Life Coach in the Hot Seat: The Book that Changed my Life

The book that changed my life…

I am a huge reader.  OK scratch that.  I am a huge GLEANER. 

 Books are my mentors so many time I will find myself gravitating to certain types of books that are giving me the same message through different voices. 

 Write. Paint. Run a Business.   

Take time with God.

The book that is changing my life right now is

 “The Voice of Matthew” by Lauren F. Winner. 

  The paperback book looks unassuming.  

 You would probably not think that is contains the book of Matthew from the New testament of the Bible. 

 It is rocking my world right now. 

  I am reading this section of the Bible in a way I have not read it in a very long time.  Reading the Bible not simply out of obligation or to find answers to the current uncontrollable circumstance.  It is leaving me rethinking and hoping for more and letting go and striving for less and being at peace and forgiving in ways that I have not done in a long time.   

The commentary Winner presents is poetry and a taskmaster at the same time.

 

I feel like I am falling in love again.   

With God. With my life.  And my husband and children.  With me.

Excerpts from Savor Your Life: Where Can I Get a Bit of Wisdom?

 

Pottery by Stephanie Amos

 So you want more wisdom, eh?

The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance, the wise grows it under his feet.

 -

James Oppenheim

Wisdom is earned.  With each hardship, there is a lesson. Each time we make the decision to be patient, learn all the details, be coached or become an apprentice of life, we find rich soil on which to grow beautiful new well earned success. 

Sometimes we have to choose to take the long way around, take our time, wait on something, save for it, earn it when we could easily give up or decide if it's not coming easily it's not meant to be.

Sometimes....the waiting is where we find the true wisdom to be successful.  True freedom of choice - even the ones that caused delayed gratification - feels beautiful.

Excerpts from Savor Your Life:What is the REAL Reason You won't Make a Decision?

Pottery by Stephanie Amos 

What is the Real Reason that you won't make a decision?

It is truly said: it does not take much strength to do things, but it requires great strength to decide what to do

Chow Ching

Too many ideas or...

not enough faith to believe?

You know what to do and how to do it or...

you let yourself stay in overwhelm?

You are afraid to be disappointed or...

You know someone who will be disappointed by this choice?

What ONE decision do you need to find the strength to make?
