The ways of the mind

I'm going to go at a different angle here and raise up something.

Our minds are very powerful and I don't think we know how powerful it actually is. It's a scary thought.

Take a look at the film in Inception: the primary basis of the film is about dreams.. about our subconscious mind. Regardless, it is our mind, and look at what we can create even while we are alseep-- so what about when we are awake?

If we could use the full potential of our minds, this world would be something else, I would have say.
Why I'm saying this is because when you think or reflect or meditate, or whatever you do when you hear a good word or you hear something negative or whatever, you start to formulate ideas in your mind, or you start to think and analyse things in your head--things that may have not been mentioned we are thinking about them and working out every scenario that could possibly be done in our minds.

Yet, they haven't happened, or even been mentioned.

Crazy, right?

It's not crazy.. it's reality.

A lot of what we conjure up in our heads have--or never will happen, but we imagine them to be. That's why there is something called imagination. What's the basis of the word imagination? Imagine.

If you start to imagine things negatively, this is how you drive yourself to paranoia, to madness, to all of those mental illnesses that they like to diagnose people with. I don't think it's medicines, it's our own selves overly thinking about unnecessary things that have been said, and we end up driving ourselves mad--literally.

That's why it's always good to stick to the positive route--no doubt there are going to be negative circumstances that arise, but it doesn't mean you should dwell in them.

The ways of the mind are something..

A quick prayer

My Lord and my king I give you glory,

I thank you for all of the things you have done for me. I thank you for the people that you have surrounded me with. I thank you for strength. I thank you for guidance. I thank you for sustaining ME.

My Lord continue to have your way in my life, and continue to use me for your glory.. Whatever the purpose you have for me may be, may you use me for it to come to pass.

My God.. I thank you and I pray that you will take your seat in my life always...

Amen.

Near to Christmas

My God.

Cannot believe it.. in a few weeks it will be Christmas--and the the new year!

This year has flown by. As all the other years that have passed.

It's amazing.

But really.. it makes me think so hard, that I really need to buckle down and start on what I wanna do in life!
The way the days are passing.. the minutes are passing.. the hours are passing.. the seconds are passing.. if we just sit on our backsides and do nothing, time will pass and when it's too late we will say 'I haven't done anything'

My life needs a turn around right about now because I feel so boxed and doing routine work. I want to make a change, I want to leave something behind.

I was thinking to myself the other day that when I die.. what will people have to say about me? Will it be good or will it be bad? Will it be inspiring or will it be just anything?

In this world, you need to leave your mark, so you know you've accomplished something.. and that's what I wanna do.

Now.. it's just HOW to do that... that's what I'm working on. And that's what we call life.

God bless.

Thankful

I know I haven't blogged in a bit..

I know.. *tear*

So much has been happening, and I know God is working.

We all have our beliefs; I believe in Jesus Christ, and what he can do is amazing.

I am forever grateful.

All part of the plan...

God is something else.

Recently, I bumped into a friend from college while I was going to church, and he was with is girlfriend. When he introduced me to her, she was like 'I need to hug you, I've heard so much about you'

I was like.. huh?! What could he have possibly said to make her react like that? What have I even done?

I was truly shocked, but I was humbled because someone talking about me in a positive light is amazing. It just tells me that I need to continue.

Little thing like really make me think...

Do not be comfortable

In life, you have to always challenge yourself.

Me personally, I like being in a place where I'm comfortable, but when we always stay in a place where we're comfortable, we do not progress.

Think about it.. if you were in a position where you knew everything you're meant to do, and you always do the same routine, are you going to go anywhere? No. You're going to stay in the same place until you make a DECISION!

We need to get to new levels in life.. when someone is climbing a mountain... and they get higher and higher, it gets tough, but they can't turn around and go 'I want to go back' they need to go to the top..

Let this day pass away..

Today has been rubbish.

But while the day has been going on, I've been reflecting on everything, and this thought came to me: before something can get good, it has to be bad first. When everything is ok and level, there's no impact, you don't really think anything special has happened, but when you start with a rough day, and it eventually starts rising up.. it's like 'Wow'.

If that made any sense to you, Thank God. But I know what I mean!

But then, God has predestined every day before we were even born...? So, that means he had it written that everything that happened today was meant to happen.

Hm... maybe I was meant to learn something..

I've just been in a sombre/annoyed/don't want to communicate mood.. but I'm asking God to help me.. I don't like being in this kind of mood.

God is in control anyway..
