My Person in the Mirror
My Person in the Mirror
You see things; and you say "why?" But I dream of things that never were, and I say "why not?"
George Barnard Shaw-
Dear Family,
I write these words with the sheer hope that you become a better individual.
Remember how important you are and that you have something that no one in the world has - the ability to look in the mirror and see what the world cannot. Only you, the man reading this letter, only you can see and know who is looking back at you. Only you know what you are feeling and what you are thinking. And most importantly, only you can change what you feel and think. If your life is to change, it begins with you young brother, it begins with the person in the mirror.
As you stand there looking into the mirror at your own reflection, be honest with yourself. You must look past pride and common ignorance and humble yourself in order to be honest. Be grateful for the works that Jesus has done in your life, be thankful for the daily blessings that the Father has placed in your life. Know that God loves you and believes in you, for He created you. God placed you in your current situation to be a light in a dark place. So let your light shine for all to see. Never doubt yourself or underestimate the power of your own mind. In order to have power you must first understand who you are as a individual and your unique characteristics that attribute to who you are as a person. "Remember no one can make you feel inferior without your consent." - Eleanor Roosevelt
Believing that you are in control of your life, you are responsible for your decisions, feelings and circumstances. You have the power to close your mind to comments that tear you down and lower your self -imagery or reinforce negative thinking. Try opening your mind to the comments and feedback from others that build positive self- imagery in which will lead to positive thinking.

The Keys
“The Keys”
Each “key” is a point of growth in Jesus and the
“Ring” symbolizes the never-ending process of growth in Jesus.
Through Jesus I own the internal resources to bring
about positive change in my life.
Through Jesus my conscious thinking, I empower
myself to new positive possibilities.
Through Jesus I admit that I own my own the keys to
my own self-image and self- esteem.
Through Jesus I am aware of and constantly adjust my
self-talk to set myself up to win.
Through Jesus I can handle setbacks and short
comings gracefully, seeking prayer and fasting to empower myself to a positive
“Next Time”.
Through Jesus I accept and own the consequences of
my decisions and use Prayer to help me see and evaluate all consequences.
Through Jesus I have the power to unlock old belief
systems in Christ and design new ones that can help me win.
Through Jesus I accept my emotions as pleasant and
unpleasant and manage them in a safe, Healthy way.
Through Jesus I choose values and role models that
lead me toward my most noble self.
Through Jesus I prepare myself mentally and
spiritually for successful transitions and performances.
Through Jesus I set goals and use mental imagery to
power myself in to the future. By supporting others in their walk in Christ, I
reinforce my own cycle of success.
