I Am No Fool (& neither are YOU)

Eva Lisle — Sat, 01 Apr 2017 19:39:42 +0000

It is April Fools Day and I want to declare in front of God and everybody that I am Eva and I am a FOOL for LOVE! (“Hi Eva!!” I hear my AA friends murmuring from the audience). I have not posted here for many months, which of course does not mean I haven’t been writing, extending love to my thoughts, life, schedule, and strengthening my own health. I was reminded via Facebook’s “On This Day” that…

A Course of Love

Eva Lisle — Wed, 23 Mar 2016 22:36:37 +0000

Late last year, smack dab in the middle of the wedding hubbub I came across a breathtaking spiritual text I couldn’t get enough of. It was as if I had found a new translation of the Bible, I had never dared believe existed. This text, these words, this book straight from the heart of Jesus into my own (bedraggled, exhausted, hurried) heart was indeed the salvation I had asked for.

Self Love Has The Greatest ROI

Eva Lisle — Thu, 10 Mar 2016 21:23:21 +0000

I am beginning to realize the many gifts of the wedding season of last year. Now that I have rested, regrouped and breathed deeply into this new year I can look back in great wonder. I was guided again and again into Self Love as the answer to my overwhelm, my tired, my juggling……..and it worked every time. The ROI (Return On Investment) of Self Love is surely more than 100% if that is even…

For The Love Of Twenty-Somethings

Eva Lisle — Mon, 22 Feb 2016 23:19:35 +0000

I have a secret. I adore twenty-somethings. I love that they don’t wear watches (why would you, the phone tells the time), make only soft plans (again because the phone is used as homing device for both time and space), and are following their hearts because they literally can’t do anything else. They have the world at their fingertips, are amazingly aware of the plights of others and don’t…

This is a love letter to you my precious Ones. Breathe in the truth about yourself today, the day we remind ourselves of Love in all forms.

A Mantra for One

Eva Lisle — Sat, 25 Jul 2015 02:01:45 +0000

My commitment to daily Twelvemonth postings concluded in April of this year and, not surprisingly, life has continued unabated to the point that I look back in utter wonder at my accomplishment of 365 days of daily blog postings. Here is what I am learning about myself three months out since that mammoth commitment of extending love to my fears, my self and my experience and blogging about this…

The Self Discipline of Desire

Eva Lisle — Thu, 16 Apr 2015 23:20:12 +0000

I was speaking to a friend recently who praised the self discipline of my having blogged daily for a year. I was a bit taken aback as it didn’t feel like self discipline at all. I write and extend love to my thoughts because I want to. Afterwards, this phrase floated into view: the self discipline of desire. I took it into my quiet time this morning to ask Holy Spirit more about this. Me…

But Not Without Self Love

Eva Lisle — Wed, 01 Apr 2015 21:28:02 +0000

It is dawning on me now, that self love is the big leagues in the game of Life and Love. We can love our children, our neighbor, the flag, our country, our spouse, our house. We can love chocolate, green grass, cherry pie, clean sheets and of course our dogs and cats (and gerbils, elephants and the snake that kitty keeps bringing into the house). But without self love the circle is not yet…

12. Day 30: Joy, It Takes A Little Longer

Eva Lisle — Mon, 30 Mar 2015 13:50:04 +0000

“Today is a stepping stone in the discovery of who I am and what brings me joy.”——March 30 (from my daily affirmations calendar from Louise Hay, given to each of us at the Writers Conference last week). This quote is perfect for me as I finish up my Twelvemonth and actually not a bad way to look at each and every day now that I think about it. How lovely would it be to look at each new day…

12. Day 21: Heaven On Earth

Eva Lisle — Sat, 21 Mar 2015 12:40:30 +0000

I notice that I use the words thoughts and feelings interchangeably. Are they the same thing in a different forms? HS: Dearest One, Feelings are often thoughts you can’t hear or don’t/wont notice. A feeling will alert you to awareness, the thought can then form more fully and translate into words of guidance, actions or stand-stillness. Feelings, then, are pre-thought.
