABULOUS? ACTUALLY, WHO ARE YOU NOT TO BE?
YOU ARE A CHILD OF GOD. YOUR PLAYING SMALL DOES NOT SERVE THE WORLD.
THERE IS NOTHING ENLIGHTENED ABOUT SHRINKING SO THAT OTHER PEOPLE WON'T FEEL INSECURE AROUND YOU. WE ARE ALL MEANT TO SHINE, AS CHILDREN DO.
WE WERE BORN TO MAKE MANIFEST THE GLORY OF GOD IN US. IT'S NOT JUST SOME OF US. IT'S IN EVERYONE.
AND AS WE LET OUR LIGHT SHINE, WE UNCONSCIOUSLY GIVE OTHER PEOPLE PERMISSION TO DO THE SAME. AS WE ARE LIBERATED FROM OUR OWN FEAR, OUR PRESENCE AUTOMATICALLY LIBERATES OTHERS"

(Marianne Williamson - and quoted by Nelson Mandela 1994 at his inauguration!

GOD IS GOOD - energized 4 the nEW YEAR

Here we are, it is a new year and Iam energized THANK GOD!! I've had wonderful discussions with my mom and dad over the last days. It is amazing how our relationship has chifted from child-parent to adult -adult. I am so thankful. I have been learning a lot though and people around me have been patient and loving through this time. I am glad. Last week there was a day when I felt I lost my mind. My emotions were like a roller coaster and I felt seriously overwhelmed. I am so glad that God is in control and I can always come to HIM. I am energized to please God, NOT people. I am ready to take on what HE will be giving to me this coming year. Are you, too?
