YOU WERE MADE FOR SO MUCH MORE!

February 19, 2008 by Rev. John Crestwell

You are an innovator, and just as this expansive, growing universe creates
each and everyday, you have the capacity to expand beyond your present place
to a much more purposed existence. You can overcome whatever it is that
plagues your spirit. You have the power within you to lift yourself to new
horizons, and that bliss is yours if you are willing to wrestle with who you
are, with what you want out of life, and where you want to go.

There is a celebration coming after you wrestle to find yourself. In the
end, after the struggle subsides, you will be the better for it. Your
transformation will lead you to a new land of possibilities because life has
a mysterious way of responding when you respond to the deep yearnings of
your soul. When you feel better about yourself, when your outlook changes,
when you work on being the best you that you can be, others will feel better
about you, and transformation will have taken place.

You were made for so much more! Expect more out of life and you will receive
more out of life.

In the Spirit of life,

Rev. John

Finding Meaning in The Madness

January 25, 2008 by Rev. John Crestwell

You know it’s amazing how hospitality works when you drive your car. You let someone over when there’s traffic, then a few moments later, when you need to get over, someone let’s you over. One good turn deserves another! But please make note that one bad turn, one negative turn creates another too!  Think about a parking lot when you are trying to find a space.  One car has parked poorly and as a result, by the time that row of cars reaches near its capacity for spaces, there are two less parking spaces as a result of one bad parker.  Doesn’t that just get under your skin!

You see, there is a reciprocal relationship in life and in the Universe.  Universal law drives in both directions but we have a choice in which direction we drive!

Doing something simple–something nice for someone is how we can all create more meaningful life experiences. I assure you that your broken heart will begin to mend, you will feel better about yourself and circumstance(s), your happy heart will be even more jubilant, your sadness will be, at least for awhile, subdued. The more you do for others, the more you will discover how much joy comes to your life.

 

Try this: for all the things that bother you, do one nice thing for someone else. If there are 3 things that bother you, do 3 good things–3 nice and simple things for somebody else.

Believe me, your small act of kindness will be reciprocated and you will discover new meaning in the madness of it all. However, it’s your choice. Choose this day which path you will follow.
