End of Scripture Writing Plan for September...

And just like that a month has passed... I have to say that I did actually enjoy the readings that I did this month.  I also found them a little confusing and frustrating at times, but I think that is OK as it made me question things more. Have I completely changed my beliefs? No...I think that will take a bit more than a few chapters...

Scripture Writing Plan - Day 30

Day 30 - 1 Thessalonians 5: 19 - 24 19.  Quench not the Spirit. 20.  Despise not prophesyings. 21.  Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. 22.  Abstain from all appearance of evil. 23.  And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless...

Balance...

How Funny that the 'catch up' (I am 5 days behind eek) comes just when we reach THAT word...yes I am referring to BALANCE! September 24 - Balance 'Just as nature needs balance, people need balance'. 'A human being is multidimensional. A human doing however is more like a drawn line than a faceted gem'. So what exactly is a balanced...

Confusion / Doing it all...

September 23 - Confusion / Doing it all... 'When I bring myself to a situation, that is the best I have to offer'. Today's meditation spoke of the confusion we face in having to be someone different for varying situations.  For instance; the skills we need to communicate in our working lives, do not serve a purpose when dealing with our...

Gardening News...

We haven't really had much time at all to get out in the garden this week but we did achieve the following... Mum brought me some potted colour so I moved my 'rock art' in the garden bed along the back patio and planted them in there.  They look so pretty, what a shame they will die off completely because they are only annuals. We finished...

Confusion...

September 22 - Confusion... Today's meditation basically spoke about us having way too many voices in our heads and it drowning out the sound of our own knowing. Our confusion in life comes from trying to please others, rather than doing what feels right for us. How amazing it would feel to live in a way that the opinions of others didn't...

Meditation - September 19th to 22nd...

September 19 - Being Present To The Moment 'I rejoice in the moment of total oneness. For in that moment, I am truly myself both within and beyond.' Reminder The bird stops amidst the chaos But it takes no notice of the hustle and bustle In which the human race endures Its attention focused only upon the sweet nectar Which is before it The...

Scripture Writing Plan - Days 18 to 23

Day 18, 19, 20, 21, 22 and 23 - Colossians 3: 1 - 25 1.  If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2.  Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. 3.  For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4.  When Christ,...

Scripture Writing Plan - Day 15, 16, 17

I'm a little behind in posting but I have actually been reading the verses each day... Day 15 - 2 Timothy 1: 6 - 8 6. Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. 7. For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 8....

Some big news...

Sooooo... As of November 2016, I will be a university student again, studying a Bachelor of Naturopathy. I am so excited and nervous all at the same time. Excited because it's something I am passionate about and it blends in well with my massage modality and because I love learning new things. Nervous because I can remember how stressful...

Feelings...

September 15 - Feelings 'It is fighting our feelings that causes our suffering, not our feelings.' Feelings are quite simply our reaction to different situations in our lives, be it something that makes us happy or sad. Quite often we will label those feelings in the positive or negative bracket, but in reality they just are...not good, not...
