I am Scared Silly

Need Advice?

Life’s Interruptions

 As we are going about our business and something new, unplanned, many times unpleasant, comes and takes us off the planned course we are, were on–Life’s Interruptions.

What do I do when life throws me a curveball?
What do I do when things don’t go as I have planned?
Ask Ruby
I am Scared Silly 
Dear Ruby
I have mentally abused, verbally abused, financially abused, emotionally abused and physically abused and I am chasing faith but becoming more fearful by the day, what can I do? What am I suppose to do? I am scared silly!

Dear Scared Silly
      Start seeing the twinkle in your eyes.  Start bringing sunshine in your life.  Stop allowing other to whisper sweet nothing (negatives) in your ears.
 Let’s start living God’s Blueprint for your life!
      You deserve to live the best life that God has prepared for you.  Most often, we live beneath our upbringing or according to other friends or people on the T.V. standards.  When we refuse to be great (the Star) in our own life, we do God, our parents, and the world a disservice by not allowing them to experience our greatness.  When we are the star in our own life, we do not have time to be mistreated or intimated by others.  When we see greatness in our own life we refuse to allow others to treat us less than how we deserve to be treated.
      In life we spend too much time on things we have no control over.  But, when it comes to those things we can control, we must be serious and sincere about giving them and our life the very best.  It is important that we no longer allow fear and doubt to sabotage or destroy our greatness.  Now is the time to stop dimming and hiding the light in our life in an effort to make others feel comfortable.  Let’s be the bright star in our own life and let’s be extremely careful and selective about who we allow to shine along with us.  Let’s begin to be accountable about the decisions we make.
     As we begin to be great in our own life, remember that life gives us many chances but only one opportunity, so when opportunity knocks lets be prepared.  We must make every moment count.  The time has come when we can no longer afford to allow our dreams to remain asleep while standing on the sidelines doubting, fearing, angry, jealous, and envious while others cross the line to victory.  We deserve to walk boldly in the grace of who God has called us each to be without doubt, fear and our past to whisper to us otherwise.
     It is time for us to not only be great in our own life but also for us to win Eagle Award for our greatness.  We are an original design and God broken mold when he created each of us.  God has but an amazing amount of greatness and blessings designed just for us with each of our names on it. Let’s go take back our greatness and blessing from satan. 
     In the words of author Marianne Williamson from her book A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of a Course in Miracles. She wrote, “Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.  It is our light, not our darkness that most frighten us.  We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talent, fabulous?  Actually, who are we not to be?  We are children of God.  Playing small does not serve the world.  There is nothing enlightening about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you.  We are all meant to shine, as children do.  We were born to make true the glory of God that is within us.  It is not just in some of us; it is in all of us.  And as we let our own light shine, we give other people permission to do the same.  As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates other.”
