For your consideration….

I bet most of us have heard our parents and teachers say this to us many times. Probably we have given the same advice. So why are we so hesitant? Why are we so afraid?

In the first place as children we receive mixed messages because despite the advice we are given, our parents and teachers don’t follow their own advice. They play it safe. They don’t rock the boat or play it safe. We in turn often do the same thing.

Today we are reminded to ask the fear of the ego to step aside and let your brave authentic self take charge. Overcome fear and take some chances. Try new things. Dare to follow your dream.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…

-Affirm…“I am loved.”

-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”

-Drink lots of water.

-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.

-Try something new. Take a chance.

What made me smile yesterday…

-Morning breakfast with Carol.

-Alex sounding happy.

-Shannon happy to be off and starting her vacation.

-Alex and James sold their house and bought a new one. Quite a day.

Love, Blessings and Gratitude,

Rev. Chris
