I'm Rich

“I’m rich and getting richer. I’m generous and getting more generous. God’s abundance is supplying my every need. Everything I touch prospers and succeeds. New doors will open before me. The right people will walk into my life. God will prosper the work of my hands. As I use my core gifts to serve others, I will be richly rewarded.”

Bo advises us to say the above daily.

Happiness and Family

Happiness is . . . having a fun mom and fun sisters.

It's all about having a great family.

An Ocean of Miracles

Inspiring words from Bo Sanchez, motivational speaker, spiritual leader . . .

I’ve noticed something: The older I get, the more I believe in miracles. In fact, I believe I’m surrounded by an ocean of miracles.

Everyday, I see God-Coincidences. Divine Appointments. Supernatural Connections. Mysterious Surprises. Spontaneous Healings.

More and more, I believe in the unexplainable, beautiful, mystical work of God in our lives. That no matter how impossible the situation, I believe that God will make a way where there seems to be no way.

Yes, I believe in magic. I live in a magical universe! I believe that in every moment, God is performing miracles. In every moment, He is blessing you, healing you, touching you, and guiding you.

The past year, I saw a certain movement in my spirit. It was a gentle call from God to a deeper kind of trust. I saw myself walking to a new stage in my spiritual life. Today, I’m a mystic. Again. I’m back believing in miracles. Obviously, I never lost faith in miracles. But in a more profound way, I’m realizing that everything that I do is dependent on miracles.

How did this happen? I really have no choice: It’s the only way to keep my sanity.

As overall leader of Light of Jesus and our other ministries, I’m faced with gigantic problems every single day.

I do all I can. With the best of my abilities. But the problems are still there. So I reach this point where only God can solve the problems. I have only two options: To be stressed or to be blessed. Stress and trust cannot co-exist.If I’m stressed, then it means I don’t trust. If I trust, then I won’t be stressed. So I decide to trust.

And I like a child, I tell Him, “I’ve reached a point of incompetence. Lord, this is your problem. Give me a miracle.”

And He gives me a miracle! He actually comes in and performs a beautiful miracle right before my eyes.

Why I’m Relaxed

My wife says I’m always cool. No matter what happens. Let me tell you why. I believe that I live in a friendly universe. I live in a gracious galaxy. I live in a universe that is conspiring to bless me.

Every atom of God’s creation is strategizing how to prosper me, solve my problems, open new doors of opportunity, give me divine connections, supernatural appointments, send miracles on my path, heal me, make me stronger, increase my peace, increase my money, tighten my relationships with my family, give me more wisdom….

And problems? I believe that when a problem comes, it brings within it a beautiful solution. When a trial comes, it brings within it a treasure waiting to be unearthed. I just need to be open to it—and the miracle will come.

We live in a magical universe. I’m surrounded by an ocean of miracles.

But I’ve now learned that sometimes, God allows small problems to protect us from bigger problems. He allows us to lose a small amount, so that in the future, we won’t lose a bigger amount.

Even In Your Biggest Problems,

God Is Performing Miracles

Here’s what I learned in life: God’s size is flexible. Some worship a big God. Some worship a small God. It depends on your faith. Do you want to know the size of your God? Look at the size of your fears. If your fears are big, then it means your God is small. But if your fears are small, then it means your God is big.

Today, my fears are getting smaller and smaller, because my God is getting bigger and bigger.

Even In Your Biggest Problems,

God Is Performing Miracles

“This storm will end. Your miracle will come. What you wish for will be granted.”

You’re Surrounded By An Ocean Of Miracles

Perhaps right now, you too have experienced a loss. Perhaps you’re going through a heavy trial right now. And it seems like it’s an impossible situation. But in God’s vocabulary, there’s no such word as impossible. In God’s dictionary, the word “impossible” isn’t found. I have a simple message for you: Trust Him.

God will make a way where there seems to be no way. You’re surrounded by an ocean of miracles.

May your dreams come true,

Bo Sanchez

Worry Wart? Me?

" Don't worry about me, I'm just a worrier". My younger sister, Zinnia (a cute little worry wart), sent me a message on FB, and that's what it says.

Well, who isn't troubled nowadays, huh? Just try running down in your mind the things you should have done yesterday or a week ago, the things to do today and tomorrow and next week. You can actually feel a weight somewhere. Opening your mail and seeing unread messages that surely meant requested action and responses make a vein in your forehead twitch.

I just look around the house, at the stacked dirty dishes or the piled laundry or I just stand in front of my cabinet and that of my sons', surely that will make my head start to spin, and these are not even the big problems, just the usual daily challenges.

Don't be overwhelmed. A big NO to being frozen to inaction. Just tackle the tasks one at a time. Break-up the challenges to bite-size actions and celebrate little victories. These are things I tell myself.

This help me survive each hour, hahah.

At times, I even get worried when I have nothing to worry about. Crazy me.

Cynomolgus monkeys at the Batu Caves of Malaysia

When we visited Mamu, she's doing better after being confined for low WBC count as an effect of her chemo therapy. Her CBC result is okay now. Super! I do know how to count my blessings. It definitely feels good and with that comes thanksgiving.

My son got a card for Mamu. Written on the card that he chose were very inspirational words . . .

You've definitely got it, the deep-down strength it takes to make it through tough times, rough times, and all the "why me?" times . . . just believe in YOU.

So why worry, try kneeling down . . . still talking to myself.

Do Not Worry

"The Lord is teaching us not to over-worry about so many things," the priest was saying at church today.

Well, who has "zero" worry or problem, right? Each of us has a burden to carry but how each of us carry the burden is where the difference lies.


Some sayings that I practice (but struggles at times too, okay . . .)

Do not feed your fears.
Bo Sanchez

I've developed a new philosophy... I only dread one day at a time.
Charlie Brown (Charles Schulz)

The problem of life is to change worry into thinking and anxiety into creative action.
Harold Walker

More quotations on "worry, worry" . . .

If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself but to your own estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.

I've seen many troubles in my time, only half of which ever came true.

Matthew 6:31
So do not start worrying: Where will my food come from? or my drink? or my clothes? Your Father in heaven knows that you need these things. Instead be concerned above everything else with the Kingdom of God and with what He requires of you, and He will provide you with all these other things. So do not worry about tomorrow, it will have enough worries of its own. There is no need to add to the troubles each day brings.
