#6 Loving It moment: Living Less is Living More

#6 LIVING LESS is LIVING MORE


A quick glimpse of my own life choices- Grace Kostamo
I used to have less of things growing up. I remember thinking, " Would it be nice if we have this and that and those things?" At a young age I did not know any better. As growing up the more I was aware of my surroundings and observed more of what life is all about and  as I journey the quest of my own choices and the path I was on.
Many years have gone by, many years of countless questions that needed answers in this life, and many years of pain and hardship, and still find a glimpse of smile on our faces and hope for tomorrow will be different. Then finally as I went on to my journey and found hope and move on and choice a different path to live life truthfully with what we should be in the first place instead of complicate things in life.


I've had lived less to the extreme that I found life difficult. Less in a sense of less understanding, less knowledge, less educated, low self esteem, and I gave myself less chances of great opportunities. Then there was one powerful moment when I made a decision to be less negative in everything about I am and what I can do. I switched my thinking choices to living more in a sense of more understanding, more education, more knowledge, more love, more giving, more self build esteem, more growing and more learning. I find that living less of my negativity is like living more of what I should be in the first place. Once we point out what's gets in our way and deal with it than just ignoring it, we will discover more of what we can do instead of what we can not do. We will discover our strengths in our weaknesses if we are willing to awaken our human will and determination to work it out to the fullest until it becomes a lifestyle. Then the more opportunities pops up right in our faces to fulfill what we have come here for. When we dont work our dream, the dream becomes unstable. We team up with God who has given to us the dream which is better than our own dream and work thru his schedules, then the gifts of God thru us will start to show up.

I dreamt big since I was 6 yrs old and kept it as a secret and held onto it... I am 31 years old this year and I see myself walking the dream God has given me and still so many doors of gifts to open in that dream. I look forward to what God has for me when I open another door of gifts from above.

 When God gives you a dream, do not limit yourself in thinking of less understanding of how to use the dream well in your life. Use it well with greater understanding what you should do with it.
