How to Feel, Beautiful.

Read the right magazines, that give you the right tips, to be the right kind of person society wants you to be. Simple right?

Well I say, “No thanks.” I say it’s time to challenge these concepts. Starting today.mirror

What makes you feel beautiful?

Notice the key word here is not beautiful. The key word is feel. Let’s rearrange.

Beautiful! What makes you feel?

Hmm, well now here is a question!

  • I feel when I love.
  • I love when I feel God’s presence.
  • I love when I use my talents and gifts.
  • I feel the most in times of inspiration and grace.
  • When my spirit is alive, I feel its beauty touching other people!

jrl3If you take fear and strip it down to the core, you will find that it is an illusion.

Define it, and you will see that it actually means “the anticipation of pain”.

How absurd!

Can you believe the amount of things we do not accomplish because we anticipate that it will result in pain. Dreams, ambitions, goals. Thomas A. Edison once said,“If we did all the things we are capable of, we would literally astound ourselves!” Smart guy.

believeSome people want to change the world.

Some people make a difference.

Some people push the barriers of the status quo.

Not most people, some people.

If you intend to plants seeds of faith around the world, great. I do too. People need us to. As new technology emerges, I ask one question: How can we use this to spread our message? God’s message, that is.

Back up. Let’s first make things clear, I am not a theologian and I promise not to pretend to be. I am passionate about my faith and reaching out to others. I also love to learn about new media, and really use it to spread my faith. I know that the world is hungry for it.
