Release Yourself from the Grip of the Egoic Self | Eckhart Tolle

Giving total control to God, what does this mean? I used to think, as I got older I began to realise what it meant and just how hard it would be, it used to amaze me at how easy those who had done it made it sound. You see I am a life coach, just starting out, with little money but lots of drive; I tired to start my business 12 months ago and didn’t do a very good job of it because I was so consumed with all things unhealthy for the soul.

We often hear people use the word “soul.” They talk about “mind-body-soul”, they might state that someone “has soul,” they can point to a “poor soul,” they may designate certain individuals as “soul mates,” and they could talk about operating on a “soul level.” What exactly are they talking about? Do they really know themselves? Are we a soul or do we have a soul? What then, is a soul?

Numerology is still one of the least known, and certainly least understood, forms of fortunetelling. Knowledge from the mystical, spiritual world of astrology, I-ching, angel guidance, tea leaf reading and Runes is mostly unknown. Strictly in the neighborhood of numerology, there’s even more misunderstanding between all the types of numerology. Each culture has its own version. Certainly, one of the most understood is the Western version. But if you are at all familiar with Feng Shui, you may think it’s the Chinese Numerology that’s more understood.

There are three reasons to celebrate the spiritual you. 1. There’s no other you. 2. Know that our spirituality is all we possess. 3. Rarely are things as important as we think they are.

We can thank God for 3 things. 1. For the doors closed to us. 2. That God’s got more. 3. Just how GOOD is God?

We can be assured; Jesus is the be-all and end-all in spiritual terms. No other name, rhyme or reason is to claim our worship. Just one man. Worthy all our adoration.

Don’t tell me you don’t have time. Don’t even go there! If you have time to read this post, then you have time to stop, write and send an encouraging note or email to someone God’s put on your mind. It may be an inconvenience to you but to the recipient, it’s like two arms lifting her up and carrying her through a difficult situation…

Heaven is an experience. A state of mind. I haven’t been in Heaven for sometime now.

There were many times when my kids were growing up that I must have looked like an absolute idiot to my neighbors and friends, but I really didn’t care. The things I did to make my children happy or to have a lot of fun often included some process of making me look ridiculous to some people as an adult. So what?

This article asks the question, ‘So what are we supposed to do?’, that is, how do ordinary folk like us respond to the things that are happening in our world? I believe that the book of Hebrews gives us an answer to the ‘so what?’ question. The most important thing in these times is to be close to Jesus. Also, a most powerful testimony in these times is the living testimony of a person full of hope. The third thing we should do is to expend time and effort on the church fellowship.

Judgment is the attempt of the mind to attach some kind of meaning to your experiences in life. This meaning in turn defines who you are in relationship to certain events, circumstances or people you meet. In other words, the way the world represents itself to you is an exact replication of what or who you think you are. If you see yourself as a victim of abuse, you will see potential abusers everywhere and consequently manifest even more abuse in your life.

What if the next time you phone rang, you found that God was on the line. Strange way to get in touch with you? Maybe, but this was the only way He could get your attention. You’ve been so busy, that you’ve ignored His voice. The conversation might go something like this….
