Self Reflection


In life we find we are always and inevitably looking to

know what others are thinking about us, places, people,

and most of all If thy are on the same emotional level as us.

It is not something that gust happens to be.

We chose to think in this way.

Some of us do this in a small amount and some of us tack it to the extreme.

To a point that it becomes a driving force that consumes our vary being.

I myself have to a small amount as we all have.

In one way this is how we find pace in looking away from our selfs.

I find in life this can be something we learned at a

young age do to rejection from any one.

This cud also be do to many other circumstances.

But in the end as fare as the here and now.

We are choosing to keep thinking this way.

Because in some way it is like a security blanket for us.

Some times we let it get in the way of our own stability and will being.

Hurting our jobs, relationships, family's, and much more.

I find this is often fond as a problem that happens not only with this way of thinking.

For a explanation we can look at the facts.

some of us become so fare down this rabbet hole.

We begin to think that all of our life is blocked from moving forward or back.

letting one excuse after another provent us from becoming successful.

Can this be because we fear we are alone and don't have what it takes?

Or can this be because we don't fell we will have

someone to share it with and have the support we wont?

Is it really that simple as to always need that constant reassurance?

This is not vary enlightened. This I will tell you.

The more you tell yourself you cant the more you cant.

The more you say you can the more you can

This is what I call letting your problems git in the way of your blessings.

I know we can all do and achieve any thing we want in the literal since.

So in this I end todays sermon.

stop and think what you can do instead of what you can not do.

  1. Great in put Adam. It truly is life experience, and the way one has been treated by others in life that determines our self worth. For many of us it is lack of confidence and constently being self consious depending on your sensitivety level and what you've been through in life that determines the severity of you're lack of self worth. But like you said Adam, it can all be reversed and gained back if you just have the strength and belief that you are somebody and can do whatever you set your mind to. Then you will see things prevail to your liking, and your life will turn around.

  2. Thank you, Reverend Adam, for reminding us about the power of thoughts and how we create good or ill with them. This is a very important message. Liked how you put it about getting so far down the rabbit hole--well said. Got to guard against those rabbit holes!! You give us tools for that. Also, really hit home to me about needing the constant reassurance. What a timely message!! Good stuff, Rev. K Boy seconds that, too! Thank you.
