Godly Family – January 7, 2008

Welcome to the January 7, 2008 edition of godly family.

Erika Wilson presents Why Did I Get Married? posted at Royally Redeemed, saying, “The first months of my marriage were the most stressful of my life. I was under tremendous pressure to do the right thing and not my own thing. Once I trashed my selfish ways, I began to consider my husband and treat him the way that he treated me. My marriage became the blessing that it was intended to be.”

Tupelo Kenyon presents How to Live the Life of Your Dreams Through Intuition posted at Tupelo Kenyon, saying, “Intuition feels good. That should be enough of a clue it’s something that can be trusted. But, our culture has done a thorough job of instilling doubt about the wisdom of following our instincts. Instead, we are taught to think things through and be logical. These mental tools are important, but they were never intended to be used instead of intuition. They work better when used in conjunction with intuition. If we are open to it, we get nudges and insights to move us in the direction of our greatest joys, our most valuable contributions, and our most satisfying life. Those quiet whispers and gentle taps on the shoulder are examples of inner guidance in action ? intuition. (Enjoy soothing instrumental music as you read plus songs with lyrics related to each article ? all free.)”

Children

Carole G. McKay presents Dutch Diplomat Has Immunity From Compassion posted at McKay Today, saying, “Nature or nuture…it matters not when exhibiting compassion for all children.”

Family

Tupelo Kenyon presents Ego or Soul? Who’s Driving? posted at Tupelo Kenyon, saying, “Even though I identify my sense of self with soul, there seems to be another ?something? inside forever jockeying for position and making its presence known. This is the ego. What?s the difference? How can you know which one is in charge? What are their characteristics? Since I prefer peace to mayhem and contentment to perpetual, blind striving, my goal is to keep soul in the driver?s seat as often as possible. Instead of an either/or situation, I like the idea of soul and ego peacefully coexisting in a manner that best serves the greater good. (Enjoy soothing instrumental music as you read plus songs with lyrics related to each article ? all free.)”

Theresa L. Twogood presents The Tea Corner, Prayer Closet, & Free Gift For The Holiday! posted at OLIN e-Book e-Publishing, saying, “This is a true blue, zero-cost gift from all of us at OLIN. The holiday edition e-book deals with many of the issues you have high-lighted. It would be wonderfull if you and all your members would read and then pass on their reviews and opinions. Thanks and let me know if there is anything else we could do to help. Merry Christmas!”

Tupelo Kenyon presents Consciously Programming Your Subconscious Mind Before Sleep posted at Tupelo Kenyon, saying, “We are all continuously feeding our minds with the words we read, the audio we hear, and the images we see on the screen. The ideas we expose our minds to immediately before going to sleep are powerful. They sink deep into our subconscious mind as we ease into the alpha state of consciousness, as part of the sleep cycle. Here, the subconscious mind reviews the ideas over and over, not because they are the most important, but simply because they were the most recent. For a life of excellence, you must be the proactive, deliberate, aware, and conscious gatekeeper and feed your mind on purpose. (Enjoy soothing instrumental music as you read plus songs with lyrics related to each article ? all free.)”

Warren Wong presents Conversation Skills / Tips: How To Have A Good Conversation posted at Personal Development for INTJs, saying, “Tips to improve your conversation skills and help you have a good conversation!”
