bosanchez - Are You Ashamed For Who You Are?

 

 

There are people who feel that they don’t deserve to ask for anything.

That’s why I like the story of Elijah and Elisha.

Next to Moses, Elijah was the greatest Old Testament prophet. Elisha was his disciple, his understudy. Think Robin to Batman.

One day, the great prophet says to his disciple, “Ask what I shall do for you before I be taken away from you.”

I love what Elisha said. He replied, “I pray that I get a double portion of your spirit.”

Wow! What guts. What daring. What boldness!

Sometimes, I imagine if Elisha was Filipino. It would have been a very different scenario, believe me.

Because the Pinoy Elisha would have blushed, chuckled, and with a wave of his hand replied, “Oh, nothing at all. You’ve given me so much already.”

And Elijah would have to cajole him, “Come on, Elisha, tell me. What do you want?”

To which the Pinoy Elisha would reply, “Nothing. Really! Nothing at all.”

Elijah would press some more, until Elisha would say, “OK, just give me a itsy-bitsy little, tiny smudge of your anointing. And I’ll be more than happy!”

This is what I call the “Itsy-Bitsy Spirituality”. And it has many devotees.

It’s very Filipino. But I’m sure that it’s a universal phenomenon too.

We need to learn to ask.

Many times, we don’t ask because we think we don’t deserve to ask.

We don’t feel we deserve a good job.

We don’t feel we deserve a good husband.

We don’t feel we deserve a house.

We don’t feel we deserve healing.

We think that we’re small.

 

Ask!

 

May you dreams come true,

How to Set Priorities Using the ABCDE Method - Brian Tracy

The more thought you invest into setting priorities before you begin a task, the faster you will get the important things done. The more important and valuable the task is to you, the more motivated you are to overcome procrastination and launch yourself into the job.

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - My boyfriend’s messaging strange women

Question: Do you have any idea why a man would start instant messaging strange woman after being in a five year relationship. Said he was “stupid” and wasn’t physical with anybody. I guess you can say I have trust issues. Answers: Ouch! I am so sorry. Do I have any idea why? Here is what I have learned, first off I am really sorry because that really hurts. If you have trust issues especially, that would hurt and sting even more. So first something about trust and then something about men. Trust: When we trust, it’s not that we trust someone to be perfect. That sets us up for failure because no one is perfect and you can’t control anybody. That is insanity if we try to control another and put all of our power – making sure they be a certain way to so that we are safe. Instead, find that safety and trust inside you. That safety being that capacity to discern and know that come what may, you’ve got your own back – you can take care of yourself. It takes a lot of pressure off of other...
