    Podcast #348 
    WHAT GOD REALLY THINKS ABOUT YOU AND HOW TO ANSWER "DOES GOD LOVE ME?" [FAITH EPISODE]
    We are wired as humans to wonder "does God love me?" The way we answer this question is the most important thing about us.

    THOUGHT OF THE WEEK:

    * AW Tozer quote
    * Whispers of intimacy - to pull us closer, not to make God distant and uncaring
    * Delight - He doesn't just love us, He delights in us.


    * W. Tozer:

    What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.

    The history of mankind will probably show that no people has ever risen above its religion, and man’s spiritual history will positively demonstrate that no religion has ever been greater than its idea of God. Worship is pure or base as the worshiper entertains high or low thoughts of God.

    For this reason the gravest question before the Church is always God Himself, and the most portentous fact about any man is not what he at a given time may say or do, but what he in his deep heart conceives God to be like.

    We tend by a secret law of the soul to move toward our mental image of God. This is true not only of the individual Christian, but of the company of Christians that composes the Church. Always the most revealing thing about the Church is her idea of God.

    -A.W. Tozer, The Knowledge of the Holy (New York: HarperCollins, 1978), 1.

    VERSE OF THE WEEK:
    He led me to a place of safety; he rescued me because He delights in me. (Psalm 18:19)

    He led me to a place of safety; he rescued me because He delights in me. (2 Samuel 22:20)


    PRAYER OF THE WEEK:
    Lord, thank You for choosing to create us, and for the love You have for us. It is love we can't fully understand, but Lord, we ask for You to expand our minds and hearts this week to understand it even more than we ever have before.  Open the depth of our emotions and in what we see around us to experience Your presence in ways we have never previously considered before.

    Forgive us for any time in the past when we have doubted Your presence. We confess that we struggle and we have turned to our own strength rather than that of what You have extended to us, with Your hand and arms always out. Thank you for whispering to us, and that your whispers are even more profound proof that you want us to draw near to you and that You love us.  We thank you that, as you tell us in James 4:8 that when we draw near to you, that you will draw near to us. You are faithful and good, Lord.

    Though it has been a journey to answer, we thank you for wiring us with the yearning for your love.

    REVIEW OF THE WEEK:
    Hey Trish, here's the love - 5 stars.

    I was going through some crazy. I was jealous in ways that I did not understand and I really just wasn't feeling like me anymore. I found your beautiful face and podcast in searching for ways to build my confidence because I believe a lot of jealousy stems from insecurity.  I love love love your strong amazing effort towards helping all of us strangers in being better to ourselves! You have helped me climb out of the box that is my head and now I only feel like I only have one-foot int it! I think you deserve to know that you are inspirational and what you do really does matter! Thank you, thank you! I could tell a difference in how I feel on the days I do not listen and I always return. I recommend you in shameless ways to everyone I know! Much love to that lovely southern snowboarding lass!


    WHAT ARE HABITS AND WHAT DO THEY DO FOR YOU?
    Habits are rituals and behaviors that we perform automatically, allowing us to carry out essential activities such as brushing our teeth, taking a shower, getting dressed for work, and following the same routes every day without thinking about them.

    http://www.thepositivepsychologypeople.com/habits-to-happiness/

    They automate our lives and give us the ability to use our willpower and focus on things that we want and need.

    People who learn how to master consistent, high-level habits are people who are able to change the world, live beautifully and feel the flow of life.
    HABITS ARE PLANNED
    Repetition of the same thought or physical action develops into a habit, which, repeated frequently enough, becomes an automatic reflex. -Norman Vincent Peale

    The law of harvest is to reap more than you sow. Sow an habit, you reap a habit. Sow a habit and you reap a character. Sow a character and you reap a destiny. -James Allen

    Procrastination is a habit, and action is a habit. Which will you choose?

    Procrastination is like a credit card, it is a lot of fun until you get the bill.

    -Christopher Parker

    Not about will power

    Not about discipline

    Not a reflection of how hard you can work

    More of a reflection on how strategically you can think

    Also a reflection of how kind you are to yourself

    THOUGHT OF THE WEEK:
    We are bombarded by reasons to worry.

    How do we actually not live with the weight of worry?
    VERSE OF THE WEEK:
    Matthew 6:25-27  “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?  Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?” (NIV)

    "That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life - whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn't life more than food, and your body more than clothing? Look at the birds. They don't plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren't you far more valuable to him than they are? Can all your worries add a single moment to your life? (NLT)


    PRAYER OF THE WEEK:
    Lord, what a gift that You give us in Jesus, whose burden is light and yoke is easy. We confess that ours doesn't feel that way and we thank You for being our hope. Forgive us for letting worry steal from our lives and from our faith and trust in You. We let it go. We give it to you. Thank you for taking our worries, our anxieties, our fears ... all that is unknown in our hearts and granting us permission to walk in peace.

    It is hard, Lord, to let go. Please hold our hands tightly, that we might be reminded throughout the day today of Your presence, Your power and Your plan for our lives. Because we trust in You we walk in safety, in the refuge, and in peace.

    The world will continue to challenge us, distract us and pull us from You. We pray that You keep our hearts humble and our eyes fixed on You, that we might remember we are not responsible for the things bigger than us, the things out of our control, the things that are higher than our human thoughts. Our hearts hurt with the unknown, the fears and the burden, but Lord, we praise You for You are our healer, our salvation, our hope, and our strength.  We know that you are a good God and a good, good Father and that you work all things together for those who love You.  Give us faith to trust what You say and to turn our cares over to you each day, each hour and each minute. We thank You for the gift it is to walk with peace alongside still waters and green pastures with You by our side, no matter what is going on in our lives.

    Thank you Lord, in Jesus' Name, Amen

    REVIEW OF THE WEEK: 
    Maria Bradley

    It's about time I just take a moment and say THANK YOU and just write a dang review! I am so grateful I found your podcast. After listening for a while I finally became a member of the College of Confidence. I love having your happy voice at the touch of a button. It's like having a little bit of sunshine in my pocket. Things I love about this podcast: positive - encouraging - inspiring - life-changing. Seriously, thank you!!


    WHY WE THINK BEATING OURSELVES UP IS EFFECTIVE 
    Perfectionistic mindset - one of the toxic side-effects of believing our worth is based off our performance. "Why Perfectionism Prevents You from Being Confident" > listen to the episode at www.trishblackwell.com/335

    We measure the wrong things.

    Measurement by looking outward instead of looking inward.

    It's a lack of belief and self-trust ... that we doubt our ability to show up, to follow-through and that our efforts can be multiplied.
    WHY SELF-CRITICISM DOESN'T WORK (AND WHAT IT'S REALLY DOING TO YOU) 
    The more pressure we put on ourselves, the more poorly we typically do.

    The art of freedom is to live without being restrained ... and pressure restrains us.

    Personal example: Pressing myself and shaming myself to stop overeating and binge eating. The self-hatred I had about changing my body was the mean push I thought I needed to actually change. The harder I pushed, the meaner I was, the worse I felt and the more I swang in the pendulum.
    HOW TO STOP BEATING YOURSELF UP AND HOW TO USE THE STRATEGY OF BEING NICE TO YOURSELF AS A WAY TO ACTIVATE CHANGE

    *
    Be radical - dare to try something different.


    -Admit that what you're doing isn't working.

    *
    Look for modules to emulate


    -Be inspired, study their example

    *
    Desire congruency


    -You're not actually a nice person if you're not first nice to yourself

    *
    Get comfortable with being uncomfortable


    -It's going to feel weird, and like you're doing something wrong; like it shouldn't have been this easy and this obvious

    PRAYER OF THE WEEK:
    Lord, we praise You for the gift of life right now. Thank you for the years you have added to our lives, for each day, for each moment, for each memory with another human being.  There is so much unknown in this world - so many things that exceed our comprehension or understanding. Thank you for being bigger than it all. Thank you for holding us in Your powerful hands.

    We have peace in our hearts because we are confident that you will work out your plans for our life. Thank you for reminding us of the fragility of life. And for the countless times your angels have protected us, surrounded us and wrapped us in safety.  Give us eyes to live with a deeper gratitude and appreciation for the love you have for us and the ways you protect us. We will not live in fear or worry and we thank you for the hope you give us in your presence.

    Teach us how to live with joy beyond explanation and to have a heart overflowing with abundance for life and each precious gift You shower on us.

    REVIEW OF THE WEEK: 
    Maria Kench - Absolutely Amazing!

    I have been listening to your podcasts for a few weeks now. Trish you are just absolutely amazing! I'm a mom with three kids and a hausband who works the midnight shift. So being able to juggle being a working mom, three kids and managing my household can be challenging.

Thank you for giving me that boost in the right direction to becoming more confident.


    HOW TO START THINKING BIGGER 
    (AND WHY TO DO IT) 
    Some quotes to get you inspired to think bigger: 
    “Believe it can be done. When you believe something can be done, really believe, your mind will find the ways to do it. Believing a solution paves the way to solution.”

    “Action cures fear.”
    ― David J. Schwartz,

    “Look at things not as they are, but as they can be. Visualization adds value to everything. A big thinker always visualizes what can be done in the future. He isn't stuck with the present”
    ― David J. Schwartz,

    “Look at things as they can be, not as they are.”
    ― David J. Schwartz,

    “The point is this: Big thinkers are specialists in creating positive, forward-looking, optimistic pictures in their own minds and in the minds of others. To think big, we must use words and phrases that produce big, positive mental images.”
    ― David J. Schwartz, The Magic of Thinking Big

    * Starting to think bigger comes from deciding to. 
    * Dare to live as thing can be - with faith and optimism 
    * Decide that you want to be a person of significance, not simply success.

    Significance comes from thinking bigger than oneself.

    THOUGHT OF THE WEEK:
    We shrink from life and make ourselves small because we don't realize that God delights in us. He sings songs of love around us. He does miracles in our lives. And if we were able to see or understand just how loved we really are, then we would be filled with joy, confidence, and hope in all that we do.

    VERSE OF THE WEEK: 
    Zephaniah 3:17

    New International Version
    The LORD your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.

    New Living Translation
    For the LORD your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior. He will take delight in you with gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.


    PRAYER OF THE WEEK:
    Lord, make the scales from our eyes fall. We are blind to how you really see us - as your beautiful, perfectly crafted works of art and creativity. More than just objects of your creation, you love us so much that you want to be in a relationship with us. And not just a friendship, sonship, a daughter-ship, a family relationship with inheritance, unending love and power and protection.

    We confess our obsession with ourselves and the pride that trips us up over how we look and how we want others to see us. We know Lord that the only thing that matters is how You see us. And that you see us as perfect, through the blood of Jesus Christ. Our bodies are still under the weight and pressure of the world, and we fall prey to the pressure Father. Sometimes, we confess, we feel dead in ourselves - overwhelmed from the weight of not-enoughness and of comparison of ourselves to others. You Lord, are still in the business of raising bodies from the dead. Raise ours. Raise our spirit above the pressures of this world and far from the pressure of perfectionism that burdens us and holds us back from the calling and purpose you have intended for us.

    Thank you for giving us new eyes, for filling us with hope and strength and for being our strength that we might never be weary as we run the race of our life. May we learn to walk from this day forth with powerful confidence because of a deeper understanding of your love for us and who we are in you. We thank you for this wisdom and freedom, and for the love that makes us absolutely beautiful, capable, powerful and enough, right now, today.
