My ABC’s
I… Day 9 My Definitions for verbs starting with I
I – Illuminate: brighten or provide with light; decorate with lights; clarify or make understandable; enlighten spiritually or intellectually; fame; I celebrate.
I – Illustrate: clarify (especially by use of examples); to make clear or reprehensible; to give honor to; to glorify.
I – Improve: become better; to increase or advance productivity, value or quality.
It’s my business to improve each day. An acronym developed by Anthony Robbins, is CANI standing for Constant And never-ending Improvement.
I – Instruct: to advise; to direct; to teach. Instructing excites me. I love to teach something that will help a friend, a stranger, or a child. I learn when I teach!
Reflections of the first “job” I did was to teach girls in our church to play chords by ear. I don’t remember exactly how much they paid, I think it was 50 cents. Soon, I put it together I should teach them as a group and still collect 50 cents each. It was a good business! As I recall, I was 13.
I – Implore: beg someone earnestly to do something. Implore is another exciting verb beginning with I.
I implore you to identify any strong holds that keep you from doing the desires of your heart. Give God control and he will make a way for you to achieve your goals. I am serious….do it and let me know the results!
I – Identify: It is my job and your job to identify truth in our life. Have you ever heard a story that made you angry, or disappointed with someone. I have. Worse, I reacted to the story as though it were true.
A lesson learned the hard way was it is better to be quiet and respond later than to react and be sorry. Identifying truth is still an ongoing project for me.
I – Identity: A close cousin to identifying lives identity. Making it personal, as a little girl, I was a child, and knew my place. Then, I grew up…and hey I was; an adult, a wife, a Mother, an Educator, a Real Estate Broker, and a business owner. Finally came the big Question. Who am I? I am no longer a wife, my parents are deceased so I am not their “little girl” Who am I? Did I ever belong to the woman who abandoned me? Did I belong to my adoptive parents? Do my adult children need me? Have I fulfilled my purpose?Oh, perhaps my grandchildren and close friends need me. Haha, it’s easy to let the mind play games.
I believe I know the answer and my purpose. You will know soon! For now,
Go Forth and Prosper,
Molinda Sue
