On this episode I share 9 specific ways we must connect with God to grow in our spiritual journey and to build great relationship and connection to the God of all the universe. The task may seem impossible, but without faith it is impossible to please him so we must have faith. Hopefully as you listen to this podcast you can see the simplicity, complexity, and beauty of what God wants to do in our hearts, minds, and lives as we trust him. To stay connected we must first be connected, so today it is my hope that you get connected and rooted in God so that you can start your beautiful journey. If you are already in God I pray that this episode is a confirmation to you and a push for you to share this clarity with others. God bless.

Protect your relationships and do what you need to do to ensure your spiritual, mental, and social health. Learning to hide, block, unfollow, and unfriend are serious skills in this social media age. You can cultivate and curate an awesome social media experience when you are willing to take the steps necessary. Our Viewing habits—whether it’s television, social media, streaming services, or online content—can have a profound impact on your mental peace. Here’s how unhealthy viewing habits can assault your mind and spirit:

Confession in any arena is usually not easy, it’s the point that we have to own up to something that we have done wrong.  In certain circumstances, we are usually afraid of what can happen in the future “If” we confess the wrongs that we have done.  In connection to the confession we usually carry guilt, shame, and condemnation inside.  WE no longer want to hide the truth from the one we are spending our lives with, but we are afraid of what it could mean for the relationship if we open new wounds that we cause.  

We may have a need for confession, but we must remember, "There is no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus," though sometimes in life because of our choices we find ourselves feeling condemned deep within. Though we shouldn't be proud of our mistakes, we also can't stay in the mud if we have fallen. We make mistakes and give into temptation and then we have to deal with the consequences of our sin. This is never a good thing. When we recognize the need for forgiveness and confession we begin the process of healing if we are wise. That healing comes from God and by responding to the word which commands us to confess our faults one to another.

Argument: Confession can ultimately bring healing, even when we are faced with the worst outcomes from our confessions.  The healing of the soul is the most important.  

Should I Confess if I Have Hurt The One I Love? 

When you are living with condemnation, convictions, and shame you destroy the peace you could have in Jesus.  

Get right, right now.

Confession is important, but when is the right time to confess. Are there certain things that we shouldn't confess? Who should we confess to? In certain circumstances, we are usually afraid of what can happen in the future “If” we confess the wrongs that we have done.  In connection to the confession we usually carry guilt, shame, and condemnation inside.  WE no longer want to hide the truth from the one we are spending our lives with, but we are afraid of what it could mean for the relationship if we open new wounds that we cause.

I more than tripled my income by intentionally and strategically calculating risk and reward.  The most important factors to me are the favor of God, building relationships intentionally, preparing for risk, not giving up, and ultimately breaking free from the position and mentality that keeps us stuck at our current income levels.

 This is the final installment of this series. Too often we are not willing to take the risk necessary or invest the time into building skills that will grow our income.  Growing our income in some ways is like growing a plant, we must till the soil of our lives, plant seeds, and prepare for the harvest in due season.  We don’t always know what the harvest will look like, but there will be a harvest.  Some plants grow faster than others and yield the growth we hope for, the same goes for growing our finances.

Our mission is to help answer life’s questions that bring us pause, are difficult to solve, and keep us in wonderous awe.  We strive to be a motivational supplement to everyday mental and spiritual health.  Simply put, We are answering the great and small questions of life, plus those varied in between.”

How do we as believers properly consider growing our income? Are we wrong for wanting to make more money for our families? How do I build the skills to develop my income and learn to fish in my field to increase my finances to take care of the ones I love? In this episode, I give some specific ways for you to properly live life, grow your income, and please God all while doing it. This is no get-rich-quick scheme, just the mentality of doing what it takes to be the best you can be for your family. I pray this guide is helpful with your mentality and planning out the future with open hands and hearts to what God seeks to do in our lives.

(Part 2) How can we love others if we don’t love who God has created us to be? God commands us to love our neighbors as ourselves, this is difficult if we don’t have a love for the way God has created us to be. So, what does it mean Biblically to love yourself?

Biblically, "loving yourself" means recognizing your inherent worth as created in God's image (Imago Dei), accepting your flaws while striving to be better, and taking care of your physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being, all with the understanding that true self-love is rooted in God's love for you, allowing you to then better love others as well; 

it is not about self-centeredness or narcissism but rather a foundation for serving others with a healthy perspective on your own value.

Argument:

If we don’t value “who or how” God has uniquely created us to be we will struggle to love and value others. We will project our lack of value off on other people possibly without knowing it. To love you first is to commit to accepting who God has made you to be, flaws and all, knowing that when he returns he will perfect everything about us and this world.

Our relationships (marriages) can be doomed from the start if the intentions of our heart are not pure and committed to serious covenant. We cannot seriously and sincerely love someone and keep our options open for others. Love is only blind when we ignore the wall of character. Of course when dating online we are trusting that the image people present of themselves is authentic. Other than the exceptions from online dating, we are first attracted to our spouse, then we get to know their character in a deeper way. When we enter a relationship with the wrong intentions, we ignore character with the heart intention to conquer and From there, we begin to build relationship directly with the character of  if the intention of our hearts is not lasting covenant between God, us and the one we say we love, we will continue to make casual commitments that expire when the infatuation wears off.

We must be careful not to let the tools meant to help us become distractions. These tools, if not used wisely, can keep us from being effective citizens—both in our country and in the kingdom of God. In this episode, we explore practical tips and techniques to overcome distractions that can make us ineffective at home, work, church, and in our lives overall. I share a story about what it means to be “tethered by choice” and the risks this can pose to our productivity and faithfulness. How can we use modern tools without falling into the traps they set before us?
