Whatever we have on the inside…can be a gift...or not so much


I wrote about this in one of my books


And have seen it too many times, not to believe it


If we have lots of love, patience, joy, peace and forgiveness on the inside…


That’s what we give to those connected to us…and those we come in contact with


If we have pain, anger, hatred, jealousy, deception and unforgiveness on the inside…


A cocktail of negative feelings gone ignored, you may get just about anything…


Up to and including…taking the breath of another


The good news is that we don’t have to be Line 6


We have the power within, to back it up to Line 4…if we need to


It takes being honest with ourselves, about ourselves


And being willing to work until our change comes…and stays


Change isn’t easy and certainly consistent and lasting change…


Moreso than not, requires the assistance of the One Who created us


Thank God we don’t have to stay the way we are


Every day that we are given the gift of saying “Good Morning”…


Is another chance to do different…and be different


When we change…whatever is connected to us changes


And if not, the connection changes and no longer affects us the same


If you’re reading this, you’ve been granted a gift…


That wasn’t available for everyone today…another opportunity for change


We don’t have the power to change others…just ourselves
