The Beach Life

I love being on the beach when the sun comes up. There is this feeling that everything is going to be alright. It's like a sign that life as it is perhaps will not always be. Each new sunrise is like a new day, a new opportunity. So for me the beach life is not about just hanging out. The beach life for me means new hope, new life and new opportunities. So come my friends I invite you to experience and share the beach life.

Believe

I want to share this video I recently created. I get uplifted when I watch it. We need to believe. We need to believe that we can make it and achieve all we set out to achieve. We are powerful. Many times people try to discourage us. They try to keep us living in yesterdays failure as opposed to encouraging us to move to tomorrows success. We must never forget that those who want to do us harm are in darkness and are blinded to the truth that we have moved on. Anyone holding you back must be left behind. Don't even give them your ear. Don't listen to anything they say. They are a hindrance to your progress and prosperity. Just believe that you have arrived at your new destination and you will soon experience all you have believed.

Arise

I look at the sky in the early hours. The awesome sun peeking through the clouds, so close yet so far. I look intently because within me I realize that just as the sun rises so shall I. This is powerful to think about because the sun does this every day faithfully. Each day new and fresh with possibilities, faith and promises. If you are oppressed, mistreated, lonely or outcast from society, be at peace and begin to rejoice because the pattern of the sun embeds a message. The message is that no matter what you are going through it does not have to be forever. The sun will go down on the deep inner pain and turmoil and it can arise to love and peace. In fact if you have faith and action you will be able to mimic the sun. You will be able to arise. If you can receive this, you can arise this very moment as you read this blog. It all starts in the unseen realm of the inward person. Just see yourself arising out of your dark night and you will, in time, arise like the sun. -Coach Henry

Henry Camphor: Learn to love Yourself

I am amazed at the reports of people saying they don't love themselves. I really think that many times we listen to the world too much. The world tells us you are too fat, you are too skinny, you need this gaget or you need that gaget. What tends to happens is if we can't keep up with the latest trends we get disappointed and feel like we don't measure up. It's like we have missed the big mark and don't belong.

People are in their nature, cruel. Humans like to exclude people and make themselves something bigger than they are. This is a fallen humanity. Selfish in its core. Humans like to put people down and oppress them. Many humans like to eternally punish others for mistakes made or mistakes percieved to have been made while they want to experience forgiveness for their mistakes. There are those individuals who want to be relieved of their debts all the while they want to keep others indebted to them. It's really crazy but that is how it is.

If we don't love us who will? If we don't learn to love ourselves no one will truly love us. We have got to understand that no matter how badly you made a mess of your life, you do not deserve to be punished for the rest of your life. No matter how many rejections you have had, that does not mean you deserve to be eternally rejected. If you have been abandoned, does not mean you deserve to be continually abandoned. If you have made mistakes, you don't need to be punished, banished or looked down on for the rest of your life because of something that happened five, ten years or even twenty years ago. Forgive yourself, forgive others and move on and love yourself.

Tree

Stand tall stand strong yes be powerful as a tree. I like trees because they are types of what we as people should be. We should offer shade and shelter to someone in need. A tree can offer you relief from scorching heat and strong winds. We should be a place that people can come set up a tent or nest. Comforted living with and in association with us. A tree is not easily blown down. We should be able to resist the winds of adversity. Yes, we should be like a tree and bear good fruit and make a positive impact in the lives of others. Like a tree planted by the waters let us hold on to our faith and not waver one inch. Our destiny is sure if we continue to live as a tree. -Coach Henry

Today

Today is a brand new day. A day that never has been and a day that never will be again. Knowing this we should maks use of this day to the best of our ability and to our advantage. One way to do this is to have a to do list. Prioritize everything you have to do with the most important things at the top of the list. Another thing that can be done is set goals. Daily, weekly and monthly goals so that you can track your progress. The last thing i would say is to evaluate. How are you doing so far? If you are doing well, then continue your path. If you are not as produtive as you hope stop the direction you are going and change your plan. Then start going again. This is how you take advantage of your day. Remember, success is usuall more than on step put together in a certain directio. It is most often a number of days together with good choices mad rather than on big super day. Enjoy your day and may you experience success in all you do today and the many days that God gives you.

Finding you

It is an amazing thing try to find yourself. Most people don't know they are lost. I would say you are lost if you have no idea of why you are on the earth. If you don't know your gifts. If you don't know how you fit in the world you are lost. Sad to say many Christians I know have a relationship with God but are lost in the sense that they have not found their place in the world. How do you find you? Easier said than done because most of us are so bombarded with so many voices and opinions that we can't hear nor see what the lord is done and doing in our life. It's only the grace and mercy of God that comes and snatches the scales from our eyes, brings us to our senses and returns our reasoning. Then we can see clearly our purpose and how we fit. We then have found us. You will have found yourself. Once you found you, you live you. You live out your purpose everyday. Then you are sure it's the long awaited you. This is the place you have searched all your life. This is the real you.
