I saw another one of those seven-day advertisements
today. They are the ones that claim you can change your
life in just seven days. There are ones for losing so much
weight in seven days. There are ones for getting in shape
in seven days. There are ones for starting to make a great
deal of money in seven days. There are even ones for
finding that perfect relationship in seven days. It is
amazing just how many people there are out there who think
that they can make our lives wonderful in a week.
I have, however, found one way that you
can change your life in just seven days. It doesn’t require
that you buy an exercise machine, take a pill, invest your
savings, or give out your credit card number either. All
you need is yourself, and all you have to invest is your
heart, soul, and mind. Just by doing four simple steps for
seven days you can begin to turn your life into the joyous
experience you always hoped it could be.
The first step is simply to realize and
know just how much God loves you. Once you see that God
loves you and wants you to be happy then everything in your
life will become better. You will begin to feel, in fact,
just how glorious life can be.
The next step is just to love God back.
That is all God ever asks of us. By loving God back you
will take the first step towards living the way you were
meant to.
Step three is to love yourself. If God
loves you then you should be able to love yourself as well.
You are a Child of God, after all, and worthy of love.
The last step is to go out and love
others, too. Love is a gift that you can’t just keep to
yourself. It has to be shared.
If you do these four steps for seven
days, then you will never want to stop. Your soul will come
alive. Love and joy will flow through you and show up in
every single thing you do. You will not only change your
life but also become a blessing to God and to the world. |
