Living Life with no Regrets.

Living Life with no Regrets.

Not everybody does it but that doesn't mean that it can't be done. I believe you have to start at a young age and I believe this attitude has to go with you throughout your life. Making mistakes can produce a sense of regret in your life, but like all fears we have to face them and forgive them. Sometimes forgiving ourselves helps us gain the necessary perspective on why we felt hurt by others. Sometimes understanding our pain, can give us validation as we accept the limitations and faults of others. No one can go through life not feeling hurt, but it is our choice with what we do with the hurt.

Pain is real and it stings sometimes, and it is a grace of God not to carry our burdens with us as we get older. Sometimes we just need to feel that we belong. Being mindful is a great way to start living with no regrets. The more conscious we are to our feelings the better it is to let go. Blame sets us back, and is the cause for fear and anger. Yes taking full responsibility for our choices can set us free, only if we understand why we do the things we do. Anyone who helps you to see that you are not alone is a good friend. Part of the fear of being unforgiven is feeling that no one will understand your pain. When you, or someone can break through the confusion that sets in after we have been hurt, and brings awareness, the quicker you will see why that thing or person caused you so much pain.

Awareness is just the start of healing. I believe the next step is having a healthy relationship with yourself, then transitioning that love to other people. We have to continue to learn to love others as we love ourselves. Jesus was not just a great teacher, he knows how to love and how to forgive. If we can learn not to suppress things, it would be better for our souls and our health. Part of moving on from our pain is learning to let go. Most people get stuck here because they feel that if they let go, the person or thing that caused them the pain will go unpunished. When we see that nothing really disappears, we can take our love and forgiveness into the future with us. This is Mike.

On Christian Marriage. (Short)

On Christian Marriage. (Short) The modern co-habitation crisis has produced a lot of single moms and dads, and has fractured "family units" allowing other family members and relatives to take a bigger role in these "Separated families." There isn't a "one cause" why families have separated or divorced, it is a complicated issue, sometimes resulting in very hard emotions for Society to process. Things like the "millennial sexual revolution" have contributed to the widespread "non-committal" attitude, which in turn has given the traditional marriage the "black eye" it currently has and has turned many Christian men away from seeking a life partner. The more society devalues "traditional marriage" the more co-habitation you will see in all the other generations as well as the Millennials. This is Mike.

Why Christians must show Mutual Concern for One another.

  Look and see, there is no one at my right hand; no one is concerned for me. I have no refuge; no one cares for my life. Psalm 142:4. Christians in the church should have mutual concern for one another, this is what it means to be part of the body of Christ, 1 Corinthians 12:25. It’s takes good pastoral leadership to foster this sense of concern, and where it is missing, individuals who are suffering in the church are overlooked and not supported. Every believer needs support and encouragement, but when this is missing, the church divides and loses it power and testimony. Christians live like the world, and become vulnerable to Satan’s attacks when nobody is supporting them outside the church. I used to belong to an evangelical church which had great leadership, and something called small groups. This church felt like a family and I had people who shared my Christian walk with me when I was not in the church building. I have been attending a different denomination that doesn’t hav...

Ontarian's to possibly extend Daylight Savings time till next Spring.

Ontarian's to possibly extend Daylight Savings time till next Spring. Regardless as to why we started this time change, it has been in effect many years before I was born, or my Parents were born. I understand that some people can benefit with the extra sunlight in the winter time, but I want to give you a definition of our circadian rhythm as humans. circadian rhythm (/sɜːrˈkeɪdiən/) is any biological process that displays an endogenous, entrainable oscillation of about 24 hours. These 24-hour rhythms are driven by a circadian clock, and they have been widely observed in plants, animals, fungi, and cyanobacteria. In other words, our bodies are biological clocks that operate within the realm of time, and time is measured by how much daylight is in a day. Our bodies adjust to time, but it takes time and a steady exposure to sunlight during the day to set our internal clocks. When we experience time changes, our bodies change along with the 24 hour day cycle. When we over-extend ...
