TAKE CARE OF YOUR MENTAL HEALTH

One of my classmates stated she is going to speak on the topic of mental health for the course of  the term for our assignments. Her topic caught my attention and I can’t wait to see how her project unfolds. There is a stigma to mental health. We usually think of someone with psychological issues when we think of mental health. That is part of it but that is just the tip of the iceberg. A person who internalizes their feelings can experience depression and social issues.

Too many people are suffering in silence. Our neighbors, colleagues and even members at our church and our social media friends may not look like they are struggling because most people don’t post about their sadness and shame.

We have become good at hiding our suffering.

In vulnerable and authentic conversations, I hear people say…everyone seems to have it all together.

So, who do you talk to?

Some people don’t talk to their family members because they are part of the problem—they don’t share what’s going with someone in their church because everyone appears to have this perfect life.

Shame wins when you remain silent about your pain because of fear and judgement.

I want to inspire the courage to share your pain with someone who has wisdom and compassion. I do not want people to suffer in silence like I did during my teens and beyond. By reaching out and getting the right kind of support you can begin to heal.

It can be scary to reach out for help. Sometimes you don’t know who to trust or who to talk to. We need to cultivate in our community of faith permission to share struggles. The scripture says in James 5:16 therefore, openly acknowledge your sins to one another, and pray for each other, so that you may be healed (Complete Jewish Bible).

My challenge is for you is to reach out to someone—Whether it’s to show your care for someone or to reach out for your own help.

Never underestimate the power of a courageous act.

I would like to invite you to the Rock Church where the power of God will meet you right at the place of your need. Come experience our dynamic worship services Sundays @ 10 am and our miracle and empowerment service @ 6pm. We are located at 9321 Edgebrook Houston, TX 77075. Not in town?

MY EXPECTO PATRONUM

You are familiar with this word if you already watched the movie of Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix. In this movie, it is a magic spell or charm that Harry used when a Dementors (evil or darkness) would attacked him and it also illustrated as a magic light or can form any creatures that would fight against darkness.

Well, after I’ve watched the movie this word “Expecto Patronum” really sounds good into my ear and engraved down into my heart. Why? because when Harry explained, “Just remember the patronus will protect you as long as you are focus”.

On that time, there’s a thought that really came into my mind, “Just focus and turn on the light when you can only see is the darkness in your life”.

On the other hand, in times of trouble we forget to see the light because we focus on the problem, we keep on worrying, we keep sadness and sorrow drowns in and sometimes we keep on complaining. We choose to focus only the dark side and consciously by focusing on it, we are getting stressed and more depressed. Then, it will create a negative force. So, how can a light works if we keep on thinking those negative thoughts?, We keep the sadness and sorrow drowns into our heart?

Remember that the Patronus is comprised exclusively of positive feelings and cannot comprehend negative emotion. It is used to drive off darkness because once you are in sadness, anxiety or stress the Dementors (evil or darkness) will attack you easily and that’s how Patronus acts as shield of sorts as explained by Granger.

In addition, an article entitled The Patronus described the expecto patronum as a kind of positive force and it works something like a shield.

So, how can we conquer darkness if we drown our hearts with those negative emotions?

Furthermore, I have my own wand with a great power as Expecto Patronum.

Because I have my own battles too against darkness (pain, worry, sadness, etc.)

And my expecto patronum is JESUS CHRIST.

As it is written in 1 John 1:5 “THIS IS THE MESSAGE WHICH WE HAVE HEARD FROM HIM AND DECLARE TO YOU,THAT GOD IS LIGHT AND IN HIM IS NO DARKNESS AT ALL”

Jesus Christ is my light. He is my shield against darkness.

As similar with the expecto patronum , when it times of trouble need to focus only to HIM. In this past few weeks, I’ve encountered failure  because I did not focus onto His light. I’m just focusing in worries, troubles, sadness etc. All those negative thoughts really came into my mind.

But Thank God ,indeed His mercy is great than our sin. God is here always in my side (so to you too) His light never leaves behind my back. I did not see His lightness because I chose only the negative thoughts.

That’s how powerful my expecto patronum is.

Lastly, expecto patronum is a kind of positive force, and for the wizard who can conjure one, it works something like a shield, with the Dementor (evil or darkness). In order for it to work , you need to think of a memory. Not just a memory, a very happy memory, a very powerful memory. Allow to fill you up and let the expecto patronum reveals its power as reflects to your personality (The Patronus).

Moreover, my happy memory was how JESUS CHRIST captured my life and my heart (dated on July 12, 2015).

Therefore, Jesus is my light. He is my happy memory. He is my power. He is my shield. And He is my comforter when it comes with trouble. Hence, need to work more my salvation. And cultivate my faith to Him. Whatever the circumstances, need to stay focus on  HIM.

Added verse :

.Hearts of Human open before GOD.

Happy heart makes the face cheerful.

Cheerful heart has a continual feast.

Heart of the righteous studies how to answer.

Light of the eyes rejoices the heart.

and always remember,

that our hearts is the most important to GOD. (PSALM 19:14)”

MANAGE YOUR EMOTIONS AND ANGER WILL DISAPPEAR

Anger is like a ball of fire in your hands which is equally dangerous for one who holds and people around. We often see people love to judge others which is a sign of their anger emotions inside and releasing in the form of judgments. We called our self smart when it comes to time management proudly say about multi tasking but is it strength or weakness. When people do multi tasking which is again a signal that they have not managed their schedule properly for independent task and now doing everything together without realizing creating space inside for anger emotions. Now we are not discussing about multi tasking that was the example to relate emotions. What humans are doing these days to manage their emotions because once they develop the skill of emotion management they will see themselves in different state of mind altogether. Imagine skill is developed among all humans how to manage emotions then they can very easily resonate themselves with …How CEO thinks?/What is happiness?/Journey to unstoppable success?/How to use failures as a fuel to success journey? etc. Necessity of today’s era is to develop the skill of managing anger emotions….. Once you develop the skill you witness miracles in and around yourself….
