Robin Hardy-Keeping Joy in Troubling Times

Keeping Joy in Troubling Times Knowing your peace and hope comes from Jesus. What an exciting time we are in today! Many would say that statement is crazy talk however, perhaps their hope is in their home, job or bank account. If there is one thing I have learned in the past few months is those things are not always there, they are not constant and they offer no hope or peace but for a moment. So where are we to find that hope and peace in today? We know the Word tells us that God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow so my hope and peace really should be in Him that is constant and unchanging. The other lesson I have learned is how do I act or react to the trials of 2008? Beautiful Diva's what I do know is the world is watching us and saying where is this God you believe in, look at you miserable and depressed, what God? When that became a reality in my mind, you know that light bulb moment I realized what I know in my heart had better be played out in my actions. My joy, peace and hope is not in my home, bank account or job it is truly 100% in my precious Father in heaven. Sometimes life throws us lemons and all seems bitter, however if we stir in a little Jesus into the juice it becomes a sweet refreshing beverage that nourishes our souls and calms our hearts. This is a time dear sisters that we need to cling to our Heavenly Father with all our strength, lean on Him and share the joy of the knowledge we will be alright under the wings of the Father in heaven. Will you join me today in the refreashing of our minds, renewing of our hearts and rejoice in the hope we have? If you do not know about this hope please let us know I would love to share my Jesus with anyone desiring a true hope and peace in todays kaos. Be blessed in your decisions to move forward and be a light in a dark world so that others will want what you have!

Taking Our Power Back!

I sat back this morning reflecting on many dear friends who have this week decided to take their power back from things holding them in bondage. They are experiencing a couple of different emotions as they emerge victorious in taking their life back. Some are feeling strong and confident, while others are scared and weak. Feeling are important to embrace and recognize what impact they are having on you. If you avoid the feeling/emotion side of life you will miss out on so much growth and opportunity.

Those feeling strong and confident are moving into their next place, next level with anticipation of great things happening. Keep in mind this was their choice to move this direction, many had already been in the scared and weak place in their life. My encouragement to all who are experiencing taking your power back with fear and weakness to take a deep breath and move forward anyway. The power you have in moving despite your emotions is life changing. Here are a few ways that will help you move through this new fantastic step you have chosen to make:

• Journal: write down what is going on, experience your emotions, embrace the change
• Breathe: take deep breaths and calm your mind, slow the breathing down and relax
• Music: listen to some positive music, full of life and energy
• Connect: connect with a coach, mentor that will listen as you move through your new journey.

These are all simple ways to begin to embrace this exciting new place you stand in, enjoy it and love the journey you are on...
