"Who is this "Art" in Heaven guy

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

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!


Ciao

TRAPPED in a BODY or Finding the Treasure in YOU

It astounds me (when I really give thought) that we as humans bury the  treasure that lays inside our being.

If you believe, as I do, that we are 

SPIRITUAL BEINGS.  

Designed and Made by "THEE CREATOR" of this Universe 

for a PURPOSE.....   

Jeremiah 29:11  

¹¹ For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

And if you believe, as I do, that "THEE CREATOR" proved His  Love by becoming a Human (Virgin Birth) and walked with Man (and Woman) and gave us living proof  he was a Divine Being and then   Suffering a Horrible Death on the Cross and then ascending from the Grave  into Heaven.... as a means to pay the debt for mankind's sin.....  (long sentence, I know) ......

  And if you believe, as I do, that this GOD  (named Jesus Christ who was the Son of God) then provided HIS WORD (the Bible: Human Beings Instruction Manual) to us that we TOO can have this power, VICTORY and experience His PEACE and  amazing JOY if we but TRUST in HIM and FOLLOW HIS WORD (obey his Word)......(another long sentence)

Then you too, believe as I do that 

we have everything we NEED 

to be these incredible loving powerful

SPIRITUAL BEINGS 

who live a 

PHYSICAL body.  

And one day,  we will be freed from these Physical bodies and there will be no more sorrow, suffering, disease, illness, tears!   We will TRULY BE FREE! 
                         WHOOOOEEEE  bring it on!  What a Great HOPE we HAVE in Christ.


Ok, ya get the picture that I'm getting pumped up and excited when I speak what I know and what  I believe.

                                Now, I (you too)  just have to LIVE what you and I BELIEVE.  

BALANCE our life, moment by moment!  

When I face a challenge , heartache, disappointment... illness


I need to pull myself up - Use good posture - chin up and SHOUT OUT 


                                       I AM A CHILD of a LIVING GOD!!!

So, Stop your whining and complaining and really, seriously .....
                                         

LIVE LIKE A SPIRITUAL BEING

          

The difference between 

a "believer" and a "non believer"

 is how we re-act and then act when 

we face A N Y T H I N G that comes our way.  

True?

Ciao and Salute! To Your Health and Wellness


PS :   we  really never die (we just get a new body) 
Are you really planning for your future?
