Transformation

 

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all people.5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. John 1:1

“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path” Psalm 119:105

“I saw different energies surround different people. I saw how a person’s words actually affect the energy field around him. The very words themselves –the vibrations in the air — attract one type of energy or another . . .If we understood the awesome power of our words, we would prefer silence to almost anything negative. In our thoughts and words we create our own weaknesses and our own strengths.” Embraced By The Light, by Author Betty J. Eadie  Page 58

We have no idea how we create our lives by the very words we speak. Expressions that come out of our mouths…Oh my Aching back… and we wonder why our back hurts? Or we say to our very children…How could you be so stupid?… And we wonder why our children have low self esteem.

We need to change the way we speak, the way we think. Purify our words, so that what is created within us is in harmony with God’s will for our lives. By doing so, we can make our bodies well and our lives harmonic lives.

“Do not conform yourselves to this age but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, so that you may judge what is God’s will, what is good, pleasing and perfect.” Romans 12:2

How do we take that step towards making positive changes in our lives?? Thankfully, there are many tools available to aid us in accomplishing this goal. By now, most readers have tuned me out. The only ones left are those who truly feel called to change. First of all, in order to change ourselves, we cannot expect transformation to happen overnight. It could happen overnight, but for practical purposes let’s resign ourselves for the long haul. As many parts of ourselves are resistant to change or transformation. If we plan for the long haul, we have a better chance of actually accomplishing our goal of transformation

Transformation – A marked change, as in appearance or character, usually for the better.

The best image to describe transformation is the ugly Caterpillar transforming to the beautiful butterfly. But how do we transform ourselves. Is it even possible? The answer is YES! It is very possible.

An easy way to transform ourselves is to use Affirmations. Generally choose an affirmation that will help you change a negative thought into something positive. Like “I have nothing good to say” your affirmation can be “Everything I say and do will bless everyone I come in contact with today and tomorrow.” Post your affirmation on your bathroom mirror. Post your affirmations on your computer. Post them over the sink, where you do the dishes. Post it every where you need to, in order to remember to repeat your affirmation often – until it permeates your being. Betty J. Eadie has a number of affirmations and prayers towards transforming your life in her book “Prayers & Devotions for Daily Living.”

The WAVES Forums (http://www.embracedbythelight.com/waves/wavesvision.htm )has a couple of classes who specifically teach from this book of Prayers and Devotions. If you can’t afford the book, you can pick-up the affirmations from the Forum itself. These are but a few ways we can begin the transformation process in ourselves. Oh, and hang-on if you do this… be ready for a wild ride!! Because when you embark on the path of transformation, you can expect some wonderful miracles to happen. Don’t be afraid of change. Be afraid of not-changing, of being stuck and be afraid of returning to heaven without accomplishing your mission on earth. That’s what I would be fearful of, if I were to be fearful – which I try my darnest not to be.

 

We are children of God. And by just being who we are meant to be makes the very words that come out of our mouths, powerful. Able to create, able to destroy, able to heal, able to make sick.   Blessing you this Wonderful Holiday!  Happy Thanks Giving!!
