I Am Radiant With Health

My Happy Ass Life ·

2022/10/10

I Am Radiant In Health Show NotesI know it's shocking, but I changed my mind at the last minute to do a different affirmation. One I'd written a while back about health. And the reason why I'm focusing on health right now. Well, one of the reasons is because, without our health, we have nothing. I mean, if I don't have good health, nothing else really matters. I can't really do any of the things that I wanna do in life. Some of it we have no control over, but some we do have control over. I guess

I'm sitting on my patio today with the rain coming down. It is glorious. I wanna kinda continue the lesson from my horrible, horrible golf game because it taught me so much. One of the things that I remember hearing said one day, this is not my saying it, somebody else saying, the saying goes "a bad day for the ego is a great day for the soul." -Mike RobbinsA bad day for the ego is a great day for the soul, because when everything in life is just blowing along for us and everything's working

I have missed y'all. Do I have some stories to tell you! Actually, one overreaching story… I learned a lesson and some sad news. I didn't learn it until this morning while I was sitting in the quiet with God. So if I had learned it like 54 holes ago. I would've had a better time. I'm gonna share a verse because I just wanna let you know that I did part of this, but I didn't do the other part of it. See if you can guess which part I didn't do while I was on my golf trip. I'm gonna give you a true

I wasn't gonna tell this story, but I think I'm gonna tell it because it's really bugging me. It's eating at me. I'm gonna talk with the person too. I've told y'all that part of my mission statement is us being more together. I'm a Jesus follower. That means I'm not a Republican follower or a Democrat follower. That doesn't mean I don't have opinions about things. It just means that my opinions are so much less important than my ability to love God and his kids. I love myself, I love others, I

Be The Coffee BeanWhen Damon West was getting ready to go to prison, An elderly gentleman in the holding tank said to him, "Boy, I'm gonna tell you something that's gonna help you while you're in prison. You need to be the coffee bean."Damon West said, " I don't follow."The elderly gentleman said "This is the deal. If you take the pot of boiling water and you put a carrot in the pot of boiling water.

Blessings For Me And For YouShow NotesThe world's crazy. Isn't it? The world's cray cray. Turns out that I'm okay with cray cray. I'm good. I can handle cray-cray very easily. That works okay for me. I think one of the things that I've noticed that happens is that sometimes we think if somebody wins and somebody loses, that's not always the case in life. That's not always the case. I think there are blessings that are out there for all of us. To grab a hold of it and just because somebody else

Grace Goes Before Me

My Happy Ass Life ·

2022/09/26

I've been thinking a lot about grace and how much it's needed right now in my world for me and for others. So I wrote something about grace that I'd like to share with you and then elaborate on. I want to talk about what grace does for me. I need more of it. I need more of it for myself and for others. Because when I find myself wanting to change somebody, instead of changing me, I think, Nope...That's not how grace works. Grace allows me to love people where they are. To give them grace to be who

This Sacred Day

My Happy Ass Life ·

2022/09/22

Not long ago we talked about "Today I will". Today I would like to talk about the sacredness of one day. The sacredness of what you can do in one day. In one moment, I think we get so wrapped up around the chain of trying to figure out everything. The next day, the next day, the next day. In the rooms of recovery, they call that future tripping. We do it too. Those of us that aren't in recovery, we do future tripping. We think "What if? what if?" but we usually say, "What if, oh my gosh, what if it

God’s Spirit In Me Show NotesThe only thing we have to adhere to is one rule. So cool! I love one rules. I don't like all the rules. This is one rule I can handle love. God, love people.

My Responsibility

My Happy Ass Life ·

2022/09/15

Everything in life is my responsibility. I cannot point fingers at others. I can't say you should have, or they should have. I am responsible. I'm responsible for what I do with my life. I'm responsible 100%. How I treat others, I am responsible. So many times we try to jump in and be responsible for other people and we push God out of the way. God is in the middle of doing some handy, amazing work in people's lives, and we just jump in and we muck it all up. I think too many times we, especially

Look Like Love, Sound Like Love

My Happy Ass Life ·

2022/09/14

ShownotesToday’s affirmation “Look Like Love and Sound Like Love” was deeply inspired by a quote from Bob Goff devotional:“Find friends who sound like Jesus and put them on repeat in our lives.” As well as Biblical scripture: Colossians 4:6 NIV Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.The old Testament stuff has passed away. That is history. That is biblical history. It is not how we live today. We do not conquer people. We do not

My Time To Encourage Show NotesI'm watching this company grow right now. There's a company that came to me a few years ago, the young man came to me and they said, You know what? We really like the way you run your company, and we want to pattern our company after yours. They were unapologetic for that. I thought that was so kind and sweet, it made my heart happy and they're amazing. Now they are doing some really good things and they're growing and they're getting so strong. But, you know that the

Don't let your fear of something stop you. Don't let that stop you. You may be the only person in the world that says what you're gonna say and does what you're gonna do. To change one person who will then, in turn, change another person and then another, then another. Don't be silent with your passion and your purpose. Do it every day. Every day, you're alive to do something that's gonna make a difference in your life. In the lives of others. If you do that, you are living a life worth living

Creative Visualizations Show Notes I read something in an old book by Sarah Ban Breathnach. I love "The Simple Abundance" and every now and then I grab that book out and I read it. It's really old school too, as well. I don't know, new stuff meets old school. I don't know, but it's an old book. I've had it since the year 2000. One of the things that Sarah says is nature never repeats herself, and the possibility of one human soul will never be found in another. I also like this quote by Elizabeth

Have you ever asked yourself, "How do I Feel?" When you wake up and you look in the mirror, Do you ask yourself, "How do I look? But, a better question to ask yourself is how do I feel? What am I doing to nourish myself, my soul, my mind, my body? What are the things I'm doing to make me feel more like a whole person inside?The outside will show your inner feelings.Have you ever seen people who're well rested and they're happy?

Self-Esteem

2022/09/01

Self-esteem is something that I've had a hard time with. When I was younger, I kind of thought the people that had self-esteem were the ones that were just doing big things, and they were like naturally smart, naturally gifted, naturally, all these amazing things. That they had self-esteem and that the only way to get it was to be like them. I realize that self-esteem is just really personal. It's kind of like where I am and where I want to be. How do I build my life and where I am and where I want

How do we love others? How do we do it? How do we show love to others? I think a lot of us think it's gotta be big, you know? I love to do big things. Not only that, but I love to make big shows of love. I love, love, love to go and do a big fundraiser and raise a lot of money for charity. I love to give big amounts of money to somebody if they need it. If I have it. I love the big things. I do! But you know what matters more than that? I know you're thinking, certainly something can't matter more

External Forces

2022/09/01

It is very important that we are not moved and swayed by external forces, that we don't let the external forces of our lives rule us and own us. That we don't let negativity and all those things bother us. We also don't need to ignore it. I've had some things that are within my life, especially in business, and in my personal life, too that I've ignored because I have a gift and that gift is also a detriment. The very gifts that you have, if not used properly in balance, can be your greatest

Energy Show NotesToday I'd like to talk about energy. So have you ever heard people say? Oh my God, I'm just so tired. They say that all the time, they convince themselves they are so tired and they think that the way to not be tired is to just do less? No, I just need to rest more. No. Resting more, unless you're sick, unless you've just been pulling an all-nighter, unless you've just been really on it for a long time. Resting more is not really your solution. Doing more is your solution. Getting
