After four thwarted attempts at racing an ultramarathon, Tina Muir ran the Bryce Canyon 50 Miler on May 20th. Bryce Canyon almost didn't happen either; the race was on the same day as the funeral of her close friend, Patrick, whom she had lost just a few weeks earlier, and she struggled with whether or not to run. But Patrick's widow knew that he would have wanted her to carry on and encouraged her to run the race to honor him.  Patrick must have been proud: Tina finished first female, third overall, and with the 4th-fastest women's time in the race's history.

Healthy Mindset for Athletes & Workplace Athletes Helping Athletes Achieve Their Dreams and Goals While Being Mindful of Everything in Else In Life!Chapter 3: The AssessmentReflect and Celebrate Set IntentionsReframe and Master Mindsets Identify and Prioritize Your ValuesIn order to figure out how to move forward, it is necessary to take a look at your current situation to find out what is working and what isn't. By breaking down your life into smaller, manageable pieces, it's much easier to see where you succeed and what is holding you back. In his book Essentialism, Greg McKeown wrote, “Essentialism is not about how to get more things done; it's about how to get the right things done... It is about making the wisest possible investment of your time and energy in order to operate at our highest point of contribution by doing only what is essential (McKeown, 2022)”. By focusing on what is essential and eliminating the things that don't serve you, it becomes much easier to set achievable goals, create systems that work, and find success to keep you motivated. As you work through the questions in this chapter, take time to reflect on each of your answers before moving forward. At the end of the assessment, you will have all of the pieces needed to move through the rest of the workbook as you create a healthy mindset and a system that serves you in focusing your time and energy on accomplishing your goals. Reflect and Celebrate List three things you are currently thankful for. 1. 2. 3. List three things you have accomplished that you are proud of. 1.2. 3.

She now sits in the Madison County, Idaho jail awaiting sentencing, all but certain to spend the rest of her life behind bars. The trial of the so-called “Doomsday Mom” is the wildly twisted story of a seemingly loving mother, a self-proclaimed devout member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints who clearly veered way off course ….

She moved to Boise, Idaho, to help write her book titled Children of Darkness & Light which is also the name of her YouTube channel. Her blog is called the Lori Vallow Story.

Alex MacCaw is the founder of Clearbit and Reflect, and his journey with each company has been wildly different. Clearbit took more of a “classic” startup approach—raising VC money, hiring hundreds of people, and working from an office in SF. In 2020, he charted a new course by replacing himself as CEO at Clearbit, selling all his possessions and living full-time on a sailboat in the Atlantic. And now he's building his new company Reflect in with a totally different approach —building a fully remote & asynchronous “lifestyle” company that decidedly eschews VC money and the other common hallmarks of a tech startup. Alex shares everything he's learned as a founder and why he believes building startups should not be one-size-fits-all. Blake and Alex talk through: (7:07) Pros/Cons of being asynchronous by design(09:01) Why Alex doesn't believe in remote work for large companies(10:11) Remote work pitfalls(14:21) When to replace yourself as CEO(15:52) How to find your zone of genius(18:31) When do startups hire a CFO or COO?(21:14) #1 piece of advice for founders(24:14) Things to know before you found a startup (B2B vs. B2C)(27:27) Why not raise venture capital(28:28) When startups should (or shouldn't) raise venture capital(29:40) How Reflect started crowdfunding(39:14) What AI and ChatGPT is good for(44:13) Best time to start a company(46:20) Not all startups need VC funding(47:16) Advice for VCs from a founder

Adam creates a hypnosis session that integrates a poem he created about birthdays to celebrate his birthday - a time of gratitude and reflection. The poem uses hypnotic language and a timeline to take you from your first birthday to your last enabling you to appreciate life at whatever stage of it you are. Here's the poem:  The Birthday Trance In the cradle of life's enchanting trance, A baby's spirit, a mystical dance. Embraced by love's hypnotic sway, Your soul alights on this magical day. As toddling feet tread life's mystic course, In the realm of dreams, let your spirit source. Unleash the power of your mind's delight, Awakening possibilities, taking flight. In childhood's realm, where wonders reside, Boundless imagination becomes your guide. Let your thoughts soar to celestial heights, And paint the canvas of your heart's delights. In adolescence's rhapsody, a symphony untold, Passion's melody, a story to unfold. Unlock the secrets of your inner fire, Ignite the embers of your heart's desire. Youthful days, a euphoric reverie, Love's intoxication sets your spirit free. Surrender to love's enchanting embrace, And find solace in its tender grace. In the tapestry of adulthood's embrace, Wisdom and dreams merge, leaving no trace. Tap into the depths of your soul's grandeur, Unleash your essence with utmost fervor. Maturity's embrace, a sacred dance, Radiating wisdom, your spirit's advance. Embrace the ebb and flow of life's tide, Leaving footprints of love far and wide. Now, as the candles flicker with grace, We gather to honor this final embrace. Reflect on the journey that brought you here, Embracing both joy and sorrow, without fear. On this last birthday, before life's sweet breath, Emotions intertwine, embracing both life and death. With hearts heavy, yet grateful for what's been, A legacy of love, a soul that's truly seen. Happy birthday, dear soul, so sublime, In this hypnotic trance, we find our rhyme. May you transcend the realms of time and space, Leaving a legacy of love and grace. As you embrace the beyond's ethereal shore, May your spirit soar and forever explore. Know that your essence shall forever reside, In the hearts and minds of those who confide. In this hypnotic journey, let your soul ascend, Embracing the infinite, where dreams transcend. Happy birthday, dear friend, in this dance of fate, Your spirit eternal, love will navigate.   DOWNLOADS: To thank you for being a listener to the show Adam is giving you 100% FREE hypnosis downloads worth up to £200/$250 using the coupon code FREE here: https://www.adamcox.co.uk/store/c15/FREE-Hypnosis  There is a 50% Discount on up to 10 other downloads using the coupon code hypnotist here: https://www.adamcox.co.uk/downloads.html  WORKING WITH ADAM DIRECTLY:  To book a free 30-minute consultation call to consider working with Adam go to: https://go.oncehub.com/AdamCox If you want to work with Adam on a one-to-one basis on hypnosis sessions, wealth coaching, or mentorship you can book sessions here: https://www.adamcox.co.uk/hypnotherapist.html  ABOUT ADAM Adam Cox is one of the world's most innovative hypnotists and is known for being the hypnotherapist of choice for Celebrities, CEO's and even Royalty.

Through an exploration of why we judge ourselves, others, and the world around us, this podcast dives deep into how our judgments can be both natural and harmful. As we uncover the real power behind our judgments, we must ask ourselves: are we really in control of our judgments, or do we hold the power to be in control of ourselves? I was counseling a client about their food habits and judgments when things suddenly took an unexpected turn. Uncovering a pattern that extended far beyond food and deep into our beliefs and behaviors, I set out on a journey of self-exploration and awareness to help others liberate themselves from the chains of judgment and find their true selves. What I found was both surprising and inspiring - a truth that changed the way I saw the world. If you're feeling frustrated and hopeless about not being able to accept yourself, embrace self-love, and be your true self despite all the self-criticism and negative body image that you battle with, then you are not alone! Have you ever heard that, in order to love yourself, you must eat whatever you desire, that comparing yourself to others will make your self-esteem rise, or that self-judgment will help you achieve your goals? As a woman who struggles with self-judgment and body image, you may have heard these myths, but I'm here to share the truth about overcoming judgment in eating habits and self-perception. The resources mentioned in this episode are: Reflect on your own judgments and ask yourself if they are true, who decided they were true, and if everyone in the world agrees with them. Start questioning your beliefs and judgments when you hear yourself saying should or shouldn't. Consider how societal norms and expectations have influenced your judgments and beliefs. Analyze your judgments about food, behavior, appearance, and other aspects of life. Practice being more aware of your judgments and the emotions they evoke in you. Give yourself permission to judge, but avoid acting on those judgments in a negative way. Work on reducing the strength of your judgments by becoming more aware of them and questioning their validity. Reevaluate your beliefs and judgments about what is appropriate or civilized behavior. Challenge societal expectations about gender roles, body image, and other aspects of life. Share your experiences and insights about judgment with others, either in conversations or by creating content such as podcasts or blog posts. The Nuances of Judgment In daily life, judgment is a natural occurrence involving categorizing situations or people as positive or negative. While it is impossible to completely avoid judgment, it is essential to understand the nuances of our judgments and how they feel internally. By becoming hyper-aware of these judgments, individuals can begin to question and analyze their thoughts, rather than automatically acting upon them. This awareness allows for introspection and growth as an individual navigate challenging situations. Elizabeth Sherman delves into this topic on her podcast, discussing the importance of confronting and analyzing the judgments we hold about ourselves and others. Through engaging in conversation with her clients and audience, Elizabeth encourages the recognition of these judgments and the importance of questioning their validity. Acknowledging that it's impossible not to judge, she emphasizes the impact that understanding our thoughts and their origins can have on improving self-perception and relationships with others. “When we think other people are judging us, we are actually judging ourselves because we don't actually know what other people are thinking about us.” - Elizabeth Sherman Get full show notes and more information here: https://elizabethsherman.com/podcast/122

On this week's episode, I emphasize the importance of taking time to reflect on our experiences. We have a better chance of learning from our experiences when we take the time to reflect on what we just saw, heard, said and felt. There are not only lessons to be learned but growth and even transformation to be had. Apply 4 simple questions to specific areas of life: friendships, relationships, jobs, career, health and life.   What's working for you? What would you like shifted? What would you like to see that is not happening? What would you like to see more of that is happening and you really love? Here's to manifesting that which helps us heal, flourish and thrive in body, mind and spirit. Start with taking time to reflect. Enjoy the podcast!

We often find ourselves disappointed when our expectations are not met, but have we set proper expectations in the first place? It's important to ensure that we have realistic expectations for the services we hire and the customers we serve.   One key to setting proper expectations is to communicate them upfront. This means being clear about what we can and cannot provide, as well as any limitations or conditions that may apply. By doing so, we can avoid misunderstandings and disappointment down the road.   We also need to be prepared to communicate any changes in expectations proactively and speak up whenever we feel that something is not aligning with our expectations. By doing so, we can address issues before they escalate and potentially damage the relationship.   By taking the time to assess past experiences, we can learn and grow, ensuring that our expectations are better aligned in the future.   What you'll hear in this episode:  [1:15] Your expectations may not be met by someone providing a service, but did you actually have proper expectations for the service you hired? [2:00] Ensure that you have proper expectations set for your business and customers. [4:27] Communicate expectations up front [6:30] Communicate any changes in expectations proactively, so both parties are aligned. [9:15] Communicate whenever you feel that something is not aligning with expectations [11:30] Reflect back on a previous interaction where your expecations were not met. Did you follow the guidance in this episode or would it have been possible to have improved the interaction with proper communication?   * Related episodes: The Most Undervalued Trait of an Accountant Growing Your Side Hustle with Nick Loper I Want to Upgrade My Services - Will My Clients Stay?   * Find everything you need at https://www.keepwhatyouearn.com * Questions about this episode?

This is the time for procurement leaders to reexamine their operating model in preparation for the next potential crisis.  In this episode, based on an AOP Live session, Art of Procurement's Philip Ideson and Kelly Barner are joined by Jake Taylor, Senior Director of Advisory at ProcureAbility.

On April 18, Fox News agreed to pay Dominion Voting Systems $787.5 million to settle a defamation lawsuit stemming from allegations of voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election. The historic settlement came just before the trial was set to begin in a case many saw as having significant First Amendment implications. In this exclusive conversation, attorneys for Fox and Dominion join First Amendment attorney Lee Levine to reflect on what led to the case, its outcome, and the arguments they would have made had the case gone to trial.  Tom Clare is a founding partner of Clare Locke LLP and was counsel to Dominion.

God humbled himself to the point of crucifixion for our sins. Humility is always God's way with us, are we living humbly in every area of our lives?

Jesus said to his disciples: “If the world hates you, realize that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, the world would love its own; but because you do not belong to the world, and I have chosen you out of the world, the world hates you.” John 15:18–19This is a sobering thought: “the world hates you.” That is, if you are among those who have been taken by our Lord out of the world. In that case, Jesus says that the world will hate you.No one wants to be hated. No one wants to experience the wrath, persecution, attacks, or ridicule of another. Hatred is ugly, painful and difficult to endure. But that is part of the nature of hate. It's not only a form of persecution, it's also a form of manipulation. Hate is an attack upon another by which the hater seeks to inflict injury and to manipulate them to change and conform to their will. The secular and unchristian “world” wants to win you over and away from God. Jesus offers this teaching, in part, to prepare us so that when we do experience hatred from the world, we will not be affected by it nor manipulated to turn from Him. Therefore, this teaching is a revelation of much mercy from our Lord.Remember that Jesus spoke of three enemies of our soul. The flesh, the devil and the world. In this Gospel passage, to “belong to the world” means that a person allows themself to be negatively influenced by the countless lies embedded within the world. The secular media, pop-culture, biased opinions, social pressures, false images of happiness and the like seek to constantly misguide us and draw us in. We are regularly tempted to believe that fulfillment is found in money, our physical appearance, the recognition of our accomplishments and much more. The world tells us that our opinions must conform to the secular values of the age—and if they don't, then we are judgmental, close-minded extremists and should be shunned and “canceled” or silenced.These worldly temptations and pressures are real, and, for that reason, Jesus' words are freeing. They free us from the manipulations and deceptions we will experience when we live our faith openly for all to see. When we do so, we will be hated by the world. But knowing that provides peace of heart when it happens. Reflect, today, upon these powerful and consoling words of Jesus. If you do not experience any form of hatred from the world, then this should be a concern and the cause for reflection. And if you do experience some form of hatred, know that our Lord prepared you for this and offers you His strength and courage to endure it with joy. In the end, all that matters is what our Lord thinks—and nothing else. In the end, if you experience hatred by the world in any form, know that this makes you more like Christ Himself. My persecuted Lord, You endured the hatred and ridicule of many who were engulfed by the false values of the world. I pray that I may share not only in Your life of love and mercy but also in Your strength during the times that I also endure the world's hatred. I commit myself to You and pray that You continually take me out of the world and bring me close to Yourself. Jesus, I trust in You.

Welcome back! We have a great episode for you all today... If you're struggling with trusting the Lord's plan this episode is for you! Also, make sure to check out Katie and Jake's youtube series @ChattingWithTheChurches SHOW NOTES/REFERENCES: Trusting God in the ups & downs In what areas do we still struggle to trust God? Anxiety & worry —> indicates a lack of trust in God or fear of loss/change. What is the root cause of our fear or worry? Gotquestions.org: The main reason we should trust God is that He is worthy of our trust. Unlike men, He never lies and never fails to fulfill His promises. “God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?” (Numbers 23:19; Psalm 89:34). We can learn to trust God as we see him working in our lives & the lives of others around us. When has God been faithful in our lives previously? Why do we doubt him moving forward? Gotquestions.org: Should we trust in ourselves or in others who are sinful, unpredictable, unreliable, have limited wisdom, and frequently make bad choices and decisions swayed by emotion? Or do we trust in the all-wise, all-knowing, all-powerful, gracious, merciful, loving God who has good intentions for us? The choice should be obvious, but we fail to trust God because we don't know Him. As already stated, we cannot hope to trust in someone who is essentially a stranger to us, but that is easily remedied. God has not made Himself difficult to find or know. All we need to know about God, He has graciously made available to us in the Bible, His holy Word to His people. To know God is to trust Him. Reflect on his sovereignty Verses: “All the peoples of the earth are regarded as nothing. He does as he pleases with the powers of heaven and the peoples of the earth. No one can hold back his hand or say to him: ‘What have you done?'” Daniel 4:35 “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” Proverbs 3:5 “For this is the will of God, by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people. Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but as servants of God. 1 Peter 2:15–16 “All things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose” Romans 8:28 Pod Notes: Lex  “Abraham never wavered in believing God's promise. In fact, his faith grew stronger, and in this, he brought glory to God. He was fully convinced that God is able to do whatever he promises.” Romans 4:20-21 NLT  In what areas of my life do I trust God the least?  Do I truly believe the Lord is all I need? Do I believe He will provide everything I need?  There are a ton of references in the Bible about not worrying or being fearful. Why?  Because God knows our tendency as humans is to doubt.  We have to remember that God knows the future, He holds it in his hands.  “But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.” – James 1:6 God knows the desires of our hearts. But we must be reminded that He knows what's best for us.  Faith & trust go hand in hand. “Our trust is not foolish, for our God is both faithful and good.” -Grand Canyon Univ Blog  “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight” – Proverbs 3:5-6 --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thefreedompodcast/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thefreedompodcast/support

People speak from what they've seen in their life or what they've accepted as true. Being open-minded can be useful, but there are times when people share things that are true in their experience and not yours. This episode talks about why your best advocate is YOU. I recently went through a medical situation where I needed to self-advocate. It reminded me of the importance of advocating for yourself and how speaking up can shift the outcome. We don't have to take what the world hands to us. Honestly, we can choose what aligns to us over and over as we make a new path forward. I'm here to spend quality solo time with you for EP137's Wise Walk as we discover our True Stride. Self-advocacy often starts from seeking to understand yourself. One of the best things about understanding yourself is that you build a storehouse of answers so you can design the best course of action for yourself. On our Wise Walk, I talk about why you are your best advocate. Even when you evolve and change your mind, your conscious intention to choose differently is self-advocacy. Come with me as we reflect on these Wise Walk questions: Do you know yourself better than anyone? Do you take time to self-reflect and listen to your own heartbeat? Do you pursue your intuition with curiosity? If you recognize that you're constantly evolving, do you give yourself permission to choose again? Do you seek to understand yourself on a deeper level? As you identify your truths, are you communicating them to advocate for yourself? It's important to learn about yourself and practice making conscious decisions so it's easier to stay in alignment from moment to moment. As it becomes more natural, you'll find it easier to communicate your truth. Remember to stay true to yourself as you navigate the path towards your goals, your dreams, and your aligned life. Reflect on your truth with these Wise Walk questions: Are you taking time to self-reflect when something feels off? When you notice unalignment, do you take time to research what would be in better alignment with you? Join this inspiring community to uncover a new sense of freedom, and be sure to follow and review the True Stride podcast as we continue to exchange our light and Heart Value with each other.   In this episode: [00:23] - Welcome to the show! [01:26] - Do you seek to understand yourself on a deeper level? [03:27] - The more we practice the better we get. [05:30] - “I am the best advocate for myself.” [07:52] - Better late than never.

“You are my friends if you do what I command you. I no longer call you slaves, because a slave does not know what his master is doing. I have called you friends, because I have told you everything I have heard from my Father.” John 15:14–15To some, Jesus' definition of friendship may, at first glance, seem odd. He says that we are His friends only when we do what He commands us to do. Imagine saying that to one of your best friends. Such a statement would most likely be met with a laugh and dismissal as foolishness. So is true friendship always based on obedience?Obviously, the expectation that your friends obey you so as to win your friendship is not the basis of any authentic friendship. Jesus is the only one Who can base your friendship upon obedience to His holy will. Why? Because of the nature of what He commands you to do.Jesus is pure Truth. What He wills is the perfection of love. Therefore, His statement that you are only His friend if you do what He commands you to do teaches that friendship is based on the truth. It's based on love, goodness, kindness, selfless sacrifice and self-giving. And it is all of these truths that Jesus commands us to do. Therefore, Jesus is essentially telling us that His will alone provides the pathway to the friendship we desire to have with Him.In regard to your friendship with others, each true friendship can only be based on that which God wills for friends. And, in that sense, you can “command” the will of God for your friendships. This means you are only willing to establish a friendship upon the truth. It means you are only willing to share a relationship based upon selfless, sacrificial, self-giving mercy, compassion, honesty and love. Reflect, today, upon your understanding of friendship. Begin with your friendship with God, but then also ponder your friendship with others. Do you love our Lord in the way that He commands? And as you ponder your friendship with others, examine whether or not each friendship also conforms to obedience to the will of God. If you can love God and others in conformity with the dictates of true love, then your friendships will produce an eternity of deep fulfillment.My divine Lord, You call me to a friendship with You based only on the dictates of pure and holy love. I thank You for this command of love and accept this invitation. Help me, Lord, to continually deepen my friendship with You in accord with the truths of love and help me to base all my friendships only on the commands of this holy love. Jesus, I trust in You.

“If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and remain in his love.” John 15:10When Jesus spoke the line above, He followed it by saying, “I have told you this so that my joy might be in you and your joy might be complete.” These two lines, taken side by side, provide a helpful unity of Jesus' teaching regarding holy obedience to Him. First, Jesus speaks of the necessity of keeping His commandments. To some, such a statement, when taken by itself, can seem burdensome, dictatorial, oppressive and confining. But is it? The answer is found clearly as we read on.The next thing Jesus teaches is that the effect of keeping His commandments is that we “remain in His love.” He further explains that He is not asking us to do anything that He Himself was not willing to do. He was obedient to the will of the Father, keeping the commandments of the Father to perfection. Therefore, we should hear His command as a dictate flowing from His own freely lived choice to be obedient. As the Incarnate Son of God, He perfectly obeyed the Father in His human nature. The result was that He remained perfectly filled with the love of the Father. But that's not all. Joy is also experienced in a “complete” way when we imitate Jesus' perfect obedience.In light of the teaching from our Lord, how do you view holy obedience to the will of God? Take, for example, each of the Ten Commandments. Do you struggle with unwavering obedience to them? Do you experience them as oppressive and imposed limitations rather than what they truly are? When understood correctly, the Ten Commandments, and every other dictate of the will of God, are exactly what we need and, even more so, exactly what we deeply desire in life. We want interior order rather than chaos. We want integrity rather than fragility. We want joy rather than sadness. And we want unity with the love of God rather than the loss of God. The path to the life we so deeply desire is obedience to the commands of the will of God in all things. Reflect, today, upon your immediate interior reaction to holy obedience. If you do find yourself resistant in any way to this teaching of Jesus, then that is a good sign that you need this teaching more than you may know. Try to look at obedience in the light of truth. Try to see that, deep down, your soul yearns for obedience and the interior order it brings. Examine, especially, any areas of obedience you struggle with and firmly recommit yourself to unwavering obedience to each and every command of our Lord. My obedient Lord, You obeyed the will of Your Father in Heaven to perfection. Through this obedience, You not only experienced the full love and joy of the Father in Your human nature, You also set for us a perfect example and model for holiness. Help me to see the areas of my life in which I need to be more obedient, so that I, too, will share in Your holy life and that of the Father's. Jesus, I trust in You.

“It takes a long time to become young.” — Pablo PicassoDo you ever feel depleted and tired, like you never make time for yourself? If so, you don't need to wait for your birthday month to take some time for yourself. However, as a giver, sometimes having a specific reason to ask for help can make it easier. On this episode of the PlanSimple Podcast, I take you behind the scenes of my birthday month, and give lots of ideas for how you can uplevel your mindset and self-care any time of the year.Here are the top 3 things I consider as I head into my birthday month. (You can hear EXACTLY how I'm answering these questions by listening to the episode.)Reflect on what has beenThe first step to celebrating my birthday month is to find some quiet time to be with a journal, a piece of paper, and a pen. I get centered and grounded and reflect on what has happened over the past year. I look at both the celebrations and amazing things that have happened and are happening, and I also consider what I'm ready to let go of. Consider who I am becomingThe next step is to consider who I am becoming. I get grounded by taking a walk around the block or doing a 10-minute meditation, and then I ask myself, “who am I five years from now?” I love thiis question because it frees me up from feeling like things have to happen tomorrow. Note: If five years doesn't do it for you, try breaking it down into smaller chunks of time. Consider what you want to achieve in the next 90 days, six months, or one year. What kind of person do you want to be in those shorter periods? Or what would be your deepest desires without your current constraints of money, health, relationships?Plan my monthNow that I've reflected on what has been and considered who I'm becoming, I plan my birthday month. I consider the activities and experiences that will make me happy and fulfilled in the exact season that I am in. I make a list of those things and then schedule them throughout the month.Don't forget to include self-care activities in your plan. This could include things like a massage, meditation, or simply taking a long bath. Whatever makes you feel relaxed and recharged should be included in your plan.In conclusion…Your birthday month is a great time to reflect on what has been, consider who you are becoming, and plan to become her. But remember, you don't need to wait for your birthday month to take some time for yourself. Any time of the year is a good time to prioritize self-care and uplevel your mindset.

“I am the vine, you are the branches. Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit, because without me you can do nothing.” John 15:5The first amazing thing to recognize in this passage is the simple fact that God wants to produce good fruit in your life. He also wants to bring His grace and mercy into the world through you. The vine does not produce the fruit alone but does so through the instrumentality of the branches. So if we take this teaching at face value, God is saying that He has chosen to bring His grace and mercy into your life and into the world through you.To add greater clarity to this holy mission that we have all been given, Jesus makes a very profound statement. He says “without me you can do nothing.” When considering this line spoken by our Lord, it may be useful to reflect upon what the word “nothing” means. Saint Augustine points out that Jesus added “you can do nothing” to emphasize the fact that, by ourselves, by our own effort, we cannot even produce a “little” good fruit. For example, it would be like cutting off a twig from an apple tree and hoping that the twig will produce an apple.The fruit that God wants to produce also takes place within your soul, in the form of the Fruits of the Holy Spirit. These fruits consist of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control (See Galatians 5:22–23). Each one of these gifts from God will have the effect of transforming you more fully into an image of God Himself in our world. Try to take a moment to consider each one of those Fruits of the Holy Spirit. Each one is very desirable. Growing in a desire for them will help you grow in a desire for the Holy Spirit in your life.When the Gospel passage quoted above is considered in its two parts, it is also clear that if we separate ourselves from God, then it is impossible to experience any one of the Fruits of the Holy Spirit. Without a firm connection to our God, we will have no love, no joy, no patience, kindness, etc. None of that is possible unless our lives are firmly connected to the Vine, Who is Christ Himself. So fostering a positive desire for these good fruits, as well as a holy fear of losing them, is useful. Reflect, today, upon the beautiful and meaningful image given to us by Jesus of the vine and the branches. Think of a vine and then think of yourself firmly attached to that vine. Sit with that image prayerfully and let God speak to you. He wants to do great things in you and through you. If you will only cling to Him with all your heart, an abundance of good fruit will be produced. Jesus the Vine, You are the source of all goodness, and, without You, I can do nothing. Help me to always remember how deeply I need You in my life and help me to cling to You always. Please bring forth an abundance of good fruit in my life and, through me, into the world. Jesus, I trust in You. Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2023 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved. Used with permission via RSS feed.

Hey hey!!! I am so excited to dive more into this topic. Core values are so fundamental, and so many times, we take for granted that we not only have them but we implement them. We think our lives portray them without our effort. And sometimes it does... BUT most of the time, we cannot determine someone's values by the way they spend their day. Not because they don't have values but because they do not intentionally choose things that represent them!  Well, no more my friend!

It's been more than a year since Russia invaded Ukraine. Shortly after the invasion, we spoke with Tatiana Terdal, a board member of the Ukrainian-American Cultural Association of Oregon and Southwest Washington. We'll check in with her about how the local community has been affected over the last year. We'll also hear from Erik Heinonen, an Oregonian aid worker who recently returned to his home in Ukraine after fleeing to Romania last year with his family.

What are you willing to lose to know God better? Pastor Jeff asks us if we are willing to forego things of this world to follow the savior.

Jesus said to his disciples: “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give it to you.” John 14:27So how does the peace that Jesus gives you differ from the apparent peace that the world gives? We all want peace in life. The desire for interior peace is written upon our very nature. And though many people make choices that lead to interior disorder and even chaos, those choices are often made out of a confused sense of what actually provides fulfillment.For example, those who choose to feed an addiction to drugs or alcohol often began that addiction out of a misguided desire for happiness. The temporary fix experienced gives the temporary sense of well-being. But objectively speaking, it is very clear that the temporary “peace” one receives from these actions leads ultimately to a loss of the very thing they desire. And when these choices become addictions, the person often finds themself trapped in a downward spiral.There are also countless other ways in which people find themselves seeking satisfaction and fulfillment in life. Money, promiscuity, cheating, selfishness, anger, deception, and the like are all actions that are done with the intent of some satisfaction. Our daily goal must be to unmask those deceptive actions so that we can see them for what they are and for the fruit that they produce. These are clearly among the many ways that the “world” offers us peace.When it comes to true happiness in life, the gift of true interior peace is one of the clearest signs that we are on the right track and are making the right decisions. When we choose the will of God each and every day, those choices may be difficult and require much initial sacrifice. Love can be hard. Faithfulness to the moral law of God can be challenging. And refusing to sin is difficult. But choosing the will of God throughout our day, every day, will begin to produce within us the consoling and sustaining gift of the peace of Christ. True peace produces strength. It leads to interior integrity and wholeness. It produces clarity of thought and certitude in convictions. God's peace leads to more peace. It leads to choices based on well-thought-out actions of love. Peace leads us to the will of God, and the will of God leads to peace. The cyclical effect is exponential and is one of the clearest guides to happiness in life.Reflect, today, upon whether you truly have peace in your heart. Do you recognize the still, strong and sustaining presence of God within your soul? Do your daily choices produce greater integrity of heart and clarity of mind? Do you find that you have joy and calm, even in the midst of life's greatest challenges? Seek out this peace, for if you do, you will be seeking out the good God Who produces this glorious gift within your heart. My Lord of true peace, You and Your holy will are the only path to the deepest fulfillment of all of my desires in life. When I make poor choices that lead to disorder and confusion, help me to turn to You with all my heart. Please unmask any deception I struggle with and give me the strength I need to seek You and Your peace alone. Jesus, I trust in You.Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2023 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved. Used with permission via RSS feed.

“I have told you this while I am with you. The Advocate, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in my name—he will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you.” John 14:25–26Sometimes we forget all that God has spoken to us. For example, we may have some clear experience of God's presence in our lives, such as a powerful spiritual insight gained through prayer, a deep conviction of His voice spoken through a sermon, the transforming freedom encountered through the Sacrament of Reconciliation, or some form of unmistakable clarity imparted through the reading of the holy Scriptures. When God speaks to us, imparting His Truth, strength, forgiveness and every other form of grace, we are spiritually consoled as we sense His closeness. But when trouble comes our way, those moments of clarity can be easily lost.The disciples would have had many clarifying experiences during the three years of Jesus' public ministry. They marveled at the spiritual authority they encountered in His sermons, witnessed countless miracles, looked on as sinners were set free, saw Jesus transfigured in glory, and watched our Lord enter deeply into prayer with the Father. Each time they encountered the power of God at work, they would have grown in their conviction that Jesus was the Messiah, the Son of God, the Savior of the World. But Jesus also knew that these disciples would soon have their faith in Him shaken. He knew that as they looked on from a distance in fear as Jesus was arrested, beaten and killed, they would start to forget all that they previously experienced. Fear can cause confusion, and Jesus knew that His disciples would soon fall into that trap. For this reason, Jesus spoke the words above to His disciples. He promised them that the Holy Spirit would soon come upon them to teach them everything and to remind them all that He told them.How nice it would be if every lesson we ever learned from God remained front and center in our lives. How nice it would be if we never allowed fear to confuse us and cause us to forget all that God has spoken to us in varied ways. Just as Jesus knew the disciples would need the help of the Holy Spirit to remember, He also knows that we need the same help from the Holy Spirit. Therefore, the words spoken to the disciples above are also spoken to us. “The Advocate, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in my name—he will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you.”What lessons of faith have you learned in the past that you need to be reminded of? It is the role of the Holy Spirit to bring those lessons to mind every time we need them. Therefore, as we move closer to the glorious celebration of the Solemnity of Pentecost, it is a good time to pray to the Holy Spirit and ask for the gift of remembering the many ways that God has revealed Himself to us. The Father, Son and Holy Spirit work in perfect harmony with each other, but each has a distinct role in our lives. The Holy Spirit's role is especially to lead us day-by-day into the fulfillment of the Father's will of becoming perfectly conformed to the Person of Christ Jesus.Reflect, today, upon this powerful promise that our Lord gave to His disciples and to us. Pray to the Holy Spirit. Open yourself to the Spirit's ongoing direction in your life and never allow fear to lead to confusion. Instead, allow God to dispel all confusion and to remind you of all that He has spoken to you throughout your life.Most glorious Lord Jesus, You promised the disciples and all Your people that the Holy Spirit would be sent to us to remind us of all that You have revealed. Holy Spirit, please continuously descend upon me, teach me and guide me. Help me to never forget the many lessons I have been taught so that I will never let fear lead to confusion. Jesus, I trust in You.Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2023 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved. Used with permission via RSS feed.
