Choose & Purpose

Consistently & Persistently

"Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things."

​

You may ask, "What?!  That's impossible in my life.  That's too hard in this world with all the craziness going on."  You are right, if you are trying to just power through changing your mind and changing your perceptions it most often does not work; it doesn't "stick," and it often causes frustration, depression, anger and any number of other emotions to spring out and overtake you. 

 

When you work this description of powerful whole-body participation and move to get in line with God's Word, your perception will change.  Keep in mind that when your perception changes, your life changes, and when your life changes, your actions, reactions, emotions, and motivations will change.  You get to choose whether these will change in positive ways or decay in negative ways as you learn the tools and techniques we teach at LifeRegeneration. 

​

BE AWARE, you will not be required to stuff your emotions, nor put on a happy face when you don't feel happy!  It is a process that will require you to be persistent and consistent, but you can do it with the tools and technique we train you in. 

​

Neurologists have discovered that just the act of smiling big for a full minute will shift your whole being into a different perception and emotional climate.  One counselor, suggests (if you just don't want to smile) that you can even hold a pencil between your teeth with your lips wide open for a whole minute!  Yes!  When you change body stance it will make a neuro connection with the rest of you and shift things!  Crazy but true that what we say out loud and what we do with our physical body will change our whole being for better or good depending on what we are choosing to do and say. 

​

It's called neuro-linguistics which was covered in God's Word long before scientists discovered that our body responds in this way.

READ the booklet available in the LifeRegeneration store on GratiTuning to learn how to tune up your gratitude attitude.  The following are just a few things to help you see the amazing things God has done for and in you that you can thank Him for - do it out loud; you voicing these changes you!

 

• Life Default:  You get what you deserve.  God's Provision: Jesus got what you deserve.  

• God, thank you for giving us a manual for life and making it come alive as I read and apply it. 

• God, you created me and spoke this world into being for me to live in and enjoy.  Everything in it is there for me to learn life lessons and overcome the challenges it presents me with.  

• Thank you Jesus that you are the Breath of Life and the Living Water who brings me abundant life.
• Thank you God for my (family, friends, pets, home, etc.)
• Anything!  Even the most simple things in your life.

 

GratiTuning

It is one of the seven vital habits we do well to learn and truly make a habit. 

​

This is on my bedroom wall and I make it a point to not tune it out or cease to see it like some things we put on our wall and then don't really pay attention to.

​

I see it every morning and make it a point to thank God for:

• Something around me

• Someone specific in my family

• Something that I'm standing in faith on after asking God to intervene

• Something extremely simple like the sunshine or a pet.

​

. . .  and keep thanking until I FEEL the gratitude in my heart. 

​

God's creation was woven into the science of our world and it works by default (just like gravity is a default).  Just be aware that "default" in this world will often return the struggles you've been trying to get rid of.  This world is a fallen world, yet if we walk by faith in what Christ has accomplished for us, we can overcome the things/challenges in this world. 

 

It helps me to think of this world as a hologram that God created as a "classroom" for us to learn the lessons we need to learn and hone our strengths, purpose, goals, choices, life.  Think about it. God is outside of time - He sees the beginning from the end and is therefore not in this "hologram" like we are.  Jesus stepped into the hologram in order to help us and provide the price on our head required by justice.  The Holy Spirit was left here with us to be a helper, so take advantage of Him.  God the Father is outside time watching over all we do in order to work His plan in and through us. Yes!  Crazy ideas I have but they help me to grasp the possibilities and take advantage of the tools we have here. 

 

Choosing GRATITUDE is part of the life manual - a change up that uses the rules in your favor and in God's favor and in favor of those around you (like aerodynamics has rules that overcome gravity).  It is just one of the things that works extremely well. 

 

AND . . . it works even better once you've "signed" on by taking the step to believe in what Jesus has done, with your whole heart and mind.  To understand this, check out:
