Your Higher Power

Does your higher power have any power?

Does it have enough power to help you, to answer your questions, to lead you in the correct path for your life, to encourage you when you are down, to heal you when you are sick, and console you through loss?

  • Can it make anything happen for you?
  • What power does your higher power have?
  • Where does it get its power?
  • Is its power potent?
  • Can it lose its power?
  • Who gave it it’s power?

Does it have power all on its own or did someone merely say it has power or ‘give it power’?

Can a human being give a higher power power?

If it is a truly higher power, how can it receive strength from something ‘lower’ ?

We need to ask these questions. There are many kinds of higher powers spoken about today.

Where does your higher power fit in?

One Size Fits All?

I’m not standardized! You aren’t either!

I don’t fit in! You’re not supposed to!

We are all humankind, male or female, yet we are unlike in so many other ways. What works for you might not work for me. I like country living; you love city life. I learn best by observation. You like the classroom. I like to get up early. You are a late morning person. I like talking with people; you’re more reserved. I am interested in color and words; you like numbers and engineering.

We need all of you. Every one of you and your likes and dislikes. We have a world full of people. You can help them. We all balance each other out.

Again, this boils down to discovering and accepting our likes and dislikes, our strengths and weaknesses. We can use this knowledge to help build others, to build ideas and see things someone else wouldn’t.

Don’t feel disqualified or tempted to find fault with someone unlike you. We need the unique contributions each brings to the table.

If there were no different colors, if all the trees were alike, all the flowers were the same, all the birds sang the same song, the food all tasted the same… 😦

Embrace who you are. Don’t feel you need to change to make someone else happy. Work on yourself. Be your best each day. It’s a growth process, but you will be rewarded. You will notice the change. Your gifts and talents will become stronger. You will become more comfortable with who you were made to be!

Don’t Fit In

Stand in your own outfit!

How many times have we tried to fit in to a pair of pants we really wanted to wear? They looked great on the mannequin….!?! Why don’t they look good on me?

We each have our own shape – physically, mentally, emotionally. Our likes, dislikes, talents are just a tad different from our friend’s. That’s why what they have/do doesn’t fit/look good on us.

I have to figure out what looks/works best on me! The right color, style, jewelry, shoes, bed, chair, books I read, job I accept…on and on. Stuff has to be adjusted to conform to me, not me conform to it!

You were crafted to be you, they were crafted to be them. We are on an individual basis….no production line here! This is a one of a kind artist’s studio piece being unveiled – you and I!!!

We need to be our own piece and bring our fullness to the forefront and really work to develop us.

‘It’s too hard 😦 It’s easier just to be like somebody else.’ That’s no fun though, the reward is in the labor, the satisfaction of a job well done!

What one area in your life can you work on to become a better representation of you?

You look more beautiful wearing you!
