Today's affirmation is "I am intentional with myself because I am a Phoenix".
Today's affirmation promotes a powerful message of self-value and intentionality with yourself. We are all Phoenixes, arising from the ashes of our past experiences with fresh ideas, motivation and determination to become our best selves.
It's important to stay connected to that inner wisdom in order to make mindful decisions, stay true to what we believe and to take ownership of our lives. By being intentional with ourselves, we can address doubts, worries and fears constructively, so that we can learn from those experiences without allowing them to define us negatively.
Self-awareness gives us the power to be consciously intentional with our goals, relationships and all that life has in store for us!

Have you listened to this week's devotional call: Recipe for Achieving Your Goals: Commit to God Psalm, 37:5?
As we look to the Bible for guidance on how to achieve goals, we turn to Psalm 37:5 – “Commit your ways to the Lord; trust in Him, and He will act.” This verse speaks to us of our need for faith and devotion as we journey towards achieving our aims. As long as we make God an integral part of whatever goals we have, we can rely on His strength and wisdom given that His ways are higher than ours.

Gratitude is a powerful tool that allows us to fully appreciate the good parts of our lives and encourage further growth.
Taking time to reflect with gratitude can remind us of how lucky we are and what we have, and also give us motivation to carry forward with demanding tasks or times of self-reflection. Gratitude is an expression of appreciation for what has been given to help us along our life journeys, creating a sense of contentment within ourselves.
Being thankful for those moments allows us to recognize that although there could have been more bumps in the road, perhaps these weren’t meant for us so we need to be reflective through gratitude for all that we have already achieved.
How will you practice gratitude?

Our new podcast episode "Intention with Gratitude", with Dr. Earl Turner is now available!
In life we tend to forget to be grateful for the little things. During difficult times, we tend to overlook what really matters in life. Having a spirit of gratitude during good times and especially difficult times, will transform your life by allowing you to embody a greater perspective.
Gratitude is important and it’ll lift you up, even when you’re down. Research indicates that expressing both grief and gratitude are necessary for full emotional recovery.

Our spiritual blindness leads us to make poor life choices and become entangled in the anxieties of this world. We can't escape the darkness that envelops us, until we come to terms with our own inner struggles. In Isaiah 43:18-19, God calls on us to break through our spiritual blindness and recognize His comforting touch which whispers the truth of His power, guidance and presence.
This week's devotional call will help us to better comprehend the significance of spiritual blindness in order to make positive life changes now and into eternity. Take time to pause, pray, listen and reflect as we join together as a community in seeking understanding on why we're spiritually blind.
