Love one another

Mindfulness, Spiritually Awake

1 John 4:9-11
This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

You’re Brand New Now…Ya Gotta Let Go Of Your Past!!

Isaiah 43:18-19

“Forget the former things;

do not dwell on the past. 

See, I am doing a new thing!

Now it springs up;

do you not perceive it?

I am making a way in the dessert

and streams in the wasteland.”

Brand new!!

Is that person in the mirror looking back at you?

It’s true!

But, you can’t see it…

‘Cause you’re stuck on what you’ve been through…

You got that white knuckle, red faced…

Kung fu grip on all your chains..

But, that’s not who are…

I’m here to let you know…

You gotta let it go…

You were made for something more…

So, come on…

And let it go!!

Tell me why…

You’d think that you deserve a life of just getting by…

You are alive!!!

Stop taking flowers to the grave of the old you that died…

If God can take your sin and free ya…

Forget, just like amnesia…

Why are you holding on?

I’m here to let you know…

You gotta let it go…

You were made for something more…

So, come on…

And let it go!!

Let it go!

Love is my Rebellion

Tags

I’m so close to the sky, love, Love is my Rebellion, My gold is warm and shines

.

.

I myself grew a rebellious Eric that is accepting an extraordinary shift of accelerated learning; the observance that is to be rebellious for the goodness that is all agreement.

All agreement – integrity – being the you that you are now, whatever your best, is now, is good, to be of you, as I like to be, rebellious me, to be all – the love that is you as we, we are the observance that is. 

.

.

.

Na na na na na na na

My time is now.
My gold is warm and shines
and nothing can hold me
nothing can hold me.
My heart beats, it’s time to make something happen
I don’t want to wait anymore
I don’t want to wait anymore…

I can see the fear in your eyes
and I can’t help but get up
to show that there are other ways
that hope lives

Love is my rebellion, love is my
Love is my rebellion.
Love is my rebellion, love is my
Love is my religion.

Na na na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na na na

No law, no prayer
You give me what I’m missing
And I’m so close to the sky
So close to the sky…

I can see the fear in your eyes
and I can’t help but get up
to show that there are other ways
that hope lives…

Love is my rebellion, love is my
Love is my rebellion.
Love is my rebellion, love is my
Love is my religion…

Power Of Your Love
.
Olso Gospel Choir.

For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid,
but gives us power,
love and self-discipline.

2 Timothy 1:7

.

.

.

Lord I come to You 
Let my heart be changed, renewed 
Flowing from the grace 
That I have found in You 
And Lord I have come to know 
The weaknesses I see in me 
Will be stripped away 
By the power of Your love 
.
Hold me close 
Let Your love surround me 
Bring me near 
Draw me to Your side 
And as I wait 
I will rise up like the eagle 
And I will soar with You 
Your Spirit leads me on 
In the power of Your love 
.
Lord unveil my eyes 
Let me see You face to face 
The knowledge of Your love 
As You live in me 
And Lord renew my mind 
As Your will unfolds in my life 
In living every day 
By the power of Your love 
.
[chorus]
Hold me close 
Let Your love surround me 
Bring me near 
Draw me to Your side 
And as I wait 
I will rise up like the eagle 
And I will soar with You 
Your Spirit leads me on 
In the power of Your love 
[repeat twice]
.
And I will soar with You 
Your Spirit leads me on 
In the power of Your love

.

“It’s not about finding ways to avoid God’s judgment and feeling like a failure if you don’t do everything perfectly. It’s about fully experiencing God’s love and letting it perfect you. It’s not about being somebody you are not. It’s about becoming who you really are.”

Mihran Kalaydjian Playing on Piano Only You

When I’m with you,
eternity is a step away,
my love continues to grow,
with each passing day.

This treasure of love,
I cherish within my soul,
how much I love you…
you’ll never really know.

You bring a joy to my heart,
I’ve never felt before,
with each touch of your hand,
I love you more and more.

Whenever we say goodbye,
whenever we part,
know I hold you dearly,
deep inside my heart.

So these seven words,
I pray you hold true,
“Forever And Always,
I Will Love You.”

Nostalgia for… Gene Kelly

This is a favorite… some of us may recall

belsbror

Happiness in small things.

I was too young when I saw this film but it left a lasting mark in my psyche.

Whenever it is raining, like now, I want to go out and soak myself wet. I might not be a Gene Kelly (obviously because I cannot dance) but that will not stop me from jumping up and down. 😀

Science, psychology, philosophy… the nature of the self… distracting?

.

If God is available 24 hours a day, mindful connecting with God must always be possible.

.

Sometimes I feel like I’m just existing
I’m not really living
I’m only watching the time slip away
I’ve forgotten who I am in you
I’m not who I’m meant to be
I’m drifting farther away from my destiny
[Chorus:]
Awaken my heart, awaken my soul
Awaken your power and take control
Awaken the passion to live for you, lord
Awaken me
My soul is longing, my heart is searching
I’m desperate for you to move
Give me a hunger, pull me closer
I’m crying out to you
Awaken my heart, awaken my soul
Awaken your power and take control
Awaken the passion to live for you, lord
Open my eyes so I can see your presence
Dwelling inside
Wake me up, ’cause I can’t live another minute
if I’m not shining your light
Awaken my heart, awaken my soul
Awaken the passion in me
Lord, awaken me to live my destiny
Lord, awaken me and shine your light through me
Lord, awaken me to live my destiny
Lord, awaken me and shine your light through me

Three Books That Changed My Life

Hope & Love Radio

First a video 🙂 As you know, Everything I do I do it for You, is my favorite and always been. Its one song I listen to every day.  I also feel it provides hope and love, so here it is once more. 🙂

Secondly, since I’m a librarian currently just by academics and I LOVE to read, I wanted to share three non fiction books that really turned my life around.  I hope you take these to heart, practice what they preach ( I did) and learn to have hope and love in your life.  It takes time for what these books state to come into play, but I guarantee you they work.  Below will be how it effected my life instead of a general overview of the the book. ( Just a little something different)

Buttefly Effect by Andy Andrews– I felt a few years ago that my life didn’t matter…

Revelation Song

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Holy, holy is He
Sing a new song to Him who sits on
Heaven’s mercy seat

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Holy, holy is He
Sing a new song to Him who sits on
Heaven’s mercy seat

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come
With all creation I sing praise to the King of kings
You are my everything and I will adore You

Clothed in rainbows of living color
Flashes of lighting rolls of thunder
Blessing and honor strength and glory and power be
To You the only wise King

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come
With all creation I sing praise to the King of kings
You are my everything and I will adore You

Filled with wonder awestruck wonder
At the mention of Your name
Jesus Your name is power, breath and living water
Such a marvelous mystery

Oh, You’re worthy, mystery
You are worthy

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come
With all creation I sing praise to the King of kings
You are my everything and I will adore You, I will adore You

The Love of God…

Tags

This is fantastic!

.

by divine-design

The love of God, unutterable and perfect,


flows into a pure soul the way that light


rushes into a transparent object.


The more love that it finds,

the more it gives 
itself;

so that, as we grow clear and open,


the more complete the joy of Heaven is.


And the more souls who resonate together,


the greater the intensity of their love,


and, mirror-like,

each Soul reflects the other.

~ Dante Alighieri

Lyrics:

Eyes shut

Ignorance taking over
Let the walls around
Your fake world fall
Look at your life
Look at yourself

Do you like it?

Look around

Yeah you need to
Stop 
Hey
Wake up
Its time
Lets break the chain

Cant you see what you’ve become
You need to change
Need to stop
When you look at yourself
Honestly
Tell me

Do you like it?

“Repeat“

Look around at the world
Yeah you need to stop dreaming
Not far beyond your eyes
A different life

Brandon Heath’s “I’m Not Who I Was”

.

.

 

I wish you could see me now
I wish I could show you how
I’m not who I was

I used to be mad at you
A little on the hurt side too
But I’m not who I was

I found my way around
To forgiving you some time ago
But I never got to tell you so

I found us in a photograph
I saw me and I had to laugh
You know, I’m not who I was

You were there, you were right above me
And I wonder if you ever loved me
Just for who I was

When the pain came back again
Like a bitter friend it was all that I could do
To keep myself from blaming you

I reckon it’s a funny thing
I figured out I can sing
Now I’m not who I was

I write about love and such
Maybe ’cause I want it so much
I’m not who I was

I was thinking maybe I
I should let you know that I am not the same
But I never did forget your name, hello

Well the thing I find most amazing
In amazing grace is the chance to give it out
Maybe that’s what love is all about

I wish you could see me now
I wish I could show you how
I’m not who I was
