People come into your life for a reason

God bless and have a great day   Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference.  "From the moment that you don't fear to share your heart, you are a free person. " -- Paul Coelho                I 'm sending this to see how  many actually read their e-mail.  Your response will be interesting.  Pay attention to what you read.  After you have finished reading it, you will know the reason it was  sent to you.  Here goes:  People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.  When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that  person.  When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need  you have expressed.  They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with  guidance and support,  To aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually.  They may seem like a God send and they are.  They are there for the reason you need them to be.  Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an  end.  Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away.  Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.  What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire  fulfilled, their work is done.  The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.  Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has  come to share, grow or learn.  They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh.  They may teach you something you have never done.  They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.  Believe it, it is real. But only for a season.  LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons,  things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional  foundation.  Your job is to accept the lesson,  love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other  relationships and areas of your life.  It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.  Thank you for being a part of my life,  whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime.  Send this  to every friend that you have on-line,  including the person who sent it to you.  0 Replies - you may need to work on your 'people skills'  2 Replies - you are nice but probably need to be more outgoing  4 Replies - you have picked your friends well!  6 Replies - you are downright popular  8 Replies or More - you are totally awesome  (and that's probably why you're on MY list)  I wonder what mine will be.  GUARDIAN ANGEL Forward this message the same day you received it.  It may sound ridiculous, but it is right on time.  We believe that something is about to happen.  Angels exist, only sometimes they haven't got wings and we call them  friends; you are one of them.  Something wonderful is about to happen to you and your friends.  Tomorrow at 10.35am somebody will address you and tell you  something you have been waiting to hear.  Please do not break it.  Send it to at least 7 of your friends.  . "From the moment that you don't fear to share your heart, you are a free person. " -- Paul Coelho

Meditation brings wisdom

"Meditation brings wisdom; lack of meditation leaves ignorance. Know well what leads you forward and what hold you back, and choose the path that leads to wisdom."

"Meditate. Live purely. Be quiet. Do your work with mastery. Like the moon, come out from behind the clouds! Shine."

We can stop by practicing mindful breathing, mindful walking, mindful smiling, and deep looking in order to understand

How can we stop our agitation, our fear, despair, anger and craving? We can stop by practicing mindful breathing, mindful walking, mindful smiling, and deep looking in order to understand.. When we are mindful, touching deeply the present moment, the fruits are always understanding, acceptance, love, and the desire to relieve suffering and bring joy.

The Heart of Buddha's Teaching

"Be Yourself....everyone else is taken."

HANNAH LLOYD:

You can choose whatever path or combo of paths you want.

The truth and the path reside inside us.  That is the dharma.

You can be Buddhist if you say you are.  No ceremony required, no creed, no vows to take.

(Unless you want to be a monk).  It seems like a good idea to get some instruction on practices that help me in my daily life

so that I can be helpful to others.  

The Tibetans would say, I think, that one should look for a teacher and see if you have a strong connection to what they are 

teaching.

This has worked for me.

I like the quote from Oscar Wilde who said "Be Yourself....everyone else is taken."

To bring true happiness to one's family, to all, just control one's own mind.

"To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him."

Our life is the creation of our mind.

"Misdirected life force is the activity in disease process. Disease has no energy save what it borrows from the life of the organism.

Remain in Him

I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in Me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing."
(John 15:5 NIV)

TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria

Have you ever really thought about the relationship between a branch and the vine? We don't use these kinds of word pictures very much anymore, but think about it — if the branch is not attached to the vine, it withers and dies. The very life of the branch depends on being attached to the vine. The same thing happens if we try to operate in this life without Jesus. Without Him, we can do nothing. We are cut from our life source. But when you remain in Him by daily connecting with Him through prayer, worship and study of the Word, then your life will be fruitful. You'll walk in joy and blessing. Notice that this verse says "much fruit." It's saying that you will have an abundant harvest in your life. Remember, God doesn't want you to just barely get by. He wants to overwhelm you with His goodness! Choose to remain in Him today; choose to make Him your top priority, and you'll see His hand of blessing operating in every area of your life!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Heavenly Father, thank You for being my source of life. Thank You for Your hand of blessing that is leading and guiding me. I choose to make You the number one priority in my life. Let my heart hunger only for You today. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

— Joel & Victoria Osteen

 

ASK WHAT YOU DESIRE

"If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you."

(John 15:7, NKJ)

TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria

It pleases God to give you the desires of your heart! He wants to see you happy, whole, strong and enjoying His blessing. When you make theWord of God your number one priority, when you stay connected to Him through prayer and worship, God promises that He will give you the desires of your heart.

Psalm 37:4 tells us again that if we delight ourselves in Him, He will give us the desires of our hearts. One of the root definitions of the word "delight" means "soft." This gives the picture of us being soft and moldable, like clay, in the Potter's hands. As we allow Him to shape and mold our character, as we yield ourselves to Him, our thoughts become His thoughts, our words become His Words, and our desires become His desires! That's how we can ask whatever we will because our will is in alignment with Him!

Today, don't allow the distractions of everyday life keep you from spending time with Him. Abide in Him and let His Words abide in you because He will give you the desires of your heart!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Heavenly Father, today I submit every area of life to You. I invite You to have Your way in my heart. Mold me and make me as I surrender every area of my life to You. I praise You and give You all the glory. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

— Joel & Victoria Osteen

When we have patience and encourage one another, we are sharing Christ.

⁵ May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had,⁶ so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. 
  Romans 15:5-6 (NIV) 
  
When we have patience and encourage one another, we are sharing Christ.

Letting go of suffering

"People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar."

 

  ~Thich Nhat Hanh

One who makes you suffering is suffering deeply himself

"When another person makes you suffer, it is because he suffers deeply within himself, and his suffering is spilling over. He does not need punishment; he needs help. That's the message he is sending."

Your smile can be your joy

Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy."

When we see the truth of life, death, out thoughts become free of emotions.

"Most of us aren't willing to face the reality of impermanence and death. That's because we forget that our lives are transitory,
that we quarrel with each other, as if we are going to live for ever.
But, if we face the fact of death, our quarrels will come to an end.
We will then realize the folly of fighting when we ourselves are doomed to die. Excited by emotions our thought being clouded, we cannot see the truth about life. When we see the truth, however, our thoughts become free of emotions."

Everything we experience begins with thought

"Everything we experience begins with thought,
Our words and deeds spring from thought,
If we speak or act with evil thoughts, Famous Buddha Quotes
unpleasant circumstances and experiences inevitably will result,
Wherever we go, we create bad karma because we carry bad thoughts. We cannot shake off this suffering as long as we are tied to our evil thoughts. Buddhist Quote Dhammapada
This is very much like the wheel of a cart that follows the hooves of an ox,
The animal is bound to this heavy load with ever step it takes."

Find Rest TODAY’S SCRIPTURE “Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls” (Matthew 11:29, NIV) TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria Sometimes the day-to-day pressures of life can cause unnecessary stress. In fact, many people lose sleep worrying about things or people in their lives. But God doesn’t want us to live stressed out and overwhelmed. He wants us to live a life of rest and peace. When Jesus walked on this earth, He took time for Himself. He got away from the crowds. He spent time with the Father. That’s how He found rest. He was gentle and humble in heart. Do you ever notice that when you are stressed out or worrying about something, you’re less tolerant of others? You’re more likely to say something you don’t really mean. Today, God wants you to cast your cares on Him and live with a gentle and humble attitude. When you release your burdens and follow the example of Jesus, you will find rest for your soul. You will be rejuvenated and refreshed! You will find peace in your heart, and you will move forward in the abundant life God has for you! A PRAYER FOR TODAY Heavenly Father, today I choose to cast my cares on You. Teach me, Holy Spirit, to have a gentle and humble attitude. Help me find rest for my soul so that I can love others the way You love me. In Jesus’ Name.
