And On It Goes.....Life That Is

Life has many qualities, segments and layers.
Each of us have the option of what we do with our “Life Time”

God gave us life: In Genesis he placed the man he had created within the Garden of Eden and breathed life into his nostrils. So Adam became a “living” human being. There is also an intrinsic life upholding the mere shell. This “life” stems from our thoughts. In the moments of the day we thing, we choose……

What are the sources of reference you are choosing from?
Be purposeful with allowing your mind to linger or NOT. It is YOUR choice and yours alone.

Think about THAT today =D  And write what you take away from this poem - there are a few more questions following it.

I love you all - Be the beauty in the midst of Chaos ......You ARE beautiful!!

Kisses,
Candace


Life in full bloom

Pick each moment like a flower
Selected with intent
Appreciate its fragrance
The design of the elegant stem
Feel the texture of each petal
The essence of the oil within
The life upon its stamens
The beauty the eyes behold

So delicate is this flower
Withstanding all life’s storms
In season it pushes through the darkness
Gently curves as it reaches new heights
Rising up to open in splendor
Embracing the beauty of Gods design
Fragrantly sharing of all its essence
Allowing others the experience of her gifts
The beauty and fragrance encourage the weary
Knowing when picked its one life will soon fade

Although it is alive no more than mere moments
The memories are larger than its own precious life
The people touched by one simple flower
The seeds scattered to bring forth a new life
Though for a time under earth seed are buried
The dirt knows not what it is holding onto
God’s sends nourishment to ensure strength for deliverance
He knows the time, season and need
He plants his seeds to prosper each place
He revels while watching the journey into true beauty
Releasing gentle winds which carry essence when released

God willing her seeds will greatly scatter
In peace her roots grow down deep
With joy she sways, face uplifted
Toward the beams of the bright morning star
In warmth she stands till her time is finished
To return to that, from which she came.

Think on this and choosing your moments with intent.

• One life
• Seasons and storms

Time, Times and Half a Time....is there ever enough TIME?

We have discussed many thing about our thoughts, our beliefs, the coulda shoulda woulda's and our focus.  Now we are going to get Honest with all that.  We will be starting to apply this to "LIFE".  So, today I ask you to think / journal a bit more as you think about what you believe Life even is composed of. 

What is life to you? 

Don't try to write the "correct" answer or even one that is insightful  - really do this just for you. On any given day we have the perfunctory list of items to attend to.  I am sure many of our lists are pretty realistic and obtainable....maybe even a bit impressive if anyone glances over our shoulder. 

Time well spent? 
What is time? 
Does time end?

Time began before my life began, it was already in progress, and it keeps going long after my last heart beat.
These are simply facts and they cannot be disputed. 
Do your minutes, breaths, heart beats live beyond each second?
Do they vanish with no more of a thought than that beautifully fragrant flower which brings us such delight?

Think about it...talk about it.....share your discoveries.  Tomorrow we will start our sojourn through time, space, breath, life and purpose with intent.

My prayer for each of us is that when we breath in we remember that the first breath was Gods; when we exhale we desire to share of all He has provided and then use the power of voice to speak life into every nook and cranny of this crazy, amazing, adventurous, sojourn we are blessed to live out.

In the powerful name of Christ Jesus our Lord,
Kisses,
Candace
