In the last article in this series we looked at courage. In this one we’re examining surrender. While surrender might seem to be the direct opposite of courage, it’s actually a powerful tool in its own right. The very word ‘surrender’ has several negative connotations: losing a fight, lacking the ability to impose ourselves on […]
Previous articles in this series have looked at a variety of tools that are available to you, 24/7 and entirely free, to help you get to the New Earth. The next tool is faith. Jesus tells us just how powerful faith is in Matthew 17:20. “If you had faith no larger than a mustard seed, […]
Discernment is the art of learning what is right for you. Isaiah 44:19-20 is a classic example of discernment—or the lack of it. “They don’t have enough sense to say to themselves, “I made a fire with half of the wood and cooked my bread and meat on it. Then I made something worthless with […]
In the previous post in this series, Boundaries, I wrote about the necessity of consolidating our emotional boundaries by stepping out of our comfort zone and saying ‘no’ to any situation where we give away our power. In theory this is easy but in practice it’s very hard—and at times it seems almost impossible. Let’s […]
Developing healthy boundaries is a vital part of the journey to the New Earth. Many of our psychological issues arise from poor, missing or over-extended boundaries. In this context, what are boundaries? If we own a property, that property has a boundary. It delineates what is part of the property and what is not. Energetic […]
In the first part of this series I described how breathing is the safety blanket of the inherently unstable evolutionary process. The second part covered intent, the rocket fuel of conscious evolution. But where is this rocket going? Neutrality is the compass that guides your journey to the New Earth. In John 16:33, Jesus tells […]
If breathing is the foundational practice of embodiment, intent is the fuel that carries you towards the New Earth. You cannot make positive changes to your emotional landscape without intending to do so. In Leviticus 19:12 God says, “Do not misuse my name by making promises you don’t intend to keep.” You have been warned: […]
Breathe. No, not like that. That isn’t breathing. That’s just the autonomous nervous system ticking over in low gear while you’re stuck in the traffic jam of life. BREATHE. Breathe in for a count of 3. Hold for a count of 4. Release for a count of 5. Rinse and repeat. That’s more like it… […]
We’ve all been raised with at least some awareness of the 7 deadly sins. What exactly are these sins, so fundamental to the Christian concept of original sin? Mark 7:20 contains one of Jesus’ most damning verdicts on the human condition—one of many. I don’t think I have ever heard anyone quote it. Matthew 15:10-20 echoes […]
