May 31st Daily Reflection

I woke up today and reflected upon the events of yesterday. Wondering if I could truly be at peace when some around me are going nuts, it is truly the peace of the Lord decending upon me or am I in denial. Then, I prayed and was still for a moment and I realized that I was indeed encircled with the peace and love of the Lord. That peace and love has made a better leader than any leadership book I have read. And it gives me faith that I can help others be at peace! Is being encircled by the peace and love of the Lord helping you?

May 30th Daily Reflection

Spending time with the Lord. At first when I heard this, I thought it meant I needed to spend an hour each morning with the Lord, however, as I have grown, I realize it means spending time whenever appropriate. And as such, I have been taking the hour and dispersing it thru the day. I find it especially helpful to spend time with the Lord when everything around me feels as if it is coming crashing in. I was feeling overwhelmed in a meeting and I took a minute to quite my mind, prayed to the Lord and that simple act allowed me to be a productive contributor of the meeting. Spending time with the Lord all day long keeps me grounded and reminded of who is in control. How doyou spend time with the Lord?

May 26th Daily Reflection

The beauty and glory of the Lord! I wanted to share an experience from last night that simply highlights the previous statement. I was once again out riding at critical mass when I got a call from a co-worker, that something was wrong with one of my applications so while riding I took the call and gave some suggestions to him. Later I would realize that my suggestions were not very helpful. Then a miraculous thing happened - one of my friends had a tire blow out! It required us to stop the ride and get it repaired by a good Samaritan, while her bike was being repaired, I was able to reconnect with my team and they found and resolved the issue! With the tire and application fixed, we created our own critical mass and then went out for drinks and dinner. How perfect an evening that the Lord gave us! That my friend, is the beauty and glory of the Lord, allowing us to experience heaven on earth.

May 25th Daily Reflection

Last year this time, when I read today's devotion, I struggled to understand it and put into practices. However, I didn't let my stuggles deter me, I turned it into a challenge and each day I tried to pray and be quite with the Lord until one day I could pray and be quite with the Lord! And since, when people talk about problems, all I see are opportunities, my stress has been turned into a positive stress, I am bouncing and when I experience negative energy, I quick recover. So this year as I read the devotion, my load is light, my spirits are high and my love for the Lord and the world is intense! How is the Lord lightening your load?

May 24th Daily Reflection

Bring your wondering mind and restless thoughts to the Lord. I smile and my heart laughs because I do that and the results is a constant peace regardless of what is happening around me. Not that I am saying that everyday is wonderful or I have zero problems, what I am saying is that when negative energy creeps into my life, I can stop and it is flow thru me by praying and being in communication with the Lord. This means the negative energy doesn't remain within me, instead it comes in and goes out. The speed at which it comes in and goes out is deteremine by how quickly I can realize it and start my communication with the Lord. Communicating with the Lord has had such a tremendously positive impact on my life! How is being in communications had a great impact on your life?
