CHASING YOUR DREAMS

~ Patricia Fagan ~ 7 Comments

Life is an illusion, a made up reality of what you think is possible. We all live in our own little world which was manifested based on our emotions, and life preferences. Some are victims of their circumstance and environment. What if you began to change the way you think about what’s actually possible? We have the power and Continue reading “CHASING YOUR DREAMS” →

Life’s Purpose

We are all unique, like our planet earth, none of us are exactly alike.

We were created that way on purpose

By God’s infinite wisdom,

Earth was designed for man and man for earth

Everything we need to sustain life is here,

 We were made in his image, to serve rather than to be served,

Using our gifts and talents, given by our creator,

To live a meaningful existence

 Not defined by earthly passions and desires

Which seeks to corrupt and discourage

 A life which touches the heart and soul

With God as one’s foundation.

QUIET MOMENTS

alone time

I love spending time alone and having quiet moments all to myself very early in the morning. My days are usually filled with so many other distractions vying for my attention and sometimes it’s very difficult to be alone, to think clearly of new possibilities. Everyday we live in a world that is constantly pulling us in different directions. It is important to make each day count, finding time for solitude and silence to refresh and renew ones spirit.

Jesus sought solitude many times in prayer during his ministry due to the demands of his life. His Foundation was his heavenly father which renewed his strength to continue on his journey. This is a lesson we all can learn from, as the pressures of our daily life seems to increase rather than decrease. Time spent alone with God in prayer will give you strength and open doors to a new reality.

WANTS VS NEEDS

fashionHave you ever had a strong desire to purchase an item that you felt you couldn’t live without? Well, for many of us that is a regular occurrence. I remember a time when I saw a particular coat in a store window on my travel to work everyday. It was a fashion style that was  popular among the ladies and of course I wanted it so badly that common sense went right out the window. The price tag was pretty steep but who cares. I made it my purpose in life to buy this coat of many colors and as I made my way into the store one day, money in hand, I finally made my purchase. I was beaming with joy and in that moment, I felt like a million bucks. Sadly, in all the years I had this beautiful coat, I wore it once as I strutted and styled down the streets of New York. It  was a temporary fix, a moment of pleasure and like most things in our life, out of sight, out of mind. Years later, while sorting through my closets, I stumbled upon that beautiful expensive coat and decided to donate it to charity.
