Wow wow wow…. thats all i can say at this point… I ordered this movie on demand .. and can watch it as many times as I want during the 48 hour rental… I just watched the end again from 5am on and gonna watch it again … here at 6:30 ….  it does have a kind of “hokey” way in its presentation as they say… but it “really” spoke to my heart about faith, grace and prayer…. and bringing me to my knees .. on what I need to be doing to save some issues in my life, marriage, and family… God does work in mysterious ways… and is “ever present” in our lives… its really what this country really needs as well… thank you Lord for sending me your message … I need to change my attitude and trust more in God’s grace for my life… as HE has the only solutions and direction… the movie is called “War Room” you gotta see it … 

God's work is truly amazing .... I am in constant gratitude for His grace and His direction ... its time for me to fight the "real" enemy ... 

Aloha & A Hui Hou!!!

On this Thanksgiving Day... I began to think and ponder ... the thoughts of "being thankful"... and what REALLY motivates us ...  We can't be motivated by "fear" ... fear of failing ... fear of not being good enough.. fear of not pleasing others.. fear of the unknown.. We need to be motivated by gratitude and thankfulness for all things... things and circumstances ... as God does not make mistakes.. and shows us things through all things... and circumstances ... Sometimes we really don't know why things happen the way they do... but I've learned through many circumstances  in life... that worrying and concern doesn't really help the situation as we think it might ... We preoccupy our time, mind and thoughts with all what we think is going to happen.. trying to figure out why things the way they are .. and what on earth can we can do to change things but sometimes in actuality we are just running in circles... as the plan has already been set... He wants us to be the best we can be and TRUST in Him ... be THANKFUL  .. GRATEFUL and JOYFUL... for what we have ... 

I'm not sure how things got the way they are  ... we all make choices in our lives ... I find it extremely difficult being and living around negative people.. always seeing the doom and gloom in their lives and everyone else too.. God DOESNT MAKE MISTAKES .. and we are all meant and put in these circumstances for a reason whether we really understand or not ..Trust me I'm still working on this task just like everyone else .. It is truly a shame that people don't trust more and worry less... as these negative thoughts from people erode and poison others thoughts ... IF YOU LET THEM...  the key is to be very "thankful & grateful" for whatever things are and learn and grow from these life lessons .. Its an ever changing world out there ... and our gratitude is one of our strongest armors ... along with some positivity and ALOT OF FAITH ... 

KEEP THE FAITH ...

Aloha & A Hui Hou

"POSITIVE" is a choice ....

Everyday... we should be "grateful" for something... whether its a milestone... event, occurrence, choice or anything... I've learned POSITIVE is a choice... 

Its truly a shame... that this is not focused on more in people's lives...

Make the POSITIVE choice today... 

Be grateful....

A Hui Hou!!!!

Wow... new windows are opened ... 

You just never know... what God has in store for us... thats why I'm so very thankful for my very strong faith in God..  

He makes us strong.. and leads us through our trials and tribulations... to our own new personal clearings.. that allows us to see and start new adventures.. or new beginnings or both...  I can honestly say ... I am thankful for my trials.. but you know I'm not calling them that anymore.. as "life lessons.." sounds much more POSITIVE....  

Truly thank for each day... 

learning through my "POSITIVE Life lessons.. " 

I have found that the practice of daily gratitude is important ... The actual practice of writing is very therapeutic in itself.... but the act of writing out the things that you are actual grateful for.. makes us realize and understand that you really do have many things that God has already given you .. and your family to be really grateful for..  

I watch an Oprah show.. some years ago.. and she had a guest, Sarah Ban Breathnach.  She has written many books on gratitude.. and has gone through her experiences poor and plenty.. I've always tried to be thankful for all that I have.. but she is the one who really made it plain and simple to WRITE THESE THINGS OUT... it makes things vividly real.. and forces you and your mind to make the strong mental note .. to really be grateful.. 

Since that show .. I have lots of her publications .. and have made it a point to "pass it on".. and show my gratitude as much as possible ... I have purchased journals and have given them to people... to share my feelings on gratitude..  I encourage them to 

write ten things down EVERYDAY... to show them that being grateful.. will show you new things in their lives that God wants to show them no matter how difficult they may think things are going right now ...  trust me God has a plan.. keep the faith...

Aloha & A Hui Hou

Jeremiah 29:11

Alo)(a, 
Today, I am thankful for meditation.. mind centeredness .... listening to God speaking to me .. to my inner self..   I was introduced to mediation through a friend of mine.. and have recently registered for at least three free guided mediations through the Chopra Center.. You may use mediation in many ways.. and center your thoughts and prayers to what maybe familiar to you.. but I truly believe I can hear God's voice through his presence.. and calmness...

There are reasons for all of our ups and downs in our lives.. and we may not understand them right away.. but we need to make sure we are always listening to our inner self.. God's voice speaking to us.. as praying is good .. and listening is also...

"Be still and know that I am God.... "
Psalms 46:10

A )(ui )(ou!!!
