Recruitthebest Daily Digest- If You Don’t Like Your Reality

Do not pretend to be who you are not. If you don’t like what is happening in your life, take a look at your reality.

Because you get what you pay attention to. ‘Living systems change to preserve themselves.’

The first act of life is to create a boundary, a membrane that is the cell’s identity. It defines an inside and an outside, what it it, what it is not.’

Life cannot be sustained when the boundary is too rigid. Nor can it generate new capacities and adapt to its environment if the boundary is too open.’

Without identity there is no life, no creation, no responsibilities, no continuation, no possibility for evolutionary change. Yet every change is motivated by an attempt to change, to preserve a self.’

‘Embody your faith. Don’t talk about it, walk it. People will notice and respond.’

Conversation is the technology. Curiosity, vulnerability, mutual respect give it power.’

Curiosity leads to adaptive responses.’

Let God Do This For You

No matter what you are facing right now in your life, you are not alone. You are not facing it alone. God is right there with you. God is watching you to see how you are going to go about it.

God is not far from you. He is right there with you. He is just testing your faith. God wants to see what you can do without Him.

Remember, ‘life is full of tests.’ That is why you shouldn’t think that God doesn’t love you. No, that is not the point. God loves you. He wants you to grow. He wants you to develop your wings. He wants you to be who you really are. He wants to see who you are when you are tested, when you are under pressure.

So, when life hits you, do not give up. When life takes on you, remember that ‘life is full of tests.’ When things are not going well for you, remember that ‘everything great is learned and earned through pain.’

When life tests you, remember that ‘God tests us to refine us- not to punish us.’ From today, whatever it is that you have been avoiding, now is the time to get serious with what you are doing. Now is the time for you to focus on what you have been avoiding.

Remember, today is your reality. If you do not want to face the same thing tomorrow, you must face your reality today. ‘Don’t wait; don’t put it off. Do it now.’
