Reflections of our Heart to SING or Sigh

Can you keep a bird from Singing?  


          Can you keep from eating?


Can you keep the sun from rising?  


           Can you keep  from talking?


Can you keep the world from spinning?  


            Can you keep from thinking?

Choices

in

Life

Can you sing in the sunshine?
Can you sing in the rain?


If you fill your Heart with Jesus.... then it will always be full of "Son Shine" even when it's raining in your Brain.   :)

                     

Choices

Psalm 9  

I'm thanking you, God, from a full heart, 

I'm writing the book on your wonders. 

   I'm whistling, laughing, and jumping for joy; 

      I'm singing your song, High God

You choose 

what come's out of 

your mouth

Just a thought or Cupcake from Hell ...... LOL

It has occurred to me that we take the wholesome foods that were created for our bodies and have some what "Perverse" them.  Ok, Made them  taste Sinfully GOOD!

Oh ya, that's even how it's said and presented .... "SINFULLY GOOD" Temptations

I had someone tell me, with alot of enthusiasm and almost to the point of salivating, about the most decedent delicious Cupcake that was to "die for"...

OMG!!!!   Do we not hear ourselves?   Yes, we have an affair with food that causes us to be adulterous to ourselves.  We should have a committed relationship with ourselves to be "true to ourselves",  "take care of ourselves", "love ourself as God commanded".

Now of course a "Cupcake" won't catapult our souls to hell....

BUT.....  Think about this....(because I am)

God has given us a pure truth for us to ingest to give us health, power, joy, peace.

For instance,  LOVE!   Pure love as intended for us to feed our souls is from God.

Yet, this "world" has taken the Purity and wholesomeness of Love and perverted it,
the world has re-dressed it with selfishness "Self indulgence"  "feel good stuff"
"It's all about me and what makes me happy at this moment mentality"
         Distractions from what is good for us
                                   Sin covered in  WHITE Sugar to look and taste good.


All of this "just a thought" to say.... B A L A N C E  your life

Just as it's best to eat a BIG JUICY RED RIPE STRAWBERRY 

and you choose to eat

Strawberry Pie full of  poisonous white sugar (yes, it is poison to our bodies)

So, it is when we have  

the Pure Health Giving  WORD OF TRUTH  and WISDOM

that we should  ingest into our minds and Souls Every day

and what is chosen? ... watching TV full of mindless (subliminal) nonsense that leaves us "wanting" and feeling restless and unfulfilled. We fill our minds with empty mindless ...

" %*@)*(Bleep)!"

Eat, Drink, Read, Think, Watch, Listen

"NATURAL, PURE and ORGANIC" 

Food and Thoughts

Just think about it....

Just a thought today.....   

Ciao and Salute to Your Health and Wellness 


PS  is it any wonder we choose strawberry pie over a strawberry when we choose mindless Nonsense over  reading and studying God's Word?  
God's word is full of WISDOM - take it  and fix a BIG plate of GOD's word today and fill yourself up.  It'll truly Satisfy your Soul 


When you're BALANCED you will choose Fresh Organic stuff over Sugar laden stuff.

How to lose weight or GO GREEN

Ok, all the talk about "how did you loose weight"?

It's not a diet, it's not an exercise machine....

It's a LIFESTYLE CHANGE  -  One day at a time!  (Baby steps)

Making a commitment to get your MIND, SPIRiT and Body detoxed from bad habits and developing Healthy Habits.  (one year of blogging on this)

                Today..... I want to say :        

               

Eat your VEGGIES!

The Sun's rays reach the earth as an "inexhaustible source of energy,"
said seven - time Nobel Prize nominee Dr. Johanna Budwig of Germany.  


"the sources of power in mineral oil, coal, green plant-food, and fruits are based on the energy supplied by the sun's radiation."

According to the U.S. National Library of Medicine with the National Institutes of Health, plant foods derive green pigments from chlorophyll. Wheatgrass, for example, is a nutrient-dense green plant food that is made up of approximately 70 percent chlorophyll. Green plant foods like wheatgrass may provide health benefits that protect you ailments like cancer. A "Natural News" article suggests that chlorophyll in green plant foods has an important blood detoxification role in your liver.

 WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO GROW UP! 

Cereal grasses, vegetables, fruits, seeds and sprouts all depend upon the energy of the sun for their very existence, and they are the most efficient means to transfer the sun's energy to animals and humans. 


Wheatgrass juice:  loaded with minerals, proteins, antioxidant enzymes, and chlorophyll


Parsley, eaten or juiced, is a great source of chlorophyll and wonderful internal breath mint.


Cilantro is thought by many to support the body's release of toxins.


Green Cabbage has powerful sulfur compounds to support the body in detoxification


Broccoli sprouts boast exciting research extolling the health benefits of these tiny sprouts


Asparagus is wonderful for support of kidney function


Kale is rich in many nutrients, including vitamin C and trace minerals


Deep green lettuce is a great source of vitamins, minerals and fibers


Celery is a prime source of electrolytes and great base for fresh green juice

Spinach contains some of the highest levels of 

antioxidants of any green veggie

I think we have a lot of nerve, 
          crying to God when we are sick! 
 After all he gives us the wonderful Healing foods of the earth to give us Energetic Health!  

Hippocrates: 

“Let food be thy medicine 

and medicine be thy food”

Do you know "Art" or Why can't I lose weight?

"Who is this "Art" in Heaven guy
you keeping taking about?"



Do you know "Art"?

True Health, Wellness and Beauty is derived from "Balancing"  Your Life.

You are Body, Mind and Spirit

Your Creator "Art"  designed  YOU
Your Spirit in Housed in Your Body
Your whole Being is intertwined an connected

 Nourish and Exercise your BODY, your MIND and your Spirit

You WILL BE this amazing person God Intended you to be

Most of us are unbalanced purely because we are consumed about how we look.   

(outward appearance).  We think if we look "good" we'll be successful in life.   That is partly true.  First impressions are extremely important.  WE associate successful people with "looking successful"   So we chase the wind.... 

                                     We desire  to "loose weight"  get in shape because....?   

Why are most of us unsuccessful 

in losing weight we need to lose? 

Because we are NOT BALANCING our lives.

Flat out truth.....  is you need to

    Examine  your motivation to loose weight

    Examine your affair with food

    Examine your coping mechanisms in life

    Examine your general life style choices

    Examine your heart's desires in life

    Examine your thoughts

    Examine your approach to "what life is about"

    Examine, Examine, Examine....

Can I ask you?

Where does "Art" fit into your life?  

When you Examine who you are and why you were created 

(find your purpose for being)  

Then you will be able put all the pegs in the holes. You will be able to put together the puzzle of your life

Did you notice that the "Lords Prayer"  recognizes that we 

NEED our DAILY BREAD! 

When we seek the Bread of Life the "God's Words"  more 

than the Bread of  the "Panera Bakery"... 

We will be "FIt for Life"

We need to Nourish our Spirit's daily with the "BREAD of LIFE"!  Wake up every morning 

and instead of heading to the Refrigerator... Head for the kitchen Table with the Bible and ingest the Bread of Life. 

All the nourishment we NEED to feed our Spirit is in the "Inspired Word" the Bible.  It holds the answers to all of our Questions.  

It holds within it's pages 

all the words we need to ingest 

to bring us 

Hope, Life, Healing, Wellness.

Do you ever ask yourself these question:  

Why do I resist or avoid eating the food's that I know are best for my body?   

Why do I resist or avoid reading the Bible?  

Why do I resist or avoid exercising?

The Answer my Friend will only come 

when you exam your life by the "Word of ART"

Sing it for me.... 

        "How Great thou ART"..... "How GREAT THOU ART"

Laughter is the best medicine! 

Ciao,

  Have a Blessed day

To your Health and Wellness

What a way to start my day.... listening to Carrie sing it out!

 

ONE question today or my blog Dedicated to my Dad

Where do you get your Inspiration for living?


        Hummmmmmm

Ciao and God Bless you
ps  
It's not easy to ask one question since one question leads to another, and another, and another, and another, and another.....  that's the point!  
Boy... I miss my Dad .....he was a man who "asked questions"
hummmmmm

And I didn't get this from Tony Robbins

I can't believe it...




I know it's true.... so why am I so surprised.  
                      I know the truth, but it seems to get lost in the noise of my life.




I'm working on a project that has given me a shot in the arm of excitement and energy!


This is why I need to blog this fact.,,,

When you find a passion for something... 

you'll find a renewed sense of being

Ya know I talk about balance in our lives brings Health and Wellness

This morning, it dawned on me that our creator placed this need for "passion" in our lives.


We live a slow boring fatiguing existence when we deny our self the experience of being passionate about something or maybe" someone" or maybe a dream, vision or desire.

     Passion  is what motivates us, 

inspires us, feeds our very being.

I believe that it was and is God's desire that we (humans) are passionate about a relationship  with HIM.  Yet, in our carnal nature, we seek out "things" that really never fully satisfy this longing for "passion" in our life.  Oh, we may find it temporarily ....  

but really finding ourselves happens   when 

we find  our passion is a

relationship with our creator  

Then we have a passion for loving ourselves as our creator loves us

We will then start to respect 

our self by taking care of our self  

I know that my passion for loving and nurturing my family motivate me...   
It's also True, that when I've been on a project like decorating a home, or planning an event/dinner... I feel the passion and excitement that motivates and inspires me to feel fulfilled in my accomplishments. 


Well,   I have come to recognize  that finding "passion"  to take care of and nurture me has been transforming.   

It came from acknowledging and acting like  I'm created for a purpose.  

BUT, Until I balance my  whole being (body, mind and spirit)  finding "passion" is nearly impossible. 


You know I like parables, so here is one:


 Picture yourself as a car ....
a car that is deeply in need of being repaired.  Your seats torn, soiled... the interior smelly from left over fast food left on the floor.  You use cheap gas and the exterior is needing cleaning and detailing.  


WHO in the world would want to ride in this car!   
                 How can you take care of transporting others ?  
                                         How reliable are you to get to your destination? 

I'm relating this car to ... someone who may just sit's around!  No direction -  
NO planned destination!


I'm relating  that this car ... has the smell of unforgiveness, resentments and  is harboring anger, like old left over fast food trash.


 I'm relating that the repairs  needed  would  be like...you needing to exercise to detox your body of the pollutants you're exposed to in the  food you eat and in the air you breath. Exercise to redefine and strengthen those muscles.... to bring oxygen to every cell in your body (including your brain that needs some oxygen! LOL) 

I'm relating that the soil and dirt are like the thoughts we take in and store in our mind.. 

The  "NEGATIVES.... the " I can not do it", " it never works", 

 "*@O(#&%*#  always happens to me",.... 

the statements of defeat ..... 

an acceptance reinforced by the self  proclaimed prophetic words  of   

"I AM.... sick,  I AM... getting sick"  

        

The self flagellation's that we do to our self that defeats our spirit. 

The car in this parable is your Body...  The Temple that your spirit lives in.

IT's NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO GET ANYWHERE IN LIFE 

UNTIL YOU 

GET YOURSELF IN SHAPE!  

(physically, mentally, and spiritually)

                              BALANCE YOUR LIFE!!!!!!!!!

The passion to feed and nurture  and cleanse  our  
MIND, BODY and SPIRIT 
each moment of the day 
happens when we recognize that 
our body is the TEMPLE that is the home for our eternal Spirit.  

It's a temple (our body) that has invited 
a living GOD to living in! (?)

                 

 RESPECT IT!  Catch the passion to repair, clean, re-decorate the temple!  

Matthew 9:16  

 ¹⁶ “Besides, who would patch old clothing with new cloth? 

For the new patch would shrink and rip away from the old cloth, 

leaving an even bigger tear than before.

Let God's word RENEW you

Physically, Mentally and Spiritually

**********************************

When I bring balance to my world 

I then become available 

to be "passionate" 

about following 

my dreams, hopes and desires
 I then will  have the courage to reach higher

Catch the Passion!
