Philippines 4:8 Tells us to think on what’s true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent and worthy of praise. How often do we actually think on these things?

The life of an expat is one to be coveted. Expats are viewed as brave. They uproot themselves from their comfort zone in their home country to go and have new experiences in a foreign and faraway land. It’s the life uploaded on social media with many hashtags that celebrate this free-spirited lifestyle; one to be admired by our peers as they flip through our Facebook and instagram accounts. It’s the perfect life including new friends, new adventures, new scenic and breathtaking views that read like the pages of the lonely planet guide books. Yes indeed, it is a great life. Or is it?

God’s dream is to free us from the things we feel imprisoned by. He wants us to feel comforted, confident, happy and whole. In this episode we ask the question: Do you and God have a common dream? Or do you ignore or doubt the purpose God has for your life?

3 Steps to put your personal narrative on a positive footing in 2021. 1. Assess who you are. The first step in rewriting your story is to assess who you are, how you have been feeling and behaving, and what circumstances have impacted your life. 2. Identify what changes you want to make, and create a plan of action. 3. Continue to revise as you go along.  Finally I pray your journey to self reflection this year brings healing to your soul, balance in your life and projects joy and happiness in your future.

Everyone knows that words have power. Words have the power to evoke positive emotions or negative emotions. Intentional communication means you change the way you perceive your circumstance and you use words that uplift you and encourage you instead bringing you down. Negative communication is any dialogue you have with yourself that may be limiting your ability to believe in yourself and your own abilities to reach your highest potential. Any thought that diminishes your ability to make positive changes in your life or to build up your confidence. When you decide to have intentional communication you'll see a shift in your personality and your level of confidence is sure to increase.

Hopelessness often comes at the point in your life when you feel you have hit rock bottom. However I always like to think that God will often let us hit rock bottom so that we will discover that He is the Rock at the bottom.
