Weekly Challenge March 27, 2011 - April 2, 2011

Change is here dear friend! If you have not joined yet, consider becoming an active participant and challenge yourself to say "YES"! Engage yourself in making the changes you wish to become! Say "YES" to you! You deserve to be your own creator of change and lay the path towards personal success. We all have our own paths and destinies in this lifetime however, pushing yourself to grow as you move along your path will lead you closer to the divine love within. Join us in the weekly challenges and say "YES" to YOU! Weekly Challenge- Turn discouragement into HOPE This week's challenge came through loud and clear! In a world where there is so much change, it is easy to become discouraged. Feeling like you don't have any control over things that are impacting your life or the lives of others can lead to these feelings naturally. The angels ask us to turn our discouragement into HOPE, to believe and have faith that there is a reason for all things that happen to you, to all of us. During these times, it can become very easy to feel like nothing is going your way and that you have little control over the changes you wish could happen. Believe there is a reason for your place and time and know the angels are with you along your journey. Having said that, the angels know it can become more difficult for us to see their perspective on life. They have asked for daily inspirations/affirmations to come into play during this challenge. If you have a way to commit to positive affirmations daily, GREAT! Please commit to reading a positive affirmation several times a day and contemplate on how this applies to your life in order to see things from a different perspective. If you do not have access to receiving positive affirmations, I will be posting one daily on my blog. In the words of the angels: "Your thoughts are your being. We ask for you to consider beyond your logical thinking into your heart where the words of positive love exist always. We see your sorrow, fears and worries and only wish for you to know there is more at play in your life than you give rise to at this point in time. Be positive and know love exists. What is not in your control was never yours to control in the first place. This may not feel good for you to hear but it is truth none the less. With faith in our words, the flow of your life will come easier in terms of seeing the love that exists in all things. Know we are with you always, in all ways and we see you for the love you truly are. Give this challenge thought and put the words given this week into action. Feel them in your heart and know that truth exists in this place. We see all of the turmoil that change has for you but know that change happens for you to grow and flourish more and more in your truth, in your love. We ask for you to try and have faith in this place of love as there is so much more in store for you. Just wait dear child, wait with patience and know new doors are about to open for you to go through and experience love in a deeper and more positional way." When we are able to see things from a different perspective, we can become inspired and help to inspire others around us. Challenge yourself this week and turn discouragement into HOPE! Today's affirmation: "I rejoice in the love I encounter every day!" From: www.vitalaffirmations.com Beautiful like GOD There is something so sweet, so innocent about children. It's difficult to put a handle on but it is there all the while. Beautiful like GOD. Something that I think we take advantage of until we see it fading away. When children age, their innocence can be removed by what we consider as the "harshness" of what we interpret as "reality". Bring joy and beauty like that of children into your world...remember who you are, Beautiful one like GOD. It is still there, just under the surface waiting for you to remember. Waiting to blossom like that of the sweet flower in the morning dew.
