Ride The Lifetrain w/Chuckie

Well passengers, if the following isn’t a mirror moment for me that I need constant reminder of. I write and read this laughing all the while. I’ve had some shall we say challenging moments where the following read is just what the doctor ordered. Read and hopefully be blessed as I am.

Have you ever found yourself at odds with someone. Well, I have this week. I guess we’ve all had instances like that. While I know they must be dealt with in a Godly way, it taint not always easy. So I submit the following as a reminder and example of Jesus (WWJD).

Most times it seems that our only choice sometimes is to get caught up in the situation or walk away.  My ego often whispers in my ear that I MUST prove I am right.  If I walk away, the other person will win.  The ego keeps us from recognizing there is another choice.  Whatever situation confronts us, we have to recognize our right to be at peace; at peace with ourselves, you know…Me, Myself, and I…

I have to be ever mindful as I suggest you do, is to understand that the need to be right and meet discord head on begins within.  It is a need that stems from feelings of powerlessness, unworthiness and a lack of love.  It shows up in life as arguments and confrontation.  When we can concentrate that negative energy into getting peace in our hearts and minds, we draw peace into our lives. When discord and disharmony present themselves, we can stand firm. When we let go of the need to prove to ourselves, nothing and no one can disturb the quiet and peace of our minds.

So I look into the mirror today and remind myself:

Get handle on your anger big guy before it controls so that you will not only help yourself succeed in your personal life, but your professional one as well. Anger is a strong feeling of antagonism, hostility, or displeasure toward someone or something. It is an adopted behavior that takes on many forms including verbal, physical, and emotional outbursts. Anger can have many stressful effects on not only your life, but on others around you. Some effects of your anger has manifested itself as follows:

* Marital and family problems
* Poor work performance
* Feeling negative and uneasy
* Lack of energy
* Restless sleep
* Lack of appetite or too much of an appetite
* Tendency to gossip
* Possibility of losing family and friends

So, deal with it…and be at peace.  All come on, I know you guys have talked to yourself before… LOL

Deal with that ego and may today bring you peace, the peace of God! All Aboard… “The LifeTrain!”
