AUTHENTICITY

© Sandy Rodgers Ministries

 

January 28^th

 

What does Authenticity mean to you? Have you ever heard the phrase, ‘Being your authentic self’? Let’s take a look at this a little closer.

 

In using the Bible as reference, in Genesis it states we are made in the image and likeness of God. Is our authentic self then of goodness, if we are created in the image of the Supreme Being? I say, Yes!

 

We receive misleading statements as children which may have us think differently about ourselves. Statements like, “Be patient with me, God is not finished with me yet.”

 

God is finished with YOU! Now it is up to you to act as a complete person. You are alive and well, created in the image and after the likeness of God! What more could you possibly ask for? As you live and breathe, you are complete and whole. At your birth you were granted all the rights to the Kingdom. Do not allow anyone to tell you something different.

 

Your Authentic Self is marvelous and glorious! Your Authentic Self is radiantly alive and prosperous. Your Authentic Self knows no boundaries. Your Authentic Self knows the Power it has.

 

Authenticity means to shed oneself of all, everything that would allow you to think differently. Authenticity means you are created for Goodness, Prosperity, Abundance and Whole Life!

 

Authenticity means _________________________, you get to fill in the blank for yourself.

 

Live a whole life filled with compassion and acceptance for others. We are each created by the same Awesome, Merciful, All-power, Benevolent, Source we call God. Be Your Authentic Self and allow your Light to shine!

WHAT’S IN YOUR WALLET?

©Sandy Rodgers Ministries

 

January 27^th

 

 

I like that question? However I would like to rephrase it so it asks what thoughts are we holding in the abundance chamber of our minds?

 

What do you carry around with you in your wallet (thoughts)? I carry abundance, fullness, wholeness and prosperity. My wallet is filled to overflowing with gratitude and thanksgiving. I carry Hope, Faith and Unconditional Love in my wallet.

 

I spend what’s in my wallet with care and good judgment. I know what I give out will return to me. So I do not attempt to cash counterfeit money, deceit or unforgiveness. I handle all affairs with truth and honesty. I use the correct currency, an attitude of gratitude, when paying for a purchase.

 

Do you know what is in your wallet? Is it empty or full? Flat or plump? How often do you check the contents? Do you know where everything is in your wallet? Is something hiding from you in there?

 

I clean my wallet out as often as possible to make room for more goodness in my life. So if I accepted a counterfeit, I quickly toss it away. I do not hold a grudge against the person who gave it to me. If there are any empty spaces, I fill them with Peace. If I am carrying too much in my wallet I may become lopsided, in which case I am off balance. To remain balanced is my goal. I limit what I carry in my wallet.

 

I only carry exactly what I need for this life; thoughts of Hope, Strength, Love, Faith and Wisdom. I have compartments for all that I wish to have manifested in my life: Blessings, Encouragement, Support, Power, Prosperity, Abundance, Integrity, and Courage.

SUPER BOWL

January 26^th

 

 

 

The Super Bowl is only days away, are you excited? I am. The Championship gets to tell a wonderful story, about life! For to get to the Super Bowl, you have sacrificed idle time for time to practice. To get to the Super Bowl, each person made a sincere commitment to giving their best. The Super Bowl is a Team Effort, played as such and won as such.

 

 

Who is playing on your team? Have you gathered the Best players and covered all the positions? What is your strategy? Do you have the right replacements? What is your game plan?

 

 

Do you acknowledge the accomplishments of those on your team? Did the children do good in school today? Did your co-worker go the extra mile to satisfy a customer/client? Does your team know you are proud of them? Celebrate the TEAM.

 

What are you celebrating about your team? Are you celebrating the fact that you have agreed to serve as the leader? Are there other team members who are doing an exceptional job? Is anyone willingly making a change that they could use some encouragement or support with?

 

 

I play on a winning team, it is THE GAME OF LIFE TEAM! I practice daily. I play hard at each game. I give my best in every game. I salute the players on my TEAM with RESPECT! WE are ready to win the Super Bowl.

QUIET TIME

© Sandy Rodgers Ministries

 

January 25^th

 

 

The other day as I was going about doing my work, I had the opportunity to attempt to contact a business associate. I sent two emails and after no response I called him and left a voicemail message.

 

Much to my amazement I received an email from my friend saying he was experiencing quiet time and would not be available until after noon. That was so cool to me and also very wise. We must have reflection and meditation time to reconnect to our Source, God.

 

How much time each day do you spend in quiet? How much time is devoted to being still and listening for your answers? I take a couple of hours daily. It means for me that I get up earlier for it to happen. I have been doing that for a long time. When my now adult son was younger in order for me to be able to exercise daily I had to get up an extra hour earlier than him. I reaped the benefits of beginning my day with increased circulation and energy. Now that extra time is spent in meditation and quietness.

 

You can handle stress and overwhelming conditions by being still. Being in a frantic state constantly only perpetuates the challenge. That is true because we do not allow guidance from The Creator when we are always too busy to listen. We gain strength and wisdom in the quiet. We increase our faith and confidence in the quiet. We trust ourselves in the quiet.

 

Most times, my house is very quiet. But I can crank the volume up when I want to. This is not the preferred noise level in my home. Set yours wherever you choose. In the mix of the day add in a set time to be: QUIET.

 

Watch how situations change. Watch how you will be inspired to do something in a different way. Listen for the Inner Guidance. Hear God speaking to you. Receive the empowering Spirit in your quiet time.

 

I dedicate a portion of each day to being still, in the quiet of my own Soul and Spirit.

M.O.R.E

M      Manifesting

O       Our

R       Reality

E       Everyday

 

 

What do you want to increase in your life? Improved health and vitality? Financial abundance? Happy and harmonious relationships? Utilizing additional gifts and talents?

 

You can have whatever you believe you can have. Your actions are a reflection of your thoughts, what you believe to be true about a situation.

 

To improve your health, you may consider your diet. Do you eat out often at fast food places? You can change and eat differently by preparing your foods which are nutritious and wholesome. You can add fresh fruits and vegetables to your list of edibles. You can walk a little longer distance each day; when you go to the mall park your car the farthest distance from the entrance or at work take a stroll to the person’s office instead of calling or emailing them. There are little things that you can do to increase your health.

 

Financial abundance for most of us is very difficult to welcome. The thought or conversation around money is most times made in fear. Money is purely ‘energy’ that circulates. We must become comfortable with the notion that we can have it. The absolute very first thing we must do is determine we are worthy and deserving of prosperity, financial blessings. I have had to repeat affirmations for months for that to sink into my core. I have looked in the mirror and said it loudly! I kept going until I could smile when I said it, then it was real for me.

 

Relationships, all of them are a reflection of you! So what are we bringing into the mix of others? Do you bring unconditional acceptance for the other person(s)? What do you still need to deal with around interpersonal issues before becoming involved with another? Bring JOY in and you will receive JOY. Bring in Harmony and there will be balance in the relationship. You are the key, not the other person. Bring your best and receive the best!

To get MORE, you must be willing to give MORE.

 

Manifesting Our Realities Everyday is our commandment!

ITS OVER

© Sandy Rodgers Ministries

 

 

January 23rd

 

Well, yesterday is gone forever. Allow the past to be just that, the past. We cannot stay in something that is no longer. So yesterday, last week, last year or twenty years ago, it is all behind us now.

 

Today I begin anew; fresh, fresh new ideas, fresh new attitude, and fresh new life. Today I discover a new talent. Today I summon the Power of The All -Knowing, All-Wisdom, All-Intelligence Creator. I live the best life possible this day. Today I bury the past with gratitude.

 

The present is all I really have. Today I live my life in thoughts of abundance and prosperity. Today I demonstrate appreciation for every thing, big and small. Today I proclaim, ‘I will understand the past is over, forever gone.’

 

Today is a gift. I show wisdom in my thoughts and actions. This present day I know with all certainty that my dreams, hopes and desires are mine for the asking. I am closer to their realization than ever before. I think newness. I think with clarity. I Am Grateful!

 

It is over, regardless of the conditions.  It is over and I am glad. I did the best I could with the knowledge that I have attained. I may choose to handle it differently the next time it comes around. But for now I am satisfied with my actions. I did do my best!

 

I am growing each day. I am learning the value in living and life. I do appreciate my human existence. I remain a student, always learning and expanding my knowledge and awareness. Yes, yesterday is over. Today I celebrate a brand new day with all the vigor, excitement and energy I can.

HOLDING YOUR VISION

January 20th

 

 

Okay your vision has not manifested as of yet. Can you hold on just a little longer? Or are you going to give up right before the harvest? It is only a millisecond away!

 

This is Harvest Time. This year is of New Beginnings and Great Possibilities. We must hold on. We must not give up. It’s our time to reap! Yes, that’s right it is our time to harvest. We have sowed with patience. We have sowed with unconditional love. We have sowed with gratitude. We have sowed with Faith. We have sowed with Joy. We reap what we sow.

 

Celebrate your accomplishments. Celebrate your life. Celebrate your ability to just keep on keeping on. Celebrate with deep appreciation. Jump, shout, and dance! Today is the day to claim your success!

 

It feels absolutely grand and wonderful. Our time has come, your time and mine. I feel it. I can see it. I bear witness to it. I am thankful for its arrival. I am holding to my vision.

 

I see a world of inspired folks, empowered to do their specialized work. I feel the energy of people who positively impact the world. I taste the sweet nectar of unconditional love circulating through every home and in every person. I hear the voices of the children who have been mentored by wise adults, who have been told they can achieve if they only believe.  Hope is alive. Faith is alive. We are alive!

 

Hold on to your vision. Know that this is your time of New Beginnings!

PEACE MAKER, PEACE KEEPER

© Sandy Rodgers Ministries

 

 

 

January 19th

 

 

I choose Peace! I choose to be a Peace Maker and a Peace Keeper.

 

I choose Peace as my way of life. I give Peace and I receive Peace. I radiate Peace out into the Universe and it returns to me pressed down, shaken together and overflowing.

 

I do not allow anyone or anything to disturb my Peace. If a person or situation is not in alignment with Peace, I kindly ask them to leave. It is not rude or disrespectful. Rather it is an act of insisting that confusion be kept away from you.

 

I walk into rooms filled with crowds of people and the energy shifts immediately because of my presence. I bring Peace and Joy. We can each do that if we choose to do it. It’s like the sunshine that warms you. Peace restores and replenishes.

 

My home is filled with Peace. Peace fills every nook and cranny, every corner of my home is deposited with Peace. When people visit they do not want to leave. Peace is always a welcoming agent to others. Peace soothes the soul. Then there maybe others who want to rob my dwelling of this serenity. I do not allow that to happen. It has taken time and effort to anchor my home in Peace and no one is privileged to undo it. I protect my Peace-filled dwelling like a proud parent.

 

Be a Peace Maker. Be a Peace Keeper. Let that thought rule your actions this day. Peace Be Still!

 

Sending you bountiful blessings of ABUNDANT PEACE!
