Creator-based® Goodness


 In your heart of hearts, do you feel like you’re a good person? For me, that has changed through life seasons, but I have learned a way to get an accurate picture of my present circumstances.


To begin with, you are whole and valuable just as you are.  Never forget your innate value.  The fact that you are here means we need you.  Our Creator is abundant but smart.  Nothing is wasted- and that includes the energy needed to create you.  You are worth every effort ever exerted on your behalf.  You, my friend, are a treasure indeed.


Now, that has not always rung true to me in my life, so I want to share with you a way to get a more accurate picture than you may see in your present circumstance.  Maybe you’re in a great place.  In that case, read no further.  You know your worth, and you know how much we need you.  Kudos.  But, on doubtful days, this might help.  It helped me.  You’ll need paper and a pen.


Five steps for clarity, the Creator-based® Way.


  1. Pray.  Check-in with your Creator and let them know what you’re doing.  Ask for guidance as you proceed.  Then, notice your breath and mindfully enter your present environment- are you too cold or hot? Get comfy.  Breathe again.  Shift in your seat until it feels good.  Enjoy a deep breath one more time and settle in.  Finally, repeat aloud or to yourself three times, “I am calm.  I am safe.  I choose to be here.”  3 times- I mean it! Don’t skimp here.
  2. In this calm state, consider your past.  See with your imagination, your mind’s eye, and look at the life experience directly behind you.  What’s happened this week? Conversations you’ve had, work and life experiences, worries, self-talk in your mind and heart- what comes up?  Jot it down.  What is immediately behind you?
  3. Next, do the same thing with what you see immediately ahead of you.  Write down your worries, your compliments, your concerns, and your joys immediately forthcoming.  Does it have a common theme? Could you name it with a chapter summary or a title? What would it be?
  4. Finally, do the same thing with your life.  A quick scan of the experiences that jump out brings up what common theme?
  5. Meld all three entries together and shine the light of love on them.  What do you learn from your Creator and your own heart?  Is it something about your innate goodness? I thought it would be.


You see, friend, we are all loved in one way or another.  We are all good in some way and not so good in others.  That’s what a 50/50 life is all about.  Life is not all of nothing.  It’s an amalgamation of experiences that ultimately add up to good.   And you are good for real.  Your Creator will assure you of that when you ask.


You are good!

You are valuable!

You are a brilliant contribution to this world.


Remember that.


All my love, 

Beth

  Monday Morning Inspiration April 22 2024 |  EDITION NO. 00229 Hey friend, Let’s talk  Creation .  Paul taught the Philippians, “I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.”  That’s a bold declaration of the faith that Paul had in his omnipotent Creator.  Faith is the power that creates and moves  all things.  Now, don’t abandon ship here- this is not a Sunday School lesson.  Faith is what you used to turn on your lights this morning, remember?  Faith is what you used to start your car too.  You believed the light would turn on if you flicked the switch you wouldn’t have taken the action to do it.  I know you have faith. You’ve got this.     Let’s go back to the first step of that formula for creating your one, amazing life.  If you could feel something you really wanted to feel, what would that feeling be? I wanted to feel happy.  I thought I had put together my one, perfect, happy life.  However; some time ago, that life had gotten so out of control, I had forgotten what

  Monday Morning Inspiration June 2024 |  EDITION NO. 00230 This made me giggle- we have so many choices and options that sometimes I forget that behaving “becomingly” is an option…. I hope you become what you want to be today. Do you sometimes feel like a 'woman without"? You may be familiar with the Bible story told of a poor widow bringing her offering to the temple.  It was such a small amount, a mite. It was not even enough to buy her bread and cheese for a single meal.  Would it really make any difference? Yet she was commended because “She of her want cast in all she hath.” Her society had defined her as a ‘woman without.’  She was a woman without a husband, a woman without means, a woman without a fancy house, but was she truly a woman without anything?    Do you sometimes define yourself as a ‘woman without’?   'Women without' = women without a job, women without children, women without the coolest phone, women without a great friend group, without a fantasti
